Buffalo Gap 28 Clintwood 19 (with a Belfry Fan on board)
#21
don't know about crowd sizes this year.

about the stadiums - they changed that a bit this year.
First, a quick breakdown.
We have 3 Classes for all sports
Sizes - AA is about 700-1500 students in grades 9-12 two years ago. AAA is bigger, A smaller.
In football only, each class has 2 Divisions, and we play a double-header at 3 diff. stadiums.
AAA had been "out East" - Richmond, Hampton and Newport News have all hosted recently, but changed this year to UVA's Scott Stadium.
AA has been hosted in Lynchburg the past few years at Liberty (a.k.a. Falwell) U.
A had been at JMU - moved this year to Salem, just outside of Roanoke. It's a high school stadium, but HUGE, located about 100 yards from Salem Civic Center. They've hosted the Amos Alonzo Stagg Bowl (NCAA Div. 3) the past few years and put in turf over the Summer.
Haven't played at an "everyday" h.s. field since the late 90's.

All 3 SW VA teams lost today - Clintwood (East of Jenkins), Gate City (2 counties S. of Jenkins) and Richlands (2 counties S. of Pikeville).
If you've got high speed, I've got aeriel views of some stadiums on my playoffs pairings page (links at the top and the bottom).
