Game site changed

The Eastern Wayne-South Central varsity baseball contest slated for today in Winterville has been moved to Eastern Wayne.

First pitch is 5 p.m.

It is the season opener for the Warriors, who advanced to the N.C. High School Athletic Association 3-A championship series a year ago. Just two starters graduated off that team, which also won the Eastern Carolina Conference regular-season and tournament crowns.

The junior varsity game will not be played.
