Politics work to divide us. I’ve never seen a beach divide anyone. We all like different beaches, but no one is going to think less of others based on their beach preferences. The same can’t be said about politics. But you’re right. This is about football — so I will stop posting about beaches and food. Well you're def wrong, beaches suck and I will die on that hill moreso than any of my political opinions lolol I think Graham and Central would be the respective faves in each district but Union doesn't lose much and won the region.

Tru Blue 72 423 Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 Okay guys, seems like everyone is taking it all wrong, but I humble myself before everyone and do apologize for any post I've ever made on this board in reference to anything, other than football, I don't have hurt feelings, frankly I don't give squat about my feelings, and yes I posted something I shouldn't have, so as I said I humbly apologize, and hope we can all move on and get back to football. In respect to football, does anyone know when or where Richlands will be doing 7 on 7's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jags52 346 Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 Graham will be the king of the southwest until someone beats them. They still have talent out the ass if they keep developing then they will be a handful. Richlands still has Webb and Cox as long as Coach Tarter feeds that connection they will be in just about every game Tazewell lost a ton including 4 lineman up front and there problem in the past has been all the speed in the world but sloppy line play so we will see if they can develop the young guys VA high has a new coach (who is a great hire IMO) and probably the best running back in the southwest could make some noise Marion played a lot of freshman and sophomores the past 2 years those kids have taking their licks for the past few years. Maybe that has made them tough and they are ready to take the next step. They graduated 9 guys that played every game but only 1 of those played both sides so that 10 spots in stead of 18. Should be interesting to watch Real Sasquatch and Gridiron60 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The better question is when was the last time either Richlands or Graham **didn’t** win the district? Maybe Abingdon in like 2013? Outside of that, I think RHS & GHS have won them all since Grundy in the late 90s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would guess with GC in the 70s, Tazewell in the 80s, and Richlands/Graham having the most since 1990 the following order: 1. Graham 2. Richlands 3. Tazewell 4. Grundy.

BigWinners 1,643 Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 So seems like no other team besides Richlands or Graham has won the SWD under the current alignment. If you count Abingdon, I believe four different teams have won the M7 since its inception. Maybe five. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abingdon won it in 2014, but otherwise Richlands and Graham have been the only two teams to win it since the Highlands District broke up.

I knew they were top heavy but had no idea it had been that long since another team broke thru (Grundy in 2000 as someone posted). In the M7, I'm pretty sure a different team has won it every year last four years. 2017 was Union, 2018 was Abingdon, 2019 was a split involving Ridgeview and Union and 2020 was Wise. I could be wrong tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All went 1-1 against the others. I’ve done some armchair research, and I think the correct answer is 2000 Grundy. Grundy: 9-1 (3-1) Graham: 5-6 (3-1...lost to Grundy) Carroll County: 7-3 (2-2) Tazewell: 6-5 (1-3) Richlands: 5-5 (1-3...oddly, won against Grundy) What a weird season.

BigWinners 1,643 Report Share Posted June 17, 2021 Interestingly enough, Grundy had beaten Richlands 4x in a row before the insane losing streak. Hell in 96 Grundy won 42-0. Then, BUNCH of losses in a row lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richlands just finished up baseball last Monday so I’m sure they just got back to football. Lebanon is gonna be playing til next week (not that it matters anymore) Tazewell was also didn’t finished til Monday but idk how many of those guys played football. VA is has a new coach and finished baseball on Wednesday and track yesterday. Marion is just in the weight room right now. Graham should have had plenty of time to gear up for 7 on 7 I don’t think Tony let’s those guys play baseball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
