This fall, HighSchoolOT is providing a play-by-play broadcast of a top game in North Carolina each Friday.

HighSchoolOT’s award-winning journalist J. Mike Blake will be on the call. Blake will provide live analysis with his unique brand of historical knowledge.

Our week five Game of the Week live stream will showcase latest entry in the classic ENC rivalry between Craven County rivals New Bern and Havelock.

The broadcast will start at 7:00 p.m.

Along with our Game of the Week broadcast, HighSchoolOT will continue to have the most up-to-the-minute scores from across North Carolina. Access our live scoreboard here:

New Bern last appeared in a state championship in 2022 and Havelock last appeared in a state championship in 2021. This year’s New Bern team is 3-1 and Havelock is 3-0. New Bern’s only loss came in a 28-27 overtime game on the road at Northern Guilford. Havelock is ranked as the No. 10 team in North Carolina in the HSOT Statewide Top 25. The Rams are led by South Carolina edge rusher commit Donovan Darden, East Carolina wide receiver commit Johnny Wilson, and NC Central running back commit LeBron Sharpe.

Last year, New Bern defeated Havelock in a 15-14 thriller before ultimately having to forfeit the contest later in the season.

In addition to the Game of the Week broadcast, HighSchoolOT will have plenty of other high school football coverage from across the state.
