While Beddingfield was denied its second N.C. High School Athletic Association 3-A girls basketball championship Saturday, it wasn't all doom and gloom for the Eastern Carolina Conference.
Following the Lady Bruins' 77-62 loss to Concord in Chapel Hill, Kinston nipped Trinity 60-58 to win their first state title since 1965. Senior Bo Ingram was named championship MVP for the Vikings, who lost in the finals to Concord last year. Congratulations to Wells Gulledge and his players for an outstanding season.
