Fort Chiswell : After our 96-95 victory back on December 3rd, Anthony Barnes had some games on the slate to tend to before taking our team up US – 52 to invade the Fort. But Mother Nature had other plans and now its time for Round 2.
This time around the home court advantage belongs to the 3-1 Pioneers but hopefully π enough folks will make the short drive across the County line to give our team a fighting chance.
There’s no way that the back end can live up to the first go-around, right ? Don’t bet against it as the Cavaliers will be hungry from not having played a game in almost two full weeks !

Just a thought or two for some of the folks that have stumbled across our site over the past week. The idea π‘ is to create a “Safe ” place to visit and catch up on all of the wonderful events taking place in and around a place I like to call “The Hill “
With all of that said, let’s loop back to Carroll County by acknowledging that our Friend, Marion Harris had his first day of School π« yesterday. Big Day for him but let’s switch to the Kiddo that I call Half Pint.
Here’s the list of things that Callie Harris has accomplished in the last 72+ hours. Getting her Dad ready for School has to be on the list but from there :
