I believe the record at West is 8 wins. It was '87 or '88.

 

In 86 the Comets had the first winning season in school history. 8-3 They won the first 8 games and did compete in the district but a late season loss to Lewis County cost them a playoff berth.

 

The 87 version went 6-5 tied for the district championship but lost the playoff scenario when they lost to East Carter. The two Carter County schools played twice that season splitting the games.

 

The 88 version was in a district realignment situation and had to travel to Newport. They were competetive but finished 5-6.

Okay I stand corrected. I knew that one of those teams in the 80's was really good, I just couldn't remember which one. I don't know why I thought they didn't compete in district play, maybe because of not making the playoffs. :thumb:

East Carter had a team go 11-0 I think that did not compete in the district. It would have been Dane Damron's senior year. 90 I think.

Lewis County shut them out in '85. It was the graduating class of 1986.

Yes graduating class of 86

Well I don't think Lewis or Russell will shut West out this year....

Oh Okay. That's where I got that from. Thanks for clearing that up. :thumb:

I heard that Russell's practices are closed this week? any truth to that? is this a normal thing at Russell?

I think West Carter will make a game of it and keep the score close. But, in the end, Russell will win – by 7.

TCB!!!

Wait a second Doc who's that for^^?:lol:

Great info, it sounds like West was a good team at the time.
