GREAT HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL GAME! Both teams were punching each other in the mouth.. VA High - 3 Chilhowie - 0

VA HIGH lost 3-1 to Roanoke Northside in 8 innings. Blew it! Had a 1-0 lead and it went to extra innings and the Vikings scored off VA HIGH's ACE to win it!

[ QUOTE ] where is the alltell pavillion? [/ QUOTE ] Richmond I believe! VCU...

[ QUOTE ] You are wrong. For some reason Va. Preps omitted the names of D.J. Simmons from Richlands, DeShawn Strickland of Magna Vista, and Allen Eccleston of Virginia High. They all made 1st team all-region. You can see the complete all-region team (including both division 3 and division 4 players) in the Dec 19th editions of both the Bluefield and Bristol papers. I am sure all other papers across the state had the complete listings also. [/ QUOTE ] Sounds good to me, I was only going by what I had seen. Looks like you cant depend on Va Preps to have their stuff right all the time. THANKS!

[ QUOTE ] there is no division 3 or 4 individual teams. there is a coaches team ( due in Jan. ) and the ap team done by sportswriters who have never seen half of the players on it. [/ QUOTE ] There was a Div. 3 All Region Team. Several Bearcats were on it. It came out the week after the Region IV Championships.

[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] How in the world does DJ Simmons get 1st team all state at DB and not even second team Region IV. I know it is probably totally different group voting...just kinda odd [/ QUOTE ] according to the bristol paper i read simmons made 1st team all-region...... [/ QUOTE ] Simmons may have made ALL REGION DIV. 3 but this is for the entire REGION IV. LITTLE DIFFERENT, both Divisions (3 & 4) are included. For example there are several Bearcats that made All Region for Divisions 3 but didnt make it for Region IV after all teams where included. Eggleston the RB from Va High was an All Region selection from Div. 3 but didnt make the cut here. There are others but that is just one example.

[ QUOTE ] Do you have a link to the all-region team? [/ QUOTE ] I do not, if I did I would have posted it. Sorry!

[ QUOTE ] How does guys from VA High make ALL-REGION when thay get killed by everybody they play [/ QUOTE ] NO ONE KILLED VA HIGH except for Graham! GRAHAM KILLED THEM IN THE MUD! THAT WAS AN ASS WHIPPIN! haha The TAZEWELL game was 7-6 with about a minute left in the 3rd and then a couple of turnovers later it went from 7-6 to 34-6. Va High killed Honaker statically! Honkaer never crossed the 50 yard line until 6 minutes left in the 3rd Quarter but Va High turned it over too many times, and gave Honaker every oppoortunity in the world! Honaker took adavantage of it and deserved the win to be honest. Richlands beat Va High but they beat everyone didnt they 14-0! CONGRATS AGAIN BY THE WAY! So let's take them out of the equation shall we? I believe Tazwell gave up 61 points to Richlands! haha Tennessee High beat Va High and Tenn High is a good program. TN HIGH would beat probably all of the SWD except for Richlands. Too many biased people on here with no real knowledge of games or surrounding teams. You see what you wanna see with your SWD blinders on!

That's why playoffs are so great but thanks for your opinion Gman. ha-ha ... that's what forums are for huh? Some people get a kick outta seeing this stuff.
