    Visiting Teams Dominate Shenandoah Schedule Including Big Bison Win

    Home teams are supposed to treat their fans to big victories but that has not exactly been the case this season in Shenandoah District action. I don't have the precise figures but there have been a number of teams that have won on the road this season, including this past Friday night when the...

    Strong Third Quarter Keys Riverheads Past Fort Defiance

    The Riverheads Gladiators finally broke their four-game pattern of one-score games as they came out strong in the second half and pulled away from the homestanding Fort Defiance Indians. RHS had split those four tight games, but after tonight's 41-21 road win, they are well on their way to a...

    Unbeaten Riverheads JVs Stun Fort Defiance on Final Play

    There were fat ladies that spent the entire game warming up on both sides of the field tonight in Greenville ready to let her rip. But the one that got to hit the final climactic high note was wearing all red as the Gladiators pulled out an absolutely miraculous comeback to stun the visiting...

    So........The Shenandoah District Could Really Be Settled This Week, Huh?

    Well, maybe but I still have my doubts. Yes, we are down to just two unbeatens now, and yes those two (Alleghany and Buffalo Gap) will collide in Covington this Friday night, which will mean that only one team will still be unbeaten in district play. But I still think the district is too...

    Riverheads JVs Still Unbeaten After Page Win

    The Gladiator JVs got their usual solid running game tonight out of a quartet of backs and built a four-touchdown lead by early in the third quarter, then let the subs finish out the night, resulting in a 28-18 final score. As you can see, the visiting Panthers kept fighting, but the game was...

    Shenandoah District Halfway Point.......Whoyagot?

    Although some teams have only played four games because they have already had their bye week, most of the Shenandoah District teams are at the exact halfway point of their season. There are still three teams unbeaten in league play but that will change this week when two of them meet head-on...

    Riverheads Rallies Past, Then Holds Off Wilson 29-24

    These two schools have had their share of slobberknockers over the years, so there was no reason for tonight to be any different. The game was especially meaningful because each team came into the evening with two straight losses and neither wanted that third loss on their record. Each had also...

    Gladiator Youngsters Sweep Wilson in Wednesday Night Action

    It was certainly not a pleasant night to be out but the energetic group of Riverheads fans that made the trip to Wilson tonight were rewarded for their dedication as the Big Red swept both the Middle School and JV games from the home team Hornets. The Middle Schoolers took charge early and were...

    Shenandoah Unbeatens Down to Just Three

    After just two weeks of district action, and only one for a couple of the teams, we already see some separation. Buffalo Gap and Stuarts Draft are each 2-0 in district play, with Alleghany now 1-0. The other six teams all have at least one loss within the district. It is of course too early to...

    Bison Edge Riverheads on Fourth-Quarter TD

    I can understand Gladfan's frustration because the Bison most definitely did manhandle the RHS running game. Therefore the Gladiators only moved the ball when they thought outside the box and caught the defense a little bit off guard. To put the best possible spin on the Big Red's two losses...

    Bison Edge Riverheads on Fourth-Quarter TD

    For a game that only had one score, tonight's RHS/BG tussle had more plot twists than a Hitchcock movie. The homestanding Bison finally won 7-0 but not before Riverheads drove inside the five-yard line, not once but twice. But the home team came up with the big defensive stop both times, which...

    Riverheads Rolls Over Bison JVs.

    Although it was pouring the rain most places this afternoon and evening, it was bone dry and very pleasant in Greenville, allowing county rivals Buffalo Gap and Riverheads a perfect night to match their Middle School and JV teams. In a pair of games somewhat similar to RHS' trip to Stuarts...

    Shenandoah Standings Scrambled So Soon!

    In the always wild and crazy Shenandoah District, it only took the first night of district play to raise some eyebrows and cast some doubt about who has what this season. Needless to say, Buffalo Gap's win at Wilson was the biggest surprise, with Stuarts Draft's last-second win at Riverheads a...

    Stuarts Draft Squeezes Past Riverheads in Latest Classic

    If you like nip and tuck football with lots of momentum swings, Greenville was the place to be tonight as the visiting Cougars scored the winning touchdown with just 19 seconds left on the clock to beat Riverheads 28-24. Prior to that, RHS had twice rallied from behind to take leads and had the...

    Riverheads and Stuarts Draft Trade Thursday Night Shut Outs

    Despite those rapidly rising gas prices and a small threat of rain, a respectable crowd showed up on both sides tonight at Stuarts Draft for the first Middle School/JV doubleheader of the season between these two. The homestanding Cougars picked up where they left off last year and won the...
