It looks like Graham High School’s first football meeting with Southern Gap will have to wait another year.
On Friday night, No. 4 Gate City ousted the No. 5 Eagles 49-14 in the new school’s first-ever VHSL Region 2D playoff appearance. The Blue Devils (8-3) will meet Graham (10-1) in next week’s Region 2D second round game with Graham as the host team.

The G-Men opened the 2D playoffs on Friday night with a 43-0 shutout of Lee High at Witten Field-Bulldog Stadium at Tazewell, Va.
On the other side of the Region 2D bracket No. 2 Ridgeview beat No. 7 Central Wise 28-6 and No. 3 Union defeated No. 6 Virginia High 48-7. The Wolfpack (9-2) and the Bears (9-2) will collide on Rose Ridge next week.
Other scores of local note:
— Montcalm’s first-ever playoff appearance in football ended Friday night in a 55-14 loss at Wheeling Central Catholic. The Maroon Knights will face Pendleton County in next week’s Class A quarterfinal.
— Craig County defeated Eastern Montgomery to advance in the VHSL Region 1C bracket. The fascinating, unbeaten, No 1 Rockets (10-0) will take on No. 4 Auburn (8-2) at Newcastle next week. The Eagles narrowly dodged an upset at the hands of Narrows (pun intended) outlasting the Green Wave 35-32 in Friday’s opening round clash at Riner.
