Galax had alot of problems this year, they graduated their two best players

Not to mention from what I've been told there is a lot of attitude problems with this year's team? Galax has more problems right now than most people realize and I'll just leave it at that. On a side note I'm very appreciative of what Mark Dixon and Shane Allen did for Galax football but it's looking like it will be several years before they could be truly relevant again even as weak is class 1 is right now.

Hopefully they get things sorted out. Class 1 football is better when Galax is in the mix. As someone who has been a coach, and pray that I will be again one day, Mark Dixon was someone I followed and have nothing but the utmost respect for. I'm not as familiar with Coach Allen, but obviously he had tremendous success as well

GW did schedule a tough ood schedule and JF would do the same if they played in the piedmont. Jf does not play in the Piedmont they play in the Seminole district and every year that district is a meat grinder. The belief by seminole coaches is that if you survive the district healthy you have a shot to be practicing on Thanksgiving day. It is the opinion of the Jf powers that be that playing a harder non-district games would not help but actually hurt the team. Did JF play a tough schedule? The answer to that question is yes they will be battle tested. Has GW played a tough schedule and I would say they have so they are battled tested. How they got the tough games is irrelevant.

Good chance GW gets Salem in playoffs and JF gets Sherando. Lots of football left before JF plays GW

Any word on Armentrout? When I watched them play Riverheads, he was the best player on the field, and I thought they could be a legit regional championship contender. They still have a good QB and RB, but having him really made them explosive

It's hard to believe Atlee fell so far. They were in a 3 way tie for 7th two weeks ago. The loss last night really hurt them. Losing to Spotsylvania earlier in the season hurt too. King George vs Courtland may be a good game; but I think Eastern View matches up better with King George. Huguenot vs Eastern View is a rematch from early in the season. Is there a chance of a different outcome this time? Big win for Dinwiddie last night, congratulations! Have a good one!

If Ft. Defiance gets Armentrout back, I would not be surprised at all if they topped Strasburg. If he’s rusty or not playing, the Rams should prevail.

CW at Buckingham ought to be a really good game….a finals worthy matchup in the first round. A real toss up IMHO.

If MC’s passing game is on, it could be interesting at Clarke. Not sure MC can consistently stop CC on defense but if they could get on top early…

No idea about Riverheads and SD.

OCBoy thanks for sharing the link to the game. The broadcast was very well done. It was a close game and I found it fun to watch. Not sure why Courtland passes so much in the second half. They are a running team. There were a lot of penalties, it seemed, at unfortunate times. Congratulations to EV on the win. Have a good one!

I agree @BoKnowsSports. Powhatan is getting healthy, is well coached and have some nice weapons. This is not a gimme game. They have to stop our run game and we will need to play sound pass defense. The Courtland and KG game intrigues me. Glad Varina and Huguenot may end up beating on each other again. If Dinwiddie's and King George win in round one it will be three years in row.

Some exciting match ups. The 4 5 game should be really good. Can Riverheads get revenge on Draft? Does chalk hold? It's playoff time!

Powahtan @ Dinwiddie is the best 1st round game hands down!

As always (except against WP), I’m rooting for Scott Moore. Just a big fan of the guy from back when he taught history class and coached my JV squad at WP.

Who is coaching yours? 🤔

Kwhs, what do you think about your boys going down to Courtland? I think KW can win, but they will have to be disciplined defensively. Southamptons offense is solid, but Southampton has also played a weak schedule and nowhere close the schedule of KW and that hurts SH. I think it will be a close game. I also think that if King William wins game 1 against Southampton, they will play in the region championship because game 2 will be easier than game 1.

I've watched a little film on Southampton, and they do have a potent offense. The QB is very accurate and has like 36 TD passes thus far. He's got several good WRs, with the Bradshaw kid looking like the most explosive, despite not being very big. Add to that, they have a 1200 yard rusher as well... But, KW has been extremely battle tested, and the reason they play a hard schedule is because of this time of year. Southampton hasn't played what I'd consider a good team since mid September. Will that hurt them if the game is close in the 4th? I guess we'll all know by this time next Saturday. I feel confident in Coach Moore and the KW staff in having KW ready to play, in what could potentially be a shootout.

Thanks

Phoebus played 75% of their backups the entire game. Smh.

Matoaca wins 5C in a landslide

Congratulations to Huguenot. Undefeated regular season and Dominion District Champions! Way to play tough Monacan.

Congrats to Coach Hall and the Royals. Bounce back Hopewell. You got to believe.

EV vs Huguenot
King George vs Courtland

I think Salem actually wins the tiebreaker off the very odd third tiebreaker (d) which states "A team that played an opponent with an effective nine (9) game schedule(non-recognized opponent, i.e., home school or out-of-state non-public school, or inability to schedule/play a 10th game) shall be seeded ahead of a school whose opponents play 10 game schedules."

LCA is playing a 9 game schedule so if I'm reading this correctly then that tiebreaker should apply and give the seeding to Salem. (b) is H2H and (c) is common opponents so neither apply. If I'm misreading or misinterpreting and we go to (g), which is average combined power rating then I also expect that to go to Salem as I did a brief skim of the numbers from last week and I believe there is too big of a gap for Handley to pick up in a single week.
