Belfry at Lawrence County Predictions/Updates

[ATLCat]

Top seeding in the District most likely is on the line as Belfry travels to Louisa to face the Bulldogs. 

 

Belfry enters fresh off a loss to in heartbreaking fashion to 6A North Hardin. The Pirates played well, but could not secure the victory as they conceded a late TD. Belfry showed a new twist to their offense, but expect the Pirates to return to their bread and butter here. Isaac Dixon failed to find the endzone but did not fail to disappoint as his Mr. Football campaign remains strong. Brett Coleman scored all three TD's from the QB spot and led the Pirates in rushing.

After COVID-19 wreaked havoc on Lawrence County's pre-season and the start of their 2020 season, the Bulldogs have came off the mat to secure two impressive District victories including a shutout of a surprisingly stout Magoffin County team and last weeks 1-point nail biter over Pike County Central. Lawrence County now has the inside track to hosting a first round playoff game, and if they knock off Belfry, will all but lock up a District Title. 

Dylan Ferguson has been exceptional for the Bulldogs in their first two victories and Belfry has not exactly been a brick wall against power running so far. The Pirates are expected to start getting some key players back healthy this week and in the coming weeks. DE/LB Rudy Blackwell has a bright future for Belfry and was a prominent part of the defense last year before being lost in the Semi-Finals with a knee injury, he will play his first snaps this week. Seth Mounts is nearing a return at the MLB spot and the D-1 prospect has to be itching to put the pads back on.
