I was at the D6 state championship games in 1992 and 1993 with Shayne Graham's uncle. He was the plant manager of the glass/mirror plant in Galax where I worked every afternoon all through high school. Pulaski beat Thomas Dale in 1992 to win the state championship 35-20 in something of an upset. Ken Oxendine was Dale's superstar. Ox had a very good game if memory serves but Pulaski played a solid game. Pulaski lost to EC Glass and Salem early in the 1992 season. They beat James Robinson 12-10 on four Shayne Graham field goals in the state semifinals that year. If memory serves, Dale had throttled everyone all season and was ranked in the USA Today pole before Pulaski beat them. Which likely led to Pulaski's ranking going into the 1993 season. Annandale beat Thomas Dale in the semifinals and Pulaski in the finals the following season and would win 26 consecutive games along with the 1993 and 1994 state titles. I remember those Annandale teams being very balanced and almost impossible to score on. Seems like they only allowed a shade under 200 points for the entire 1993 and 1994 seasons. And that includes giving up 41 points to GW Danville in the 1994 state championship game. No high-end D1 talent on those two Annandale teams but 20+ players going on to play at places like Georgetown, Towson, Bowie State and Howard if I remember correctly.

As long as the kids get a chance to play this year with all this mess going around. Pray for all county teams
