2003 master schedule corrections

IF YOU'VE DOWNLOADED THE VHSL MASTER SCHEDULE :

Did you know that a CORRECTED master schedule was posted Aug. 4th? And again on Aug. 11th?
Will ANOTHER version be posted?

After going through Regions III, IV, C & D, and their out-of-state opponents, here are Aug. 4th changes I found :

Oct. 3 : Christiansburg at Salem is now Oct. 10th.
Oct. 3 : Honaker at Rye Cove is now a non-district game at Honaker.
Oct. 31 : E. Mont. @ Radford has been switched to become Radford @ E. Mont.

Div. 2 : James Monroe's opponent - Summers Co. (NC) - has been corrected to WV.
Div. 2 : Phelps (WV) has been corrected to Div. 1 Phelps, KY.


These items were corrected on the Aug. 11th version :

The following games are now correctly listed as non-district games :
Sept. 26 : Craig @ Bland
Oct. 3 : Tazewell @ Gate City
Oct. 10 : Appy @ St. Paul
Oct. 31 : JJ Kelly @ Cloudland (TN)
Nov. 7 : Parry McCluer @ Wilson Memorial

Nov. 7 : Carroll Co. @ Graham has been moved to Sat., since Mitchell Stadium will host Lee Co. @ Bluefield (WV) on Friday night.


These items MIGHT be corrected later on :

Whitesburg is listed with the Group A out-of-state schools, but they ARE Div. 3.

A Lee Co. opponent - Middlesboro - has made a change in their schedule.
Instead of Clay Co., the Jackets open with Ashland Blazer at the City County Bowl at Bell Co. H.S. on Sat., 8/23

Div. 3 Ruthledge (TN) has no 'h' in the middle.

Div. 2 Unaka (TN) has no game on 8/22, according to the TSSAA.

The TSSAA & Claiborne's website has the Thomas Walker - Claiborne game on 8/29, not 8/22.

A Thomas Walker opponent, the Cumberland Gap (TN) Panthers, aren't listed because the newly-combined school (YEAAAAA, we finally get rid of Powell Valley, Tenn.) didn't have their enrollment numbers figured on time. Their schedule :
Aug  22    Rutledge        Oct   3  @ Happy Valley
     29      open               10    Thomas Walker (VA)
Sept  5  @ S. Greene            17    Hampton
     12    Union Co.            24  @ Gatlinburg-Pittman
     19  @ Chuckey-Doak         31    West Greene
     26  @ Claiborne


other tidbits :

The Sept. 5th Twin Valley "at" Whitesburg game is actually at a neutral site (Grundy), but the VHSL's computer program won't 'N'eutralize a location.

Div. 3 Unico, TN is spelled incorectly - it's Unicoi.

Magna Vista, Big Creek (WV), Bluefield (WV), Jenkins (KY) still have just 9 games listed.

Unaka (TN) has at least 3 different schedules online, so I'm not sure when they open.


On Aug. 6th, the Potomac News reported that AAA Gar-Field's field won't be ready on time, so they've moved the Sept. 5th opener vs. Osbourne to Potomac and the Sept. 19th game vs. Stonewall Jackson to C.D. Hylton.

Pikeville's News-Express recently reported that the renovation of the field at Pikeville STILL isn't finished, so the Pike Co. Bowl games for Friday, 8/22, have been moved to Shelby Valley. Also, a decision will be made on Monday about the location of the Saturday, 8/23 games.
