We went through the entries to find the top 50 boys that are entered at Foot Locker South tomorrow. North Carolina sees a good amount in the top 50. John Tatter (R.J. Reynolds), David Melville (Northern Guilford), Cameron Ponder (Mount Tabor), Coleman Mitchell (Cary Academy), Ben Mitchell (Forsyth Country Day), Laderique McNeill (Harnett Central) and Jamie Witmer (Hoggard) all rank within the top 50 boys entered tomorrow.
