WINCHESTER -- Maryland suburbia, in spots, is drenched in football tradition. There are those classic Washington Catholic Athletic Conference battles between Good Counsel and Dematha, which draw crowds by the thousands every year; there is the recent rise of the Montgomery County Class 4A Sherwood Warriors, who often rank among Maryland's top 10 programs.
The smile on my face may never fade away. On Wednesday night, my favorite team in the entire world -- the New York Yankees -- won their 27th championship.
WINCHESTER -- Shenandoah strong safety Larry Gibbs leads the USA South with six interceptions. Traveling to conference-leading N.C. Wesleyan on Saturday, Gibbs will have plenty of opportunities to add to his total.
WINCHESTER -- In the city of Virginia Beach, there is a long, forest green hill that stands 60 feet high, and marks the center of Mount Trashmore Park.
In honor of Halloween, I considered having everyone change their photos for the forecast this week. It's something we did several years ago and yes, I am that uncreative. However, it became quickly apparent that it would not be a good idea this year.
WINCHESTER -- The Shenandoah Hornets (1-6, 0-4) still boast the best defense in the USA South conference. They still boast the best scoring defense, the best pass defense and the best total defense. They allow the fewest first downs and the fewest fourth-down conversions.
WINCHESTER -- Vern Lunsford took a seat in a room at the Aikens Athletic Center at Shenandoah University, his body battered and his left hand possibly broken.
WINCHESTER -- Don't be fooled by Shenandoah left tackle Jamal Venable. Don't be fooled by his tossed, lazy hair, his black, baggy sweat pants or his early morning shuffle. And don't be fooled by his immense 6-foot-5, 260-pound frame or his quiet demeanor.
