Q man

I heard about Knox but I hadn't heard anything about Clay or Bell. I know both Spurlock and Morris personally and couldn't imagine their schools wanting to make a change.

You're right but I am hearing rumors and I just wanted some conformation. Coaches leaving one job could effect coaching hires other places.

I'm hearing rumors about coaching changes in the 13th, 14th and 15th Regions. Anyone know anything yet?

Lafayette 79 Tony Wilson Western Dirk Minnifield U K Junior Johnson Cincinnatti Curt Rose Transy

1975 Male (Griffith & Turner) 1977 Ballard (Lamp, Raker & Eaves) 1979 Lafayette (Minnefield, Johnson) 1986 Hazard (Wallace, North & Combs) 1987-1988 Clay Co. (Farmer & Chadwell) 1992 UHA (Allaway & Cline) 1993 Dunbar (Burton & Mills) There are others. But I think that I followed these teams the closest.

Tate Cox from Knott Central and Josh Whitaker from Hazard have to be mentioned.

Its according to which Hazard team shows up. I have heard that Polson is a heck of a player but if Whitaker and Jones show up for the Bulldogs, they will be hard to beat.

However Whitaker plays is how well Hazard plays.

This makes the Bulldogs 3rd trip to Rupp in the last 4 years.

I thought that this might be a trap game for Hazard. Lee is very athletic. They had emotion on their side and they brought a lot of fan support. Hazard had several players with a stomach virus and didn't look to emotionally fired up for the game. But Lee loooked like they gave up in the second quarter. Hazard played as well as they had to to win. Has this been Lee's rap all season? I thought that they looked much more capable than what they showed.

It's not the kids. It's the adults.

I'm not saying that Powell County shouldn't have the opportunity to host the region if they have the proper facility. I'm just saying that it is a long drive. As it is for the 56th to drive to Letcher. I don't know the answer. I'm just stating a fact.

The two biggest upsets in the 54th that I can recall were: 1990 Leslie Co. over Hazard in OT. Hazard had beaten them tree times in double figures that year. 1993 Hazard over Dilce Combs. Dilce had won the All "A" State Tournament that year and had defeated Hazard rather easily in their previous two meetings.

No real surprises here. The draw will be interesting. The drive to Powell County will be brutal for the 53rd and 54th.

This could have been a good game but Hazard showed up and played excellent. Six players in with ten or more points shows me that it was a total team effort. Can't wait until Friday when the Bulldogs take on Perry Central for the Disrict Championship.
