When I was in high school and we had these auditions then those from schools with football teams playing for the state championship were given priority for auditions. After everyone from that program auditioned then they got on the bus quick and were on their way to the game.
It’s a damned if you don’t, damned if you do situation for the band students, who should be allowed to audition and potentially be eligible for all-state AND go support their football team.
It looks like Galax is going to make it just in time. They are about about 20 minutes from Salem on I-81 now.
Riverheads has won a lot the past decade. Always with a measure of class. I guess they aren’t willing to lose with class. This is a pathetic display of class the past few minutes.
I’ll eat a little crow here. Clark is the best player on the field. Not to take anything away from CCC but he doesn’t have the supporting cast Clark has either.
The Galax band left for John Battle at 6:00 am this morning for Regional Band Auditions. They are hoping to get to Salem by kickoff.
Just got a text message that the band organizers haven’t even made it through the middle school bands yet. The Galax band will probably be late arriving like the George Wythe band was last year.
Administrators need to get this fixed. It’s been this way for at least 12 years because the Galax band was late arriving in 2011 for the same reason. It’s senseless to schedule something like this at the same time as the state championships.
Not sure of the reliable source, but I heard, that someone heard, that someone told sombody who heard it from a close friend, who was told by a reliable source that the announcement would happen before Christmas break. No mention of who would be announcing or what year it woud be announced, but it's going to be announced.
Heard it from a friend who Heard it from a friend who Heard it from another you been messin' around They say you got a boyfriend You're out late every weekend They're talkin' about you and it's bringin' me down
But I know the neighborhood And talk is cheaper when the story is good And the tales grow taller on down the line But I'm telling you, babe That I don't think it's true, babe And even if it is, keep this in mind
You take it on the run, baby If that's the way you want it, baby Then I don't want you around I don't believe it Not for a minute You're under the gun So you take it on the run
I'm hearing rumors that, in an unprecedented act of revenge, Richlands has pulled off the unthinkable and hired Stephen Maganbauer as the ultimate "eff you" to Salem.

Grayson County is having a hard time adjusting to playing down in Class 1 basketball. They've gotten smashed the first two games out of the gate. Need to find some more homeschool kids to rebuild, I guess.
