Welcome πŸ™ to the VHSL Scholastic Bowl πŸ₯£ Regional Tournament ! Day Long Post πŸ“«

It’s not very often that one School is competing in three Regional meets in one day but that’s where we are today.

Wrestling is on its way to Staunton River, Swimming πŸŠβ€β™‚οΈ is on their way to Christiansburg and here on The Hill we are hosting the Scholastic Bowl.

Our Academic correspondent, Mrs Shannon Dalton is on her way to Christiansburg with her Son and the Swim team. This is relevant because I was going to frame up whichever event she would not be at.

Hence, I will do my very best to write ✍ about what is going to take place here today and while I can pen πŸ–Š most stories with my eyes πŸ‘€ closed, this one will very much be learn as you go!

Ten teams were set to compete today but Magna Vista was forced to drop out as two of their five players have become ill.

The format is a carbon copy of Basketball with the opening round being play-in matches.

7 vs 10

8 vs 9

The second round will be the quarterfinals : 8/9 vs 1, 7/10 vs 2, 3 vs 6 & 4 vs 5.

The Schedule

Taking a look at the roster for Carroll County, there are 14 Cavaliers that compete on the team. Two of the team members are with the Swim πŸŠβ€β™‚οΈ team ( Ethan Edwards and Bradley Dalton) and one is with Coach Long ( Trenton Newman), leaving 11 available.

From that list, six are chosen to compete with four playing at all times. Players five and six are eligible to be subbed in when needed.

Everyone here has been incredibly helpful in helping me create the framework for this day long story.

Four different places inside of the School 🏫 will be used after the opening round. The Library, 111, 102 and 236.

The Library

Today is a big day on the Academics side of the building and we hope to do the day justice βš–.
