Varsity Coach Rick Nester and his Lady Cavalier 11 headed over to Bassett High last night while Terry Warf and the Junior Varsity team hosted the Bengals at Cavalier Park.

” Over the winter we were stressing to our players that we wanted them to be more aggressive at the plate,” said Nester. ” The past two days showed that they were listening and took the message to heart.”

George Wythe at home on Tuesday and the trip across US – 58 yesterday afternoon gave the Varsity team amble time outside ahead of the questionable weather headed our way.

For the Junior Varsity team, the jamboree at Tazewell last week and the scrimmage last night has Coach Warf excited about the new season.

” Terry had nothing but good things to say after their time at Cavalier Park,” added Nester. ” Coach said that his group is also swinging the bats well.”

There was an off – season message to the two returning Varsity pitchers as well as both Emma Harman and Addie Greene return to the circle 🔵.

” The focus there is also about taking the game to the opponent,” noted Nester. ” We want them to challenge each hitter from pitch one in hopes of putting them on the defensive when in the batters box.”

Both teams are set to open the season at Cavalier Park next Wednesday evening when Galax travels to The Hill. The Maroon Tide is hopeful that they will be able to field a JV team this season after not being able to in the past.

Floyd County will be the team in the Three Rivers District that will not have a JV team this season.

Both of our Varsity Soccer ⚽️ teams are set to play a scrimmage match against Graham High School 🏫 tonight at Tommy Thompson Field !

Still smiling about the number of teams participating over the next three days have been part of the journey.

Psalm 113:3 From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same the Lord’s name is to be praised.

Yesterday was a fun day that produced some fun writes ✍ and hopefully fun reads. Not sure what today holds but I’m willing to find out !

Have a Blessed Day 🙌🙏

Year #2 kicks off tonight when the team opens up a Varsity Soccer ⚽️ scrimmage doubleheader at 5:00 pm. Coach Johnson and his Boys squad are set to take years pitch shortly after the Girls action 🎬 has concluded.

Each Night that the Varsity team takes the Pitch during the regular season, Brittany Kinney and her JV Cavaliers will open the action.

Today was a tougher than usual day for Coach Montgomery and Coach Delp as they were tasked with having to trim down the number of Middle School Track and Field participants from a recent high of 57.

Coach talked about the types of turnouts that they would have pre – Covid, with one of those years landing at 100. This year the two Varsity teams have 32 Student Athletes ready to compete and represent our School and community.

After having one season without a single Home meet, Carroll County High School will host an event one time this year.

Weather permitting that day will be next Wednesday at 4:30 PM. We will attempt to stir up as much interest in the BIG DAY as possible between now and then !

Coach Nester will reach out later with his thoughts on the last two days and we will add them here later on.

Thank You Tammy, for the Proof of Life !
