Eastern Va has some of the best Athletes in the country, not even close in TN. Just look at the NFL, NBA, MLB, Track, Boxing. Just a few names, LT, Mike Vick, Darren Sharper, Tiki and Ronde, Jamie Sharper, Percy Harvin, Rudi Johnson, Eddie George, Chris Perry, Bruce Smith, and thats just a few in Football. Coaching could be a question yes, but look at the types of kids they are dealing with in the Hampton Roads area. I mean come on it is not even close, Football in VA is in the top 7 in the country.

That was what I was thinking of when I made the post. Though from what I hear most of Princetons 8th grade team will go to Bluefield to play Varsity.

Guys how can you put Phoebus and Oscar Smith in the same Category? Most years Pheobus would beat OS. To me Phoebus is the #1 team in VA year in year out since 2001. They seem to always be in the running every year to win State. I may be wrong but isnt Oscar Smith a Johnny Come Lately? OS just started making deep runs into the Playoffs in 2007 and has only one title since 1970. Phoebus has been the better team winning 5 AAA State Titles all since 2001. So Technically they could be called Johnny Come Latelys if you are a Hampton Crabbers fan. Hampton has won 5 Division 5 State Titles since 1995. They also won 2 Division 6 Titles and 6 outright AAA State Titles from 1975 to 1985. They also were awarded 4 other AAA State Titles from 1942 to 1969. They have 17 total State Titles. I would love to see the 1996 Hampton team play the best team that DB has ever had. That or the 1998 Hampton VA State Champs vs. the 1998 Maryville TN State Champs.
