The beauty or problem is you never know about a bad game or matchup. If you have one, you hope it's in the regular season. Appomattox are deserving champions. My ignorance of Clarke County aside, they played well enough to reach the final. On any given day, Richlands, Union, or Glenvar could have beaten Appomattox as well or each other. Regardless, it was an exciting season.

I have hit some 100 yd shots on putt putt courses.  It really is a challenge to hit wedge like shots with a putter.

Oddly enough, I played some of my best rounds on tough tracks.  Put me on a course equal to my skills, and I will blow up and shoot horrid scores.
 
I have enjoyed playing Red Wing in VA Beach.  It can be a real challenge when the SEALS are doing live fire exercises next door at Camp Pendleton.  Nothing like automatic weapons fire to mess up your shots.

Here's a crazy idea for UVA...Ruffin McNeil is available and he KNOWS how to beat VT....

Dang!  The Hoo fans are taking this hard...found this trinket of Hoo wisdom on LeSabre...
 

I have always had a sweet spot in my heart for Tazewell County, and all the towns and small communities in the county.Let me say that, Tazewell county has some very good people living there, and
Represents the best of SWVA. After I graduated college while the Vietnam War was at its peak, my first job was in Tazewell, and for the County of Tazewell. The war took me away from my job for a short time, but I told my employer to hold my job, and that I would be back. And that was God's plan for me,as I did return to Tazewell. I met some amazing people all over the county, and I sat down often with them and broke bread with them in frendship. Life took on a different meaning to me in those days. I began to see life in a much larger picture, and not so much as letting the smaller things of life take a hold of me, and mold me into to somebody, other then who I really was.
 
Life is very short, My Friends. It seem like it was only yesterday that I was on Bearwaller Mt, Redash, or Pocahontas setting down with some very good folks, and trying to figure out we could make life better for them and their families. It was those people that help define me, not the turmoil of war, and it's bitterness.
 
Folks, as I enter my final years of life on this old Earth, I enjoy watching the game of football just as much as the next guy. Defeat was something that I could not and would not accept. It made the game, more than a game, but something that tried to mold me into somebody other than who I was and am today.
We as adults must realize that we must be the role models for our youth. We as adults, should always let winning not define us, but teach us how to deal with success, and not expect success to come without a price. Let no man sit in judgement of his fellowman, but let our maker judge whether or not we have served him to the best of our ability. The game is nothing but a game. If we make more of it than what it is and let it's outcome define us, than it no longer is a game that I would not want the youth I know be part of on this great Earth. May God continue to bless all the good folks in Tazewell County. If we love our fellowman, than we are all winners in the eyes of God.

You know there was a Town Manager who wanted to change the Bluefield VA seal to show East River Mt. in the background with a silhouette of a Mallard in the foreground so maybe they could be the East River Ducks.

All these rumors are just generating hits for sports web sites.
 
My pick is Coach Taylor.
 
Clear eyes, Full Heart....

I much prefer the names of the new schools. like War Hill.  Heck, even Grassfields is unique.

The VH$L couldn't dictate the alphabet...

You do realized there are several other "Central"s in VA...Central (Wise), Central (Woodstock), Central Senior...
 
Don't understand why they chose such a "vanilla" name for the school...I guess your county administrators wanted to be like Necktucky.  In reality, all the "new" schools in Wise Co. have "vanilla" names...Central, Eastside, Union.  Union is the least "vanilla" of them all, I guess they could be considered "French Vanilla"...
 

@Trumpet... I do believe on EVERYthing that the VHSL send out it is referred to Central-Wise. Sure if you drive up behind the ole Wal-Mart and see the sign it says "Central High School" but to clarify Central could be a multitude of schools. I think within Wise County, Central would be directly associated with Central-Wise but travel closer to Abingdon and it could be Sullivan Central... Up in central Virginia there is Sussex Central, Central-Lunenburg, and Central-Woodstock. 
 
Maybe utilized as clarification more so than people just being ignorant. 

I was loving hearing folks Sat. trying to read tea leaves and assuming sites like 24/7 have magical insights.
 
I have no magical insights, I just know that this is a very uncertain, stressful time for all the Tech staff, including Babcock. Whit is a better poker player that a lot of ADs. 
 
The only one sleeping well right now is Frank.

The biggest hitch is finding someone who will volunteer to be Lee Corso. It's like Dick Clark in those final years of New Year's Rockin' Eve. Kudos for coming back from the stroke, but it's emotionally taxing to watch.

Pretty sure that an 8th grader playing on varsity during his 8th grade year will not be eligible during his 12th grade year.
