It's on NFHS

This entire incident could have been avoided if the VHS coach wouldn't have ran to home like a crazy person. His runner was clearly out and he (the coach) should have been immediately ejected for his actions.

He didn't coach against Ridgeview last night....

Whether it's his son or not doesn't change anything. In this situation they are coach-player, not coach-son or father-son.

I didn't realize he had a younger son playing. It looks similar but not sure what was said last night. I can vouch that the ex Ridgeview coach physically and verbally assaulted a player.

I went back and watched it on NFHS. Looks like it started with the player being a sore loser by slamming his helmet down and looks like he said something then Gobble got involved. Again....no excuse for an adult to put their hands on a student-athlete.

That's definitely not his son. Doesn't matter if it is or not. No place for a coach to put his hands on a player.

Add her and Trivette to the roster and the SWVA Warriors will win another state championship

They're putting it off as long as they can so the spotlight doesn't come off the girls basketball team

I saw where some of it was donated to Richlands Little League for their batting cages.

16-15 is a pitching duel??? 🤔

That's the only game that I didn't get to watch any of.

Do any of our local officials ever get to work the state championship games? I haven't recognized a single official yet. I know we all like to complain about them but I would be that ours down in this part of the state are just as good as the ones out east.

Could you all imagine if a school tried to do this on our end of the state?? NO WAY the VHSL would let them play!!!

I'll complain before, during and after if I so choose......

Kudos to the Va High kids for not backing down. Listening to these announcers try to validate what JM is doing is sickening. They, and the VHSL, should be ashamed of themselves for doing what they're doing. That wasn't a true 2A championship game that was just played.

Pretty sure he has a family member that plays basketball for Central.

If you search "VHSL" it shows the game and all of the other playoff games.

I think last night's games proved who the M7 POY should be. Gunner Garrett showed up big time when his team needed him and finished with 33 points. I watched the entire Central-Graham game and Collins was an absolute non-factor; didn't score his first points until the end of the 2nd quarter and was a liability on defense. Horne carried the Warriors with 25 points. Next year will be interesting on the hill when the Hayes kid is added to the mix. The combo of him and Horne might be the best duo we've seen in our area in a few years.

Garrett will get POY because GC finished ahead of Central and he is a senior. That's not to say that Garrett isn't the better player anyways.

Not sure what you were looking at, but there is clearly a flop by Horne and his foot trips McMurray. That in itself should have been a foul. Btw I don’t have a horse in the race.

And people still wonder why kids from our area aren't recruited.....

The horrible non call in that situation is the missed trip by Horne who tried to draw a foul by flopping.

It's not a travel until you roll over.
