About a week or two ago the VHSL told us that Manchester would be moving back to Class 6 because their enrollment has grown and that Atlee, Henrico, Matoaca and Varina would have the option to move to Class 4 and James River would have the option to drop to Class 5 from Class 6.

Well it would appear by this article that James River wants to stay put and as long as the VHSL approves the move by Atlee, Henrico, Matoaca and Varina it would mean come the fall of 2021 Region 5C would consist of these schools only:

Highland Springs
Meadowbrook
Prince George
Deep Run
Douglas Freeman
Glen Allen
Hermitage
JR Tucker
Mills Godwin
Clover Hill
LC Bird
Midlothian

The loss of Varina and Henrico will mean the loss of two perennial playoff participants...
