CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (WVIR) - The Riverheads football team made history on their home field on Saturday, as the Gladiators beat Galax 65-29 in the Class 1 state championship game.
The victory gives Riverheads its record-breaking fifth-consecutive state title, and the 8th in program history.
The Gladiators are the first team to win more than four-consecutive VHSL state championships in football.

Duff noted the library, as part of Sheridan County, goes into a holiday at the end of the week, so technically, Smiley won’t assume his new duties until Jan. 4.
