It is a rumor because it is as yet not been announced. I have heard from 2 good sources that the announcement would be made at the VHSL meeting on the 8th(?)
You very well could be right and the whole thing is a farce however the rumors of GC dropping to the LPD started about a year before they did (I was told by MANY GC folks that they would never ever drop during that same year) The rumors of Va High Dropping started about 2 and a half years ago and 6 months ago they announced there dropping to A. So Just because it is still only a rumor I am not ready to dismiss it.
