Parry McCluer (6-4) at George Wythe (7-3) WHEN: 7 p.m. on Thursday WHERE: George Wythe High School in Wytheville MATCHUP: No. 6 Parry McCluer at No. 3 George Wythe in the Region 1C quarterfinals SCOUTING THE MAROONS: In a rematch of last year’s Region 1C quarterfinals, George Wythe hopes to have a similar result. As the second seed last year, the Maroons beat the seventh-seeded Fighting Blues 41-22 in Wytheville. GW was one of three teams to lead the Mountain Empire District this year, going 4-1, as did Galax and Grayson County. Against the Blues last year, the Maroons used their running game to jump out to a 15-0 lead after the first quarter and extended their lead to 29-6 by halftime. GW graduated several of its strong runners, but the Maroons still have senior quarterback Tandom Smith, who rushed for 69 yards and passed for 80 yards and a TD against PM last year. The Blues will also want to focus their defense on running back Laden Houston, who scored two TDs in that game. 11/07/2023 11:00 PM
