SPORTS MAN

Prestonsburg just could not cover the kick off. I think this is probally the best Pburg has looked all year though. They had a few passes fall short. If they could have made it down feild this game could have been interesting. In all honesty i wasn't that impressed with Ashland. They are going to have alot of trouble out of JC this year. JC would probally name the score on the team i watched tonight.

Prestonsburg needs to pull together in practice tomorrow and get some fire in their bellies! Go Blackcats!

I will mention this again. Belfry a 2a powerhouse was a power house when they played 3a. Sheldon Clark a very competitve team year in year out in 2a had alot of success in 3a. They oboviously was not dominated by the "far superior" ,larger 3a schools. And this was not that long ago they played 3a.

Belfry and Sheldon Clark are both 2a teams that competed very sucessfully in 3a football. Even Sheldon Clark with the limited numbers and limited finances, especially compared to most 3a schools, had a great deal of success in 3a.

I have to say i like Pikeville's offense. Prestonsburg look much improved over last week but could not contain pikevilles backs. Number 24 looked great. The quaterback looked very settled in there as well.

Money is one reason. Two it would get them ready to play a team like belfry. JC is a team that will put the ball on the ground and eat up alot of clock. I would say replace the first game with JC.

I would love to see this match up. But I would rather see a local match up. I could see a big rival game developing between JC and Pburg.

I think it depends on how much they play Dials. I expect them to rest him as much as they can. SC 45 KC 7 with Hager giving his offense an early night.

Alot of mistakes on both sides of the ball by both squads. You can deffinately tell this was Pburgs first game of the season. I think you will tell a hugh difference next week. Leslie Co really opened up their offense when they moved #3 from QB to RB. Anyone know how many yards he had?

SC will be to much for BC. They have two big running backs that really keep their feet moving. You will see them both break alot of takles. I actaully can't wait to see how the passing game will turn out. Bad weather prevented them from throwing the ball against LC. SC might really open up their offense in this one. I would say Hager will have a couple wholes fixed on defense. SC 42 BC 27

Better season? So are you saying SC will have a better season than last year? That means a region Championship over belfry. I believe you may be right.

Dials had a great game, but so did Kelley. Seemed for a while Hager was running them every other play. BJ looked very good at FB, like he had played it for years.

LC had a kid that could run the ball very well. SC had some problems on defense. There for a while it looked like who ever had last possesion was going to win but then SC really turned it on. This might be one of the best back feilds SC has had in a while. It might even be one of the best back feilds in the mountains this year.

Sheldon CLark has a good back feild and a strong line. The Dials kid ran for 1600 yards last year and didn't even start the first couple games. Kelley will get his hands on the ball quite a bit now that they moved him to HB from FB. Sheldon Clarks biggest loss was on defense. But after seeing LC I will take SCHS 28-12.

No, just this past season

Didn't Ashland beat Marshall at the beginning of their program?

I think one of Prestonsburgs strongest players is the kicker Seth Moore. 455lb deadlift at a body weight of around 165lbs. New USPF state record for his age. I think they may want to try this kid at a few other postions this year.

It was Brad Slone who set a new high school record. He did 405. Then tried for 425 on his second attempt but missed it. Still an impressive lift.

Are you asking what a judge is? Its kind of like a referee in the reguards that he helps regulate the rules.

Pikeville had a few good lifters there. They had a teenager there who did 405 on the bench. I don't think he even weighed 185. There was another kid there who set a teenage record for total lifts from pikeville. Don Feilds son set a couple state records as well. But i think they will have it posted on the multi-sports website.

Count for what? State records? Then no they don't count unless you've done them in a meet. Count for bragging rights? Sure you can brag about anything you want. I'm sorry i didn't know they added a 40 yard dash to track. Oh wait they ddin't. So that arguement doesn't hold. Its different having a coach watch you and having a 3 certified judeges watching you. I've done 480lbs on the bench in a workout. But i can only claim 440 in compitition. The rules are stricter.

Thats true. If they weren't done in a meet they don't count. Powerlifting is a sport just like anything else. There has to be a governing body.

Before you start claiming a 700lb. squat in high school, you better have done that in a sanctioned compitition. USPF, NASA, USAPL all have meets in Ky so get out there and give it a try. With a 700lb squat at this age you could earn some cash by turning pro and getting sponsers. By the way i personally know a few of the kids on this page that have claimed big numbers. To say the least they are a tad exagerated. But if you want to see some real squats you can come to the USPF meet tomorrow, April 1st, at the National Guard Armory in Prestonsburg. Weigh ins are at 8 am. I'll be there.

The game will be rebroadcast on Cablevision at 11:10 p.m. or in 1 minute!

Great Game
