Fern covering from the Sidelines !

This GW drive has included six flags and the one at the end of the fake punt hurt the Cavs. GW faked a punt on 4th and 15 and it appeared that CCHS stopped the play just short. But a 5-yard Face Mask penalty extended the drive. GW punched it in from 2 yards out, 14-0 (5:05-2).

CCHS – 🏈 McGrady to Easter for 23 yards on a HUGE 3 & 16. Move the chains β›“…

5pm – Union University Bulldogs playing at Home in Jackson, Tennessee ( Ashlyn Newman) and Kalee Bunn (Ferrum Volleyball 🏐) 7pm at Randolph – Macon just north of Richmond.

βž• we have one more to add, curtosey of Shannon Dalton !

East Tennessee is at Elon University tonight and I’m not sure who all makes the trip ?

Thank You Shannon for sending this one in !

Both the Volleyball and Soccer offer a streaming service if anyone wants to check in on these two young Ladies before heading out to Tommy Thompson Field!

Flying Eagles Softball will be in action 🎬 this Sunday versus the HeatersU18 squad. Macie Adkins and friends will take to the Diamond πŸ’Ž at 1&3 in Cedar Bluff!

This Sunday afternoon is the second in a series of Fall Ball games being played by the Southwest Virginia Community College Softball team.

Weekend #2 of 7 presents the best opportunity to check up on Macie and her fledgling ball club. This is year 2 of 2 for Macie and we are hoping πŸ™ for nothing but the Best for this Amazing young Lady πŸ‘©

When you can’t get up to Athens, Ohio…ESPN+ is the answer πŸ‘ App State Field Hockey πŸ‘

The rare Friday at home 🏑 because our Ladies are up in Athens, Ohio for our MAC opener at Ohio University.

Not making the drive down to Boone doesn’t mean a total disconnect from Head Coach Emily Dinsmore and our Lady Mountaineers.

First Touch was High Noon and App State closed out the first quarter with a 1-0 lead after Charlotte Bosma found the back of the Net !

We have an off day on Sunday ( Friday & Sunday are Game Days) so the outcome of today’s match will have a carry over effect. ASU exploded for 7 goals last Sunday at Davidson to even our record at 3-3.

Next Friday we will welcome Bellarmine to The Rock. Yes, I absolutely borrowed The Hill from The Rock. Just trying to make things more fun for our Student Athletes.

@ 12:02 of the 2nd quarter its time for Another App State Corner !!

@ 12:42, again but its still 1-0.

@ 12:46 – third time wasn’t the charm.

App State tied for the regular season Championship last year in Coach Dinsmore’s rookie season in the Top Spot and a victory today would be a great starting point.

12:42 – Headed to the 10:00 halftime with a 1-0 lead !

3rd Quarter – Florine Koopman put the biscuit in the basket 🧺 shortly after the break so now its 2-0 ! Koopman is one of three starters for us from The Netherlands πŸ‡³πŸ‡±…

Bridget Donovan fires a Lazer that dings off the cross bar, Loudly !

1:12 pm – End of the 3rd quarter, App State leads 2-0!!

October 13th is a BIG DAY for the program as the Tar Heels are making the trek over to The Rock. UNC currently sits at #2 in the Nation and have a barn full of National Championship πŸ†πŸ†πŸ†πŸ†πŸ†.

We are playing again and its time to give props πŸ‘ to the defense !

5:43 – Donovan with another great look…

@ 9:24 of the 4th, its time for a fifth App State Corner ! Great look from Boekaar.

10:05 – Penalty Shot for ASU, great save, 10th one for the Bobcats keeper.

Final three minutes at Pruitt Field.

Final Score – 2/0, shots 12/2

Hope the Bus 🚌 πŸ™ ride back to Boone is as smooth as possible !!

Carroll County High School 🏈🏈🏈 looks to move to 4-0 on the season tonight when it welcomes George Wythe to The Hill !

Just a few fun facts about tonight’s game ahead of Allen Worrell’s wire 2 wire coverage which will begin at 7pm.

We are now far enough into the season that one can look at the opponents path in hopes of drawing a conclusion going in. GWHS brings a record of 1-2 to Tommy Thompson Field tonight so let’s take a look inside those numbers.

The Maroons opened the season with a dominant performance against our Three Rivers District foe Radford. They didn’t just beat the visiting Bobcats opening night, the cruised to a 28-7 victory. If one were to stop βœ‹ the research there, it would appear that GW is set to conquer the World 🌎.

But since that night GW has yet to score a point and will be playing a third straight road game. Further review shows that Graham is 3-0 and has outscored its opponents 93-0 in those games. Graham scored half a hundred in its 52-0 defeat of Galax two weeks ago.

Altavista is also undefeated at 2-0, so while the Maroons are only 1-2, those losses came against quality opponents.

Flipping the script to the Carroll County High School side of the contest. If you draw a circle on a map surrounding CCHS , three of the four closest Schools 🏫 would be Galax, Grayson County and George Wythe.

The Cavaliers not only have an opportunity to reach 4-0 but they would get there by defending their own backyard. The team is playing with a great deal of confidence and with the GWHS being close by, The Hill should be full of electricity and then some.

Know that if you find yourself at the game tonight it should be a fun evening and My Man Vern ( Allen Worrell) will recap it all for you as a true Homer should.
