Beamerball 566 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2018 What is the anticipated attendance? Is there a place big enough? Dante Lee @GWHSPrincipal VHSL will be pressed to make a tough decision on the venue of the Final 4 in 2A with Gate City playing. The VHSL guidelines state: seating to accommodate anticipated attendance. If Graham wins is Tazewell Middle School that site? Don’t think it holds as many as the Dedmond Ctr! 10:08 AM · Mar 3, 2018 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure the Armory can hold enough people, either. According to Mercer County's website, it holds 3,500. That's almost assuredly not enough.

Ryan4VT 4,550 Report Share Posted March 4, 2018 2 minutes ago, Jason said: Virginia Tech? That would be my solution. Holds 9,275. But over on Preps I've been lambasted as being "entitled" because I think they should play it in an arena that can actually hold enough people that they won't have to bar the doors.

BearDawg 105 Report Share Posted March 4, 2018 It’s the VHSL. I get that graham plays their football games in WV due to that being their home field. But they are having to pick a site now. This is the Virginia state playoffs. Keep it here in Virginia. Wv has their playoffs. Radford college sold out. Most small colleges will fill up. VT would be cool. Vhsl is too worried about losing a buck. Uva wise held pretty good but favors gc more location wise. Prolly suite gc not to play there again based on their shooting. I look for gc to lay wood to graham this time though. Regardless the winner, I’ll cheer them on in the title game! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're the person that said McClung could sit and GC would still walk through the Region D, and now you're saying GC will probably lay the wood to Graham in the rematch. If Graham wins the rematch, man do I feel sorry for you cause the Graham faithful will troll the crap outta you! Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
