Kingsport is growing fairly quickly. The 2010 census had them at 48,205. 2020 at about 55,442. No surprise that DB enrollment would increase.

Wow. DB actually having anything to do with a Virginia team half their size? That’s a shocker.

That’s how a few Union/Richlands games have gone.

Union or Graham

I have seen 1A teams make it with 3-7 records. Appalachia made it at 3-7 in 1998. That was when district champs got priority seeding. Rye Cove, as the only Region D Division 1 football team to win their District Regular Season Title, was first seed. They were 9-1, so likely would have been 1st seed even if they didn’t win the Cumberland District as the rest were Burton (5-5), Twin Springs (4-6), and Appalachia (3-7). Rye Cove was one and done, losing to Appalachia 35-18. Rye Cove had a very weak schedule. Appalachia, while VERY WEAK, did have a bit of a tough schedule. They had Powell Valley (98 PV team, enough said), a pretty tough and stout Lee team who played PV closest that season out of anybody and still lost, a young but very good Clintwood team who lost only to PV (49-20 reg season, 27-14 playoffs), a Sullivan North team who went 8-2 and lost first round, Lebanon who won the Highlands.

I mean won a game at all. I know they’ve never officially beaten Union. I know how they have usually fared against the U.

When is the last time Lee High won a game?

Sheesh! First 4 games are away.
