Twas the Night πŸŒ™ before Floyd when all through the House not a Cavalier was stirring, not even a Mouse

The day that every High School Athletic Director dreams of might be an overstatement but not only is today Groundhog Day but its also Nothing on the Cavaliers Sports Calendar Day.

The Winter teams have now officially entered the final week of their regular season and they’re still plenty of games to play, just not today.

A day of rest for all of the Cavs faithful ahead of a busy weekend of Basketball πŸ€. All four of the High School teams will head over to Floyd tomorrow night to be followed up with the Girls Varsity playing its regular season finale in Salem at 2 pm on Saturday.

The games at Floyd will be played once again with what I refer to as a 1-3 format. Floyd is one of the area schools with two gyms and they will both host a Junior Varsity game at 4:30. Once those games are finished the smaller Gym will be done and everyone will spend the remainder of the evening in the Main gym.

The atmosphere in our building when Floyd came over was electric and I am expecting the same over at their place. Maybe its a good thing everyone has a day to rest up!

Last night πŸŒ™ over in Galax the Girls JV team earned a hard fought Non-District contest victory over the home team, 29-23. Please check out their results on the Live Blog a couple of posts back

Have a Great Day off, well except for school and work and the rest of real life.

Turning back the Clock ⏰ with some Carroll County History

We are just a few days away from a Celebration that will honor πŸŽ– one of the Living Legands of Carroll County – Mr. Frank Beamer.

Mr.Beamer was making a name for himself before there was a CCHS (built in 1969) . Prior to then the High School for the County was Hillsville High School.

Credit to the Carroll News for the story on the right at the top of this post. The fact that Blacksburg High School will be the visiting team on Monday night simply cannot be an accident. Beamer always remained known as Fancy Gap Frank to many as his legendary Coaching career developed just up I-81 in Blacksburg.

Virginia Tech football became a nationwide brand under the guidance of Beamer and peaked when the Hokies played for the National Championship.

Reaching the level of success that Coach did is something to Celebrate but the fact that he never forgot where he came from is something you treasure !

Beamer has traded roaming the sidelines and whopping the ACC for now being a Proud Papa on Saturday afternoons as his son Shane is carrying on in the Family Business down in Columbia, South Carolina as the Head Coach of the Gamecocks.

It will be an exciting night for all of Carroll County High School fans on Monday or maybe we can truly turn back the clock ⏰ and play as Hillsville High for a night.
