Who is the oldest?

[DinwiddieProud]

Where and when did he play, and how old is the oldest known former high school football player in Virginia?

I got to wondering about this after I made the post about Dinwiddie's very first football team.

(Bleeding Navy was my first guess!)

I’m guessing someone might still be around that played in 1950. That puts them around 85

Shoot, I forgot about him.

Unless someone knows of someone older, your dad will be declared the champ.

I wonder about Chilhowie25? I know he is one of the grand old gentleman on this board. I assume he played back in his day?

How old is Ciach Mills dad?. Did he play in Virginia or Kentucky?

There are some officials in 70s+. I know one around here that is probably 80+, and used to coach at VSDB. Whether he played in Va or not I am not sure

Where Kenny Easley is likely best known as "The Enforcer" and being the NFL Hall of fame enductee from Oscar Smith. But the Football Stadium is named: Beard - DeLong - Easley.

Ed Beard, Class of 59, still comes to games nearly every week and climbs to the near top row of the bleachers to watch the games. He is the definition of a Bad A#$. As you read the below link, realize what he did.

GW beat JF 26-21 in the basketball regional semis in 74. Was the JS basketball game. They held the ball on us.
