what is the rule exactly?

[observingthegame]

Guys on the radio said they thought the game would be on Saturday, but not sure where they got this information. I thought the rule from VHSL was 3 1/2 hours and then it must be on Saturday unless both teams agree to play on Friday. Giles almost never plays on Saturday if they don't have too, so I would be very surprised if this game was on Saturday.

Its 3 and a half hours.

By car but by bus over 4 hrs....

Hellfar it takes a ½ hour if you're lucky to get to Duffield.

Re: By car but by bus over 4 hrs....

It takes a while just to get out of Lee, haha. Mapquest has it just over 3 hours, and I'm sure that's what they will go by.

we'll see what day they decide to play on it

Yeah it's one of those as the crow flies, this is the way you go...

School buses and mountain roads are a hoot.

Luckily from Weber City you can take the Wadlow Gap short cut over to 11W above Kingsport and over to I-81 at Bristol instead of taking 58 between Gate City and Bristol so that helps a lot.

My Mom lives about 6 miles above Saltville and we hear that oh you're only 12 miles from Richlands...yeah but that crow gets to fly those 12 miles us people have to drive that 35 miles in a car that takes over an hour, if you're lucky.

Heck, I'm just thankful Giles is the higher seed and I'm not making the trip from Staunton to BF Jonesville.

Jonesville radio station saying game will be Saturday, at 2 p.m., per their twitter feed...

I was told Coach Williams said

to the players, that if Lee won, the game would be on Saturday.
