Radford has Blacksburg and Giles has Bluefield. Those are the ones that I know of

Thanks for the support.  We love our friends from Richlands.  You guys had a good year.  Hopefully we can beat Riverheads and move on.

Thanks guys means a lot if the shoe was on the other foot I wld he saying the same thing. An I have a feeling that both of you guys teams in the near future will get there.

I'll 2nd that redtiger !  Hope to see you all win !  I would love to be able to make a trip to Salem to watch a team from SWVA win another state championship !

Man I HATE to lose! That being said.....it was a great game. A whole lot could be said about a lot of things but plain and simple was.... we never made the plays when it counted. They had several opportunities to put it away in the first half and we had many chances to put them away in the second half. I am very proud of the boys and all the GREAT fans we have. What a game and atmosphere for High School Football.
 
Appomattox has a great team no doubt about it. We had a team capable of moving on but just didn't execute what was needed to beat an excellent opponent. I hate it so bad for the seniors especially. Somebody has to lose and that was us this time. A lot of the seniors on this years team will be talked about for years to come. The little boys in the youth league and up to eighth grade will grow up saying.....I want to be like such and such or say......I want to play like him. They were great role models all season for those little guys. They performed community service and spent many hours over at the elementary and middle Schools talking with them. Just a wonderful group of young men that I have enjoyed so much being around and watching play .
 
Our season is over but most of us Richlands fans will be pulling hard for Union and George Wythe. Hope you guys can when two more. If you make it to Salem....there will be a lot of us fans in Salem pulling for you guys.
 
Good luck

The game is set for Saturday at 2:00

I think Rural Retreat may just win that game.  They're a solid football team.

I just got back from the trip I had to make to Alabama for the funeral of my close family member and i just wanted to thank all of you that kept us in your thoughts & prayers and for all well wishes I got on here.  I know this has nothing to do with football,  but I just wanted to thank you all !
Good luck to all of your teams this weekend and safe travels to and from the games !

I've stayed out of the spot light because I didn't want to take away for the complete domination of my Falcons.  I've been busy spreading my business around with all my ladies and haven't had time to entertain you bruisers on here.  Speaking of bruising, hows those bruises holding up Gate City after we embarrassed you?  Haha  I bring up Gate City because there's some talk that you want Randy Reid to come bail you out of the mess you're in right now.  Didn't you know that poaching was illegal?  Don't come cry the blues after you passed him up and didn't see the potential that ABINGDON FALCONS did!  Do you know what we do to Falcon poachers? . . . . . We take them behind the wood shed for old fashioned arse whipping!  My advice, leave Randy ALONE!  Next topic,  can this board get anymore politically correct?  I mean its good luck guys, don't get mad if we win, wheres a good place to eat, hope to play hard . . . . . . whatever happened to, "Hey, the Falcons are coming and we're going run through your town like Sherman did Atlanta?" You heard me right!  The Falcons are Coming!  "Fear the Beak!"  That's whats happening to our society.  No one tells em like it is and the next thing you know Iran has a nuclear deal.  While others sit quietly and watch the cars go by.  Well, I'm not going sit around and watch Gate City poach our Falcon!! No Sir, that won't happen on Falconman's watch.  I'll leave you with these two thoughts:  No to Iran Nukes;  No to Falcon Poaching!!!!
 
PS:  Tired of hearing about Union.  Union you don't want any of my Falcons!
 
Go Falcons

Congrats GW on a well executed game plan. I think last night was great for our young team. It showed the coaching staff exactly what they need to work on moving forward. This is going to be a great rivalry over the next few years!
 
I would also like to say congrats to Jordan Stout on setting a Honaker High field goal record with his 48 yarder last night. Kids got a future if he chooses it over soccer!

Good win for GW, hope the pack can get GW on their schedule, you all are a class act.

Giles at Glenvar Saturday October 10th should be a good one....then the following Friday the 16th Radford at Giles should be pretty good also

last I checked gwmaroon, its 7:30 unless it got changed

Honaker is a very good football team and Alta Vista better not underestimate them.  With that said, I do think the advantage goes to Alta Vista. D1 talent makes a difference in games like this.  However, I would like to see the boys from Southwest Virginia pull it off.  Good luck Honaker.

I can't argue with your assessment of GW in that Radford game. It left a lot to be desired on my end, and had a feeling it would be a long season. Things have started to come together offensively, and while Skeens is still the workhorse, it's not all on his shoulders. Phillips continues to run hard and find ways to contribute. Moore has always been a dangerous runner, but his throwing had been elevated quite a bit from last season and continues to improve every week. Duncan has made the biggest leap since the beginning of the year, and is forcing defenses to respect him as a receiver. It's only a matter of time before Kegley makes a key play for us, also. Harner's offense isn't leaps and bounds different from what we are accustomed to seeing, but from what I understand there are some different assignments and such that probably took the kids a little time to get used to and not quite second nature on the field.
 
I do agree with gwmaroon. I do think we are a step behind Haysi, Honaker, and Galax as of right now, though. I'm not sure we'll catch up come week 12 either. This team is still a little bit of a mystery to me, admittedly. It's been fun to watch the process play out and see things gel from week to week, however.
