Friday is the last game of the regular season. It always amazes me how fast these11 weeks go by. It seems only a few weeks ago I was looking forward for the season to start. Now after Friday everyone's season can come to an end in just a week, 2 weeks or go on for 5 weeks. May the west win it all this year. Just who from the west could it be is the question ? 1AA East Surry ??

I'm indifferent to where they are. Gonna win a ship, gotta face em eventually. It's not wishful thinking, it's just fact. They are the eastern most West team at the moment. One little change, and they will go east.
That is incorrect. North Rowan and South Stokes who will both be qualifiers in 1AA are further East than ES.

you are correct that they are qualifiers, andd they are farther east, but right NOW with the teams that are qualifying, those two are in the east, and if one more team sneaks into the 1aa West, then East Surry will be in the 1aa east.

It would be something if they sent East Surry east and they won the east and it would be two teams that have always been west teams play for the State Championship. WOW, who would they play ?

I really can't see East Surry going east. they are only 10 miles south slightly east of Mount Airy. Neither have ever gone east.
South Stokes can but it depends on their ADMs this year and the cut-off. SS ADM last year was 500. North Stokes has gone east several times in sm 1A .Their ADM was 321 last year.

North Stokes hasn't gone east in small A. If they did it was many moons ago. In fact in small A several eastern teams end up in the west.

West Stokes however has gone east before in 2AA.

Lakewood and South Stanly were in the west bracket that year. South Stanly is usually west and Lakewood has been in the west bracket a ton over the years. Elkin played them 2 or 3 times.
If I remember correctly, the Lakewood game was played at N. Stokes and the Lakewood Coach said some of the kids got sick on the bus coming up the mountain. He said most had never seen mountains.

Imagine if they would have had to go to Alleghany or further west.

I just looked it up and posted the west brackets in my previous post. They played Hobbton @ Hobbton non-conference this year and was thinking they played them in the east playoffs years back. May have been another year they played them there non-conference I was thinking of. .

I’m an old fart and seen way to many games in my life (hope I can see a few more). I have no idea what year or what school played at NS, but they came from down east and it was a playoff game. Heck I could have thought Stanley County was down east.

I barely remember where I was this past Friday night.

I think they've played Hobbton before non-conference. However Hobbton is another team that has ended up in the west bracket several times.
