Beavers Complete Deal
December 1, 2007 - The Intelligencer & Wheeling News-Register
A program doesn’t win nine state championships by giving up when times get tough.

The allure of playing for a state championship is enough to get schools like Wheeling Central, Williamstown, Parkersburg and Bluefield excited.

Why are two football teams from the southern border of West Virginia playing for the state championship tonight in Wheeling, at least 285 miles away from home?

Madonna Will Have Its Day
November 24, 2007 - The Intelligencer & Wheeling News-Register
Bob Kramer’s Weirton Madonna football team was willing to climb, but it turns out the mountain was just a little too steep.

November 17, 2007 - The Journal
A run of bum luck left Berkeley Springs without a run Saturday afternoon.

For 'the Kids,' Wheeling a Winner
November 7, 2007 - The Intelligencer & Wheeling News-Register
Wheeling is not the only city in West Virginia capable of hosting the annual “Super Six” high school football championship games. Other communities have excellent playing fields. Other areas have plenty of resources to handle the games. Yet, for 14 years, Wheeling has been home to the “Super Six.”

Anyone can win Class AAA prep football race
October 23, 2007 - Charleston Daily Mail
It's hard to remember a recent year in which the Class AAA football championship was as up for grabs as it appears to be this season.
With the playoffs a little more than two weeks away, the state's biggest class has yet to produce a true favorite. There are, rather, more than 10 teams that can stake some kind of legitimate claim that says they're going to reach the Super Six in Wheeling on Nov. 1.

SSAC Changes Super Six Bidding
November 6, 2007 - The Intelligencer & Wheeling News-Register
Gary Ray can do little but smile when he visits Wheeling. As executive director of the West Virginia Secondary Schools Activities Commission, Ray knows a good thing for his agency when he sees it — and the good thing that has come out of Wheeling over the past 14 years is how the city has changed the face of high school sports with its handling of the Super Six state high school football championships.
