The defense was the key! Bulldogs will have something to say about 2A Championship! And I’m a GW fanMartinsville's Defense seems to be legit. Is that the key to their team? I think Martinsville, Radford, Gate City, and East Rockingham may be the top four at this time. The Bulldogs look tough though...
Don't you dogs hate on me for asking but was GW Danville really that good? They lost to Millbrook before losing to Martinsville. Millbrook had a 1pt win against Kettle Run and lost to Handley by 7. Haven't seen Millbrook or Martinsville but wasn't impressed with Kettle Run and Handley was just ok.
GW did not play Millbrook, I think that was some team out of WVa. But we aren't that good, martinsville that is. Just a little 2A school trying to keep their head above water.

Four best look like Radford, Martinsville, ER, and maybe DR, or GC.
No offense Big Winners, but 2A football isn't 2A basketball, but where it is similar in shaping the opinions of how good a team is is largely influenced by who can vote, yell, or who has the loudest voice on this message board without seeing or knowing much about a team or teams. We saw this is football with East Rockingham as the popularity contest winner. My point is this...Greensville County has an incredible history in basketball and they have great talent every year, yet they have few fans on here and little is known of them in Southwest VA.
In my opinion, the best two teams in the state are Radford and a tie between GC and Martinsville for second. The fourth beat team is likely a toss up between 3 teams. East Rock, Dan River, and Greensville County and if going by history, I would take Greensville County. No offense to East Rockingham, but like in football, they do not play the schedule of teams like Dan River, Martinsville, Radford, or Greensville County.

Don't really follow basketball, I look occasionally to see who won. But football on the other hand...
How did East Rockingham not play anyone in football. 6 teams in regular season in playoffs, one of which won 1a title. Spotswood only regular season loss was to ER.
Let's compare that to the teams you mentioned.
Dan River finished 4-6. But just to go with your premise. 7 teams
Martinsville finished 1-9. 6 teams
Radford. I know that is your team. 7 teams.
Greensville. Finished 6-5. 7 teams.
And unless I am missing your point, you contradict yourself and show a bias. I think I remember you saying you hadn't seen ER in football, dont know about basketball. Yet you are talking about opinions being skewed by who posters have/haven't seen. Thus making it a "popularity contest."
Everything you said about basketball could be 100%, but how you came to that seems flawed
What I took from the post was, and I'm guilty of this as well, was that we shouldn't let hype dictate who we think is the best. All of us were led to believe ER would steamroll everyone and was clearly the best in 2A football but they didn't make the title game, and if they had, would have lost by 40 to Graham.
Maybe I misread it then. Just from reading on here, and not following, sounds like that is Radford in basketball
But Radford is a proven commodity. They've been great before and continue to shine, and their resume is second to only maybe Mavahi. Anyone who has seen them play knows they are totally legit. QMR is prob best player in 2A.
