I have watched several local games here in SW Virginia on NFHS, and it is a BLESSING. With all the down side of covid, this was a good thing to evolve from that time. This year, I've watched Honaker, Graham, the Blues (of course), Tazewell, Rye Cove, Grundy, Patrick Henry, Holston, but never got to see the Loris Lions games on video, only the audio. Needless to say, it isn't the same. You are getting the perspective from what they say, not what is visual. The other day, I googled Hudl to see if there were any videos of the Lions game. Yahoo, there were!!!!
There are 2 links I am going to post on the Lions. Why you ask, they aren't SW Virginia football. That is true, but football season is winding down here and for us "football junkies" there may be those who may enjoy the read and watch the video. Coach Mance was an integral part of SW football here for 3 decades and a native of the area. A Giles Bandana man winning a state championship with them as a player, a state championship with the Richlands Blues, and hopefully in this 5th season as a coach of the Loris Lions a state championship. As far as I'm concerned his accomplishments speak for themselves.
