    Top Contenders in 1A?

    Altavista had a solid group that had been starting since they were freshmen/sophomores. Lose a lot. On O, they graduated their rb, hb, both TE’s, and 5/6 of their top OL. On D they probably return more with a good defensive backfield coming back, but will graduate those 2 DE’s and their...

    King George Hire

    I think for the Wallace and Buckingham situation it was just a bad fit at the wrong time type of thing. Gotta remember Buckingham was coming off their 20 year legend Craig Gill retiring in May and passing away in July. When Wallace came on, I think one guy stayed on staff from the previous...

    New VHSL Rule

    From what I’m reading that’s the punishment for a transfer that doesn’t meet the criteria. The big one being your whole family needs to move and vacate your house in the previous district. (And cannot be renting it out to any family member) My question is what happens with parents who divorce...

    My opinion on these state games

    Im gonna go out on a limb and say after Tuesday’s incidents, that some of the “viral movements” and bad press the VHSL is going through would have been prevented. Maybe I’m mistaken on that one but at the very least, something like the Va High incident could be prevented. Maybe not the...

    Region B Boys Championship: Franklin 67 Altavista 56 Final

    Went and took a look back at their schedule and you are correct that schedule was extremely stout! Think this was Altavista’s second loss to a 1A school all year themselves, coming out of a tough Dogwood District that have 5 out of 7 teams advance to the “Sweet Sixteen” or regional semis of...

    UPSET in Region B Boys: #8 William Campbell 59 #1 Cumberland 56

    Dogwood has been crazy this year! Most teams having elite height (6’6”-6’7”). I’d argue Gretna, Nelson, or Dan River could win region 2C. Add into that Altavista (always dangerous) a competitive Appomattox and then Chatham has one of the best players in the area in Amare Word. Dogwood...

    Question for ADs

    I don’t have a lot of figures but had a buddy who used to be a middle school AD and work closely with their high school AD. He said putting on MS games was like taking a money bath, and talking to the HS AD, if they could make $400 at a ms basketball or baseball game that would be just enough...

    Congrats to Essex on the big win over the "fav" Altavista

    Was one of those games I’d argue did not feel as close as the score indicated. That final minute of the first half really swung momentum where I thought Essex would be in trouble for the second half, but they responded

    State Runs through Altavista

    I’m really intrigued what final stats were for the game? Didn’t @Lakelife say 300 yards rushing or was that another poster? Essex defense did a good job to keep the attack very limited. I’d be interested to see what each team’s yards were

    Preseason Class 3 Boys Hoops Top 10

    Morrison for Tunstall transferred to GW I believe. His dad is the new head coach meaning Tunstall has a new coach

    State Semifinal Matchups

    Altavista was junior heavy last year. Senior heavy this year. Big losses for them imo were Pippen (QB) and Farmer (think he was 8?) Lb/H-Back. Otherwise they returned or improved just about everywhere else and their QB who is a sophomore is able to pull the read. Will be interesting, and...
