I watched the Appomattox game, it appeared that the 500 spectators per team may have been exceeded by 2 or 3 —-hundred, just saying if they did , great , who cares what the VHSL thinks or king Ralphie
I watched the Appomattox game , I thought for sure that it was going to be a repeat of the Union game , but boy oh boy those Cougars came back. Best State finals in a very long time. Congrats to DA Raiders and congrats to the Cougars for battling back, you should be very proud
So for the season, I have him at 1,069 yards and 15 TD. Averages of 118.7 yards per game and 1.6 TD/game
I couldn't find carry totals for every game and may have missed a TD but I believe yards are correct. Great year, he could have added 100 more against East side but he didn't get touches. Only Abingdon and Eastside held him under 100.
The VHSL has just bumped up attendance to 1000 for the championship games. Tickets will be split to each school. If there are any unsold tickets they will be sold to the general public, but you can bet that Appomattox and Stuart’s Draft will use all of their tickets
Lucas had less than 600 yards rushing for the season. How many did Lomax have?
Does that include the two playoff games? Lomax shows 1100+ on Hudl, I don’t know if it’s correct , and Lomax had 1 more playoff game and at least 1 more regular season game . Big winner may have the stats
No I haven’t, just seen parents posting on book of face, the reason I asked was this I seen both Central backs along with Adkins and Lucas as first team and Lomax left on 2nd. I may be wrong but I think that Lomax had more yards except for Lucas??? Really not sure though
Baseball is a skill sport, even the best players have to work at getting their eye / hand coordination back(Bo Jackson, Dion Sanders)!often said it was easier going from baseball to football than vise versa. Union has what 2 days between football then to baseball? It may take several games/practices to get the baseball grove back, so it will be fine
I will also say this, great people from the Appomattox community, the young men who spoke to me represented your school very well . I spoke to several members of the school administration boosters etc. a real tribute to everyone there
Union—what is there to say, GREAT season, who else can say that they Won a State championship in basketball then won the region in football with so many underclassman. To the Seniors you provided us with memories that will last forever—-Thank You, and to the jerk on here, yes you know who you are.....you waited 3 weeks to say you were right, enjoy it but Union is still Region D Champs , and State Champs and that sir you can’t change....see you in the fall
I hoping they let me park with the team and the busses. I have all the Gatorades and post game snack for the kids.
Yeah we will just let us know, but to get inside the gates you must have Team passes and it’s one pass one person, VHSL rules not mine, if it were up to me I would just accidentally leave the gates unattended after the 1st quarter
To be the man, you have to beat the man, Appomattox is the defending state champion, many many of those kids are still there, 4x champions, speed everywhere , heck their cheerleaders can run fast . Union will be Union, hopefully the kicking game don’t beat them like it did last time
Is the actual park open right now? There may be a couple places to stand over there and see the action.
Yes, at the home games there has been cars parking near the fence, and some people standing at the outer fence, I think the “tree house” may offer a decent vantage point
Really man? Just because you don’t agree with what Democrats think doesn’t give you the right to call those who do agree “dumbocrats.” This is what’s wrong with our country. If you don’t agree — we just insult the other side. All it’s doing is further diving our country. Conservatives deserve due respect. Democrats deserve due respect. Green Party members deserve due respect. Humans deserve due respect.
You have a highly public job that our next generations look up to... help make the world a better place — not a more divisive one.
Really????I am not the one who wore black face and or a Klan outfit , said it was me, then said no it wasn’t, that’s why I called him a dumb o Crat , it’s just a play on words. Goooood God dude.......
Let’s remember King Ralphie and the dumb o crats made everything a secondary offense, so unless you have a body hanging out of your trunk , the police can’t stop you(speeding is still primary, didn’t want the troopers to do nothing)
What’s the best way to come if I’m coming down 81?
81 to 58 to Norton then 23 to Big Stone gap, take either 1st exit turn right go past Union high school to The park on east 1st street . Or take the 2nd exit turn left, go to east 5th and Wood ave , turn left again to east 1st
Well Bud it looks like i will get to meet you again at BSG saturday. Will i have any problem bringing a quick set canopy in?
Yeah , I will be working the game, I was told today, let your community know there are bathrooms behind the home stands now, much nicer than your last visit. I don’t know if food will be at the game, so we now have Curklins and a new pizza place both serve good food and some good beer if you like that sort of beverage. I will be on the scoreboard end on the visitor side, see you then
Nothing's showing up. I saw where ya quoted me but I can't see any text. I was agreeing with your post about what's actually important and how precious life actually is.
Sorry got called out , another young soul lost, it was at 2 am the night after the game that the murder occured
2016 Appomattox thumps Union at their place, that night Janina Jones was murdered by her husband Eric Jones. She left behind her children . Lomax was one of those kids. Appomattox lost some kids in the early morning hours before the game.
The reason brought this up is this, no matter the score, no matter who wins , we are all winners when the kids stay healthy.....Go Bears , be safe Appomattox fans and let’s all pray that God sends his angels to watch over us all
