Kool & The Gang blared from the speakers at Williams Stadium late Friday night, singing about a celebration. 

APPOMATTOX — Glenvar coach Kevin Clifford knew going into Friday’s Region 2C championship game what kind of playmakers fill out the Appomattox…

Heritage is aiming for its fourth straight Region 3C championship. Standing in its way is Liberty Christian, which shocked Brookville last week and has emerged as a formidable challenge for the state title. 

“Sometimes, when you know, you know,” Kate Hardie said.

Nothing could stop the Bulldogs, who cruised to a 42-14 victory in the Region 3C semifinal round and knocked Brookville (6-1) from contention. 

In Rustburg, the Red Devils battled back from an early deficit in the third set to add another sweep to their resume, beating Liberty Christian 25-11, 25-19, 25-23 in the Region 3C quarterfinals.

Destiny or fate? The answer depends on which camp you're in.

A look at the day's high school results. 

APPOMATTOX — The first real test came Friday night, seven weeks into the season. Appomattox, it turned out, was well prepared.

Good passing, combined with tough serving, powered the Buffaloes past the Raiders, 3-1.
