I forgot about Honaker The sweetest thing about that 2011 Clintwood team and the 2012 GW team was the following week, they both went east with huge fan turnouts to semifinal games after a week of internet chatter about how we had zero chance and came away with wins. To sweeten the pot, 2011 Galax and 2012 Honaker also took care of business at home in the semis, and we had two years of nothing but west representatives in the 1A title game. Giles stole the show in 2013 with a 2A championship to boot. Absolutely my favorite stretch of time as a high school football fan. 02GW12 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had 6 turnovers that day. Some should absolutely be credited to Clintwood, but you cannot win when you do that. It’s a miracle the final was as close as it was. That 2011 team was much, much better than what we had in 2012. I’ll die on that hill lol it just didn’t work out for that team. And that’s not taking a thing away from our 2012 team.

I dunno about that, but they did lose by 50+ to a Grayson County team that Galax easily handled in the regular season. Clintwood went on to beat Galax in the title game. Gavin Meade was the workhorse running back for Clintwood in both ‘11 and ‘12. I distinctly remember a Mullins kid or two also. Great teams!

Yes they lost bad to Grayson County early in that season to. I just renewed the Union game because I was at it and remember a lot of games about to mail it in on that team until they just turned it on. Those teams were so evenly matched I believe Clintwood and GW would have split evenly if they played 10 game series'. gwloyal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichlandsAlum 678 Report Share Posted September 19, 2021 Didn't post last night, but just in case anyone cares: Amherst 34, Liberty (Bedford) 0 After jumping out to a 3-0 start, the Minutemen may be hard pressed to win another game until the season finale against Jefferson Forest. My son didn't dress out because he's been fighting a sinus infection this week (not Covid -- we have proof). Which is a shame, because he would have seen a lot of playing time on the kickoff return team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bishop Gorman has become the school for celebrities who have kids who can play major D1 end up going there to play football. Snoop Dogs Son went there and over last 15 years, BG has had a bunch of top 10 national finishes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
