That’s some good stuff. I have also went to watch big time games other than Andrews while Andrews was playing out of town. You’re basically the same age as me. I graduated in 1980. Back then Andrews had around 325 students and dressed out around 32 to 35 players consistently
Madison @ Mitchell

I think I'm going to sign out for a while dont want to jinx my kid, I can vent as easily at the game as I can on here, lol go mountaineers and go Cougars I have family on that team dont judge me blood is thicker than water
Yeah we were bigger when I graduated in '83 too around 900+ we were in the 3A Little Mac conference.
I remember that well. I also remember when Brevard was a bigger school and a powerhouse and Sylva Webster with the Streeter boys. Times have changed many things but nothing like small town mountain football. Best of luck to the Mountaineers and who knows, maybe we will meet again in playoffs
My senior year Brevard won the 3A championship and we went to every game, great defense. Mitchell's first season as a team they played Sylva Webster, my brother was co-captain and he said the only time he was able to even touch Streeter (much less tackle him) was when he shook his hand during the coin flip
Best of luck to Andrews as well.
The streeter bros were the real deal, I was fortunate enough to get to help coach and get to know Stanley Honeycutt all he talked about was the Streeter bros, he said when he played at East Yancey late 70s he was kickoff return and one of them hit him so hard his eyeball actually came out of the socket, Ben Deyton tried to tape it back in lol, and some of the other coaches said he needs to go to a hospital long story short one of the Streeters ended his career he didn't mind it he laughed about it, I miss his mentoring he was a good manMy senior year Brevard won the 3A championship and we went to every game, great defense.

One last thing mountaineers I hope you learned last week never underestimate your opponent, list to your coaches they are in my opinion the best Mitchell Co has ever had, and disregard most of what you read on here, some of us post when we have had a few too many, or after taking a sleeping pill lol, play hard play smart and once again listen to your coaches follow assignments do your job play as a team, ni more team of me if you follow those simple rules you cant lose regardless of what the scoreboard says, we are proud of you GO MOUNTAINEERS!
I’ll be shocked if that clock isn’t going really fast in the 3rd Q. No disrespect at all for Madison, but 2-1 in this case is really deceptive.
I truly hope this continues and great things start happening!
I don’t know about y'all but seeing Madison win is a great thing !!!! Over the last few years watching them play was hard and I actually felt bad for them fellers but with that said Mitchell will get back on track tonight with a big win.
Mitchell may be laying it on Madison tonight, but the Patriots are very much improved over seasons past. Madison may very well finish 2nd in the conference this year.
You need go watch freshman quarterback at heritage, he probably is best athlete in conf right now.
Listen junior, Heritage is not going to have a good year this season. 2nd place will likely come down to Draughn and Madison. The only reason that Heritage isn't 2-3 tonight is that covid got ahold of them.
They might surprise you Heritage didn't lose much, and had several kids out when they lost to Pisgah
It'll come down to Heritage or Mitchell just like the last 7 years, unless Draughn can upset one of us
Listen up pal you guys beat watauga they were playing with 3 string quarterback ,then you brag about the impressive win lol . Andrews brought you guys back to reality.
I stand by my statement, Draughn or Madison will finish 2nd. If I'm wrong, I'll eat my crow.
Heritage lost a lot to graduation. 7-8 2 and 3 year starters off the defense and 6 or 7 off the offense. Lost more than you think I believe.
No way Madison finishes 2nd. Draughn has a slight chance but Heritage has the defense to slow down either
Like I have been saying western highlands is down no dominant team, mitchell and heritage are solid not great. Both teams lack team speed.
I’ll be shocked if Madison finishes higher than 4th. My thoughts:
Mitchell
Heritage
Draughn
Madison
Avery
Owen
Rosman
Mitchell
Heritage
Draughn
Madison
Avery
Owen
Rosman
You have lost it if you think Madison beats Heritage it'll be a fight between Avery and Madison Carter left early injured and so did Chandler still a running clock, I wish the best for Madison but see them finishing 4th if they dont have anymore injuries
They seem to be the team to beat, I think one poster should stick to his Rec league team if he ain't going to keep up
Equal playing field First time I. A long time, dont know who will win, good football!
If Draughn wins it then does that a reflection on how bad the conference is or how good Mt Airy is seeing they beat Draughn 56-6?
Who knows season is upside down anyone can win seems like even playing field
