Guest Stang02 Report Share Posted August 3, 2004 I know it's just the first day of practice and some will quit by the first game but I was just wondering ....What were the numbers out for everyone's teams?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pdfootballguy 10 Report Share Posted August 3, 2004 From what I understand, Magna Vista had around 70 out today counting a few JV who came out during the varsity practice. JV starts next monday so that should bring that number of 70 down a little bit but not much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olewave 44 Report Share Posted August 3, 2004 does magna vista have a game for aug. 27 ? or do they open the first of sept. if it is not the end of aug. then they can not open practice until next week. you have to go by the twenty day practice rule. maybe someone from bassett needs to start counting. magna vista has had some trouble figuring out vhsl guidelines before. just wondering.

pdman 10 Report Share Posted August 3, 2004 They don't open until Sept. 3. Why does it have to be just Bassett to start counting,I'm sure Martinsville, Tunstall and the rest of the Piedmont would be just as interested. Also I'm sure some of the D4 schools in the SWD and the Highlands would like to know the answer to that also. Heck, I heard they have been practicing for a couple of months anyway!!

olewave 44 Report Share Posted August 3, 2004 page 93 of handbook states you may not have more than 20 practices before your first game, not counting sunday. two a days count one, scrimmages count one. if you start on aug. 2 and do not play until sept. 3 you have to take off at least eight days not counting sunday. (28 days) if martinsville still has the first two playing dates open, then it really gets interesting when they can practice and when they can not. just food for thought.

ghs70 10 Report Share Posted August 3, 2004 WELP! for Graham as Coach Carlock reported to the BDT, there were 60 players total. After day two of two-a-days the count is down to 58... A few more expected to quit. This is one of Grahams toughest two-a-days practices but still the BEST! Â GO G-MEN! G-MEN PRIDE! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liljrice86 10 Report Share Posted August 3, 2004 magna vista has an open date august 27th, but are planned to go to pulaski for the touchdown classic, if bassett counts up the practicing days they will be in the same boat, they also have an open date on aug 27th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stang02 Report Share Posted August 4, 2004 Mt. Hope has 33 out for the team and there was rumor that there will be one more that will go out. If I know Coach Souk then he will probably have that guy run about 200 steps for missing the first couple days of practice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pdfootballguy 10 Report Share Posted August 4, 2004 I want to correct my previous post on how many were out on Monday for Magna Vista. The number I had was just a visual estimate. The Martinsville Bulletin this morning reported that the Warriors had over a 100 athletes out (40 Varsity and 60 Junior Varsity). It also mentioned that most of Laurel Parks JV team from last year was made up of 8th graders and the influx this year is partly due to that. The only numbers problem that Bassett, Magna Vista, Fieldale Collinsville, and Laurel Park has had in the past was the fact that there was not enough to choose from. This year with the consolidation it looks like both Bassett and Magna Vista have a load to choose from and build on. Good luck to everybody on the upcoming season!

RenegadeMuscle 10 Report Share Posted August 6, 2004 Westside has in the neighborhood of 37 players above the 9th grade level. I heard Wyming East is down and a family member of mine watched Liberty practice and said they only had 19 players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tide73 10 Report Share Posted August 6, 2004 We have around 52 players 9-12...How does Mt Hope, Liberty, Scott, C-Ville, Midland Trail, Iaeger, and Independence look in practice...Does anyone know?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
footballfreak 10 Report Share Posted August 6, 2004 shady has about 34 or so out. i figured liberty would have more ppl out. independence practices at night. does neone agree with night practices in august? i mean there are exceptions for teams in the kanawha valley but i mean when you are in places like independence where it only gets 85 thats kind of ridiculous.

Â [/ QUOTE ] Â People have died from heat stroke in a lot less than 85-degree temps. Why not practice at night if that's what the coach wants? You play at night, so what's the difference? Why not avoid the heat of August by practicing at night? You can probably get more out of your players that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PioneerPA 11 Report Share Posted August 7, 2004 Wayne has 61 from what I've heard...down a few from past teams...middle school (7-8 grades) is expected to have 30 though, so the numbers will be back up in a year or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CougarFan 10 Report Share Posted August 9, 2004 If Magna Vista doesn't open the season on August 27, then they have started practice a week early. They should be starting practice today (Aug. 9). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
