That is correct.

This ^^^^^^^^^^^ PH was either 8-2 or 7-3 against AHS from 90-99....not sure about 91, but they dId lose in 92 and 95....I think maybe the 93 and 94 games were close...but PH won others handily.....

player99 is on the money on the next 3 years for sure - Aug 5th, 4th, and 3rd will be first days of practice for 2013-2015 seasons

offensive linemen can cut anywhere in the box, while the ball is in that area - the box is basically from tackle to tackle, within a yard or two (give or take) of the LOS....you can cut any defender that is in the "box" at the snap of the ball, whether a run or pass...if a LB walks up and shows his blitz, he can be cut - as long as it happens in the "box"

It is possible, and somewhat common, for kids to change schools without moving - the thing that allows them to do so is that the division superintendent can overrule the VHSL transfer rule - all he/she has to do is write a letter saying that the transfer is for "non-athletic" reasons....even though most of the transfers are for athletic reasons, who is going to prove it??? It is very frustrating to say the least. I know of a situation that happened where a student attended what I will call school A as a 9th and 10th grader; started his 11th grade year at school A, playing varsity football through the first 2 games, against opponent 1 and 2...then a week later transferred to school B (in the same school system)....and started on special teams for school B that Friday.....and even ended up playing against opponent 1 and 2 again, as well as playing against school A....all made possible by a superintendent waiver. That is insane and should have never happened in a million years, but it definitely happened.

The VHSL catastrophic insurance will not cover any full pad practices that take place out of season. Helmets are allowed for safety purposes, but no pads.

Just a few from Abingdon from about 1980 on that went on to play college ball - I know they had some very good players in the 60s and 70s too, just don't know names Mark Briscoe - lettered @ VT Steve Knight - started on OL @ UT, drafted by Colts Eric Smith - HS All-American, lettered @ VT Will Colley - recruited as a TE, started on OL @ UGA Sean Lucas - started @ OLB/S @ VT Jamie Harless - NCAA D3 All-American @ Emory & Henry

nope but they don't have to play people that don't attend either......if you play football, summer workouts are a part of it.....period....if someone doesn't want to attend, they don't have to......and if they don't want to go, how bad do they really wanna play?????

Seth Curry will be a nice addition for Duke, and I think Dawkins will step up as well; they also have some very good incoming recruits: Kyrie Irving (6'2"/172, #1 PG) and Tyler Thornton (6'2"/180, PG); Joshua Hairston (6'9"/220, #7 PF), as well as JC transfer Carrick Felix (6'6"/190, SF)......if Singler and Smith are back, they will be very good again. The Plumlee brothers should be really good too, but it is very early. Nobody really said they had a championship caliber team coming into this year either, but they just came together......long time between now and next basketball season so who knows what may happen. I'm a Duke fan, but I have to admit UNC could be unbelievable over the next few years with their returning players and incoming recruits!

If the current proposal passes the exec. committee, they will not have to worry about Radford, GW, or CHI - they will be division 1 in 2011......IF it passes, which who knows what will happen there......Graham could make a nice run - Floyd and Giles of course will have something to say about that, but other than those two it could be wide open!

Nope Gman has it exactly right! 1 plays winner of 4/5 and 2 plays winner of 3/6....your basic 6 team bracket with byes.....

Wow

Please don't associate the posts that come from this guy with all Abingdon fans - I know they have there fair share of bad fans like any other high school, but they are not all like this!

If I was still living in Abingdon, I would definitely go see........Richlands and Tazewell!!!! Last year the playoff game was one of the best hs games I have ever watched!

Battle runs a multiple offense, including the pistol and the T formation....just what I saw against PH seems like they want to run the football

Agreed....the later years in the Highlands were pretty weak.....

Abingdon won the Highlands District in 92 - I wouldn't call Gate City or Lee (during that time) "weak as pee"....the others maybe, but not those two. The losses for AHS that year were at Lebanon and at Tazewell in regular season, and at Richlands in region finals. For the more recent appearances, they were totally outmatched at Gate City in 95 and at Grundy in 96; they should have beaten CC in 03, but they didn't.....they were competitive in the 70s and 80s - not the same story since

#1 will host the 4/5 winner, and #2 will host the 3/6 winner in the semifinals; then the highest remaining seed would serve as the host of the region finals

Duke is in as good a shape for a number 1 seed as UCLA - they both have an early loss (MICH beat both of them) I agree that you would think Duke and UCLA should beat MICH easily, but maybe MICH is just better than people are giving them credit for - plus Duke has already beaten MICH 71-56 earlier in the year

I don't know for sure, but I think Quillie Odom and Barquell Rivers were pretty highly rated, and are supposed to be good LBs, but one or both of them have already redshirted I think. Bruce Taylor was a big LB recruit out of SC, but I think they have moved him to DE???

Bath has played 2 damn good teams - Buffalo Gap and Riverheads - R'heads got drilled by the D1 state champ Friday, but they aint bad.....and Gap beat the crap outta somebody - their other loss is to AA Alleghany
