The last time the Graham G-Men made a run to the state championship, a 5-foot-10 wide receiver named Ahmad Bradshaw left each opponent Graham faced scratching their heads.
Unfortunately for Bradshaw the G-Men, they came up short of the state crown as they fell to Harrisonburg in 2001.
It has been 17 years since Graham has played for a state title.
A lot has happened in 17 years. Graham has seen four different head coaches in that time span.… 
With Radford having an 11-game winning streak and Graham having a 13-game winning streak, it appeared this match up would be a barn burner. That was not the case, as the G-Men (13-1) throttled the Bobcats (12-2) 57-13 in the state semifinals. Graham forced five first-half turnovers and quarterback Cameron Allen accounted for six first-half scores to jump out to 48-0 halftime lead.
There was commotion on social media about the VHSL forcing games to be moved to alternate locations due to nasty weather and field conditions. … 
It was the Cam Allen show, part II, on Saturday afternoon in Mitchell Stadium.
The senior quarterback accounted for over 250 yards and five touchdowns in helping the Graham G-Men (12-1) push past Richlands (8-5) 38-10.
It only took two plays for Allen to show why he will ultimately be named the region’s player of the year. He hit Devin Lester on a 37-yard bomb to put Graham ahead 7-0.
Richlands wasn’t going to go down without a fight.… 
As Alex Tabor said on Twitter Friday night, there are three things you can count on in life.
Death. Taxes. And Richlands playing past Thanksgiving.
While that may hold true this season, the game itself will be an uphill climb.
Richlands (8-4) and Graham (11-1) met in this same venue five weeks ago; a 45-0 embarrassment as Graham won the Southwest District.
Graham features speed and size, a rare combination in the lower classes of the VHSL.…

Region D, 2A Semi Final
#3 Graham G-Men (11-1): 28
#2 Union Bears (9-3): 7
BIG STONE GAP, Va.,-Consider any demons exorcised. Behind a dominant defense and a big play offense, the Graham G-Men rolled into Bullitt Park and routed the Union Bears 28-7 in the Region D semi final. Bullitt Park had not been kind to the G-Men in recent history, as the Bears had ended the G-Men’s season in two prior occurrences in Big Stone Gap.…
