Merry Christmas to all!

Kenny Wayne was my dads HS coach at Rye Cove. He still talks fondly of the person and coach he was. He follows Carroll on NFHS to keep up with his granddaughter.

Probably right about 13th region. He wont be a Vol Killer though toiling away at USCjr. Might as well have gone to Duke if he wanted to be a white guy getting the crap kicked out of him in basketball by UT.

Impressive win over Pineville last night for GW. Pineville would win 1D going away.

I agree Coe deserved it. Its a flawed system.

Duke nailed it. Its really hard to to make those teams without being on a team capable of making a deep playoff run.

Agreed. When you have a quality staff everyone is contributing and at times that may be in the form of counter points, input on game plan and it all gets fined tuned together. No one ego can be bigger than the other but the assistants have to understand the HC may get the glory but they also will shoulder the most blame too.

Sounds like Lee county is taking a restart on this basketball season.

Pulled up a preseason preview from the BHC that shows Parker Bandy, Aidan Lowe, Malachi Lowe, Elijah Musick, Austin Clayburne, Peyton Whited and Tyler Cole listed as seniors. Not sure if other starters on either side of the ball graduate or not. Peyton Musick will return of course and hes a stud at QB and Avery Musick looked like a capable skill guy before injury..

I know Galax doesnt graduate many key players. What does Honaker and GW lose?

Pennington was 2A. The last year maybe two before Lees consolidation Region D was won by Cumberland District schools in both Division 1 & 2.

CCC is a potential D1 player but not at RB

I think Eastside graduated 6-7 of last years players but I may be mistaken. No matter what Damron and his staff will have them well prepared and tough to beat.

Theres a few OCs out there who seem to get away from their bread and butter unnecessarily in the red zone.

8:31 left in the 1st quarter. 14-0 Honaker

Onside kick recovered by Honaker. Solid call with how poor Honaker KO coverage was last week when kicking deep.

Big cajones by Tiller and Wicks. 4th and 4 and Lowe takes it 68 yards for a TD.

Doesn’t look like Galax brought as big of a crowd as RC did last week.

1. Game of the year Twin Valleys first win. Kudos to Crigger and crew on that after having to shut down last year 2. Play of the year Narrows Hail Mary 3. Best Uniforms I am biased for the Cove 4. Best Stadium Its too big for HS ball but Mitchell still is the best 5. Best home field advantage The atmosphere at the Cove is solid right now. 6. Best concession stand and why? Didnt get to sample anyone but Twin Springs but their fudge sampler hit the sweet tooth spot. 7. Nickname of The Year Cheaters. Said by so many losers. 8. Can't catch a break (bad luck program) Richlands. Had a shot to beat Tazewell for their only win of the year and lightning.... 9. Best Helmet Gate City 10. POY in SWVA Aiden Lowe Gets it done on both sides of the ball.

Dont be mucking up my water upstream.

That seems odd for a Hoo.

Fair point. I havent seen Galax this year. Running double tights? I was thinking under Dixon, while the still seemed to run almost every play they used to use WRs to spread out the defense somewhat.

Also though if Galax sends pressure if Honaker recognizes it presnap they can find the matchup that best suites them ahead of time. Whether it be through the air or on the ground. Lowe is such an ace in the hole on both sides of the ball. Narrows put up points being dynamic on offense. If Galax is one dimensional its going to be much harder to gain ground with 9 in the box.

How similar is Rural Retreats defense to Galax defense? They seemed to hold common opponents to similar scores?

Bandy, Lowe and Musick make quite the deadly combination. Especially with Lowe being so good running and receiving.
