During the pandemic WRIC8 and WWBT12 in the Richmond market did away with their sports department. WTVR6 has done a superb job in the Richmond Region with my friends Sean Robertson & Lane Cassadonte holding it down. Now it looks as though at least one local news station is getting back into the sports game...

Pre-pandemic, as it relates to high school football and sports in general it was always WTVR6, WWBT12 and then WRIC8 as far as who did the best. Will be interesting to see how much time the new sports dept at WRIC8 devotes to high school sports and of course the sport we love the most, football.
