    Region 5B In Fall of 2021

    Yes, they are losing money by running too many playoffs (the gates are paying for it).

    Interesting article by the RTD about transfers in HSFB

    I really don't mind kids transferring. I just the VHSL would revisit the rules so that it wasn't such a land mine for families to negotiate. I think the current rules encourage sneakiness more than discourage transferring.

    Officiating statewide

    I don't know why anyone is willing to do it. I know high school rules, but there is no way I would go do the training, pay the money for uniforms, etc. and then get yelled at for my time. It just isn't worth it. We've always given officials a hard time over the years, but I felt like when I was...

    Hey, don't out-coach yourself. You've got the better team and the better athletes then keep it simple.

    Manchester @ Ocean Lakes Thoughts on this semi??

    So you're saying Manchester is big, strong, fast and deep. Sounds good.

    Eastern View @ Louisa.... It's about time this happened......

    According to kids I know who played both teams, Eastern View is tougher. We'll see.

    How 'bout them Flyin' Flucos?!

    They finally went down in a game they should have won. NEVER punt the football. Albemarle wins 14-13 on a punt return TD.

    Stone Bridge....

    I agree, somebody from up there will show up to play Highland Springs. There are very good teams up there and I am surprised no one had pulled off a title in the last five seasons. That being said. Springers are better than ever this year. Good luck to whoever has to play them.

    VHSL Reference Poll (Fantasy Game) Highland Springs vs Westfield

    They did the same thing to L.C. Bird when they were stacked. The people who do the National rankings either don't know what they're doing, are biased or have some ulterior motives. Private schools probably grease their palms in some way or another.

    VHSL Executive Committee Changes

    Pre 1970 (no playoffs of any kind for the vast majority of the time). There Group I, Group 2 and Group 3 schools. When the modern playoff era began there were three classes in all sports. A (1-500 students) AA (501-1000 students) AAA (1001 or more students) Eventually enrollements began...
