    Down early in the game, John Marshall came back to beat Nottoway after trailing by a score of 2-0. Final score 105 to 23.

    John Marshall beat a good 2A Radford team 91-34 last year in the title game, so there is no way anyone stays within 50 this year.  They don't let up.

    In my opinion he is doing a good job. He's not everyone's cup of tea. He coaches the boys hard, which they are not used to. He had a couple of kids quit and he lost a couple of big men ( 6'6" and 6'5") who could of really helped but they got in trouble at school and they were gone. He's a former player at the University of Buffalo, played overseas for a number of years and also worked in the Chicago Bulls organization for a couple of years. He's from Rahway, NJ so he brings a certain type of toughness to the program. He also coached the jv team this year who ended up only losing 3 or 4 games. I hope we can keep him.

    Congrats to new Richlands Head Coach Ronnie Davis. Best wishes in turning it around for the Blues. I'm sure Coach Davis is excited about the opportunity and ready to get busy. Also, a humble and grateful thank you to former coach Tarter for years and years of service to your community. America could use a whole lot more just like you. Good luck to all Blues fans, players, and alums in the transition and new beginning.

    I want to know why Glenvar is 6th. Shouldn't Glenvar be 2nd behind Radford according to one guy on this board? I said this on the other board. The best team we played all year was Graham. I don't care what Calpreps says.

    In the late 80s when Lee was formed, they were good, very good. So was Gate City, but Gate City wasn't controlling the SWD or Region. Graham was. I know because I played against them twice in 1989. They won the Region in 89, 90, 93, 95. Lee started to fall off in 96. In 91 and 92 Radford won the region.

    Great show of fan support by Graham. My Bobcats finally did it. What's it been, 30 or 31 years since beating Graham? Happy for our kids. Going to be tough to beat Riverheads. We got a shot though.  For the 2 Gmen fans I met today, if you are on here, I enjoyed the beers and conversation. Best of luck to Graham next year, but I don't think you will need it with all that youth.

    No offense, but I think you are underestimating Poquoson. I know there's the thought about Poquoson as a bunch of slow white dudes that can't run, or that's the perception. At Poquoson, they are big into Olympic type sports. Kids down there are just all around athletes. Watch them on defense against Lafayette or King William and how fast they close. Poquoson has not just average, but very good overall team speed. They have lots of track guys on their team. My wife is from Poqouson and lived some in Nottoway, so I keep up with those 2. 
    Perception of Poquoson is good football players and not very athletic. It's almost the exact opposite. They have far more athletes than truly good football players. Lots of their kids come from Langley Air Force Base and NASA kids whose parents have traveled. Langley and NASA border Poquoson. They've been exposed to Olympic type sports, training, distance running with their military parents etc.

    The Reg D winner needs a strong AD to make the case to the VHSL to ensure it gets moved in case the powers that be at Radford try to keep it at Radford. I hope the people at Radford don't put up an argument and move the game. The Glenvar game should not be played at Radford.
    If you are a Reg D team coming to Radford and Radford didn't move it, I would do the same. Get there early and set on home side. Warning to all Region D fans, if played at Radford, the power Karen's will be there at the gate trying to direct you to the non home side. Legally, they can't do that, but they will try to intimidate you. They can't stop you from setting on Radford side.

    Coach Crist has done a pretty good job with Clark.  Lots of knocks on Crist's on the field and game day knowledge but Clark has grown not just on the field but off the field.  He's matured a bit and this is the report from teachers in the classroom to fellow players to assistant coaches.  Crist has been a huge part of that.  Clark's got a lot of talent and if he keeps his head on straight, then he's got a good future.  He's definitely matured over the past year emotionally.
