If I remember correctly the weather was brutal and a major contributing factor. That being said it was certainly a defensive battle and back and forth.

dshreeves 37 Report Share Posted November 20, 2019 I was at the 2-0 Holston/JIB game at Emory & Henry. It's one of the most memorable games I have ever attended. A rematch would be a good story, but like previous posters I think it's unlikely too. I doubt I will ever attend another game that ends 2-0. And thanks to Union_Fan for the link to the news story...

Chappy 72 Report Share Posted November 20, 2019 It was a WILD game. Very cold, windy, and snow on the ground. Neither team could do much, one of the best games I've ever witnessed! dshreeves 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebel3 17 Report Share Posted November 20, 2019 Yes. I was at that game, along with my wife who was 7 months pregnant at the time. Very cold, windy, with occasional snow showers. Holston tried to kick what would have been a very long field goal on the last possession. From what I heard other people in the stands saying, he had made kicks from that distance in practice. The kick never went up, it just bounced on the ground. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chappy 72 Report Share Posted November 20, 2019 He had made from that distance, there was a lot going on in that play. I had a nephew on that team, he told me there were 2 plays called on that attempt. Obviously the kick was one of the calls, the other was if he or the other personal blocker on the other side of the line did not have anyone over them they were to release for a fake. Both were covered and the field goal attempt was made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember a game, I think it was between John Battle and Holston, sometime back in the mid to late 90's, that the final score was 3-2.

Gate City lost a 3-2 game to Radford in the playoffs in 1987, that was in a snowstorm. The Wind was blowing so hard that Radford took a safety, rather than trying to punt into the wind..That was the coldest I have ever been at at game in my life.

sir 3 Report Share Posted November 21, 2019 i think chilhowie (sp) has a chance to make another run to the state championship in that division again. Solid QB and RB with at least one good WR threat in #3 i think is his number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at a high school game in Dayton, Ohio three weeks ago that sounds exactly like this, except there were quite a few more points scored in that one though. The first PAT attempted went about 20 yards wide left. Lol I literally thought I was going to freeze to death that night. And I had three layers of clothes on as well. My hat kept blowing off my head, pouring snow, but it was a good time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SXSW 557 Report Share Posted November 21, 2019 It was so cold they left the buses running the whole game and I went to the team bus at half time and sat with the driver and got at least feeling back in my fingers and toes. 13 minutes ago, swva_havok_fan said: I was at a high school game in Dayton, Ohio two weeks ago that sounds exactly like this, except there were quite a few more points scored in that one though.

The Appy/burton game in 1990 was the brawl in the qtr. button lost state title game to king and Queen 21-20 on a missed two point conversion attempt. You’re correct about our kicking game haha.

It was game 2 after Giles losing to Goochland earlier in the day. You folks from Norton handled it better than most folks from Giles Co would have. Cheers to that I guess. Hadn't seen a screw job on that level since 94 in Peterstown. Union_Fan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
