2023-2024 Football Realignment
farawaycomet2 replied to Seybold24's topic in KY Football (High School)
Not 100% of what the issue is with West Carter? The 2019-2020 Draft Alignment had West Carter listed 3A District 6 (w/ 2A Enrollment). They ended up playing in 2A District 8. The 2023-2026 Draft Alignment has West Carter listed 3A District 6 (w/ 2A Enrollment). I believe that West Carter will end up playing 2A District 7 (FCC, KCC, Martin Co., P-Burg). West Carter has had a lot of success staying 2A. Playing in 2A District 7 this alignment will be less travel than the previous alignment and allows them to stay playing teams in EKY. Also, I noticed that their was no response listed under the 2023 FOOTBALL REALIGNMENT – RESPONSES FROM MEMBERSHIP ON CLASS BOUNDARIES on the KHSAA website. Maybe there is some kind of mix-up? -
2023-2024 Football Realignment

Fairview should attempt to play up in 2A. -
The same type of people that yell at officials also yell at the athletes and coaches. Additionally I was referring that high school officials need to be paid more money. I have coached multiple sports at every level and I have never received at technical foul or personal foul flag or anything of that nature as a coach. I have also officiated various sports. As far as a higher standard is concerned knowing the rules should be a requirement and I am not referring to judgement calls, specifically procedural penalties within high school football.. I know for a fact that the answers to the officials test are passed around. Higher pay would attract and retain more officials. Your know if all soapbox response with all caps, leads me to believe you have yelled at an official or two. Do you have any solutions? or ideas?

East Carter vs. Ashland Predictions/Updates

This game is not a regional championship game. This is the 3A District 7 Championship. There isn't a 16 Region in football. -

Martin wasn't worried about their RPI last season when they refused to play West Carter. -
West Carter 22 East Carter 16

Great game. The kids from East and West played hard. The rivalry still exist for the adults in Grayson. West Carter was denied a locker room and they turned the stadium lights out of WC players and families as they were taking pictures after the game. But its hard on them, the barrel stayed in Grayson often 20-30 years ago. -
West Carter at East Carter Predictions/Updates
farawaycomet2 replied to 16thBBall Fan's topic in KY Football (High School)
Over the past ten years West Carter had beat East Carter 7 out of 10 by an average of 28 points per game. The three wins for East Carter were decided by an average of 3.6 points per game. West Carter has 13 seniors on the roster this year which is not typical for the Comets, they have played and won a lot of games. I'll take the Comet seniors in this Battle for the Barrell. -

West Carter - 2021 Schedule
farawaycomet2 replied to GOREDDEVILS's topic in KY Football (High School)
Hopefully we will get to play the season opener against Rowan County. East Carter softball was allowed to play in Allstar Game last night, even after ALL extra circular activities were to be canceled in the district. But the powers on the East end of the county are actively trying to sabotage the West Carter Football program, so who knows? -
Carter County School District has not taken the vote to allow or not allow the supplemental year and will not do so till May 17th. This is very unfortunate for the kids who are in the CTE/Vocational Programs in the district, they have simply not had the same amount of hours/instruction/practice for these trade career fields that they would have got in a normal year. Many kids in these programs have progressed themselves out of poverty via these high paying trade jobs. Word on the street is that the Board members on the West end of the county are for granting the supplemental year and the Board members on the East end are not. It’s likely to get very interesting in the month to come because I am afraid that decisions by the Administration and BOE are being based sports. West Carter would have major advantage over East Carter if the athletes at West utilized the supplemental year.
