RURAL RETREAT – When two undefeated teams clash on the football field, one has to come away a loser.

The loser last Friday night was Rural Retreat after Grayson County rolled into Indian country and came away with a 52-13 nondistrict victory for the Blue Devils.

Grayson County set the tone of the game early when Zack Vaughan took the opening kickoff and, after some nifty running and breaking tackles, rambled 73 yards for the touchdown with only 16 seconds ticked off the clock. Mario Ruiz kicked the extra point for the 7-0 lead.

INDEPENDENCE — Grayson County hopes to partner with the City of Galax and Carroll County in making more than a half-million dollars in improvements to the Twin County Regional Airport.
The airport’s goal is to make the three localities more attractive to potential businesses.
Tom Jones, Chairman of the Twin Count Regional Airport Commission, met with the board during its regular meeting last Thursday night to talk about four projects the airport hopes to undertake at its facility near Interstate 77 in Carroll County.
