LPD Predictions

I heard PV got into a little scuffle at their latest 7 on 7 match. May have been against Harlan Co.

So, if you give us those 3 wins that leaves 7 games with GC/HC/LEB/Richlands/CW as definite loses. Which leaves the JIB/JJK games, we beat both teams last year and I expect them like us to be worse than they were last year. Odds are we split, I'm going with 4-6.

Lebanon was hit hard by graduation if I recall correct.

No one is really talking about Lebanon which is kinda scary.

I'm embarrassed to admit I should know that because I was on that team. Not a starter but there nonetheless.

I am thinking 88 but I may be wrong

They still have some athletes, but if I'm not mistaken they took a beating on their lines through graduation.

PV was bad last year and its supposed to be alot worse this year. . . i wouldn't at all take a win over lee for granted, pv has a slim chance at beating leb, JIB will def beat PV, and sadly so will JJK.

3 and 7 or 2 and 8

just saying depending on how badly your team is falling apart when they are out of the play offs at 1-8 or 2-7, 2-8 or 1-9 could happen

Gate City
Aug. 27 Richlands
Sept. 3 @ Tazewell
Sept. 10 @ Sullivan South (TN)
Sept. 17 Lebanon
Sept. 24 Appalachia
Oct. 1 @ Bluefield (WV)
Oct. 8 John Battle
Oct. 15 @ Virginia High
Oct. 22 Powell Valley
Oct. 29 @ Lee High

After Gate City playing last years schedule the way they did I can see us being 9-1 again.
I wish I could say 10-0 but Richlands returns so much talent, but who knows we play worlds better at home and we won a war at Richlands last year. It's a tough schedule but we return 3 all state players who all play both ways. Numerous starters return we replace 4 players, 2 on D line and 2 on the O line, and they are both patched up with out missing a step.

Changes on offense are inevitable(SP) with the moving of Dusty Clark to RB and Nick Bowen to QB or the two spliting time with Dusty (the 2nd team all state saftey) playing diff skill positions on offense. The backfield is a classic Gate City stacked, with Joeseph Vaungh (2nd team all state RB) at FB, Seth Clark (2nd Team all state LB) at FB and Dusty at RB I don't see anyone stoping that running game. Then we you account for the line that was steller last year, returns 4 players with significant playing time last year and fills the center spot left by senior aaron stokes with Aaron Reed (coach reeds son) who is a great freshman and should compete right away.

Anyone care to critic GC this year?? It's a rough schedule and the season could back fire in a hurry exp. leb@wise.

IMHO GC should be the class of SWVA they did MUCH better last season than I thought they would with there schedule.......IMHO the only games I would worry about would be South and Bluefield.

The only thing that I think that may hurt them in the region is if they get to workud up over where they are playing there game at Last season they were a better team than Leb but it seemed to me at least that they let the turf at UVA-Wise get in there heads.
