    Gazette-Virginian Holiday Classic?

    Has anybody heard if the Classic for Halifax is happening this year? I've looked at the schedule on Maxpreps and it shows that Halifax, Bluestone, and Person County are playing each other but they are on different days with games in Halifax and Bluestone but I haven't heard anything about it...

    Any rules prohibiting Mics on players during games?

    The Comet Crazies are (finally) back at it again😁 I’ve thought about having a little mic’d up series for some of the sports this year (Something like this) and I was wondering if there were any rules prohibiting something like this? Obviously it will be a one way mic and the audio will only be...

    Halifax cannot win a State Tournament Game. Handley Advances

    Good game by the Judges with a win in OT. What happened after 1973 that put a curse on Halifax County basketball in the State Tournament? 3 straight years of one-and-done. I’m not bashing any of the guys or the coaching staff because they’re the reason we’ve gotten to that point in the first...

    The unfortunate hypothetical

    In the event that one of the teams in the State Tournament (Which will unfortunately probably happen to at least one team), what will happen to the team? With deadlines for each game played, as well as fall sports starting soon, would they have to forfeit the game? It would be a shame for a...

    Radio Link for Blacksburg and Halifax

    It'll definitely be interesting to see how the 5OT game affects the Comets. I think it matured them in a game-on-the-line situation after starting off the season with two losses to GW. There was a lot more 3s made the past two games than the first two (They didn't make a single 3 in the second...

    4B is bigger and more powerful

    The Comets have been playing Atlee almost yearly at States in Softball and Baseball back when they were in 5a. It's always been a great game between the two teams.

    Halifax advances after 2 loss skid vs GW

    “Third Time’s the charm” rings true for the Comets as they get over the hump with a 72-58 win over the Eagles after losing to them twice last week. They’ll face Pulaski County this Wednesday. Can anybody give an insight on the Cougars? I know they were the 8th seed last year and we beat them...

    Halifax basketball returning Thursday against GW

    I definitely believe that whoever wins the GW/Halifax game will make States. The exclusion of Glass and JF are huge, and (based on last year alone) I only see Salem as a threat. It’s a shame that neither of these teams could reach their full potential. If this was a normal season I could...

    Head Coach Greyson Throckmorton, who lead the team a 7-4 record, has reportedly retired from coaching. I didn’t expect this coming at all. Details will be coming soon. https://twitter.com/johnathank_gv/status/1286669588441300993?s=21

    Halifax loses All-State Player

    UPDATE: He has backed out of the commitment, citing that he’s found a better situation closer to home so his family could watch.

    Halifax loses All-State Player

    All-Star Kevon Ferrell has announced that he will be playing his senior season at St. Benedict Prep in New Jersey. The school is a consistent top 25 team nationally, and has been selected by NBA Star Steph Curry for a documentary called “Benedict Men”. The school has had a number of NBA players...

    Class 4 Boys All-State Team

    Spring sports on hold for 2 weeks

    I’ve heard reports that the virus, unless we find a cure real soon, would peak around May. In that case spring sports may get cancelled, as well as school being forced online. It’s a sad predicament we’re in, especially for the Seniors and the juniors trying to prove that they belong at the...

    Title Favorites for next year?

    Halifax is returning their entire starting 5 (As far as I know), with Roberts only being a sophomore. Davis was a good rotational player we lost, but the biggest loss is Isaiah Hubbard for sure. Sophomore Zack Carter, who was huge defensively in the paint and in the rebound department...

    4a Baseball and Softball Title Favorites?

    Who's the 'Big Dogs" of 4a? Halifax made it to States about every year, but usually fell in the Semifinals (The Exception is the baseball team's 14 inning State Championship heartbreaker against Briar Woods in 2017). We've put up better teams before, but the youth programs for the sports are...

    Halifax 58 MillBrook 61

    They went down 13 early in the second. The crowd was virtually dead and they looked lost out there. They started on a run to go, but went on a run to cut it to 39-31 at the half. The band came by after halftime and got the crowd roaring. They battled back to take a 52-47 lead with 5 minutes in...

    Time to end the “Neutral Site” rule?

    I agree with this.I couldn’t go last year but attendees enjoyed having the game at Averett. Radford/VT/Civic Center/Ferrum for SWVA Averett/Longwood/Liberty/UVA for Southern/Central VA NSU/ODU/Hampton for the Tidewater William and Mary/UofR for Richmond (VCU saves for Finals) George...
