    Add me as one who would wholeheartedly agree with this statement. Best team I've ever seen from SWVA.

    Best I ever saw in person were probably Mickey Rogers (Gate City) and Sidney Snell (Blacksburg).

    I got an eagle one round, and my brother got a duck. My eagle was a hole in one on a par 3, and on the first tee box (Richwood) a duck walks out at the end of the tee box and my brother tees off and hits a screamer about 20 inches off the ground. Hit the duck square in the side of the head....decapitation.
     
    Nicest course I ever played was back in the early 1980s while a teenage. Buck Harless flew my dad, his boss, and me to Rochester, NY and we played Oak Hill Country Club. Top-notch track. I was a teenager simply in awe of even being in the clubhouse. Toughest greens to putt still may be Fincastle. I'm a member there and play at least once a week. There are a few pin placements that are straight out unfair. If you are above the hole on those greens you are guaranteed at least a 3 putt....if you're lucky. I've had putts roll back to me and go below my feet, and that's on one-tiered greens (Nos. 2, 9, 10, 13, 14, 17, and 18 have some impossible pin placements).
     
    I play in Captain's Choice events, but they really hurt my game. They make you do things you don't normally do, and if you hit a great drive on a high-risk hole then you're more apt to try it again during times when you're playing your own ball. If I played more competitive golf I would cut out the Captain's Choice events, but since I don't play that many competitive events I will play in them.

    I'm a Graham fan, and I can't listen to their broadcast. They never call the game, just talk about nonsense. When a play does happen, it's "oh, there he goes....wow, what a run"...and then back to the nonsense.

    It's probably a good thing that Stephen Peoples graduated high school last year. He may have broken his own rushing record against Graham this year.

    To answer the question, those scores could stay neck and neck the entire year. Giles may have to add an extra digit to their side of the scoreboard when they play Graham. Defense used to be the staple of Graham teams; now it appears to be an afterthought.

    Correct. Both of my kids go to Richlands High School and told me about this kid weeks ago. They also mentioned some other things too, but like you, I won't report on here.

    A complete head-scratcher for sure. Sam Stowers is an excellent kicker.
