Except for that season, when Grayson was the largest A school in the state, started off strong as expected then lost the district to a split between Narrows with 18 players and Pocy. Damn, them were some fun years.
Which means Fort Chiswell would too. That’s 4 MED teams capable of being in Salem. Not bad for a district that most considered the weakest in Virginia 20 years ago.
The Fort that played in Narrows, wholeheartedly agree. Their split personality that played in Pearisburg 7 days earlier, who knows.
And the potential for it to be that was always there. Galax never could find a coach, Fort couldn't find consistency, Grayson was too focused on baseball. Narrows and Giles were Narrows and Giles, and Floyd would take turns being strong.
I love to see it. Truthfully I’m surprised Honaker made it this far. Luck has been on their side the last 6 weeks. Galax, GW, and Grayson all would have beaten Honaker.
I'm happy with how things have went so far, pulling for the NRD teams. But, I know Crist isn't his Dad and Allen ain't no Dixon so I hoping for the best.

With Narrows up 16-6 with 2 mins left in the 1st quarter, the alarm system for the school goes off and they empty the gym.
