In Eastern Henrico showdown, Highland Springs stonewalls Varina

The much-anticipated battle for Eastern Henrico football supremacy turned into a one-sided affair Thursday night, as Highland Springs – the top-rated team in Virginia – methodically steamrolled Varina, 29-0, at the Blue Devils’ James E. Dawkins Stadium before a sold-out crowd. Both teams had entered the game 9-0, and Varina was rated No. 9 in the state by MaxPreps, a national high school sports website. Both teams won state titles last year.
