Everyone playing for 2nd

I don't see anybody coming close to beating LCA this year . Better QB then last year with a stronger arm and even bigger Oline Avg 250 or more with the Best RB in state. I just don't see it.
It means absolutely nothing; IC Norcom has the biggest O-Line in the state! And they go ten linemen deep, averaging 6'4-5, 320 plus. You have to play the game.

Amazing golfer!

I just wanted to recognize the amazing HS career of Salem golfer Kathryn Ha.


SALEM SCHOOL BOARD SALUTES GOLF QUEEN KATHRYN HA
The most successful golfer in the history of Salem High School was honored by the School Board this Tuesday night for her historic fall season in Virginia High School League play.

In the month of October, Ha became the first person in VHSL history to win both the co-ed VHSL Individual State Title and the Girls Open State Championship in the same season. On October 14, at the Heritage Oaks Golf Course in Harrisonburg, Ha shot a -2 under par round of 68 to become a two-time VHSL Individual State Champion. She outplayed the Top 60 golfers, both male and female, in Class 4 at capture the crown.

Two weeks later, on the same course, Ha shot a 3 under 67 to become a three-time VHSL State Girls Open Champion.

To top it all off, Kathryn signed scholarship papers to continue her career as a student-athlete at Vanderbilt University today. Congrats! #SampleSalem

STICK A FORK IN THEM

Just to clarify would this stop that region's independent playoffs or would this ground the whole state playoffs? Overton would become the most hated man in Virginia if it's the whole state.
It would delay the whole state and potentially move the whole playoffs back a week…this is why i think it will not happen

As an outsider I will throw my two cents in. We as an American society tolerate breaking the law most of the time when the law is broken in small ways. If the speed limit is 65 and you are going 70 you are not going to get pulled over even though you are breaking the law. But if you go 90 you are getting pulled over. DO was going 90 in a 65 and got pulled over.
Greatest analogy yet!

Hayfield

Good read. After initial reading I was of the opinion it would get tossed as the means to appeal were agreed to as an association member and short of obvious and fatally flawed design courts were reluctant to address "family/member squabbles".

Hayfield

I wonder where they filed the injunction. I wouldn't think a Fairfax Court could hear the case. This could surely cause a delay in the playoffs if the judges are forced to recuse themselves. If the Fairfax Court does hear it and rules in Hayfields favor the VHSL could simply issue forfeits on Friday thus eliminating the issue.

Personally, I find this strategy interesting. There has to be way more to this story than meets the eye. The VHSL and Fairfax Schools utilized the appeal process as designed and a decision was rendered by their peers.

Unless an egotistical idiot is in charge, (I have no clue) there is no way a member school system totally ignores it's membership agreement and jeopardizes other Fairfax County School participants. If the Courts uphold the injunction for which they have no jurisdiction to do so it will set a precedent for every player ejection, or team sanction in the state. Oh my!
Best that I can figure this is a CYA from FCPS administrators looking for a crutch for their line "we exhausted all options". I do not know the relationship between the Fairfax County boards. Are both supervisors and school board elected? If both are elected the taxpayers should let their voices be heard at the ballot box.

Hayfield

Tell em all to stop shooting each other unless you have not heard about hmgun biolence and while you are at it get my kids and my brother to give me my money back.
I mean this most sincerely. You have experienced a traumatic experience and have yet to deal with it. It could have been a dark purple person with green hair to rob you, and that's who you would dislike. Having a gun pointed at you is a very traumatic event, and unless dealt with, it can cause ongoing trauma. I don't consider what you're saying disrespectful, hateful or even ignorant. You are a man who was traumatized by an individual who happened to be a black man, and I pray you can somehow come to terms with your trauma. Peace bro

Handley at Salem

You'll never see a less confident group of fans than you will with Salem. The "aw, shucks" routine wears thin after awhile.
It is both a blessing and a curse that Salem has been so successful. Fans, like myself have seen elite teams (10 State Championship teams---and many other great Salem teams). They've also seen Lake Taylor, Martinsburg, Phoebus, and Dinwiddie over the years. So for good or bad every Salem team is compared to those teams. We know what elite looks like. Tough grading scale.
