Don't underestimate MA. I'm sure they will have athletes and good defense.
I agree you cannot underestimate MA by any stretch and I know for a fact SM wont. Its week 1 crazy things can happen but I just will be highly surprised if SM doesn’t win this matchup this year.

Mount Airy lost some incredible players last year. Surprisingly quiet from the folks in Mayberry. I don’t know what to expect.

I'm not sure what to think about this game. I would think Starmount should win. I didn't think Starmount looked as good as they should've against Hibriten. Lots of dropped passes. I thought they showed glimpses of what they can do in this past Fridays scrimmage. I understand both were scrimmages though.

Mt Airy usually has a few transfers so there's no telling what they have. Should be a good physical game.

Yeah the lack of communication from Mayberry this pre season has been rather unusual for sure! Maybe Otis got really tore up on the white lighting and let the loaded goat out and blew up Andy & Barney….. LOL

I know schools always have transfers, but I feel like MA normally is the benefit of them. Something going on up there or just a coincidence?

The Starmount-Mount Airy JV has been moved to Sept 10th because of Mount Airy is setting up their new pressbox.

MA had too many transfer out and the Floyd kid that's good RB went to North Surry. MA will be good up front but will just not have the studs of years past. I could see MA 5-5 on the season with a tough schedule. The QB from last year was hurt in car wreck during basketball and cant play.
Geez, taking advice from a Flea. What floyd kid? The one that is hurt, that was hurt last year? Or the freshman that might be good but went to a notoriously poorly coached program with all kinds of in fighting.

I noticed that the Aug. 19th Phoenix Academy vs Starmount soccer game was streamed on the NFHS Network.

As Coach B W Holt was notoriously quoted in the late 80’s after a thrilling win against Maiden in the playoffs, “It’s not over till the fat lady sings!” The Rams defense finally “waked up” and settled in on the Granite Bears’ Mason and Spainhour. This is a very satisfying win after several years of close ones against our friends from Mount Airy. I have always been more satisfied beating the Bears over the traditional rivals Elkin or Forbush. And I say that with respect for the football tradition in Mayberry.
