As far as Class 1 goes, Giles would probably stack up well with most of em in Swva Class 1 at the JV level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridgeview’s entire middle school team are supposed to be freshman/sophomores so I reckon they’re pretty good.

Their JV not so much Yea, RV middle school has Cannon Hills little Bro and a bunch of studs. The leagues below them are stacked as well. You can expect players form the middle school jump right in to Varsity play more than likely their freshman year. RV should be good for a few years for sure.

SWVAgridiron 1,192 Report Share Posted September 11 Not just because it’s my team but I think Giles has one of if not the best Class 1 JV team in west. They’ve blown out Blacksburg, Galax, and Radford. They play against Narz Wednesday but it won’t be a true JV game. It’ll only be 8th and 9th graders, no sophomores.

honestjohn 88 Report Share Posted Friday at 03:53 PM How about Hurleys 5th, 6th and 7th grade team. Have outscored Grundy, Lebanon, VA High, Richlands and Grundy again 162 to 23. BandanaVTDavis4321 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their JV not so much Its true. But the hold backs are pretty much all skill guys, not a lot of OL or size. A couple of taller WR types, a running threat QB, FB and one kid that can turn into a burner... slot type. Should be pretty good defensively but need some OL/DL.

Unchained 504 Report Share Posted Saturday at 01:23 AM Union's middle school and JV bunch are beating the brakes off folks. I hear that Eastside is in great shape as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol. RV Middle School won 30+ to 0 and Union's JV team got revenge by winning 30+ to 0. 🤷♂️ Union's JV looked like it will be feeding the varsity squad with a lot of good athletes next. Ridgeview won't see significant contributions from that 8th grade class for another 2 years. I think the advantage goes to Union next year.

Some teams will have 8th and 9th graders playing 8th grade and freshman and sophomore’s playing JV and I’ve heard of some juniors playing for some JV teams.

SwvaOG 451 Report Share Posted Tuesday at 07:59 PM RV has created an issue in that the majority of the should-be 9th grade athletes (8-10) held back last year and are 8th graders this year. It creates a gap the year before them (why the JV team isn't that good) and it suppresses playing time for the class behind it (7th graders and true 8th graders not coming out). It is usually done with the skill position players....the glory boys as I call them. Lol. It is more rare to see the OL/DL kids do it. Times have changed...not sure for the better. I don't remember one kid on my middle school team that was a sports related hold-back. We held back two of ours...one due to the COVID year and the other for maturity/academic performance reasons. I don't regret those decisions as it seemed to work out for both of them. But some or these kids are up to 18-20 months older than kids in their class.

I know of one kid that’s 14 & in the 7th grade while most are still 12 & will turn 13 by next August. It’s kind of crazy to me.
