Were sports fans so maybe build another race track maybe a 3rd of the size of Bristol and or try and get any amateaur golf tournament in the area. In sore there are some great golf courses in the area. In sore you can think if some other good ideas. Pure Salmon is on schedule. There is a pre-manufacturee housing materials plant coming to Bluefield. I would like to see the Bluestone developed for recreation. A nice e golf course could go in up there too.

A series of regional school districts would have made the most sense and probably still does. Twin Springs, Castlewood, and St Paul would have been natural consolidation partners Honaker and Council, Clintwood and Pound, Haysi and Grundy, etc It makes too much sense. That’s why powers that be would never allow it. Even though, regional consolidation would help a lot of areas out. Pound area to Ridgeview and some of the Haysi area to Buchanan co., or Honaker would make a lot of sense. redtiger 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s a downgrade in opponent quality and only saves about 20-30 minutes of travel. But….with the loss of talent they’ve had this will help grab another win.

Queue 20 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 Am I correct in figuring that both TW and Tennessee High will replace Radford and (I presume) Lebanon on Gate City's docket?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should’ve kept Pikeville on the schedule. I know it’s usually going to be a mismatch, but the offense that they run would have them better prepared to play Graham come playoff time. Virginia High is a downgrade and still not a guaranteed win. They seem to be looking up lately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably because we like to torment our players and our fanbase -- so we're prolly doing a home/home with Poquoson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you were referencing the distance, but on a serious note, don't want to play the Bull Islanders in 2023 (at least on paper). The team that just won at King William in November 2022 returns basically everyone including the waterboy minus a couple of seniors. That's my early pick from the East to play for the State Title in Class 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poquoson only had one kid that weighed over 200 pounds on the team last year. Unless they pack on some serious muscle this off-season, a team like Riverheads would push them all over the field.

If it's Graham though, the Red Team is going to have to cover in space, in the open field, and they don't like that very much. Would ha e been a good game with RH and Graham this year (2022 season).

Ridgeview has played for 2 Region Titles in a row, and they went 0-2 against the Beavers. I know Va High is improved from what they were years ago, but year in and year out, they are no Bluefield.
