Giles JV got their first real test tonight against an undefeated Grayson team. Giles took the lead 26-22 with 1 minute left and held on for the win. They improve to 5-0.
Well, let me tell you how we are going to win the district.........
ha, ha. Tell you how some other team could win the district (we will not).....a tie. Regarding 1 team winning the district, I would guess that 1 team will not win the district outright and there will be a tie versus one team winning the district outright. Just my guess. The teams are that close and I include Fort Chiswell with Galax, Grayson, Wytheville. With those 4 schools, I don't think we are good enough to win more than 2 of those 4, and 2 of those 4 is pushing it. One or two teams in the district will win 3 of those 4 contests and those will be the district winners. Giles will not be one of those teams or team imo.
Yeah... come out looking like the school Harry Ragsdale graduated from and still called the Green Wave. They'd might win some people over on that consolidation dick they've been riding for so long. 🤣
Seems like Giles has been in rebuilding for a long awhile. Used to reload and every year someone says " We will be better next year we have some athletic players coming up" It seems like this never materializes though. I hope to see Giles back atop the district and make a deep run into the playoffs but idk if that is happening anytime in the near future.
Trust me it can IF all these guys stay together and parents let them to continue to play football.
It all goes in cycles...from 1980 till a few years ago not many teams at all can match our production
I get to be the man you got to beat the man but the district looks weaker this year and IMO Galax is returning to the pre Dixon era. It's definitely there for Giles to win it. Ft. Chiswell shouldn't be written off either
Can't compare scores...and blacksburg is a little better but they are still terrible. I'll be surprised if Giles beats Grayson, Wythe or Galax to be honest.
Grayson D is pretty good...Wythe has some athletes, we have very few. Galax has played one hell of a schedule.
Ft chiswell i have no idea....but if we play like we did over there last year they will destroy us
Auburn and a bunch of 'I hope we play well so we have a chance'
They are all winnable. Unfortunately, they are all losable, so that usually ends somewhere in the middle. Being in the middle isn't winning the district. I don't bet, but if I did, I would bet big money on "the field" winning the district over Giles.
Yep....only game I'm pretty sure we win is auburn....the rest we have to play mistake free to win and we haven't shown we can do that
Grayson has really struggled offensively, Galax and Wythe are both very winnable games this year as well as Ft. Chiswell. I wouldn't be shocked if Giles swept the district quite honestly. Tazewell could be a win with a little luck and BlueField is a waste of time even showing up.
We aren't winning the district...we have struggled too..
The frustrating part is Giles db's were generally in good position to defend the majority of the passes but need some work with technique. Have to start turning and making a play on the ball and avoiding the PI calls. Even on the last TD catch, the DB had great position and could have easily been knocked down or intercepted. I think Giles wins that game 9 out of 10 times.
But they won the one that mattered....we choked no other way to state it....I don't see many wins this year....auburn yes....after that who?
While that is true I would rather try to contain one player and a couple of wing and prayer plays than a solid all around team like the one that knocked Giles out last year. I just couldn't see Giles losing to them a 2nd time
This team will struggle to win more than 2 games this year....we may not have to worry about anyone in the playoffs
I definitely agree and would love to see a Rd 2. The better team didn't win that game on the score board. I wouldn't have been as excited about seeing Narrows in the playoffs last year but Giles wins that game 9 out 10 times this year.
They had the best player by a WIDE margin....that alone in division 1 is enough for me not wanting to see narz again
Not according to two Spartans fans down at the Hardees. According to them, "we got 3 guys better than that bum." I just grabbed my biscuit, put my head down, smiled and headed out. I then thought to myself as to whether we need to tighten up voter laws and driving laws, because there is no way some of these people can make a reasonable decision, and God knows for sure, they can't be safe behind heavy machinery.
And I probably know one of the two you are talking about

That sounds like stuff narrows fans said back in the day lol....times have changed
