    Auburn vs Lancaster. Who ya got?

    However, I can tell you that I have no doubt that Auburn has elite coaching in many of their sports (especially for our Class I and II levels.) Auburn must have an excellent AD from what I can tell who runs a great show. I have seen them play in a few different sports at the state level. They...

    Auburn vs Lancaster. Who ya got?

    I agree with the above poster. I am not a fan of Auburn in any way. I am sure that both coaching staffs are doing an excellent job (obviously, they are both playing for another state title). I used to enjoy pulling for LHS Coach Rice (who I think retired recently). Being from the Northern...

    My Final Top 10 Of The Season

    As this season has come to an end, I'll finish up with this suggestion just for fun! I think a wild, cool idea would be to unite the Northumberland Offense with the Essex Defense to play against the Honaker Offense and the Galax Defense! True East v West Battle - Top Two Offenses v the Top Two...

    My Final Top 10 Of The Season

    I was talking about the great special teams play by Galax and how the western teams are often way more precise than the Eastern teams. I'd like to add that Northumberland has excellent special teams especially for an Eastern team. I think that the NHS Kicker, James Blake, a 10th grader, (who...

    My Final Top 10 Of The Season

    Just some fascinating stats (to me anyway) about Northumberland v Essex and comparing results to other teams. Essex (14-1) only allowed 9 touchdowns all season in their 13 games not played against Northumberland. Essex only allowed 2 touchdowns in the 3 games v Galax, Altavista, and Sussex...

    My Final Top 10 Of The Season

    I am certainly good with all those well-deserved State 1A Top Ten teams! Great work all season kwhs95fan. (Look forward to you keeping us informed with the basketball season as well.) I still say that George Wythe and Northumberland should be the #5 and #6 teams respectfully but it is just...

    Game Recap Galax Rallies to Capture Class 1 Title

    The Western teams are almost always better and more precise in the special teams phase of the game than most of the Eastern teams. Historically that has always been the case, at least in my observations. It obviously continues. It paid huge dividends yesterday. (It is also without a doubt...

    Game Recap Galax Rallies to Capture Class 1 Title

    Now, Galax is way better than Essex in special teams play. Great job there. Essex controlled the majority of the the game. However, Essex lost due to outstanding/fortunate play by Galax's special teams (all involving the kicking game). 5 huge special teams plays cost Essex the win (starting...

    Game Recap Galax Rallies to Capture Class 1 Title

    Wow - what a devastating loss for Essex. To not allow a touchdown and still lose on a crazy, long field goal that hit the cross bar hard and then somehow bounced in between the goal posts at the very end of the 4th quarter (after Essex having the lead all game). Unreal. Galax earned the win...

    Game Recap Galax Rallies to Capture Class 1 Title

    Congrats to Galax on a highly unusual and quite strange way to win (or lose) any game, especially a state championship. However, a win is a win so well done. (What a kick by that freshman Galax soccer kid!)

    Class 1 Championship

    Dang.... ouch. No wonder I forgot about that one.... I was thinking that the last state championship Radford played in was a 30-0 shellacking in Salem that those cats received from the Essex Trojans. Top that, Big Red!

    Class 1 Championship

    Didn't poor Radford lose their last state championship game they played in to 1A team?

    Class 1 Championship

    Agreed BGfootball95 Now that same 1A Red Team looks to prevent the best 2A teams from winning any state championships as well lol.

    Mathews at Northumberland

    Northumberland traveled to Middlesex last night and had a big set back, losing 49-43 to the Chargers. NHS only scored half of the points they dropped the night before, lots of missed shots and good D by Middlesex. Middlesex finished the season last year in the state top ten so maybe they are...

    Mathews at Northumberland

    NHS Head Coach Kyle Jones has his boys looking good already (only had his team for about a week due to the Indian's success in football). I was a tad surprised to not see Northumberland ranked in the preseason State Top Ten (or even honorable mention). I guess that they will have to prove...

    Jaden Holmes?

    Also, the "system/machine" obviously works well anytime but especially this time of year. However, for the system to work with the continuity of success of powerhouses like a Riverheads or an Essex etc., you still got to have the coaching, size, discipline, physicality and athletic players to...

    Jaden Holmes?

    Agree with that RappriverEHS... Interesting that you said that as yes, losing your top rusher is tough indeed and hope that he recovers quickly. I was also thinking about what you mentioned when I heard about Essex's key injury before the NHS game -that Essex now plays as a system (again...

    Where are the all district teams?

    kwhs95fan should be right in that it (the All-NND 1st & 2nd teams) will probably be in this week's Rapp Times. Only thing I've heard is that Northumberland Sophomore QB Tyreek Lundy was voted the Northern Neck District Player of the Year.
