Queen Harrison returns to Hermitage High today
U.S. Olympian Queen Harrison is returning to her alma mater today in western Henrico County. A 2006 graduate of Hermitage High School, Harrison will be the keynote speaker at Hermitage’s Expectations of Excellence assembly. Harrison, now a student at Virginia Tech, was back on the Blacksburg campus in late August right after competing at the Summer Olympics in Beijing, where she had a disappointing performance in the 400-meter hurdles. Harrison ran more than a second slower than her personal best and fell far short of qualifying for the finals.

High School Notes: Titans’ Hoepner made the right call
James River senior Nick Austin is the two-time defending Central Region individual champion. Late in Cosby’s Dominion District football game against Monacan on Friday night, Titans quarterback Fuller Hoepner called his own number on third and 7 instead of passing or handing off to running back Terry Williams. Hoepner, a 6-0, 185-pound junior, ran the quarterback draw and picked up 16 yards to the Monacan 1-yard line and set up Williams’ game-clinching TD.
