Lusk won more games at Bluefield this year than the previous 5 years combined......

Been telling everyone same thing. 7th grade has good numbers 14 and about 6 super good players. 8th grade 12-14 and 10 super good players. 9th grade a really good group also. If assistant coaches son comes out of home school with 7th grade group than WOW

Craig Worrell posted on Twitter that Beeman finished today with 45 carries for 218 yards and 4 TD’s. 
Have yourself a day, young man!

You wasn't lying 

Keaton Beaman has 4 TD’s on the day for Galax.
Kid is just a freshman. Gonna be something to watch as I have been saying all season. 

Good test for our team. Highly doubt we are even close. But if we want to make a run at a state title then these types of opponents are going to help us in the long run. We don’t play in the Arby’s for wins (we would like to win though). We play in the Arby’s to get ready for what we could see up the road the in playoffs. North Meck is by far better than anything 2A Virginia has to offer. 

Not much to say. Our draw sucked. 
Would have liked to have seen us get an opening round win, but it is not in the cards. 
Will still be some great experience that will pay off down the road. Will expose our weaknesses, kids will play in front of an amazing crowd in a big arena, and will give us some humility. 

My brother lives in Cornelius and works in the vicinity of North Meck.  I've seen them play several times.  They feature a trio of D1 recruits with names that will be very familiar to most, if not all.
Vaud Worthy (6'2" SR - PG) is the nephew of James Worthy.  He is being recruited heavily by Charlotte, UNC Wilmington, Winthrop, College of Charleston and New Orleans. Tristan Maxwell (6'-3" SO - SG) is the son of Vernon Maxwell.  His top three schools are Clemson, Florida and Wake Forest. Jae'Lyn Withers (6'-8" JR - SF) is the son of Curtis Withers.  Withers is being targeted by Charlotte, Clemson, Miami, Wake Forest and UVA.   Worthy averaged a double-double (points-assists) last season and looks to distribute rather than score, but he can score almost at will.  In my opinion, he has a very high basketball IQ.  Maxwell can shoot it from anywhere on the floor but will slam one off your forehead if the opportunity arises. Withers is probably the most gifted of the three.  He is a 6'-8" wing with handle, a very good jump shot and plenty of power to work in the paint.  He is very difficult to stop or even contain.
 
 

Very nicely played EH31.  Very nice, indeed!

Funny story about "little league mama's".  I was helping the Galax Recreation Center a few years ago referee some 8-man football.  One of the coaches, who happens to be in administration in the Galax Public School system, grabbed a 3rd grade kid by the facemask and started jerking the kid around while screaming at him for going downfield, rather than blocking.
Mama, in full Army BDU's, came running onto the field and teed off on the "coach".  She beat the tar out of him.  The other guys asked us, "aren't you going to help him".  
Nope, i'm not getting between mama bear and her cubs!

If the coaches and players are as concerned with the horn as the VAPreps community seems to be, Appo might want to inflate the basketballs for Monday.

For real. You would think that horn had pillaged and plundered their village, kissed their wives, and took their dogs.

Rumors of the horn have officially landed on preps. LOL

It would be downright comical if this Hurley team made it to the 3rd Round while last year’s inhuman unstoppable juggernauts faded in Round 2.

Seems like a common theme lately to have local football programs experience vandalism.  Somebody spray painted the cars of several Galax players last week while they were in Independence for the Grayson game.
I hope everyone responsible is caught and made examples of.

Grayson seems to have Dickenson County's number.  Maybe Dixon should have sought some advice from McPherson before facing Clintwood and Haysi.
McPerson is 2-0, Dixon is 0-3.  Who would have thunk it?!?!?

I'm not sure anyone has ever clearly defined "it" but he has whatever "it" is in spades!  #33 is a freshman as well and they are both special talents for the Class 1 level.  They both have brothers that will join them on varsity in two years.

I've been texting back and forth with my brother about this.  I can't stand to feel like I provided faulty information so, I want to get it right and my memory isn't what it used to be.
The first was his freshman season and was a preseason/exhibition game at Radford.  Radford turned around and lost a week later to Concord.  The second wasn't Radford.  Bluefield beat Elon a couple of years after my brother graduated. 

I wasn’t there and have no insight on what happened. What I will say as a former official for a little over 20 years, if I’m going to err, it will be on the side of self preservation!
About 20 years ago while umpiring a baseball tournament at the Moyer in Salem, things got heated between our 3-man crew and some parents. We turned our backs and walked away when one of those parents hit the home plate ump in the back of he head with a bat. The impact gave him a skull fracture.
To this day, Jeff gets daily treatment similar to that of a stroke survivor. He has balance and coordination issues and suffers from slurred speech, headaches and vertigo. 
As I said, I wouldn't turn my back again and will err on the side of self preservation. Even if some think I’ve overreacted!
