Princeton IMO by far has the best stadium for a high school football game. Bathrooms were really clean last game I went too. Heck I'd even drop a deuce there if need be.
Graham is not that good of a team. Missed a bunch of easy shots, no real ball handlers, can't rebound, they just looked really bad. They may beat some really bad teams but they won't beat anybody that is good. Bluefield really made them look bad.
No clue how this one will turn out. One thing for sure is I hope the G-Men don't come out of the locker room taunting again like they did Martinsville and other teams this year. I would hope they will be more focused on playing football than talking smack.
I would be shocked if Narrows can hang with Graham. This Graham team has really impressed me as well. Biggest issue I've seen most of the year has just been penalties. Coach Palmer and his staff have done an amazing job with these kids. Hope they make a ton of noise in the play-offs!!
Kudos to RHS for never panicking when going down 21. That is a sign of a good team and great coaching. The G-Men were just getting whipped on the lines after the first quarter. Graham backfield couldn't get anything going because they were getting hit/pressured as soon as the ball was snapped. I felt it was very dumb on Graham's part to keep pooch kicking the kick offs!! Why they felt that was necessary I'll never know. Giving a team like Richlands a short field on purpose is insane. Heck, Richlands almost returned one pooch kick for 6 but Graham made a TD saving tackle to stop it. It was an exciting game for sure. Hate we came out on the short end of it but glad we were competitive this year....looking forward to a possible rematch!!
Btw...Graham's uniforms were the best looking uni's I've ever seen Graham wear. The only other disappointing part of the night besides Graham's secondary was how pitiful the Graham band was. That might be the worst band I've ever heard. For sure the worst GHS band ever. I know their numbers are down...but dang.
