Good evening folks and welcome to week number nine of the regular season. Only two more Friday nights remain before we separate the pretenders from the contenders and start the post season.
[GRAPHIC=PH/FRANKLIN]
But not everyone can make the playoffs - and it's also this time of year when you find out who can play for pride. Patrick Henry was looking to play for just that and for its alumni tonight as the Patriots entertained Franklin County.

[SUPER=51-Roanoke/Franklin Co. vs. Patrick Henry; :00]
The PH marching band and supporting cast marched down Brandon Road and right past the WDBJ-7 studios tonight as they looked to make some homecoming noise throughout Southwest city. In the first quarter-Maurice Robinson will score from the eight yard line on the bootleg off the right side. PH goes on top 8-to-zip. To open the second quarter - the Patriots would again get busy. Reggie Jones plows his way through the defense for the score. It's 14-to-nothing after the missed kick. Franklin County's attempt to take off would be halted quickly as the PH defense puts the wood on the ball carrier, forces a fumble and gets the recovery. They would turn that turnover into a TD as Jones does it again - this time scoring from the two. PH leads it 20-to-nothing.
[super=52-Franklin Co./21/Patrick Henry/41;]
Franklin County would finally get on track as Nathan Angle scores on the scramble. But Patrick Henry makes it a happy Homecoming with a 41 to 21 win.

[SUPER=51-Roanoke Co./LCA vs. North Cross; :00]
If we've learned one thing in 16 years it's that you always suck up to the cheerleaders! LCA's Matt Cline would take the pitch and take off to his right and start zig zagging his way for 45 yards moving the ball all the way into Raiders' territory. But a clip would bring the play back and in effect end the drive and silence the Bulldogs offense. The Raiders would then get busy late in the second quarter as Matt Stover takes the somewhat errant shuttle pass, haul it in and burn down the left side of the field for 50 yards and a TD. North Cross leads 8-to-zip after the 2 point conversion. Then with only seven seconds left in the game the Raiders would add
[super=52-LCA/8/North Cross/19;]
three more as Drew Densmore kicks this 45 yard field goal with room to spare as North Cross takes 11-to-nothing lead and wins it 19-to-8.

number one team - the Salem Spartans fared in their district battle with the Northside Vikings. Salem came in having outscored its last two victims - Byrd and Botetourt by a combined 94-to-nothing.
(------------)
[VO-NAT]
[SUPER=51-Salem/Northside vs. Salem; :00]
And again tonight the Salem defense would set the tone against the upset minded Vikings. The Spartans' Dennis Haley comes in with the neck tie tackle of John Armstrong and that folks will get your attention in a hurry. But the Spartans' offense had troubles of its own in the first half, and this 40 yard field goal from Nick Schmitt was all Salem could muster until midday through the second. And even then it was the defense doing it again. Chris Schwizer recovers the
[SUPER=52-Northside/6/Salem/23;]
Tommy Morgan fumble, scoops it up and goes 42 yards for the TD. Salem stays perfect on the season with the 23 to 6 win.

After getting pasted last week by the Salem Spartans, the William Byrd Terriers were more than ready to take their frustrations out on the Alleghany Mountaineers.
(------------)
[VO-NAT]
[SUPER=51-Vinton/Alleghany vs. William Byrd; ;00]
The Terrier band was showing off its stuff on this brisk night in Vinton at Bob Paterson Stadium. In the third - the Terriers were on top 21-to-nothing. But Alleghany makes the first strike of the second half as Keith Booker goes around the left side and scores to make it 21-to-6 after the blocked kick. Then late in the third the Terriers will turn on the juice, as Bo Royal gets the ball to OJ Thomason and he will go in straight up the gut from the nine. It's now 28-to-6 Byrd. In the fourth - from the 30, Royal will drop back, draw a crowd, and wisely throw the little screen pass to Chris Trent. The fullback will take it down the sideline for 6 more. It's now 35-to-6. The Mountaineers would get another score from their big man Terrell Givens who bangs in for the TD. It's now a 35-to-14 game.
[super=52-Alleghany/14/William Byrd/48;]
But late in the third, Justin Doss comes in to replace Royal - and from the 21 he gives it to Jerome Mann - who takes it up the middle, to the far side and in for the score. Byrd bounces back with the 48-to-14 win.

