Message: [QUOTE="oldude, post: 2604783, member: 7511"] So let me fill you in on Hopewell HS. The HS serves the town of Hopewell and parts of surrounding Prince George County. The area has seen better days. At present, approximately 20% of Hopewell residents live below the federal poverty line. Not a lot of kids from Hopewell end up attending college, but through the years they've fielded extremely competitive football and basketball teams, made up of tough, working class kids. Currently, Hopewell's boy's team is ranked #1 in the State of VA by Maxpreps. The girls team is ranked #7 by Maxpreps. I'm not suggesting that ESPN's rankings are necessarily wrong, but there are a lot of schools around the country with talent, that maybe are not exactly on ESPN's radar. Hopewell may be one of those schools. [/QUOTE]
