SWVA Football Classics
SWVA Football Classics is dedicated to preserving and sharing classic high school football games from Southwest Virginia, with a special focus on the old Lonesome Pine District (LPD) and surrounding regions.
This channel features full-game footage, rivalry matchups, playoff battles, and unforgettable Friday night moments from schools and programs that shaped football history in Wise County and beyond — including many teams that no longer exist but will never be forgotten.
These games are presented as historical archives, capturing the atmosphere, rivalries, players, and communities of a different era of high school football. From muddy fields to packed bleachers, this is football the way it used to be.
Shoutout to everyone who helped me acquire these tapes to preserve these memories for future generations. And a big thank you to John Clark who is responsible for almost every video and most commentary on the channel!!
