I'm hearing that Madison, Yancey, Mitchell and Avery counties will be running JV foot ball like the Smoky Mtn Conference with grades 7-8-9 and varsity will be 10-12. Madison Middle has been playing in the Blue Ridge Conference. The last I knew Cane River, E. Yancey, Bowman, Harris, and the consolidated Avery team were in the Toe River Conference but I believe I had heard earlier that Mitchell and Yancey had combined or were going to combine their MS teams also. Does anyone have more insight on this?
