Virginia High and Powell Valley varsity tied 28-28 after 2 qtrs, great game, very entertaining to watch for preseason.
Each game varsity played 2 qtrs, JV played the last qtr. I left after VHS/PV game so someone else will have to fill us in on the last two games.
Chilhowie played very conservatively and substituted often, starters were lucky to play one qtr in each game. They are big but seem to lack speed and inexperience seemed to show. The Warriors will need to get it together or it might be a long season, maybe it helped them though.
VA High looked very good in my opinion. Thurman has already made a difference from what I saw tonight. The players were fired up and the spread offense was working well, passing and running well on CHS and PV. Bowers looked good throwing and running the ball and they seem to have some good athletes to pick from. Might make some noise this year.
I was impressed with Gate City's QB #15. Very speedy and accurate thrower. Chil couldn't seem to contain GC's speed. They ran the ball a lot but made good passes when needed.
PV and VHS couldn't stop each other. 56 total pts in 2 qtrs. Pinkston ran wild and picked apart VHS' secondary, that seemed to be VHS' biggest weakness, they got burned quite often. Pinkston is a stud and looked to have good backs and receivers. Offense looked really good but defense couldn't stop VHS. Both offenses looked really good though. Pinkston made an incredible run of about 25-30 yds for a TD on the last play of the qtr to tie VHS after a wild sequence of events. That one game was worth price of admission.
How does Virginia High look this year compared to last? And what does that say for Powell Valley when they couldn't put them away? Va. High has never been overly great in the past few years, have they? I'm wondering if the PV we saw last year is the same one we'll be getting this year. I hope they've made some improvements. Granted, this was just a jamboree and there's still lots left to see.
PV's defense seemed like it needed work.
PV looked great on "O" but their "D" was ify! There was a few times Virginia high had them stopped to 3rd and long and give up a big pass play. Over all PV looked pretty strong as long as Pinkston stays healthy; as for Virginia high, a complete flip flop of the last few years. QB looked great as did RB #20 Dock, and they have some athletes at wide out. The "O" line on looked pretty solid too. Their "D" was a little shady though; I think Thurman will be making some moves at a few positions and they might be a surprise how they do this season? Anyway it goes great game..... will enjoy watching both of them this season!
You know, now that you mention it I completely forgot that Gretna's coach has taken over at Va. High. I feel like a complete idiot having let that thought slip. Of course they're probably going to look better under his direction! I bet he has helped them out a lot. I wonder how they'll do throughout the season this year compared to the last few.Quote:

I saw some of GC and Chilhowie. Chilhowie just didn't look like they could really contain Gate City.
After PV/VHS I had to head home to avoid any possible race traffic and because I had some family coming home.
If they can find a defense they will go far. Good athletes at skill positions. However, i believe this will be a 6-4 7-3 year for them with next year being thier coming out party so to speak. Same goes for GC...ok this year and breaking out again next year.Quote:

Yeah looks like poss. 7-3 hmmm maybe better
After week 3 against Tenn High that will tell you how their season is going to go!!
Clintwood looked great tonight. Meade had a couple overthrown with open receivers though. Running game was good. Defense played just good as the offense. But had some trouble wrapping up and staying at home. Two pretty important things. Honaker ran a couple of reverses too well for my liking.
Pretty happy with the effort by Clintwood. Don't overlook the fact that everybody was in the game I think, and quite a bit of playing time for most. Quick tabs had Honaker with less than 30 yards at the half so some success as you said, but mostly against the younger players. Honaker wasn't as physical as they normally are, and either due to unhappiness with their early play, or just feeling as they didn't have much behind them, kept a lot of their starters in most of the scrimmage. It was very nice to see Clintwood take it I think 14 plays on the first possesion and march down the field. Lots of room for improvement but there was some things that looked better this week than last week IMO.
PV played alot of backups against Abingdon and won 10-6, nice to see we can kick a field goal. We seemed to do better on defense when we moved to a 4 man front, not sure how much of that is due to Abingdon or what. VHS didn't score on us when Myron was on the field except for their final drive, he makes a world of difference on the defense. I'd expect he'll see a ton of action both ways in close ball games. I came away thinking that PV can score on anybody and still has a way to go on defense. I still don't think the kids are on the right page in terms of alignment, one play in particular I remember it appeared we were in man coverage with our safety (20 yards off the ball) playing a guy in the slot, the pass was overthrown and would've picked off had our defender not fell. We'll be alright, schedule is brutal but I think we'll contend. Since I've been following high school football this is as wide open as I've seen it. CW people, is Honaker that bad or CW that good? I heard Honaker was down but shocked by the scores Lung was sending in throughout the night.
Didn't get to see last week's game. So I have no comparison. But rereading what I wrote, I do make it sound like Clintwood didn't play very well but they did. The 42-14 score shows that. I still noticed some wrapping up problems with the 1st stringers though. Nothing too bad and probably nothing to worry about. It was worse with the 2nd stringers yes but that's no surprise.

I thought Clintwoods young players did well playing most of the 2nd half and IMHO holding there own
Still plenty to work on before they strap it up for real
Any TN scores? DB?
Farragut beat DB 26-8. Alcoa beat Bell Co, KY pretty soundly I hear.
wow!Quote:

Yeah, Bell was hanging in there early, moving the ball pretty well especially on the ground. Game was tied at 14 at the end of the 1st and then 21-14 at the half...Bell was driving on Alcoa in the 2nd qt at one point, appeared to be on their way to scoring, but then fumbled it away and Alcoa responded going up at halftime and from then on it was all Alcoa.
Yeah I was just about to post that. No surprise really. Alcoa is a 5A or even 6A talent. They have always owned the 2A.
Alcoa has to much speed for Bell, the only chance Bell had in that game was to mount 2-3 6-7 minute drives. Anybody got a Middlesboro score from this evening?
Middlesboro lost 28-7.
Kind of figured that, know some people over in Middlesboro and they are down this year. They expected both they and Bell to get beaten pretty badly tonight. Beamer, you may know, what happened with that kid that Middlesboro had last year is he playing college ball anywhere?
Hunter Adams...last I'd seen he signed with Tusculum. Most everything I've seen from their fans too has been the same in that they'll expect them to struggle this year. Losing Adams alone will be pretty tough.
By the way, Harlan County (who open up next week) scrimmaged Corbin Thursday in the Grid-O-Rama over in Corbin...
The Harlan Daily Enterprise - Dragons win Bears fall in Grid O Rama
I think Biggin asked about them recently, WYMT had a little preview on them (video on the second page). I expected the Harlan Daily will have something on them too...
