I would still give the nod to Allen. Maybe if Trivette gets a Power 5 scholly down the road I could say I was wrong but Allen done more for Richlands girls basketball than Trivette and got a D1 scholarship doing so. 

I think Sykes will probably be the #2 guy at DB from what I had heard.  The kid who transferred from Betsy is more likely the one to get the starting spot.

I hope they can get it fixed properly and quickly.   Gene Malcolm is typically one of the best facilites around when combining natural grass and seating for home and visitors.  Locker rooms are the only issue I have had with the setup.

He has a commitment to where he wants to go to college, but he has a better chance of that staying a committable offer by playing well against higher levels of competition as well.  Whether that be in HS or travel.

Thats the question everyone is asking.  Heard they have a house on the Virginian now.  If they move there Ive heard Abingdon, Battle and TN High.   TN High would be deadly with their lineup and adding her to the mix.  Pitching was what limited them IMO this year.   Have also heard with the move she may just focus on travel ball.  Will be interesting to see as she is a special talent.  

To make sure the guy the coach wants to have the job to get it.

Hes been everywhere man....across the desert bare man......hes breathed the mountain air man.

The support for our girls at RC was amazing from throughout Scott County.  Even though we didnt win the last game the welcome home is something that will last with them a long time.  I know it will me.

I’ve been around for 20+ years. I started swva sports.com back when I started swvaol.com which was a dial up internet device. Roughly in 2001 or so. At that time gman had the old swvafootball message board going.  My idea was to bring it all under one roof at swvasports so we could have one place to visit and talk about everything year round and not 15 different pages that were dedicated to each sport. Gman liked the idea and this place was born. At some point years later I got busy with kids, life, family etc etc. and kinda faded in to the background. Gman has kept it rolling along but he’s ready for a break. Instead of closing doors here I told him I’d just come out of semi retirement and keep it rolling. So here we are. Getting ready to move it to a new server, clean up a few things, and on down the road we go. Together. 
 
gman will still be around I’m sure. 
 
not much should really change. I’ll try to do a few things to make it better. 
 
anyway … it’s all good. Enjoy. 

Which game are you looking to watch?  I know some Facebook feeds for RC. I think I saw where Tazewells radio crew will be there tomorrow. 

Congratulations to Lady Bulldogs & Rye Cove! Both play for championship tomorrow! 

Mac McClung gets all the press from down that way which is understandable but it would be cool for Rye Cove softball to bring home a state title to Scott County. 

I wish Tazewell played at 1 Friday.  Good luck to the Bulldogs Friday morning.

Rogers had to throw too many pitches last night to give TN a chance tonight.  Hate it’s coming to an end short of the championship games.  TN misses a young Ralph on the sidelines in a week like this.

The game Saturday between OU/TN will be a lot of fun.

Rye coves team is half made up by transfers. But oh well everyone else exploits the system *cough cough* Graham 

A recent US Federal Appeals Court ruling made a deal or framework in which Purdue Pharma ruling by a US federal appeals court on Tuesday established a framework by which Purdue Pharma will pay out roughly $6 billion in settlement money for its absolute GUILT in fueling or enhancing the US Opioid Crisis.  But guess what that powers that be decided?   It decided that the Sackler family that owns the company will also be protected from future lawsuits on the subject.  In December 2021, a federal judge threw out the bankruptcy deal, saying the law didn't allow the Sacklers to be protected from legal claims against them.  But.......an appeals ruling just overturned that.  The Sacklers should be in prison....any and all of them that contributed to Purdue Pharma.  There's not one of them that should be walking the streets, if they were involved in running the business.  Only my opinion of the Sacklers or "Sack of" you know whats.  

I told one of their coaches yesterday it was good to see them switch back off of black.  Last years domes werent as bad as 2 seasons ago but white or blue is more fitting for them I believe.
