    Looks to be likely rematch between Rappahannock and Essex for Region A but there is a lot of games to be played. Essex is going to need to improve on offense and shore up that pass defense if they are to beat Rappahannock. We will find out how these 2 teams match up this year in regular...

    Eastside @ Essex

    game high lights Despite the low score, this game kept fans on the edge of their seats for both sides from start to finish. The game remained scoreless until late in the second quarter. Eastside put together several nice pass plays including a pass to the receiver in stride running into the end...

    Eastside @ Essex

    Well folks, looks the weather may be factor. They were already calling for gusty winds, now looks like possible rain by game time. If your going to the game, bring your rain gear and be prepared to hang on to your hats.

    1A/2A Week 4 Pick'em

    Essex vs Grayson County

    Essex played GC in 2003 Championship. The week before essex played James Monroe. Some argued JM should have been D3. 2 years later JM was moved up to D3. The AD at JM complained and wanted JM to stay at D2... anyway. To your point above, for the players, they can only play the teams they are...

    Essex..Grayson..State game thoughts

    I hope for the sake of the Blue Devils players their fans show up for them. The first time Essex reached the State Championship there was only about 200 essex fans, I was one of them. There was about 4000 fans for the other team.

    Essex..Grayson..State game thoughts

    I was talking with coach jones before the game started with altavista. We were standing on the hill watching the altavista players warm up. Normally jones is business like before a game. He seemed nervous that day. IMO he is feeling some pressure to get is done this year.

    Essex vs Grayson County

    As a long time essex fan, I've seen my share of disappointments with essex in the state championship. I'll be there pulling for them this year as usual ( with my fingers crossed ).

    Essex..Grayson..State game thoughts

    as a long time essex fan, I have seen my share of disappointments in state championship games with essex. Could write about all the reasons why but at the end of the day, essex needs to find a way to get it done. Especially considering how many chances they have had.

    Essex vs Grayson County

    Essex has the advantage with size and experience. The blue devils have never been to the state Championship. Both teams have speed. And if you believe those computer projections. Calpreps is projecting essex with a 80% probability on winning.
