When we last left Strasburg Coach Burner and Coach Morgan were leading their teams in a Spirited game of Girls Hoops - 24 Hours Later they were ...









Pictures include pre-game, 1ST half & 2ND half and of course the Ram.

Friday night at 250 Ram Drive was one for the ages as two of Shenandoah County's finest were going toe to toe while leading their teams in the back half of a Home and Home between Stonewall Jackson & Strasburg.

Both coaches, Strasburg's Joel Morgan and the Generals Jeff Burner were incredibly animated during the Rams 41-34 victory. The defensive intensity was as high as I have seen during the 2008-2009 season and that went for both squads. Junior Jenna Smoot led the home team with 15 points and 13 rebounds but the game was in doubt until Strasburg connected on four late free throws to complete the two game sweep.

Saturday night it was the boys turn to take the floor under the watchful eye of the Ram mounted high on the Gym wall. The girls game ended Friday night but the conversation between Burner and Morgan picked right back up on Saturday night in the corner of the gym.

Now that the two contests between the County rivals have been played, the two long time Coaches can go back to just talking High School Basketball. From just before the opening tip until the beginning of the fourth quarter the pair traded stories and game plans for their upcoming District schedules.

Strasburg will begin Bull Run play after a Monday make-up game with Page County while Stonewall faces Eastern Mennonite on Tuesday before heading into Shenandoah District play...

Central High School - Coach Jerry Walters & The Falcons Family Tree- Pics 1ST

After spending a couple of hours with Mr. John Galle of the Shenandoah Valley Herald in Woodstock I made the two mile drive over to Central High School. The Lady Falcons were playing Broadway and one thing you can always count on at Central is the chance to visit with some folks that will make you feel right at home. Tonight was no different, except the opportunity to trade stories with none other than Valley Coaching Legend Jerry Walters. On our site Jerry is also known as Jeff''s Dad but for tonight we will call him Coach. Coach spent 34 years working the sidelines at Central until his retirement following the 2004-2005 campaign. While I have known Coach for a few years, it wasn't until Thursday night that I was able to spend what I would call one on one plus time. See, Coach is a magnet to folks in the gym and each one of them brings another couple of stories to the forefront.
