Times change. Alot of the younger generations prefer virtual entertainment to contact sports. Thats just how civilization works, what interested our fathers and grandfathers, don't always interest the children. And populations does continue to decline, there is not much to keep people here other than family.
Watching the ridgeview-bluefield game on youtube, good lord ridgeview is sucking it up on D. Wide, and i mean wide open rec takes it the one, then they punch it in. 2Pt good 5:32 in 3rd qtr, Bluefield 30- ridgeview 8
Not really a game update, but wise central just rolled through clintwood with a sirens blaring police escort. Thought something major was going down with all the noise lol
Most I can remember Grundy having in the last 20 years. My senior year we had 28 and that was after going to two straight region championships.
Grundy has never had real big numbers. The years I played during our four years in a row going to the regional championships we were lucky if we 20 to 30 come out. Whittled that down to around 20 by the end of the year. So I'm glad to finally see some kids show up. Can't wait to catch a few games this year, work willing.
I'll be completely honest in saying I have no earthly idea where Patrick Henry even is, only hear about the school in passing. Being undefeated is nothing to sneeze about, still a great accomplishment. I just know less than nothing about the school or its program. No slight to PH at all.
Anyone catch their new top 5? Their selection skills are a little off I think. While I am proud of my grundy boys, I dont think they need to be on this list. It's still early in the year, and I don't really know much about Patrick Henry or lee, but Richlands and at least graham, probably a few more, need to be on the list.
Why are numbers so low?
