Brad Bradley (Amelia) & Kevin Saunders (Gretna) were the head coaches as listed in 2011. After the State Semi, the two coaches shared their head thoughts. Brad Bradley & Kevin Saunders have always been good to me, and you can hear the recap from almost 14 years ago here on The Sports Buffet Podcast, with this classic episode.

Mike Padgett was the head coach of the Amherst Lancers, Paul Johnson was the head coach of the Heritage Pioneers. They were both very kind to me throughout the years and were very gracious with their time. Chris Ellis and Jon Dansby were two players off of Heritage who shared their thoughts as well.

It was a rare Sunday game. Heritage High School was the site for the Jefferson Forest Cavaliers taking on the Rustburg Red Devils. After the game I was able to talk to Krystal (Ellis) Harris, Michelle Riddle and Wendy Almond from Rustburg. Jefferson Forest Head Man, Gary Harris shared his thoughts as well,.

It's a flashback episode on The Sports Buffet. In 2006, Morhead (NC) travelled up to Naruna, to take on William Campbell. Mickey Crouch was coaching Morhead. I only had the pleasure of talking to Coach Crouch, I think four times. For me it was a treat. Coach Crouch passed away a little over two years ago. To say he was everyone's cup of tea, probably wouldn't be 100 percent truthful. But, I found Coach Crouch engaging and humorous (and most importantly truthful and straight forward). He recapped this trip up to Virginia on The Sports Buffet Podcast.

Back in 2006, Morehead (NC) made the trip up to Naruna, to take on William Campbell. At the time, Brad Bradley was the head football coach at William Campbell. So many similarities in what Coach Bradley was then and what he is now. Coaches lose games and players win games. After a loss, it was the next game up (and it still is) for Coach Bradley. Hear this interview on The Sports Buffet Podcast, as we go back in the vault.

Everyone at Altavista will tell you that ATC (Athletic Trainer) Angela Emerson is a MVP for all the sports teams. Back in the day of "Talking High School Sports", Angela was a contributor to Bumps and Bruises. It was a segment to where Athletic Trainers would talk about an issue that they were passionate about and how to deal with it. In this edition, Angela talks about the very painful "Plantar fasciitis". In this edition, Angela tell us what it is, how to help it, and more.

Doug Day is one of the better guys you'll find around. Back in 2005-2006, I spoke with the head boys basketball coach at Blacksburg, after they defeated Gretna. The game was at Franklin County High School as part of the Member One Classic. Here's a classic flashback with Doug Day.

Sunday Jun 09, 2024

When I get together with former Lynchburg area basketball coach, Tom Brown, we can talk and talk and talk. "Laker" Tom (as he was known when he first interacted) can always go down memory lane with historical takes (on his favorite teams especially) and he gave some thoughts on the Lakers history, and does Danny Hurley want to become involved in that history?
