It is now posible that not only will Honaker miss it is possible that Hurley does too. Hurley must beat Auburn to assure a spot. Honaker with a win over Northwood will help. Rural Retreat will be a factor with either a forfoet for Bland or playing 9 and dividing by 9 they may slip in at 8. If twin springs wins last two they go in also.

Honaker should get at 8 if they beat Northwood. If they upset PH or Ridgeview it is a lock and seded higher. Even losses to PH and RV they will pick up quite a few points.

Back to the game the kids that were out for Honaker against Burton are they back? They are difference makers if not....or so.

Thank you. But the PV RC game was actually a very good game. If i am not mistaken RC led for a good portion before PV scored two TD in the 4th and won like 32-14.

If memory serves me right there has been several times that a team went 9-1 and did not make the playoffs because another team won their own district with a 55 or 6-4 record. The owers to be decided that power points should determine who gets in not a district championship. I do bekeive that Honaker was caught in that trap in the early part of 2000 went 9-1 or 8-2 and was left out because they played a weaker schedule. Worth a look to see if I remeber correctly

Does Honaker have some kids out? If so that would make a big difference.

Galax names the score

Just thinking this one might be a surprise to the people posting.

I was refering to the fact that at one time before Coach Wright Battle won 10 games in 10 years. I was attempting to give credit to the Battle folks and the respect the program has gathered over the past few years.

That worked out pretty well for him, building a program.

When it rains it pours. hearing backup QB has concussion. I am sure Coach Ricker and his staff will build this program and fight through the rough patches.

What about Denton does he get to play this season?

Has Battle had injuries? I havent heard of any major injuries this year. I always hope that the young men can play without any.

Really? So Padgett and Russell runs those teams? I thought Robinson and Rhodes were the head coaches? I guess Coach Russell should be in line for the next head coaching job that opens in the area or take over if Coach Robinson ever decides to step down.

How is the new coach doing? Are the kids buying in? I don't think Lee shoudl be judged on the first two games it is a long season.

Mr. Plywood thank you for speaking the truth.

Sir I can assure you that Galax and Coach Dixon was not who I was referring to. So that just leaves one other team. It is interesting that a fan from Glade Spring could get a state semifinal moved.

That is not true. Chilhowie was denied the home game and would not play at Emory. Great discussion but the admin at both schools know the truth but I am sure they are not on here reading the discussion.

Looking at both schedules if they both stay healthy and continue to improve that is very likely t happen. Have to give the Chilhowie staff and players a great deal of credit of picking up where they left off. But Ph better focus on Hurley because they seem to have an outstanding team.

Burton plays in the cumberland which I am guessing is the teams that is in question over the last several years. I think we as fans put too much stock into season schedules. In 1A and even 2A 1 injury can change a season and the real key to playoff success is the health of a team. Chilhowie has played a tough schedule and they have had great success. I wonder what their playoff record would look like over the last 10 years?

PH playoff record 5-6 over last 18 years Not sure about the strength of schedule but the teams that bounced the Rebels looks to be the same teams that bounced everyone else. 2018 2-1 lost to state finalist Chilhowie 2017 1-1 Lost to Burton (respected program) 2016 1-1 Lost to GW (lost is state semi) 2015 0-1 upset first round by Bland 2014 1-1 Lost to Galax ( Best 1 A program west side) 2012 0-1 lost to Honaker

Rye cove will be much better. How was Castlewood, Northwood and Rural Retreat?

Guys Jimbo doesn't strike me as this type of a guy. But 3,200 signatures? and he was moved to the elementary/middle school. Doesn't sound good for his health.

Maybe but no PE position at Battle unless he teaches SPED

Rumor he was with his staff at a clinic this weekend......NC staff
