    The excitement is building. The Tournament of Champions is five weeks away and the buzz is building in Brunswick County. This is the sixth year of the TOC, and I’m proud to say that the idea for a countywide tournament came right from our champions in 2003.

    BOILING SPRING LAKES—When the West Brunswick Trojan and South Brunswick Cougar junior varsity football teams played Sept. 3, the Trojans held off a Cougar comeback for a 26-22 victory. That meeting seemed like a defensive struggle compared to what happened Sept. 24 in Boiling Spring Lakes.
