This is a link that shows Gville's records back to 1980.

 

In 82, Gville went 11-1, losing to Marion in the playoffs.

In 83, Gville went 11-3, runner-up to ECS

In 84, State Champs

In 85, 5-4

In 86 11-1, losing to SP in the second or third round

in 87, 10-3, losing to Greenback in the semi's

In 88, 11-3, losing to DCA in the semi's.

 

Considering there was on 3 classes, and only the top 2 in the district made the playoffs. This was a heck of a run.

I know OldTiger55 was a part of these teams, not sure about TigerTradition, though.

Croz prior to the 1985 season only one team went to the playoffs. I can remember playing Westy in 84 and Coach Medley coming in the locker room and telling us the Industrial bowl was inviting us in case Westy beat us. To this day I can remember those Srs. telling him to thank them but Westy would be coming.

after my time

All I can say is you fellers from South Pitt better fear the BIG MAC ATTACK next year especially since that Grider man may be movin on to greener pastures.

have you see our young teams play against your young teams. Them young teams didn't need Grider to beat your young teams. Keep dreaming. I have heard this for many years now. Hasn't changed and I see nothing that's gonna change it. We got the talent no matter if u got Mac or not.

That's what Old Pirate thought.....you fellers have had a good seven (58-26 / 37-12 last four thus far, should be after season 40-12 Edited November 14, 2012 by OLD PIRATE

The way the playoffs are watered down now, has changed things a little.

I played in the late 90's and we never made it out of the first round.

We got put out by FRA, BGA, CPA, and DCA. 3 of those are in D2 and CPA is in 3A.

Only one of those games was a blowout. DCA beat us by 22-20, CPA was a one score game as was FRA, I believe. BGA beat us with Troy Fleming 42-0, and it was only 7-0 at half.

If things were set up then like they are now. We would've been a 2nd or 3rd round team every year.

That's why I think it's more significant what Gville was able to do in the 80's.

Old Pirate totally agrees, SP was eliminated by those + TC many times in the 90s. Way tougher back then with all the privates & Boyd was also good.

I remember that 1980 game during the regular season at SP. We then played them again in 85 or 86 during the playoffs. What happened to Troy Claiborne? I believe he was early 2000s? Also didn't you guys have a RB named George or something that was really good?
