One of the best games to watch ever. For those that left at halftime, I know you will regret that. Congrats to Honaker for their display of heart and never giving up!

Good luck JSB! Keep the Metal in the Mountains boys!

Tickets are $10 this week. Programs are $5. Good luck to the Honaker Tigers! Keep the Metal in the Mountains Boys!

I agree with RichlandsAlum completely. The article talks about the lack of student support at ball games. Its true. Headaches over playing time, coach is too rough, or the coach is fill in the blanks. I have thrown together some of my random thoughts. Sad thing is kids are making the choices now. I have seen a travel team be chosen over high school teams already. Seen it happen in a little league game where there were not enough players and a team had to forefit and did not get to play because three of their players went to play travel and left the kids they go to school with and see everyday without a game. Everyone has the next D1 athlete I guess. I miss the days when the coaches developed teams not just individual players. There are some coaches that still do. However with the increasing demand on test scores from teachers and the rigors of coaching it makes it hard for those coaches to do both. So we will see fewer and fewer teacher/coaches and more from the community. Kids will be choosing to play baseball/softball spring through fall and give up their little league teams, fall soccer teams, and some even their football (seen it happen). Girls may give up volleyball in the fall or basketball in the winter for one or the other. And basketball goes year round anymore. For some the kids just want to play and will go where there is a game. Others however are specializing in a sport way too early.

According to coalfield.com you are correct bucfan. All Region D games scheduled for tonight were postponed until Tuesday. All Wednesday night games are still as scheduled.

I had read on here before the colors would be teal/black/silver. Not for certain except for the teal. I guess it's available since the Marlins gave it up to go with tangerine on their new unis.

Pretty cool. You don't see that every day.

Congrats Greenwave! Awesome Job.

Deserve it our not the Hokies are there. I did not hear this much comotion back in 2000 when the 11th ranked Irish went to the Fiesta and the 5th ranked Hokies got skipped. It is just a flawed system all around when you have Saban voting OSU 4th and other coaches voting them 6th to insure no shot at the title. Crazy.

I had heard Florida somewhere. And yahoo has projected vs. Auburn. Oh well guess we may get but whippin # 3 for 2011. But not if we show up and play.

Short season should be fun. Last short season was won by the Spurs if memory serves me right. Could be up for grabs with everyone depending on how players worked during the down time.

C'mon man. No one is bashing any teams from the past here. Just trying to give props to a local team still moving on. Go Get em Wave.

Still winning, but it's more like a team thing than a Tebow thing. He is just the one the spotlight gravitates toward.

Nice article. To me you can motivate yourself as a player in many different ways. LPD Pride is how the boys at Clintwood do it. Seems to be working. Good luck this week. And showem some good ole corn bread and soup beans SWVA football!

Unreal score. http://www.roanoke.com/sports/highschool/wb/301659
