bluefieldRocks 14 Report Share Posted May 18, 2005 Looks like the opposite of last years scheudule. were going to have away games first, then we have mitchell to play on down the finial couple of games.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
total 12 Report Share Posted May 18, 2005 hey, at least we get a home and away with Graham. haha but ya know what i'm thinking? since 2 Beaver/Graham games in season is totally breaking the mold, then why don't we switch it up and swap sidelines? have the home team actually sit in the home bleachers? that would make another twist.

[/ QUOTE ] No offense gobigblacks, but that news really disappoints me. I'd prefer scrimmaging a heavyweight in the state or Virginia much like Pulaski County last year. Does anyone know who the other scrimmage will be against? Someone said Beckley a couple of months ago, but I was looking at the Beckley website the other day and we aren't listed as one of their scrimmage opponents.

gobigblacks 10 Report Share Posted May 19, 2005 Well, i'd rather us scrimmage someone else as well. We actually do have a lot coming back on defense, just lost two key players, just no offense returning. No clear cut guys right now at the tailback and fullback position. Could be any number of guys, as many as 4 carrying the ball every game. We scrimmaged Ironton last year, which was nothing but a death sentence and we were lucky to get out of there without many injuries, so going from Ironton to Bluefield is better for us. We had ZERO business on the field with them but, when the team you scrimmaged for years (Saint Albans) cancels on you, guess you have to do what you can. I'd rather us scrimmage one of the Ohio teams across the river from us, or even have a grid-o-rama with Wahama and Hannan, but, that will never happen. Just gotta deal with what you can get I guess. Oh yeah, read on the ezboard b-ball board about your good news. Congrats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When is the new turf and other upgrades to Laidley Field going to occur? It would be cool if the teams got to scrimmage on newly installed Field Turf at Laidley. And hey, at least you guys will scrimmage us. We're having a hard enough time trying to fill out the regular season schedule. So from that standpoint I appreciate the fact that PP agreed to the scrimmage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edrforshey 27 Report Share Posted May 19, 2005 When is the new turf and other upgrades to Laidley Field going to occur? It would be cool if the teams got to scrimmage on newly installed Field Turf at Laidley. ----------------------------------------------------------- It is suppose to be done before the start of this season. So I bet you two schools get to play on the new turf. You might actually be the first two, cause the MSAC Grid-A-Rama isn't until that weekend.

gobigblacks 10 Report Share Posted May 19, 2005 Yes, both teams will be playing on the turf. We play @ Ripley in week one, so our coach wanted our guys to get a game in on turf before that game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VHSLhelper 571 Report Share Posted May 19, 2005 Ed : If Bluefield - William Campbell was being considered for 8/26, you have WC at KEYSER that night (unless it changes). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edrforshey 27 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 Director for the William Campbell game when he sent me their schedule. 8/26 wouldn't be any date to consider for Bluefield cause that is Bluefield - Graham Game #1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluefield_Rules 46 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2005 Here's a little bit of info on the renovations to Laidley Field: http://www.wvgazette.com/section/Sports/2005052160 This weekend, Laidley Field was the site of the state track meet. This coming week, Laidley will become a site of construction. According to Lou Ann Lanham, equipment will be moved to the field Thursday to begin work on the new locker room/training room/coaches office ordered by the University of Charleston. The project will cover 6,000 square feet. Digging will begin on May 31. Upon completion of the locker room, crews will begin building the skybox/VIP lounge. The resurfacing of the football field will begin June 20, right after the North-South football game. That project won’t be finished until July 24, a week prior to high school football practice.
