Big Five -0-

Final 46-0 Pikeville.

Pikeville - 46 5:02 left in the game on a running clock. HC - 0

Pikeville subbing freely, starting about halfway through the 1st half. Hoping to see Freshman Issac McNamee light up the board a time or two in the 2nd half. This young man is so talented to be as young as he is. Holy Cross' achilles heel in this game has been bad snaps.…. something like ten bad snaps over the qb's head, just in the 1st qtr.

Yes. That is correct.

That is correct. One Senior played offense, and the other played defense. Wyatt Battaile had a knee injury in football practice before the season got underway. He wanted to return, but his injury was just too bad to take that chance. Really good qb that was gifted at running the ball, or passing it. He was healed up by basketball season, and will enroll at Louisville this fall.

Pikeville had a fine off season with lots of enthusiasm, great turnout in the weight room. Pikeville has all the tools it needs with the talent, heart, coaching, and fantastic fan support. Imo, the Panthers just need to work their butts off in practice, and take it one game at a time, and keep their eyes on the goal (Kroger Field). Look for a great season for the Pikeville Panthers by taking it a step further.

Agree. Many smaller schools in the East are still solvent at this time for the reasons you mentioned. however, there is caution for several small school systems due to a sharp downturn in the coal industry. That industry is making a modest comeback as of now, but is it enough to keep these small schools open ? Time will tell. Anything short of diversification of industry in these communities have to be a concern. One key word you mentioned is "manage". That factor is so important. '

The kid was a gamer. Very impressed with his run ability. Any team would benefit greatly with him in the lineup. Best of luck to him in his future endeavors.

Did the RB Smith kid graduate ?

Pikeville was in the same boat as Raceland. No one gave them a chance all season long. If not for shooting themselves in the foot with so many silly mistakes, then who knows ? 1-A East is going to be fun to watch next season as lots of talent returns to some teams.

Congrats to the Golden Eagles. Bring back the gold to Johnson Co. next week. Pikeville Panthers will be pulling for y'all. Good luck at state !!

Congrats Corbin Redhounds. Must have been one heck of a game. Now, go on to Kroger Field and bring back the gold ! Pikeville Panthers will be pulling for y'all, and the Raceland Rams !!

Congrats to the Rams on a great win. Will be pulling for you in Lexington. First of the season, didn't think either the Rams or Panthers would have made it this far. Rams finally put it together late in the season when it counted, and the Panthers with all of it's youth grew up fast and really came together with all of the talent it has. Taking a look in the future of single A, this Pikeville program is going to be scary good for the foreseeable future. Here's one Pikeville fan that will be cheering you on at Kroger Field. Good luck and great game Rams !!

Go to EKBtv.com. It's possible they might livestream it. I do know that it will be replayed Saturday evening @ 8:pm, and Sunday @ 4:pm and @ 8:pm.

Hope so. Lot of good history between these two programs.
