Battle and Fort Chiswell very familar with each other

[battleftbl 42]

Information that most wont know. With Coach Wright and Coach James being close friends, Battle and Fort Chiswell has seen alot of each other the past 2 seasons. Last year we played them 5 times over the summer in 7 on 7's. We also played them in a jamboree in Ashe County NC and then played them in a benefit game up at Fort Chiswell.

 

This past summer, they once again played multiple 7 on 7's against each other and then played a benefit game once again. During the benefit game this year, the starters tied 14-14 and the pioneers B-team scored 1 TD late to give the Pioneers the win. You cant put much stock into that game though because it was as close to being scripted as you'll find in a benefit game. These coaches talk 3-4 times a week and knew exactly what the other would be working on.

 

These kids have seen each other over 12 times in the past 2 seasons though...they know each other very well. It'll be a very hard fought ball game tonight between 2 teams that respect each other.
