I’ll start with Colonial Heights. CH was winless on the season. Only scoring a meaningless touchdown in each of their three games. Last night, they beat the socks off of a Southampton team that beat a pretty darn good Petersburg team last week. Where did that come from?
Stone Bridge kept their game against mighty Maryland team, Quince Orchard respectable. A loss for sure, but some were saying they would lose by 40+.
Saddened to see once prominent Galax having to forfeit their second game in a row.
Glad to see Coach Cherbin and Rocktown get the win over Charlottesville. Coach C coached at C’ville for a number of years and probably was deserving of the head coach job when he got passed over.
The ratings for 4B will be interesting when they come out. Caroline will probably be at or near the top by my rough calculations. Of course, with so few games in the books, a lot will change.
I tuned into the Grundy at Twin Valley game for a few minutes last night. There is a lighting pole directly in front of the camera. Assuming it’s mounted on their press booth, then it also is blocking the view of anyone in the press booth. I had to chuckle. It reminded me of the Bob Uecker commercial when he was given free seats…, in the nose bleed section. But, this is the final year for Twin Valley, so I’m sure they just deal with it and move on.
The Churchland Truckers spanked Henrico by 65, and Alexandria City gave JR Lewis 71 points to remember them by.
As always, there are several teams around the state that have traditionally been down but are off to a great start. Likewise, there are several perennial top teams that are struggling. Who would ever expected to see a Salem team sitting at 0-4? King George, which really wasn’t unexpected, sitting at 0-3, but only scoring 6 points total in those three games. Or Eastern View? 1-3, with that win coming last night against Liberty-Bealton by only one point, 7-6. On the other side of that are teams like Meadowbrook starting the season 4-0. For those that may not recall, years ago Meadowbrook was a powerhouse. If you could beat Meadowbrook, you were considered a legitiment playoff contender. But, when it turned the other way, Meadowbrook got bad, really bad. From 2018 through 2023 they one only one game.
Now it’s your turn. What have you seen this week that made you raise an eyebrow?
