GREENSBORO — It’s on to the next level tonight for Dorian Belcher and R.J. Quick, the area’s two East-West All-Stars football representatives.
Quick and Belcher took a break from their two-a-day training regimen Tuesday afternoon to discuss tonight’s game at Greensboro Grimley High School (8 p.m.). The words “fun” and “challenge” dominated the discussion.
Quick, a 5-9, 165-pound receiver from Chapel Hill High School, said he has been getting a crash course in college football since arriving in Greensboro over the weekend.
“It’s been hard every day,” said Quick, who eventually will play at Winston-Salem State but only after a stopover at Louisburg College to improve his academic standing. “Two two-hour practices a day, every day, sun or no sun, rain whatever.”
Belcher, a Southern High product who already stands No. 2 on the N.C. A&T depth chart at quarterback entering preseason drills, said his all-star experience has been mitigated by the Aggies’ off-season conditioning program.
Belcher is one of three freshman quarterbacks on N.C. A&T’s roster and the only QB in front of him is the senior starter, according to the Aggies’ preseason depth chart.
