Big game tonight in Tappahannock between Washington & Lee and Essex. I believe these two teams are tied in the standings so this game is crucial for both teams.

Does W and L still support its team so well? I remember it just like it was yesterday when my Riverheads team traveled down to King William to play W and L in a state quarter-final game in 2004. We brought a decent enough crowd, considering the distance, and we did the best we could to make our share of racket, but their crowd that night was the largest and loudest I have ever heard at a high school game. To this day, that remains the best high school game I have ever seen in my life.

The Madison crowds a few years later, when they were on their state title march, "might" have topped W and L's, but it would be a close fight.

Fans around the nnk tend to support basketball more than football. I've been to some games this year where you can hardly hear yourself think its so loud. I am expecting tonight to be a packed house.

I was at that W&L and Riverheads game in 04. One of the best games I've ever seen in person. Can't remember their names now but I remember Riverheads had two big guys who went onto play in college. One of em was a 6'6 point guard. Classic game that Riverheads won and ended up losing in the state title game to Altavista if I'm not mistaken
