One of the largest rivalries in North Carolina, the Page High School Pirates look to continue their winning streak over the Grimsley High School Whirlies after handily beating the Whirlies 42-0 in 2017. Both sides of the field bring potential future DI athletes who are committed to big names like Virginia Tech and Old Dominion University, so anticipate a fast paced and intense ball game from both sides.
