    Congrats Gate City. Virginia Tech, major mistake in my opinion

    Didn't realized Johnson was from South Hill. I was fortunate to see OHA play twice this year. Very good player.....should have signed with Carolina :)

    Dunk by McClung on Ridgeview. You have got to see it. Between the legs.

    I've seen a lot of dunks at the high school level over the years and this one tops them all. To do it in a game and pull it off is amazing.

    Who's the favorites in 2017?

    Blacksburg may be good next year but they are moving to 4A.

    How Disrespectful can Some TeamsBe

    Noise is noise. Cow bells, fans yelling and noise makers are used on a regular basis....I personally don't have an issue with the band playing as there are already distractions.

    Is Rustburg front runner in 3A to take title

    Abingdon beat Rustburg and Northside last year in the first 2 rounds of the playoffs. They lost to Botetourt in a very competitive game so I wouldn't say that they lost fairly quickly. As to the schedule, the nearest 3A opponent for Abingdon is Blacksburg and Christiansburg who both 90 miles...

    Thank You Richlands!

    I know they are joke accounts but I really believe that I know one of the writers....never confirmed by the person but I have my reasons for thinking that I've picked out one of them. LOL

    Thank You Richlands!

    Did Falconman and South Bound get banned too? Haven't seem them on SWVA forum in a while :) I do run into Southy once in a while (I'm pretty sure I know his real identity) LOL

    Your favorite team?

    Emory & Henry and Tar Heels! Panthers since they received the franchise in Charlotte. Keep Pounding!

    Coaches that leave the dogs in...

    I will attest to the recreation program (we also had a good youth basketball program as well) and the weight room. As an 8th grader, an activity bus took us from the junior high school to the high school to lift in the Spring. As to the rule, here is the gist of it. There were 10 teams in the...

    Coaches that leave the dogs in...

    I indeed have Carter's book. I played on Martinsville's 8th grade team in 78. The 8th grade and jv teams chose not to play Piedmont District schools (Patrick County was the exception for the 8th grade team) during this time. Our 8th grade team played a schedule that was highly unusual as a...

    Where you gonna be Friday night?

    You've at least got me thinking about it :) If I could leave work 15 minutes early, I might just go.....I don't guess they would consider a 7.30 start time to help me would they :) LOL

    Where you gonna be Friday night?

    I will be at Abingdon who hosts Christiansburg on Friday. I would love to travel to see the Richlands vs. Graham game being played on Thursday night. Problem is that I have to work until 5 and I'm not sure that I could get there before game time. I work in Bristol...would love to catch that...

    Coaches that leave the dogs in...

    There has only been 1 time that I've supported an intentional beat down and even then had mixed feelings about it. I think the year was 1980 and Martinsville beat Tunstall 80-0. This was Martinsville's first year "back" into the Piedmont District after effectively being kicked out of the...

    Richlands @ Graham

    Just commenting on my feeling about Cousin. He was by far, the best running back I saw last year (in person). My opinion is that he would at least get some D1 interest. I saw Nikki Fisher of Martinsville play several times and Cousin reminds me of him.....maybe not quite as fast in a straight...

    Best athlete you've seen on the football field

    Dennis Mahan of Martinsville in 75 and 76 is the best I've ever seen. Even though I was only 10 and 11 at the time, I can still remember some of the spectacular things I saw from him. Tim Goad of Patrick County was a special athlete. Nikki Fisher and Shawn Moore of Martinsville were also...
