I SPORTING SCENF Local High School Girls Making History In Hoops West Brunswick versus South Brunswick. The cross-county rivalry has been brewing for years on the local high school sporting scene. The Trojans and Cougars have waged w ar in football, basketball, base ball, tennis and even soccer tins past ' fall. Never before, though, have the two county schools been so competi tive in girls' basketball. After tying for second place in the Waceamaw 2-A Conference last year, the Lady Cougars and l.adv Trojans have dominated the league this season. South Brunswick entered this , week's play sporting an unblemished 12-0 conference record. West Brunswick carried a 10-2 conference mark into the final week of the regular season. South Brunswick was leading the conference, while the Lady Trojans were lied with Whiteville for second place in the league. The final standings arc still up in the air. But South Brunswick's girls certainly have the inside track to the conference championship. The l-ady Cougars will have to go through the Waccamaw's best this week to finish the regular season at 14-0. They had a Tuesday night date with the Lady Woifpack in Wniieviiic and will finish the league slate with a home game against West Brunswick Friday. Local high school girls' basketball has come a long way the last couple of years with Mike Iscnbcrg coaching at South Brunswick and Brenda Council at the West Brunswick helm. Just two short seasons ago, the Lady Trojans were 7-7 and South Brunswick finished with a 4-10 confcrcnce record. The two county teams won just live league games between them in 1989. On Friday night, they'll baule for the county championship and possi bly much more. For South Brunswick, a perfect season or the conference ti tle will be on the line. South Brunswick's gym will undoubtedly be packed tomorrow night when the potent Cougars face the struggling Trojans in boys' basketball. But most tans will miss the best game of the night if they don't get to the gym early to sec the girls play. Shrine Bowl Sticks Shrine Bowl officials decided last week to stick with the traditional date for the annual all-star football game between high school seniors from North and South Carolina. South Carolina's High School Football Coaches Association had asked that the date be changed from the second weekend in December to the third weekend for two reasons. First of all, the coaches wanted it changed because North Carolina holds its lour state championship games the second weekend in December. That usually means that some of the lop Tarheel seniors don't get to showcase their talents in the Shrine Bowl. West Brunswick's Jimmy Grissett, for instance, turned down his Shrine Bowl invitation last year in order to play with the Trojans in ihe state 2-A title game. South Carolina coachcs also wanted the Shrine Bowl dale changed so they could hold iheir annual North-South All-Star Game in Myrtle Beach the second weekend in December. Ihe request for the new dale was turned down, which apparently suits most North Carolina coachcs just line. The N.C. High Schix>l Fool ball Coachcs Association hail asked thai the Shrine Bowl stick with the tradi tional date. Ihey apparently feel that adding yet another week to an already lengthy lootball season would do more harm than good.
