Pass interference called on Blacksburg! Staunton River benefits from penalty and with 20 seconds to go Staunton River has ball at the 44.

 

[CRF4Dan]

Ball tipped, nearly intercepted. 12 seconds left!

 

[Shabutie]

There's no "catchable pass rule in HS".

There isn't technically but they still generally call it that way.

 

[CRF4Dan]

Interception, Cam Wise! Blacksburg your 3A Champions!

 

[Shabutie]

Great job Blacksburg! What a run.

Congratulations to the Bruins and their fans on the state title.

Jonesville was the last 5-loss team (and only other) to win a state title, doing so back in 1988, per the VHSL's Mike McCall.

 

[GKKING]

Had 1888 for bburg in Roanoke times

 

[1bburgfan]

1989 Appalachia Bulldogs
did also at 5-5

 

[1bburgfan]

barely enough to go 4 A

 

[Hampton Roads 6]

Pass interference called in the endzone on a very questionable call on a pass I don't believe was catchable.

That was a terrible call. It looked as if QB was throwing ball away. Probably 8 foot over receiver's head out of bounds.

 

[1bburgfan]

learn the rules no uncatchable ball in high school

 

[Hampton Roads 6]

I know the rules, but still , there should have been no flag on that play. There isn't a wide receiver in high school, college or NFL that could have caught that ball.

The NFHS needs to change the rules on PI. On PI, ball should be spotted at place where PI occurs. and the uncatchable ball rule needs to be put in.

wanna add face guarding too?
