Dominion District capsules
in predicted order of finish 2008 records: 8-0 Dominion, 9-2
Offense: A talented offensive line, anchored by a pair of 290-pound tackles (senior Allen Spurlock and sophomore Tyler Fisher) should make life sweet for whomever carries the ball. Lionel Williams (6-0, 170, Fr.) might be first in line for that duty. Senior RB Stephen Lee will add backfield depth.

Six area schools on list of nation’s 1,500 best
For the second straight year, six area schools placed among the nation’s top 1,500 high schools in an annual survey conducted by Newsweek magazine. James River High School in Chesterfield County was the area’s top-rated school, coming in at 246. Last year, it topped the area list at 210. The schools were ranked based on a formula that combines the number of Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate and Cambridge tests and divides that by the number of graduating seniors.

Pat’s hand
No, Pat Pinkard didn’t actually invent girls travel basketball. She did, at least in the Richmond area, put wheels on the concept, made it shine and gave it a motherly, loving shove in the right direction. There are numerous year-round hoops options available now, but until the mid-1980s there was no local travel basketball - the ball stopped bouncing at the end of the high school season.

She did not speak or understand when spoken to. “We tried a lot of ways to get through to her, and sign language helped some,“ said her mother, Lynn Shelton. “It wasn’t until she started going to the art and music classes at Alberta Smith Elementary . . . that she really started opening up.“