The Blacksburg Indians have been quietly making some noise the past couple of weeks. Tonight they attempted to extend their mini-winning streak against another upset minded team Rockbridge Co.
(------------)
[VO-NAT]
[SUPER=51-Blacksburg/Rockbridge Co. vs. Blacksburg; :00]
It was a cold homecoming in the Burg as Lindsey McCartney and Matt Bisecer were crowned queen and king at halftime. Down 13-to-7 at the break Blacksburg would come out kicking in the third quarter. Eric Bradley knocks this one through the posts to cut the Rockbridge lead to 3. The Indians would depend upon Bradley's foot yet again in the fourth as he boots this 25 yard field goal to tie the game at 13-all. Things would then get extremely interesting as a little Beamer-Ball seeps into the high school. The Indians block the the Wildcats punt and smother it at the three.
[super=52-Rockbridge Co./13/Blacksburg/20;]
Two plays later James Hungate seals the deal with the one yard touchdown. Blacksburg comes from behind to win it 20-to-13. It's the Indians third win in a row.

[SUPER=51-Christiansburg/Lord Botetourt vs. Christiansburg; :00]
The Blue Demons were anxious to get back on the field after last week's loss at Blacksburg. However, things didn't go as well as the Christiansburg fans had planned. Matt Woodyards' pass is intercepted by Lord Botetourt in the first quarter. The Botetourt offense offense was tripped up two plays later as Nick Ready is tackled in the end zone for a safety. Christiansburg takes a 2-to-nothing lead. The Cavaliers would get on track in the second quarter as Anthony Ford
[SUPER=52-Lord Botetourt/22/Christiansburg/8;]
fires to the back of the end zone and he finds Austin Bousman who drags his feet inbounds for the score and a 7-to-2 lead. Lord Botetourt beats Christiansburg 22 to 8.

That's where we meet up with the Carroll County Cavaliers, having a great season of their own and hoping to spoil Floyd County's perfect record.

[SUPER=51-Floyd/Cavaliers vs. Buffaloes;]

And if winning daily is a Buffalo's job they've done that job well holding on tonight to remain undefeated.
Former player of the week Josh Spence helped by powering down the field bouncing off tacklers and dragging them along for a ride on this run.
Floyd continues the stampede in the second quarter as Derreck Mannon takes the hand off up the middle for an 11 yard gain.
[super=52-Carroll Co./13/Floyd/15;]

Quarterback Adam Gardner caps off the drive, with the bootleg run into the end zone. And the Buffaloes hold on 15-to-13. The Cavaliers are now six and two, Floyd is eight and oh.

(------------)
[VO-NAT]
[SUPER=51-Roanoke Co./Radford vs. Glenvar; :00]
At half-time the Glenvar cheerleaders were only half their normal size and the Highlanders were down 21-to-7. Radford's Josh Kimbleton opens the second half with more Bobcat excitement as he picks off Brandon Carroll's pass with a sliding effort to put the pill back in the hands of the Bobcat offense. That pick would lead to a Jelani Hendricks 13 yard touchdown run to put Radford in front 28-to-7 in the third quarter.
[SUPER=52-Radford/35/Glenvar/7;]
The Bobcats would then show off their air attack as Josh Woods connects with Ben Fisher to put 6 more points on the board. Radford wins it 35-to-7.

The Shawnees would blast on to field hoping to make quick work of the Knights. And early in the first - David Showalter calls his own number and puts the Shawnees in front 6-to-nothing in the opening period. The Knights retaliated on their first play from scrimmage as Brandon Blankenship struts down the sideline and into the house for the TD. It's 7-to-6 James River.
[SUPER=52-James River/34/Shawsville/20 ;]
The next time the Knights go the ball - they would need just three plays to score. Chad Sink takes it in and James River beats Shawsville 34 to 20.

