Head Coach Howard Mayo is going to get one more opportunity to build for the future of his program. Tonight at 6pm the Lady 👩 Cavaliers will host the Radford Bobcats and its a chance to build on the teams performance at Christiansburg earlier in the week.

While the team fell at CHS, the final score was 57-51, it was one of the best performances of the season if not the best.

  It’s been a brutal few days with the deep freeze so if you are suffering from Cabin Fever, consider yourself officially invited to join us tonight on The Hill as we say goodbye to our 2024-2025 Lady Cavaliers.

The State Wrestling Championship now has both a when and where question as the VHSL has moved from Plan C to the we will get back to you when we have a Plan D.

  Everyone involved with the event has been working hard in hopes of getting it held this weekend, including taking a two day event and folding it into one day.

Moving it to All Day Sunday was next up but now its back to the drawing board as parts of the State continue to try and shovel themselves out of an avalanche of recent snow ❄.

The Where part comes into play because of the availability of the Salem Civic Center. The building is not the same as your local High School gym where the use is not being shared with a multitude of plays, concerts and other public bookings.

We do know the Who and the What part in this equation. Senior Samuel Collins is trying to win a State Championship for himself, his family, his coach and his school.

If there is an ounce of upside to the extended delay it can be found in it keeps the Wrestling spotlight on and that is a blessing 🙏 for the program.

As far as the mental aspect of young Mr Collins, something tells me he is going to be just fine !

Stay tuned…

6:00 PM – See you there….
