BlueDevilVolMan 15 Report Share Posted September 25, 2022 Does any team here in the coverage area play Tennessee teams? I always liked hearing about Virginia and Tennessee teams playing. I am a Unicoi County fan. I don’t know that we’ve ever played any teams in Virginia. It would be good to play some Virginia teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1inStripes 932 Report Share Posted September 25, 2022 Tennessee and Abingdon just played. Unaka and Twin Springs. There’s been a few over the years and a lot of scrimmages across state lines. Rye Cove scrimmaged at Unioci County in 96. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EH31 2,518 Report Share Posted September 25, 2022 I know that Unicoi played Tazewell, VA back in the 40’s for at least one game. Pretty sure I remember seeing where them and VA High used to play regularly for a while. @BlueDevilVolMan you can go to http://fourseasonsfootball.com/tn.html and click on Unicoi and see all of their results of their past games.

Wolf1207 239 Report Share Posted September 25, 2022 It does happen, but the Tennessee schools are usually larger than the Virginia schools. Abingdon will probably play one or more of them as they are the closest to the enrollments of most NE Tennessee schools. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDHoss 249 Report Share Posted September 26, 2022 Union has played Motown West, Crockett and Sullivan North in the past. I remember Lee playing Knoxville Austin-East back in the early 90s. Gate City has played North, South, D-B, THS, Central, Ketron, Lynn View and possibly Boone that I can remember. There may be others. PV played Volunteer, North and Seymore. Graham has played South and Greeneville IIRC. Appy played Cloudland at least once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V-Cats 472 Report Share Posted September 26, 2022 I would like to see Virginia High pick up an evenly-sized Tennessee school now that the V-T Game is dead Unicoi County would be a good candidate for that if the administration were to consider it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BandanaVTDavis4321 1,717 Report Share Posted September 26, 2022 Gate City and the Sullivan County Schools have been doing battle on and off since the 50s I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gate City has probably played more games against Tennessee teams than anyone not named Virginia High. They had regular series with Sullivan North, Sullivan South, Tennessee High played Ketron, Lynn View, Church Hill before consolidation and played DB, Elizabethton and Daniel Boone.

SwvaOG 601 Report Share Posted September 26, 2022 With less schools to play on the VA side, the VA schools absolutely should look to TN and KY. While GC, VHS, Abingdon, JB, Rye Cove, Lee, Tw and TS can get to TN fairly easily, Union, Central and Ridgeview can get to KY easily. RV has had a KY team on the schedule for the last five years until this year. Union has played several. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the question is, which Blue Devils? Gate City? Or Unicoi County? Our stadium is fairly nice. But it only has one side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
