I thought Loudoun Valley interior lineman Aiden Oliver (6-3, 275) was one of the college lineman coaches when he showed up for the Loudoun County Showcase @AidenOliverLVFB

[Matt Vess @CoachVess]

Tell um! ☝️

[Will Vapreps Garlick @WillVapreps]

Loudoun Valley rising senior Ethan LaFollette may be the most slept-on player in the Region. He was a 1st team All-Region RB (1630 yards) and a 2nd team All-Region DB (3 pick sixes) @ethanlaf3 @VaPrepsRivals

Not going to find a stronger or tougher student-athlete pound for pound than @braedenman22 …easily throwing up 275 on Hang Clean this morning. This returning starter OLB/FB & off-season leader is just getting started 💪🏽

This team lives by the motto, "Be Different." And they live it, honor to see them practicing on Thanksgiving!

[David Bishop 🏈 @CoachDaveBishop]

There’s not much better as a football player than a Thanksgiving practice — it means we’re still playing. A great morning for the @FBvikingstrong program. These young men have put in the work to make it happen.

Huge thank you to all the alumni who stopped by. You laid the groundwork for our culture and our program… 60+ years of tradition standing with us.

Thank you to the parents for the hot chocolate and Thanksgiving treats. It’s a blessing to have this family together and to feel the strength of the Viking community.
