I have noticed that Maxpreps does a lot better with their soccer coverage. The VHSL is using them for their brackets too.

SWD Boys is 1. VA High 2. Graham 3. Marion 4. Tazewell VA High finishes 16-0-1 on the season and wins the SWD tournament championship against Graham last night. haven’t seen the pairings yet for the region D tourney Does region C have anything for the Bearcats? They’re going to be a tough out with 8+ seniors and the Poku brothers leading the team.

Graham girls are very good and have one player that really sticks out. Richlands, Tazewell & Virginia High girls are all pretty good teams too and on a normal year they could all compete for the region D championship but Graham has beaten them all handily this season, with the exception of one game against Richlands that they won 3-1 .

Biggest game of the year for Battle will be played next month in Salem

Pretty sure Hankins didn’t play

Eli Allen (James Monroe) wins the WV Gatorade Player of the Year after averaging 21 points, 7 rebounds & 9 assists per game.

Bradley Dean improved his stock for two years at UVA-Wise. He entered the transfer portal and has been contacted by multiple D1 teams, per a report.

Right. I would like to know what year they did for all sports or if it was staggered. I know by at least 2003 their basketball teams were combined. In 2007 we played Bland County in Bland’s gym in the regular season and in the district tournament they hosted us at Rocky Gap’s gym. I always thought that was neat.

They combined for all sports too, years before consolidation. Their basketball teams would alternate each home game between Rocky Gap High & Bland High. It had to be sometime in the late 90’s or early 2000’s.

When did Bland County start combining for all sports?

I was having this conversation with a guy last week. What are some unforgettable games that you got to witness? the first one that comes to mind for me was in early 2006 Pocahontas @ Big Creek. Pocahontas was leading comfortably the whole game until the last few minutes when Big Creek made a run to take the lead. With around 5 seconds left Pocahontas’s Mark Little went the length of the court to score the game tying basketball on a fadeaway. The game went in to overtime & Pocahontas ended up winning 101-100. Mark Little had a quadruple double with points, rebounds, assists & steals. He finished the game with 54 points. Little averaged 34 points per game that season, made the all state team & won BDT Player of the Year.

Cannon Hill has an official D1 offer from Army Tazewell’s Cassius Harris signed last month with Richmond & Ricky Compton has committed to Ferrum Princeton’s QB got a PWO offer from WVU

The people arguing this point are admittedly not from & not associated with Tazewell. That’s not very observant of an observer.

Willis played the second game against Lebanon and Tazewell won that game. he did not play in the other games

Months after the t-shirts were given out you’re still talking about them. Seems like the advertising plan worked out well for the businesses. Money well spent.

This thread should hold us over until July

Because MT. View dropped them in the middle of the contract cycle when there was no chance to pick up a game without traveling 4+ hours, and they did that without even informing Tazewell. Not even close to being the same situation.

LEGAL NIL deals for high school athletes are prohibited in Virginia but allowed in Tennessee

Spots claimed on the All-Southwest District 1st & 2nd team by schools: Virginia: 23 Graham: 22 Tazewell: 16 Richlands: 15 Marion: 4

I think Riverheads has to be one of the favorites to win the 2a championship next season.

WV state championship games can have replay coach’s challenges. Virginia can’t I guess

This has been forgotten a lot lately.
