tbgfan 856 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 Another possibility is Brookville HS in Lynchburg. On second thought, Coach Woodie probably wouldn't agree to that since "Bluefield is in the middle of nowhere". lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Jason Witten may have been on one of those teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] Actually, he was a senior when they played first here at Mitchell Stadium. If my memory serves me correctly, the game was tied at halftime then he put on a clinic in the second half while the cyclone defense contained Sugar Ray and Elizabethon pulled away to win 40-20 I think...The second time we played at Elizabethon in 2000 we were driving for a winning score late when sophomore quarterback HT Matthews fumbled a snap from center late and E-town won 26-20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CopperRidge 10 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 How about Gate City? Love those games. Always close. GC returns a load of talent for 08. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMan 3,569 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 Rumor is Graham has found a 10th game...its a first but it isn't the first time these two have played. All I can say is...WOW!

hoard 18 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 I'm guessing it's either Lebanon or George Wythe, possibly Giles. The "first" probably refers to the first time Graham has scheduled a Group A team. Graham has played all three previously as all used to be in Region IV. I think they played GW and Giles in the regular season following the SWD split, and of course Lebanon was in the SWD and Highlands. Gate City would be most familiar with Lebanon, then GW. I don't think GC has played Giles since the early 80s. I feel like I'm in a Batman movie trying to solve clues from the Riddler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoard 18 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 OK..there's also a possibility it could be William Campbell. Not sure G-Man would get as excited about the other teams I mentioned. Graham has played them before, as has Gate City. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GetMoney55 11 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 if so, id like to see that game. From what ive heard WC is losing a good amount of players and Graham is returning a lot. If this game were to have been this past season, i would have paid to see a blowout. Now i'll pay to watch what i presume will be a decent game.

[/ QUOTE ] I don't know who you've talked to, but WC will be returning a number of keys player from this past season. They were very young this season (2007), with a number of sophomores seeing significant playing time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GetMoney55 11 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 i had heard that they were losing a lot of players. granted i havent looked at anything refering to their roster, so i am making this statement solely on what i have heard, but i was told they were losing their o-line and their good receiver who killed us on that reverse.
