How many times over the past 8 seasons have we said ‘Riverheads run ends here. They can’t match up with…..”? Every single time, Riverheads does more than match up. They win more often than not. Lord Botetourt, Christiansburg, Stuart’s Draft, Central Woodstock, Poquoson, Glenvar…… At what point do we give them the credit they deserve and stop projecting with wishful thinking? Bold take maybe but I don’t believe this game will be very close. Riverheads by more than two TD’s.

CalPreps updated overnight. Here is what it shows. Galax 27 - Essex 21 - 62% favoring Galax. Riverheads 28 - Radford 27 - 53% favoring Riverheads.

I’m happy to be wrong. With only 4 seniors starting, it’s looking pretty good going forward. Shane deserves a lot of credit. If for no other reason than just keeping the kids pulling in the same direction after that 1-3 start to the season. He could have easily lost the team after that start.

I appreciate your explanation but it’s not my “beef.” I was simply offering an overly simplified answer to the question “why such a long gap between games?”

I was just reading some of the threads on this subject on NCPreps. It appears the North Carolina General Assembly got involved and took control of the playoff system away from the NCHSAA. The General Assembly is placing a 64 team maximum per classification and NCHSAA has to stay within those, plus several other, parameters. I was surprised to learn North Carolina has 300 more high schools than Virginia. I knew NC had more but not that many more. NC has 686 schools to VA’s 386. If NC has 8 classes with 300 more schools, it doesn’t make sense for VA to have 6 classes with 300 fewer schools. Not one person in those threads was happy with the changes coming up in 2025/2026.

🤣🤣🤣

In all honesty, if LCA is allowed to compete in VHSL, everyone should be able to transfer and play where they want. It’s not like VHSL has a leg to stand on if anyone got caught recruiting. Threaten a lawsuit, they’ll cave like they did with LCA and Grayson County.

I’m just having a little fun since Hill and Clements are both from Mount View.

Reyshawn Anderson from Union is Region 2D offensive POY. Omarii Hill from Graham is the Region 2D defensive POY. Mount View representing. Would really be something if Clements had won some awards. Mount View could have both offense and defense POY in 2D.

Omari Hill was the SWD defensive POY.

Not yet.

Creasy and Edwards tied.

Clements isn’t even the POY in the Southwest District.

Well, that’s a shame. They have the best system going right now in my opinion. I guess the Charlotte area schools are tired of not winning state titles.

No they don’t. They’ve had 4 since 2020.

Reduce the number of classifications!!!

Is Blacksburg the last team to play on the road throughout the playoffs and get to the state championship game? Impressive accomplishment for Galax. Haven’t played at home since November 27.

You’re supposed to. They’ve been doing it this way for a few years now. Not sure how hard they enforce it though. I don’t think they have people sweeping the stadium chasing people out.

@RedPrideNationis on top of it. They clear the stadium so you can’t pay once to watch both games.

Pretty damned accurate back in June!!!

Class 2 at 11:30 Class 1 at 5:00

Out of reactions so you get this. 🤣🤣🤣

What a time to run out of reactions!!! Outstanding content from you, sir. Well done!!!

Couldn’t agree more. Honaker did what they had to do. Jump on Galax early. But that physicality wears on you over time if you’re not accustomed to it and prepared for it. No offense to anyone intended here but you can’t get accustomed to it and prepared for it playing Honaker’s schedule.

Isn’t Grayson the largest A school in the state now……again!!!
