Raceland comes into the game with a commanding 70-7 first round win over Berea. The Rams have made tremendous strides over the course of the season. The passing game has continued to improve and despite injuries in Raceland's backfield, they have been a threat to run the ball on any opponent. The defense has been the anchor behind this young Rams team and their tough schedule against opponents like Ashland, Pikeville, Highlands, and Lexington Christian is starting to pay off. Raceland, having won 6 of their last 7, comes in poised and ready to contend for the state title in 1A.

Eminence is 6-4 and they come into this game having won 4 of their last 5 with their lone loss in that stretch being against Sayre who is 11-0. The Warriors, coached by Ryan Jones, are led by Blaze Berry at quarterback who comes in completing 66% of his passes and scoring 19 touchdowns through the air. Landon Smither has run for 13 touchdowns on the season and Everett Starks averages just over 22 yards per reception. This team has the ability to put points on the should be an intriguing matchup!

Kook TV for the win!

Raceland's Coach Salmons speaking highly of Eminence's QB, Blaze Berry.  Stating he can make a lot happen with his feet, in addition to his D1 throwing ability.  

Salmons speaking about the hard running Landon Smithers of Eminence.  

The plan for Raceland is long sustained drives.  "The best defense is a good offense".  

Salmons talking about Raceland's offense by committee.  No thousand yard rushers.  Jacob Waller just over a thousand yards passing.  No real star, just a lot of people doing their jobs. 

Raceland will be giving a big dose of Shannon Marushi between the tackles, with a side of Parker Ison off Tackle and receiving.  Jacob Waller will be you passer, kicker, punter and may deliver some popcorn at halftime. 

Raceland wins the toss and will receive and will driving toward the scoreboard.  

Eminence kicks to the Raceland 15, Ison returns across the 50 and is finally brought down at the Eminence 25.
