Herm will be just fine. Bedwell has two dynamic RBs and their Defense is playing lights out. Bedwell does what Bedwell does. Pound the ball and dare teams to stop it. Nigel James would have Paul Robertson, Stephen Mines and Yahkee Johnson numbers if this was a 10 game season. Jeremiah Coney is a damn good back as well. This Herm team is a lot like Salem (VA Beach) last year. Stout defense and excellent ball control.
Hermitage 9, Varina 0 Final
- Thread starter DinwiddieProud
- Start date
They’ll give HS a good half. Not much depth but #44 Zach Chambers is a DOG for Glen Allen.

I do not want this to be taken the wrong way because I do think Highland Springs is a team no one wants to play this year. That said, their opponents thus far are a combined 0-4... we will know more after the next two weeks when they play Glen Allen and Deep Run.
Ref. the GA game-
Well Danny, I would have said at halftime, we have our answer. But then along came the second half, so I guess we really did get our answer.
I think Highland Springs and Varina are on a collision course for that final game of the season... With Midlothian, Prince George, Deep Run and Hermitage all fighting for 4 spots in the playoffs the loser could be odd man out.
Varina has just Douglas Freeman left before the Springers
Highland Springs has Deep Run and JR Tucker
PG has Dale this week and Midlo has Manchester,so I don’t think PG and Midlo are locks. I DO think Hermitage will finish 6-0.
By the look of things I would say Hermitage has the easiest path to 6-0
The Springer D still has not given up a point! The 9 points were given up by the KO return team and a TO inside the 20 by the offense. This D is flat out nasty!! Those 2 DEs and 5 DBs are everywhere it seems!
Herm still has Deep Run. I think that along with Varina/HS are the biggest games in the 804 this year.
Herm has only given up 10. Desperation 4th and a mile TD by GA and a field goal at Godwin. A lot of people are wanting to see a Bedwell/Johnson regional championship this year.
I look at it differently as far as the is concerned Hermitage, highland springs and Varina the teams they are playing they're really isn't any competition other than playing each other. Varina had gone 11 quarters unscored upon until deep run scored with 4 minutes left in the game when the second string was given an opportunity to play. Just being honest the competition is not there for those three teams hopefully things will work out and the best four teams are in the playoffs
I don’t know what Henrico looks like but Godwin really isn’t this God awful team that people believe. Put them in Northern VA, Charlottesville’s way or SWVA, they’re a top team, I kid you not. All Varina, HS, and Herm can do is beat the teams they play. Herm has the most impressive resume of the 3 teams so far.
My son plays QB for Herm and he had a nice game throwing against Godwin. Yes I agree that if Herm can get balanced on the ground and in the air they will be tough. Nigel is the best back in Va I believe as well he’s been doing it all 4 years at Herm I think he has almost 600 yds in 3 games. Going to be a fun 3 weeks for football.
i saw that! Congrats on raising such a quality young man! If that passing game keeps heating up I do believe Herm can compete for a state title. Crazy to think where that program was a few years ago and the discussion we are having right now. Happy to see that Hermitage is back!
