It’s election year for the governor so it would be political suicide for him if he shuts it down…they’ll play…he’ll claim he kept everything open for the kids, then when the elections over all bets are off, sorry basketball

Abingdon Home 8-12 6pm.  Benefit game at Ridgeview 08-20  7pm

For me, it looks a bit better than Richlands game last week. About the same as the middle school game Monday. At least the clock is working.

Well tonight would be the final game for lots of seniors and next week the playoffs would have begun.
Sure hope they let our boys play.  Are there still 36 states playing right now while VA kids sit by and wave goodbye to their season / senior seasons for some of them.

For one, They are playing Princeton twice.

I just really enjoy the challenge. I actually did not know about this and was not contacted. Tim Hayes pointed it out to me. The interesting thing is that while I know a lot about Virginia High School football and her history I know much more about WV high school football history. One because I have been researching WV much longer and Two) there is much less to learn because of the smaller population. I still have a long ways to go before I can claim to be an expert or THE AUTHORITY on Virginia high school football. If I had to do one thing over in hindsight I would do Virginia research first because when I started Marshall Johnson was still alive. By the time I really got into Virginia he had passed and all I have is his scattered notes and notebooks. BTW. There are literally dozens of notebooks by Marshall Johnson containing Virginia High School basketball history and scores. I know where they are.

Graham 75 Lee High 59 - final

Region D made an impressive showing at the 2A State Tournament in Salem this weekend.  Region D accounted for six State Champions and twelve Top Six Place Winners  The Mountain 7 had a State Champion at 145 lbs. Jonah Phillips of Wise Central and four Top Six Place Winners.  The Southwest District had five State Champions:  152 lbs. Justin Fritz of Graham, 160 lbs. Jacob Puckett of Richlands, 170 lbs. Gage Richard of VA High, 182 lbs. Logan Smith of Lebanon, and 195 lbs. Luke Martin of Richlands.  The Southwest District also had eight Top Six Place Winners.  Great showing for the wrestlers of Southwest Virginia and Grundy added another State Title at 1A to complete the weekend.
This was Justin Fritz's third straight State Championship.  He was State Champion at 132 lbs. in 2018 and 145 lbs. in 2019. I believe he is the only three time State Champion in Tazewell County Wrestling history.  Please let me know if there are any others.  Dylan Cook had back to back State Championships at 195 lbs. in 2014 & 2015.  The other four Graham State Champions each had one State Championship.
To go along with his three State Championships Justin also has three Region D Championships.  His record for the 2019-2020 season was 51-1.  His career record is 141-13. 

Biased is NOT good. There is a difference between bias and rooting for your team. They are not the same. You can root for your team and still give objective analysis. Nothing makes me turn off a game quicker than blind bias on the part of the announcer. For those of us who remember this is what made the old TBS broadcast so good before Don Sutton ruined them. Skip Carey was a die hard Braves fan but he told it like it was.
