Ive mentioned that several times in passing. I just dont see it continuing any longer. Its really a lose lose for both teams. Now that Mitchell is out of the picture i look for Lynn Camp to move on as they should.
I believe this is the second longest running annual game in the state, or atleast ive heard it was.
I believe the two have played every year since the mid 60's, without ever taking a year off. Other than the finacial aspect of a short trip and decent gates, its just not something that helps Whitley. It may have been different had Lynn Camp been able to keep it competetive, but its just to small of a school, and quite frankly not there fault. I know if iwas Russell, I wouldnt want to play a school that has over a 1000 more kids and that the school has onlt beaten twice in over twenty years.

Male Manual 1892, Paducah Tilghman Mayfield 1911, St X Trinity 1956. I know through research Williamsburg Pineville have played since 1951. Can't find out about 48,49,50 but did not play 46,47. Williamsburg Lynn Camp have played since at least 70. What was Whitley's 1st year of football?
The 1st three games I listed are recorded and listed on Wikipedia.
The longest recorded rivalry is Norwich Free Academy CT vs New London CT 1875.
