East Surry vs Atkins Monday Night "Final"
- Thread starter photo0001
- Start date
Only 7 fans in the visiting bleachers. Those kids deserve a little more support than that.
Go ahead and keep this going. Sorry I didn't know if anyone would post it. It is you're game.
If you would ,take it after the Half I am doing something else and trying to post the score.
They only brought about 10-15 (minus their band and cheerleaders,) when they played us for homecoming. I agree though I felt bad for their players when it come to not having that support in the stands. Only a few player parents showed up most were for the band oddly enough.
Yeah Prep's on the Atkins field until they get their own field, might be next year.
Prep will not have their own field next year or anytime in the next few years.
Thanks, I'm not sure what that means. Just stating facts. WSFCS will not build a field anytime soon. First thing to be decided is where Prep's home will be in 5 years.Thank you Alex Trebeck.
To play NCHSAA football I think all teams should have their own stadium and that stadium have the proper seating capacity on both sides of the field for home and visiting teams .WS Prep has 6 home games and 4 away compared to Atkins sharing their field 4 home and 6 away. Of coarse that schedule will reverse next year. Ante up Forsyth Co. and any school that don't comply because that is only fair,But what is fair with the NCHSAA anyway, it is all politics . I always thought back in the 60s and 70s that was required. I have never been to a conference ,non-conference or playoff game that did not have proper seating on both sides at their own school.Playoffs seems like times a school at an away game did move the game to a larger stadium and I don't remember why. I do know when we played Watauga back when we were 3A and played them there in the playoffs, it was played at Appalachian State's stadium.
In the 60's and 70's R.J.Reynolds was playing their games at Bowman Gray stadium. Still to this date they share a stadium with WS Parkland. HP Andrews and HP Central share a city owned stadium in High Point. Watauga played at ASU for years. Those come to my mind, I am sure there are others around the state that this exist.
I am assumming you mean NCHSAA, you will not like my answer, but for the most part I support them. It is very difficult to govern any large body and it is no way to make everyone happy. I do wish they would spend more of the endowment money to help the struuggling schools. I know it is hard for some areas to to realize but even the large systems such as WSFCS schools struggle with budget issues. If this was not what you were referring to then you better ask the question directly.
No big deal to me. If you follow the larger schools, 4A, 4Aa, a lot of them don't meet meet seating requirements for the playoffs. I will assure you I have been to Bishop more times than Mt. Airy has ever been and have always been treated with the utmost class. Sorry to disappoint you, not going to join the Surry county war against Bishop and WSFCS. I also must add in my many trips to Mt. Airy HS and other Surry County schools have also been treated in a 1st. Class way.
To you and 3daughters , I did not bring up the Bishop name. Is there no seating on the visitor side and if not is that the only school with seating on home side only.
Funny how people see what they want to see. I don't even know where the school is in K-Ville.
Also funny how MA BEARMAN called 3Daughters out by name long before my post that did not have his name or school in it and he ignored MA BEARMAN to make a stupid comment to me.

Photo, I don't have to answer that question, you know the answer. I have probably only been to halve the schools in NC so I can't say if any others do or not. Bishop does have 2 distinct set of bleachers so the two set of fans do not co-mingle.
I will say this, until about 10 years ago Western Carolina University only had one side of seating, was that way for a good 20 years.

Who has seen Bishop's stadium ? What about this stadium made my comment get under 3Ds skin that he would ignore MA BEARMAN's call out and make a comment on mine ? MA BEARMAN called him out at 10:21 AM and my comment on football fields was at 6:52 pm .... Go figure ! !
