Week 6 for High schoolers!!
Most of the high schools back in my home turf of Virginia are just at the halfway point and starting to jostle for possible playoff spots so the action should get more intense.
Last week, I finished at 21-5 for my picks on Varsitycast in the Roanoke Times newspaper. That equalled the mark for local expert Robert Anderson. My overall mark of 94-39 for the season trails him by 20 games however; hmm…I’m going to have to pull a Tampa Bay Rays month to catch up!!
In my Blog Picks, I finished 9-1 for the week putting me at 38-11 for the season. I mistakenly had a matchup between GW-Danville and Lake Braddock listed…I must have gotten the wrong info from somewhere as the teams did not play one another. So I will do eleven games on my blog this week to put me on an even sixty for the season.
Ok…here we go:
Tunstall @ Staunton River
Staunton River has surprised this season whereas Tunstall has been up and down so just go with the home team in this one.
Staunton River by 17.
Hidden Valley @ Bassett
Both squads were thrashed by common opponent PH-Roanoke. Hidden Valley has shown life so I will go with the Titans
Hidden Valley by 14.
Halifax County @ Magna Vista
Halifax held on against Piedmont foes Martinsville last week…this week they will go down on the road in Ridgeway.
Magna Vista by 17.
Carroll County @ Martinsville
Bulldogs should get the non-district win at home.
Martinsville by 20.
Patrick County @ Radford
The woes continue for PC.
Radford by 32.
Walsingham Academy @ Carlisle
Walsingham seems to be a new kid on the block?? Hmm…could Carlisle get three in a row?? Well it is their Homecoming game…
Carlisle by 36.
Franklin County @ Christiansburg
Very interesting game this one will be. Magna Vista will be able to gauge the strength of C’Burg after beating Franklin Co. earlier this season.
Christiansburg by 4.
Dan River @ Chatham
Backyard Brawl for these two Pittsylvania County schools.
Dan River by 16.
Southampton @ GW-Danville
Quality opponent for the Eagles at home.
GW by 10.
William Fleming @ Salem
Fleming is having a down year; it does not get any better!!
Salem by 34.
William Byrd @ Glenvar
