McClung was phenomenal on offense tonight! He's the reason GC won in combination with Graham unforced turnovers. Martin was the best allnaround player on court even if Graham lost. He is strong on offense & defense. Kudos to GC & good luck in the finals! Hopefully, McClung & crew can beat R.E. Lee this go around and bring title back to SWVA.
You have to be kidding, Martin best player on court.

While we do not agree a lot... or ever. I am with you on this. Those Hurley Rebel's bring the best out in us.
Sorry to inform you but the Hurley Rebels have nothing to do with this topic. Someone is upset because someone didn't get to play enough, and they quit. End of story.
Richlands gets in either way. Richlands is coming to Union. Don't know if it's true but also heard Richlands big boy line backer Logan Justice will be playing.
Nostalgia really is a stupid argument. That system was extremely flawed and excluded teams from actually proving themselves in the playoffs against common competition that could adapt.
Basically you want an easy road for a powerhouse team, while everyone else suffers, seem "valid." Just say it, because how the Old system was actually watered down the playoffs and had 0 honor to them.
I value the new state championships more than any other, it proves you survived the gauntlet and that you had depth developed to actually win.
Edit: I do not trust our officials enough to make regular season game hold that much weight on a teams future.
Atleast in the playoff games you get the seasoned officials who "might" have a clue as to what they are doing.
Are you trying to say that we have some bad officials in Southwest VA. If you are, you might expect to get the hammer. That is a no no.
