Eastern Randolph falls to Murphy in football state playoffs

Randolph RecordSports,
RAMSEUR — All season it was Eastern Randolph that captured momentum and carried that to football victory after victory.   But that wasn’t the case in the third round of the Class 1-A state playoffs. It was Murphy that built on its success and abruptly ended the Wildcats’ season. “We didn’t play our best,” Eastern Randolph coach Burton Cates said. “Needless to say, it just was not our night.” So Eastern Randolph, which was the No. 1 seed in the West Region, tumbled by a 64-31 score to ninth-seeded Murphy, which is the reigning state champion.

HARSANYI: Democrats have only themselves to blame for the inflation fiasco

David HarsanyiOpinions,
It’s been quite a spectacle watching people who credit Democrats with every job created and every percentage point gained in economic growth suddenly arguing that the White House is completely powerless in the face of our current economic predicament. Presidents generally get far too much credit and/or blame for our fortunes, but they can certainly exacerbate existing problems. And our political class has certainly aggravated them with unbridled spending and support for policies that disincentivize work and inhibit energy production. Wholesale prices rose 8.6% from a year ago in October, another record annual gain and the biggest spike in more…

HUDSON: They fought for us; let’s fight for them

Rep. Richard HudsonOpinions, ,
Just before Veterans Day in 1983, President Ronald Reagan said, “Veterans know better than anyone else the price of freedom, for they’ve suffered the scars of war. We can offer them no better tribute than to protect what they have won for us.” On Veterans Day, we honor the best our nation has to offer. We honor those who served to keep America safe in times of peril. And we honor their families who have shared in their sacrifices. Without our nation’s veterans, we would not have the America we enjoy today. I can never thank them enough for their…
