Road Trips - Next Two Weekends!

Charleston
The TarWheels head to Charleston, SC for our games against the North Charleston Hurricanes on the 28th! Our very first games of the year were at home against The Hurricanes, but in a previous Charleston tournament attended (and won!) by The TarWheels, our two teams never had to match up. These games are important, and will count towards our conference record and can help to cement our position as the top seed for the conference championships which are fast approaching.

Lexington
A short turn around time, and Thursday we leave out to Lexington, KY! For the 34th year, Lexington is hosting the Bluegrass Invitational! The tournament is held at UK, in the Seaton Center and draws great teams from across the nation! We are looking forwards to this tournament, as it will be filled with extreme competition, and help to prepare us for the National Tournamet. ...A true test for how far the TarWheels have come so far this season, and an opportunity to take and apply our experiences throughout the season's remainder!

#1 IN THE NATION!!!

That's right! The D3 rankings are out for the first time this season and sitting on top are The Carolina TarWheels! This is the TarWheels 3rd season in existance since Coach Donnie Langford organized the team. It has been with great dedication, hard work, an awesome team, and great coaching, that we have been able to inch our way up in the rankings in each of those three years.

Now, all we need to do is raise the money to make it to nationals! Nationals are being held in Colorado Springs, Colorado. As you can imagine, flying 10 people, luggage cost with our equipment, car rentals, hotel costs, tournament entry fees, etc. add up fast! PLEASE if you can, take the time to Donate today! We are several thousand dollars away from our goal, but even if it's a small donation, THEY ALL ADD UP! We are very proud of our very large fan base, help send The TarWheels to nationals so that you can be even more proud of us!

Remember to keep up with our season's scores, schedule, and stats via our "Schedule" tab. This also has locations mapped out if you'd like to join us at any of our games.


Thank you all for your support!

A sleigh full of wins while in Richmond

The TarWheels took to the road once again over the weekend. The results, the same type as the TarWheels are becoming accustom to this season! The Richmond December Invitational Tournament played host to five division three teams. The TarWheels came out on top in each of the four games on Saturday, and so were seeded 1st for the championship game on Sunday. The Flyers played a hard fought game on Sunday, but The TarWheels pulled away in the second half of the game. Special thanks to all of our sponsors, and very special thanks to the Bradley's for inviting us into their home and having us for dinner upon arriving into Richmond, and for coming out to cheer us on! Check out all of the scores along with the all of the team's events listed on the "Schedule" tab.

For now, The TarWheels have a bit of a break over Christmas. January, we'll be back at it with trips to Charleston and Augusta for conference games. Also, the site and date for the National Tournament was announced over the weekend. The tournament is to be held in Colorado Springs, CO on March 22-25. The TarWheels hope to represent Concord in March. If you or your business are able to help support the 22-0(22-1) TarWheels goal to attend this tournament, please donate or let us know today! Thanks to all, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