Trailing by a touchdown Green Wave quarterback Chad Turner gives to Brent Gordon who scores from a yard out the point after is good Narrows takes the lead 7 to 6 with 9 minutes left in the third quarter.
Turner would set up the game winning score on a perfect pass to tight end Jim Hazelwood, a 25 yard completion to the Pocahontas 5 yard line.
A few plays later Gordon crosses the goal line for the touchdown Narrows goes up 14 to 6 with nine seconds left in the third quarter.
The Indians however would not quit. On fourth and 13 quarterback Aaron Thompson finds Antwaine Jackson on a nifty toss that keeps the drive and Pocahontas hopes alive.

Chris Jackson then goes right and scores but the two point conversion fails and Narrows escapes with the 14 to 12 victory.

Craig County's head coach Rod Tenney looked to get his first win ever in the pioneer tonight. On their first possession of the second half - the Chargers' Michael Bush will use every bit of the field on this 82 yard run. Watch him cut back and jet up the right sideline going untouched for the score. We're all tied up at 12-all with 10:52 left in the third. Craig would answer right back on their next possession. Cooter Hypes goes in from the four and the Rockets are back on top 18-to-12.
[SUPER=52-Bath County/20/Craig County/18;]
With just 53 seconds left in the third, Bath will score its final TD of the night and then add this two point conversion by David Hodge. Bath County takes the 20-to-18 lead and wins it by that score. It's the Chargers' first win of the season.

[VO-NAT]
[SUPER=51-Covington/Parry McCluer vs. Covington; :00]
The young Cougars were getting restless in the den tonight at Boodie Albert Stadium. The action starts as Chris Dolan takes the pitch, runs to his right and barrels his way into the end zone to give Covington a 7-to-nothing lead. Later with the score 14-to-6 - Parry McCluer will look for the tie as John Ross "the Hoss" Williams takes the hand-off from his own 20 and goes right up the middle, cuts to his left and he will take it 80 yards to the house for the score. It's 14-to-12 Covington after the botched PAT. The Cougars will then turn to their workhorse one more time as Dolan gets his third TD of the opening half. He scores virtually untouched. Now down 27-to-12 - the Blues find themselves with a 4th and two. They give it to Lee Stinnett and he takes the hand-off, breaks to his right and goes 51 yards untouched for not only the first down but the

[SUPER=51-Campbell Co./Staunton River vs. Brookville; :00]
The Bees all featured the number 8 somewhere on their uniforms tonight as they honored the memory of former Brookville player Ben Maddux who passes away earlier this week. The Bees would march down the field on their opening drive as Dijon Kennedy takes the hand-off and goes 24 yards for the score. The 7-to-nothing Bees right out of the blocks. Staunton River would try to answer that score with Jay Phares passing down field. But he is picked off by Matt Burch, who returns it 22 yards all the way down to the 12 yard line. A few plays later - Scott Nixon will connect with Martellus Braxton for the seven yard TD strike.

(------------)
[VO-NAT]
[SUPER=51-Lynchburg/Rustburg vs. Heritage; ;00]
Heritage and head coach Pem Apperson found themselves on top 12-to-3 at the start of the third quarter. But Rustburg had the ball in its possession late in the third as Brandon Mills passes Jordan Godsey for a 70 yard touchdown and just like that the seemingly safe Pioneer lead is chopped to 12-to-10. Late in the fourth, Rustburg is again on the move with Tony Jefferson getting free down the sideline. He fumbles it - but the ball will take a friendly Red Devils' bounce and Rustburg not only recovers but picks up an additional 10 yards in the process.
[super=52-Rustburg/13/Heritage/12;]
Those yards would come in handy because with a little over a minute to play Andrew Thompson would nail this 23 yard field goal to give the Red Devils the 13-to-12 comeback win.

Hardy plans to play college football and has received letters from both Virginia Tech and North Carolina. Steve Mason, Friday Football Extra.))
