Football Alleghany at Starmount

I personally thought West Wilkes would win. It didn’t surprise me.
It should be an interesting night in Boonville on Friday.

I definitely can’t say that i did. I was definitely drinkin the Dub-C kool-aid. But could it be a wake up call for WC… like the loss was for Starmount at WW last year?
Better than Mt Airy? I know Alleghany will be good but I would be surprised if they're better than Mt Airy.
I would have to agree with your question. Alleghany may have a lofty RPI thus far, but the Trojans have played a weaker schedule thus far compared to Mt. Airy, only exception being and beating North Surry, which has beaten West Wilkes. I don’t consider Winston-Salem Prep and Independence VA very competitive in football. My Airy on the other hand has been tested by Starmount, Jefferson VA, and Watauga.
I hope the game of thus far unbeaten Rams and Trojans on Friday is a good one. According to Deana’s pregame show, Alleghany has only won against Starmount once in the history of the series.
Starmount needs to take care of business. A loss could put them in a position to be on the road in the playoffs. Don't need a repeat of that disaster again.
The Rams can do it, just no bone-headed penalties or mistakes! They held the Buckin Elks to just 3 first downs for the entire game Friday night, one was a gift due to penalty.
Why do you say that? There looks to be a lot of upperclassmen on that Trojan roster.
We are good we are just not beat starmount good in my opinion. We do have upperclassmen but we also graduates alot as well. Who knows any given Friday. The fact we didn't blow out WSP this year is the main reason for my doubt in this game.
Looking back at last year this game was a close one. But Alleghany will be up against a very different Starmount team this year. Last year that was the old OC calling that game for Starmount and they struggled. Not taking anything away from Alleghany they are always one of the most physical teams. But, with the offense that Starmount has now give me the rams by 21pts.
Not the game I expected. The Trojans looked like a team with some potency by answering with a quick score on its first drive early. The QB has ability to pass and had good coverage. But the Rams revved it up and it became a runaway train. The fans showed on both sides….it was a packed house …. and the energy level was there. The football fans behind me were from other schools. All I can say is East Wilkes better be ready next Friday, after what happened in Millers Creek last night. And I hope there is a place to sit in Ronda after a long drive up from Charlotte!

The Rams had 504 total yards and just simply looked very impressive. Hardly any penalties for the Rams. Big statement win!
Save ya money next week. Listen on the radio. Starmount by as much as they want.
I don't think Alleghany had any turnovers in the game. And Starmount had only 1 turnover. If i am not mistaken.
I don’t think so. I said before season started West would give us a fit and I still fully expect AT BEST a 6-4 season.
Hi Deana,
Do you have any numbers from last night to share? K Propst was lights out….had to have close to 200 yards rushing. He is a beast on both sides of the line. It has been fun watching these kids step up and mature.
Even Deuce Best compared to three years ago subbing under Luke Collins. I thought Collins had an arm, but Deuce is there, and he is amazing running it or eluding the rush.
And what can you say about junior Ryley Rodriguez? He is impressive all over the field ….tackling, punting, kicking, receiving 40-50 yd passes from Deuce, and now quarterbacking the last two games in the second half! The true athlete.

Just posted stats and my football show on Facebook.
Keyvon had 138 yards and 6 carries with 2 touchdowns.

I foresee that any team with a hard nosed physical running back is gonna give East Wilkes fits.
For sure. I wouldn’t be surprised at all if EW didn’t finish 4-6.
That would be potential losses to Starmount… Wilkes Central… and Alleghany. Potential wins against Elkin and Ashe County. Definitely not far fetched at all.
I did not expect this score. Starmount just has so many weapons. They spread it around last year but this is just a different level this year. They looked like a team on a mission last night. Much improved from the first game of the season. Well done
