Northumberland's Mitchell Jett passed away at the age of 79 on July 1. Jett rushed for 2,512 yards in his senior season of 1962 to help Northumberland win the District F (forerunner to the Northern Neck District). This was an era when teams played up to 8 regular season games and that was it as there were no playoffs. Northumberland played 7 games in Jett's senior campaign. He totaled 4,330 rushing yards in his senior and junior seasons combined but no stats were recorded in his freshman or sophomore seasons. Jett's senior season rushing total was the VHSL single season record until 1987 when it was eclipsed by both Terry Kirby (14 games, 2,864 yards) of Tabb and Eric Bates of James Monroe (14 games, 3,039 yards). Jett's brother, Jimmie, was the long-time boys basketball coach at Northumberland who piloted the Indians to a state championship in 1996.
Ironically, Jett's football coach at Northumberland, Jack Eades, passed away in May at age 93.

Inspired by NFL playoff drought topic covered on sports radio show I listen to this week.

What better time to talk about these things than now? The season is on the horizon, getting closer everyday and once the season gets here we will be talking games, players, etc... lost will be subjects like this so lets dive into the Class 2 teams.

These teams have gone the longest without even making the playoffs!
2002 was the last time for Nelson.
2012 was the last time for Fort Defiance and Windsor.
2016 was the last time for Prince Edward.
2018 was the last time for Arcadia, John Battle and Liberty (Bedford)

See any of these teams busting through in 2023?


As for teams with the longest losing streak in the playoffs?
15 straight losses for Nandua whose last win came in 1990!
9 straight losses for Arcadia! 1987 if you can believe that...
9 straight losses for Southampton dating back to 2002.
8 straight losses for Tazewell with their last in 2008.

See any of these teams snapping their streak in 2023?

Freedom ranked #293. They are the only two division six schools ranked preseason top 300. Phoebus #299.

Beginning next year, high school basketball teams will shoot two free throws for common fouls when in the “bonus.” This change to Rule 4-8-1 eliminates the one-and-one scenario and sets new foul limits each quarter for awarding the bonus free throw.

Rules changes were approved by the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) Basketball Rules Committee at its annual meeting April 24-26 in Indianapolis. The recommendations were subsequently approved by the NFHS Board of Directors.

In addition to awarding two foul shots for all common fouls, teams will reach the bonus when their opponent commits five fouls in each quarter and team fouls will reset at the end of each quarter. Previously, teams were awarded the one-and-one bonus when their opponents committed seven fouls in a half and two foul shots when 10 fouls were committed each half.

The Black Knights likely won't be any sort of factor in Region 4D this season, but there are plenty of great opportunities for Woody to string together some wins and begin to build the program he wants in his first year.

Senior midfielder, three year letterman, and 2023 region 5C player of the year Wit Rader earns first all-state honors for the second straight year! Wit was the ultimate workhorse for us in the midfield this year and had a huge impact as a contributor and leader. Congrats Wit!

Varina won the UNC/Mack Brown 7 on 7 today. Beat some serious comp to win it. I know it means very little but it just shows the kind of skill guys they have. Very deep collection of skill guys. Going to be a special year for 804 football.

GW defeated Magna Vista In the Battle of the Border Championship game today at Averett U

Top Gun trophy today went to GW’s Neamiah Cabell the best defensive player of the tournament went to a MV player
