Do the finals draw a large enough crowd to justify the cost of renting an actual stadium? No college is gonna give away the space for free.

But yeah, choose one of the nicer NoVa HS field, one that's easy to get in and out of. Battlefield would be a good area for travel from al over but that field is doo doo doodie.


I've always thought they should do everything at South County. Between the high school and the middle school that is connected, they have 3 turf fields that work for Lax (might need to add some temp bleachers) plus 3 large grass areas for warmups. Massive amount of space - also a little closer to teams in Richmond and Tidewater than some other NoVa schools.


They need to remove the giant bird nest first that is in the cell tower. the constant crowing and dodging bird sh*t isnt ideal for visitor side

And Battlefield lost to little old Meridian. Ha

VHSL treats state semi/final games terribly. Always down state (would it kill them to host up in NOVA for once since most of the time that's where the top 4 teams come from?). Instead they play at crappy schools without cameras so nobody can watch. way to end season on down note.

Here's YT's version of your statement.

YT has a good mix of players with a boat load of experience and an incredibly deep bench. They won by 5 at BF in the second game of the season. They beat Madison by 5 at Madison. Beat Robinson, Oakton (twice), Langley (twice), and Western Albermarle. They had one game at Madison that they got outplayed. Only thing that concerns me is overlooking a good BF team but they have played multiple top teams in the last 6-7 weeks to keep them ready.



YT’s win against Western Albermarle could have gone either way. YT won in OT with a draw control and score. That’s it.


So that means beating a team that hadn't lost in like three years doesn't count as impressive? I hate YT and I was impressed they beat them.

I’m gonna go ahead and say YT -2 over BF. ASU and the freaky-deeky frosh will put up a fight but I think they just fall short.

Madison breezes through, -10.

Yes. Yes, they did. They did what they needed to do and they won.

But…But…But….the Mag 7! 4 in a row! Pahleeze. Stop with the excuses. Win the State title or sit down and keep quiet.


Regardless of their path to states, you can’t possibly argue that they aren’t one of the top 4 teams. If you think your team is better you should have reached out and scheduled them.


Well, since BF is currently ranked 5th by LN, it is possible to argue that BF isn't one of the top 4 teams. I think Langley is better and they played BF.

Agreed. It could have gone either way. But it didn't. It was a YT Win. All the poster said was that YT beat West Albermarle, which is true. Poster didn't say they crushed WA. WA is a very good team.
