Old conference foes meet up this Thursday (Varsity 7pm) at Marion Kirby Stadium to break in the new field! Mt Tabor at Page. Should be a good one.

Sure, until you're playing in literal mud by late September. Because 5 different sporting teams are using the field...Awful. Makes me want to heave since football should always be played on real natural grass.
Yes, I understand that issue with high school programs and that the large majority of them do not have the resources/manpower to keep a grass field pristine into November. But schools with grass fields have been keeping them up for years and there is no reason why this cannot continue. And I should have prefaced my comment by saying it applied more to pro and college teams. They do have vast resources and manpower to maintain a grass field. No college or pro team should ever have artificial surfaces. Doing so is only a sign of laziness and being cheap. As well, grass is better for the health of the players and stays cooler in scorching hot weather.Sure, until you're playing in literal mud by late September.

We aren't huge fans of the P at midfield. We wanted a Pirate decal or at least a Pirate Flag.....I only have 1 issue - I like it but I think the P at mid field should have a white outline instead of black imo
Page's field is not only used by Page, it is a community field and also one of our feeder middle schools use it too.Yes, I understand that issue with high school programs and that the large majority of them do not have the resources/manpower to keep a grass field pristine into November.

That specific P has been used quite a bit. I was just saying im not a big fan of it. It's better than nothing.What the heck is that P at midfield? Nobody has ever seen a P like that with any thing Page related? If anything they should have just left it blank. That's awful. The AD should have shot that down
The game was always scheduled for Thursday. It was a mutual decision by both ADs.Why is this game being played tonight?
Ugh...no telling how bad this will get when Page plays Grimsley. Could be a running clock in the second half.Page got all the way down to the 5, 1st and goal and end up throwing a pick six from the 8. We are sorry.
40-6
4th
They had 3-4 injuries last nightTabor is going to have a great year... Got a bye week...they look healthy again...then at West Forsyth on 9-15-23.
A Pirate flag would've looked cool. Nice field!We aren't huge fans of the P at midfield. We wanted a Pirate decal or at least a Pirate Flag.....
That Harrison Kid is I think 6-8 and he is the starting Center for the 2A State Runners Up against Farmville Central. Just a Soph at that. Somebody from Reidsville told me on Thursday that he wants to play Football and Basketball in College like Julius Peppers and Charlie Ward did in College.Biggest takeaways from the game last night.
Page had numerous plays where the ball carrier was initially stopped for a loss or minimal gain and they were unable to wrap up and get them down, resulting in a big play for 10+ yards.
Page had a hardtime sustaining blocks up front.
Page was undisciplined.
All 3 things are coachable, and hopefully the bye week coming up will fix some things.....
The new turf field is AWESOME and our new PA announcer is awesome. He is the guy who does the PA for the Greensboro Swarm and other Greensboro minor league teams.
If I had to rank all 3 non conference opponents I would say... Dudley 1, Mt Tabor 2, Reidsville 3.
Best player we saw out of all the D1 prospects is easily the 6'7 240 Harrison kid from Reidsville.
Tough pill to swallow for the fans, alums, and friends.
It might get pretty bad... Page had like a 25+ year winning streak against Grimsley back in the 80s-90s-00s and another 12 year streak after 2006. So, Grimsley will do everything they can to embarrass us. It's part of this great rivalry. We pulled down their pants for so many years, only right that it's their turn now. lolUgh...no telling how bad this will get when Page plays Grimsley. Could be a running clock in the second half.
It's been 4 in a row now, this year would be 5.Yep been many long winning streaks and beatings at the hand of Page. Grimsley working on a 6 or 7 year streak right now. You said it all, and hopefully we get these two programs good at the same time soon
Bring Back RolfesPage very undisciplined and sloppy.
34-6 3rd quarter
Page will be back, soon enough.That turf is a buffet of TDs for every visiting team.
I hope so, this confrence needs strength to stay relevant.Page will be back, soon enough.
This conference is done. In a couple years we go to 7 classificationsI hope so, this confrence needs strength to stay relevant.
