Ouch, I'll see if I can get any info from the Pulaski side.

This game sets the Tigers up to score 630 points if they can keep that average up.....

Joe, do you have a halftime score yet?

Thanks Joe! I'm glad that Cole has gotten back in to the game. Hopefully everyone can stay healthy the rest of the way.

That doesn't sound good. Do you know which Maroon it was that hit him?

Anyone have any?

How has each team scored? I'm going to guess that the Warriors have broken a few BIG plays against Rock's uber-aggressive defense for theirs.

I agree with that 100% Warrior Princess.

Don't forger Mercer co. Average Joes. Oh ooops, I forgot you guys messed them out of that game.

I agree with you Average Joes, Somerset should have been in the Corbin Middlesboro district and class. I think that would make for a great district. I am still not and will not buy the excuse of travel. Where are Somerset's other non district games?

Your exactly right Keemo. A three game bowl with all three local schools playing a visitor would be the best. Then we could all root for our local teams to win every game. My opinion( which isn't worth a penny) Somerset would get more respect from the county if they had not previously played in one of the weakest districts in the state and then dodge a tough AA district so they could beat up on jackson and Casey co. Somerset is the only high school in the state who chose to play up in class. Why is that?

Hello everyone, long time no speak. Considering it is so close to the Ray Correl Bowl it was time to come out of my cave. Pulaski will have to play a great game to beat Somerset. Stopping the running of Kenny Hughes and the recieving of John Cole will not be an easy task. Believe me when I say, Pulaski has the weapons to shut Somerset down. I am looking forward to a great overall contest where high school football in Pulaski County is on display. What a great night it will be. Good luck to all teams and let the best teams win.

Get well soon Coach Thomas!

The Maroons haven't beaten the Jumpers in a while, but if the breaks go their way, anything can happen in a rivalry game.

Haley Ratliff from Pike Central has scored over 2600 points in her high school basketball career. She was selected to play on a traveling team with 26 of the top volleyball players on a trip to Hawaii. She has qualified for State in the 100 meter dash in track and she plays SS and bats lead-off for the Lady Hawk softball team. If she wants to play, let her play. By keeping her from playing you will make her resent the sports she does play. Maybe not now, but at some point in the near future.

Haley Ratliff led three Hawks in double figures with 27. Kayla Lowe and Holly Harris chipped in with 17 and 10, respectively. Both teams advance to the 15th Region Tournament next week at East Kentucky Expo Center.

Haley Ratliff from Pike County Central is "doing it on both ends". For the season she is averaging: 19 ppg, 10 rpg, 5 apg, 5 spg. Her shooting percentages are drastically improved over her previous numbers. Overall FG Percentage is at 50, 3-pt FG % is at 39, FT % is at 83. Her assist to turnover ratio is 2.5:1. All of this while playing with three freshman starters and being the only senior on the team (with only 1 junior who plays any minutes).

Howard had 31 points on 11-27 shooting. Central countered with Haley Ratliff's 17 points (4-10 from the field; 7-8 FT), 15 rebounds, and 7 assists, Kayla Lowe added 16, Kayla Pennington 10, while Hannah Thompson and Abby Coleman each had 9, Kayla Ratliff had 7 and Holly Harris chipped in with 4.

Whitney Jackson is going to put up some MONSTER numbers before she graduates.

I am not saying that Pike Central should be ranked, but I have to question how Clay Co. and Magoffin Co. can be ranked ahead of them after the Lady Hawks beat both teams in a three day span. It doesn't matter to me one way or the other, but it makes me question the rationale behind the voting.

A.J. had a high point total, but she had to take a lot of shots and a lot of free throws to get there. I think she was 5-12 from the line, but I could be wrong.

Lady Hawks win Round 1, but there will be at least one more contest between these two.

I was at this game and at no point was it even a contest. Both Jackson and Euton(spell?) were unstoppable tonight. I had heard a lot of hype regarding these two players and was very interested to see if it was true. Well it was and then some in my opinion. These two young men are very, very special. Not only are they talented, they did a great job of leading their team. As I loved the big mans touch and aggressiveness, I don't know the last time I can recall a young guard like Jackson play so effortlessly. Everything he did was just smooth and fun to watch. Great player and great young team. I believe the 16th needs to be ready, this team can definitely contend for a region title!

Wonder what the MUTT from Whitley thought about this performance?
