JRs season ends 4-2 at Martinsville w some crappy coaching and less than desirable officiating. Martinsville should take the next round but I Don't see them within 3 goals of Giles, only thing that may keep it close is playing on the turf. According to Roanoke times, Nelson w 1 loss to JR gets dropped by Appo 5-1, Giles runs over Glenvar 8-0 and Dan River sends Radford home.
That score was the Appo Nelson girls game. The Nelson boys defeated Appo 3-0. 2 late goals by Nelson stretches out the difference.
Yes, well done Arcadia. They lost both regular season games to Nandua, but are advancing to the next round. I guess the Region A reseeds for the semi-final because according to the VHSL brackets, Arcadia is playing Greensville instead of Maggie Walker.Here we go:
Giles 8-0 Glenvar: Pretty good showing after being off so long
Martinsville 4-2 James River: If you allow Travis to score three, there is no way you win.
DR 3-0 Radford: Thought it would be a one point game...shows what I know.
Nelson 3-0 Appo: I really wanted this match with Martinsville.
Maggie Walker 1-0 Nandua: interesting...
Arcadia 1-0 Bruton: The little 7 seed that could.
Nottoway and Greensville both win in Region A as well.
Region D goes down to the following:
Graham v. Lebanon
VA High v. Union

P.S. Walker should have been a 2 or 3 seed.
Here we go:
Giles 8-0 Glenvar: Pretty good showing after being off so long
Martinsville 4-2 James River: If you allow Travis to score three, there is no way you win.
.
Giles 6-1 Dan River
Nelson co. 3-1 Martinsville
These two will play Friday night.
Giles by 4, with a rematch in the state semi's and on the girls tournament any guesses as to why the VHSL "reset" the brackets starting with the semifinal games?
Just out of curiosity, I looked at the map: Arcadia has travelled 210 miles (Goochland), 131 miles (Bruton) and 172 miles (Greensville). They'll travel 180 miles tomorrow for the Region final. Sitting on a bus for hours, playing a game and then getting back home late in the night is tough. They do have a lot to be proud of.Region A:
Arcadia moves on 1-0 with Greensville to play Maggie Walker (Won 9-0 over Nottoway) in the finals.
Regardless of result of the final, Arcadia has a lot to be proud of.
So the final 8 will be:
Maggie Walker
Arcadia
Robert E. Lee
George Mason
Giles
Nelson County
Graham
Virginia High

Lee up 2-0 end of first half
4-0 Stonewall still first halfAny update on the 1A game with Stonewall?
The local paper (The News Leader) didn't even list the score in Saturday's print edition (which costs $41/month).Lee 3 Mason 0
Lee played an excellent game and deserved the win. Mason was unlucky with one shot off the bar and two shots saved off the line by defenders. I've heard that Maggie Walker beat Arcadia, but haven't seen the score. Walker will host Mason and Lee will host Arcadia. Another long bus drive for them.

Don't feel bad. Not even a mention of the Riverheads baseball and softball teams winning regional championships for the first time in history. I mean in print or online. That's pitiful. Online stories right now are 3 stories on Lee soccer, 2 on Draft girls soccer and the story about Fort and Waynesboro leaving the Valley District. Disgraceful as the readership goes beyond Staunton. Drop the print edition and just go online for $10 a year when they run a special offer. There is certainly a bias towards certain teams like it or not.Thanks - but you'd think it could put it in a $41/month print version. The match was over at 3 pm - plenty of time to meet the News Leader's 5 pm deadline.
Giles 4-0 Nelson County.
Nelson Defense played very well. Just couldn't get any possession together, so they took a beating all night long. Giles will host loser of Region D today. Nelson makes a very long trip to either Bluefield or Bristol.
