It's middle school. The number games aren't a big deal as MS isn't sanctioned by the VHSL.

There are times though when the VHSL will step in. Pretty sure although Council was voted down by both, they were going to be placed in the Cumberland. Lebanon is about to be an interesting one though.

There are exceptions to every rule.....

Heckuva haul from Ewing to Poplar Gap.

New coaches tend to draw out curious people leading to higher numbers than a previous staff so not shocked Union has out a few more people this year. Add in a coach with an impressive resume and it tends to help that number even more. Will it be sustainable? Maybe/maybe not. Does that matter? No. The ones that you may lose along the way over the years are very unlikely to be those who would have been contributors anyway, as they probably don't have the mentality to put in the work month after month.

I think Buchanan will be Battles coach but I think a someone on Abingdons staff probably takes over given the timing.

The only player around here with that size that played MLB was a D1 OL prospect. I just wouldn't expect he would be able to move well enough to defend the pass or pursue RBs to the sidelines well.

That shows it wasn't the superintendents decision. It falls squarely on the SB members if true. The School Board doesn't work for the Superintendent.

Runs into Big Moccasin I believe. That is the name of the area Twin Springs school is actually located in.

On the other hand, the decline in population has been caused by worsening economics. The lack of $$$$ flowing into the Little League programs, coupled with archaic rules, have led to the downfall of Little League as a whole, but especially in our area. Travel ball doesnt mean you have to go all over the eastern seaboard to play. Going to the Tricities 2 days isnt any more cost ineffective as running all over Lee, Wise, Scott and Dickenson County to play 5 nights a week in Little League today as leagues dont have 8 teams in a division like they did in the 80s and 90s.

Why so confused @VHSLhelper

Twin Springs will play Providence Academy (Johnson City, TN) Week 0 8/21. I believe this will take place in Valley Creek.

Pretty sure everything has been discussed for close to a year already preparing for this.

Graham may have a better chance of making that run in basketball even than football although both could be very likely.

Yeah I wasn't thinking they would be tiny. Just not as big as last year across the front, but more agile and stronger will lead to better quite possibly.
