I saw them early in the season. They are good and getting better but not like the boys team. Wouldn't be a contender in one of the larger classes. Their best player went to Courtland two years ago and a private school last year. Plays for Team Loaded of course.

Imhotep is a big-time program. Here is a preview of their team for this season:

They've also pulled a good big man from Baltimore and a point guard from a private school in Northern Virginia.

There was a Clinch Valley District from 1970-78. Original members were Castlewood, Cleveland, Council, Garden, Honaker, Hurley, Lebanon, Pocahontas, St. Paul, Twin Springs, and Whitewood. Haysi joined in 1972 and Cleveland closed around that time. Twin Springs left a few years later. In 1978 Honaker, Castlewood, and Lebanon left for the Hogoheegee and the remaining schools became the Black Diamond.

This is what I have for the Lonesome Pine. 

1960-61: District formed when the VHSL added a Group I-B. Appalachia, Clintwood, Coeburn, Ervinton, Norton, Powell Valley, Pound, Wise, Jonesville, Pennington Gap, St. Charles were original members. Previously these teams had played in Group II, District 8.

1965-66: Pennington Gap rejoined

1970-1971: Big VHSL realignment. Pennington Gap and Gate City left.

1972-1973: Haysi left

2001-2002: Gate City joined

2007-2008: Gate City and Coeburn left

Calling the Falls Church News-Press a newspaper is almost giving it too much credit, it's basically a blog in print form that's given away for free.
