It's Homecoming for the Bayside Marlins, which annually comes around this time of the year on a Saturday in October. Bayside at 3-3 overall hosts the 7-0 Green Run Stallions, currently the top seed in Region 5A and No. 4 in our VaPreps Class 5 Top Ten state rankings.

We've got ourselves a 67-degree, sunny and windy day that should be fairly pleasant for some Beach District football action.

Before our scheduled 2 PM EST kick-off, let's take a look at our Predictions below...


Green Run (7-0) at Bayside (3-3) . . . A turnover in the third quarter drastically changed the flow of this matchup last year when Green Run rallied from an early deficit and turned a 14-all tie at the half into a 28-14 win. Virginia Tech commit and receiver Jayden Anderson proved to be a problem for the Marlins defense, hauling in three touchdowns from QB K’Saan Farrar (UConn commit), including scoring strikes of 65 and 44 yards. The Bayside defense has given up just 15 points over the past eight quarters, albeit against far less explosive offenses in First Colonial and Landstown. To keep this one competitive, they’ll need to establish a methodical ground game, with Zavion Guidry likely a big part of that effort, and finish those drives off with points.

Matt Hatfield Says – Green Run 48-10
Coach Ed Young Says – Green Run 33-12

3rd Quarter

1. Glenvar I have finishing (9-1) with 23.600. They have James River, Floyd, and Carroll left. I predict they win out and are first but Floyd has been looking pretty good and could upset Glenvar that would possibly put Floyd in first and Glenvar in second.
2. Gretna I have finishing (7-3) with 21.600. They have Nelson, Chatham, and William Campbell left. Out of the top four teams in region Gretna probably has easiest schedule left. Have them beating out Floyd by two points but Ryder points could change and put them in third especially if Floyd knocked off Glenvar.
3. Floyd I have finishing (6-4) with 21.400. They have Radford, Glenvar, and Allegheny left and hardest schedule of top teams left. Have them beating Radford but losing last two. A win by Radford could move Radford to 2 and drop Floyd to 4. Also if they could be at Radford and Glenvar, only losing to Allegheny, they could over take Glenvar for first.
4. Radford I have finishing at (6-4) with 20.500. They have Floyd and Carroll left. I have them just beating Carroll. If they win both get second but if they lose both could end up 5 with Appo passing them for 4.
5. Appomattox I have finishing (4-6) at 19.000. They have just William Campbell and Dan River left and have them easily winning both. If Radford loses to Floyd and Carroll I have them jumping to 4 but just by one power points so depending on Ryder points could still end up 5.
6. Nelson I have finishing (5-4) with 18.111. They have Gretna and AltaVista left and will most likely lose both. Still have not heard if Chatham and them will make their game cancelled up. If so a win against Chatham would put them just one point behind Appo which means they could have chance for 5 but loss would drop them to 6.
7. Patrick I have finishing (4-6) with 17.700. They have Allegheny and James River left. I have them beating James River and would be pretty set to be 7. If they were to lose to James River still have them at 7 unless Martinsville was to beat Halifax would drop them to 8 and if Chatham was to play Nelson and win would also drop them to 8 or with Martinsville beating Halifax to 9 and out of playoffs.
8. Chatham I have finishing (4-5) with 15.777 just barely edging Martinsville for 8. They have Dan River, Gretna, and AltaVista left. Have them only beating DR. Just one extra power point by Martinsville could move them out of playoffs. Also if they make Nelson game up and lose would also move them out of playoffs just as loss to DR would too.
9. Martinsville I have finishing (3-7) with 15.600. They have Bassett and Halifax left. Have them losing both and out by just one point to Chatham. One game go different for Ryder points and they in over Chatham. They beat Halifax they in and could go as high as 7.
10. Dan River I have finishing (2-8) at 13.800. They have Chatham, William Campbell, and Appo left. Only have them maybe beating WC but with a Chatham win have them 9 four points behind Martinsville that could be made up by power points but not likely.
11&12 Liberty and James River are out and probably lose out with Liberty at (0-10) and James River at (1-9).

ALL UNDEFEATED.

I don’t know how many keep up with the Richmond area news but while there’s a lot of good going on, there is its fair share of bad. Lots of young people losing their lives in the Richmond metro (I know it’s widespread but I’m talking about little ole Richmond). I recall a few years back when RPS had 15+ kids either shot or killed during one school year. May not mean a lot to some people but damn am I proud of these kids (Wythe and JM are taking some strides too)!

Congratulations to the Auburn Eagles on being the 2024 VHSL Class 1 state golf champions.

I’d have to go with Phoebus in 4A, Dinwiddie in 4B, Tuscarora in 4C, (although Champe is a great team and I would not be surprised if they won 4C.) As far as 4D, of course I’d love to see Salem win it. Realistically, I think it’s going to be JF or GW winning 4D this year. There’s a lot of teams in 4D this year that can win the Region but my gut tells me JF or GW will be the ones hoisting the region trophy this year.

FINAL IN THE JUNGLE
Louisa - 49
Charlottesville - 14

Thought this game would’ve been a much better game. JF is a solid football team with a powerful offense and stingy defense. Glass had a hard time getting things going all night on offense. The Hilltoppers benched their starting quarterback in the second half and went to someone else who started to have some success. The Toppers tried a field goal right near the end of the game to avoid the shutout but the kick was blocked.

Russell Wilson has been named the 2025 NFL Comeback Player of The Year. Congratulations! Virginia rules the NFL!

Like I said , good team , but has weaknesses that were exposed. Biggest being Lack of speed and separation at the skill positions . Pass defense is terrible as result of this . Kettle Run made adjustments at the half , and Sherando couldn’t or didn’t. Sherando wasnt able to just will and methodically move its offense down the field with its strong line play. Kettle Run is a very good 3A team, and will be a threat at the state tournament level.
