FOOTBALL The Big Stone Gap Buccaneers, under their new Coach, Jeter Barker, came into State prominence in the 1939 season. They were beaten but once, at the hands of the East Stone Tigers, and this by a margin of one point. They defeated all other Wise County Teams including the Appalachia Bulldogs, 18 to 0; this gave the Buccaneers the title of “Wise County Champions.’’ A 30 to 0 defeat of William Byrd High School, Roanoke, gave the team the District Championship. They then had an opportunity to play for title of the Western division of the State against Clifton Forge. The game ended a tie, 0 to 0. Four of the team made All-County: Body, tackle; Tucker, half-back; Graham, fullback; Kilbourne, quarter- back. Kilbourne made the All-District team. The Buccaneers lose seven men by graduation; Moore, Callahan, Kilbourne, Burdette, Cummings, Lane, and Orr.
