GW at Reidsville

[District2sports]

Looks like the Eagles announced on their Fb page that they will open the season at powerhouse Reidsville on Aug 29th. Coach Morrison then added that he wishes he could get Reidsville on the schedule for basketball too. Always thought the 2 should get together more often.

I don't remember GW playing the Lions in the regular season in basketball. Maybe in the holiday tourneys. They were in our Jr Hi conference. Would be a good gate esp with the new gym.

Yea GW has a tough non District schedule this year
Reidsville
Glass
Amherst

Eagles should be battle tested and scrimmages with Heritage and Gretna

Last time I saw a Reidsville team play they brought their JV team and played at GW 5 or 6 years ago. Starting jvqb for GW got hurt early in the game but not sure it would have mattered. You could tell the Reidsville kids were all around more polished football players. And it wasn't related to GW coaching, it was just evident that the Reidsville players had more experience and had been exposed to better coaching throughout their youth. They weren't very big but were hard nosed, flew to the football and played disciplined. Similar to a Dinwiddie or Salem. Can't wait for this game.
