jckicker

Sadly I have to agree here, Ron Blume last year was the closest in recent years, and Grimmy has some big shoes to fill, he is similar to Blume, but he has his work cut out, he knows it, and we all have great faith in him and know he will progress as summer comes and goes.... as for those rankings earlier, w/ JC in a "distant" 3rd, and ashland a favorite w/ LC in 2nd... it is way to early for me to make any predictions.. However, I will say that the district will be alot closer than some ppl think, should be a great bunch of games:thumb:

Good Game to both, a real thriller

Time remaining????

yea it's good, I was just there...HOW MUCH TIME LEFT????

how much time left?

Noooooo

Ahhhhhhhh

sounds like it may come down to the 2 point conversion or another FG for Tim

omg, wow, this is crazy

OMG, by the all-state kicker!?!

thanx, did Dougherty miss PAT?

score, sorry, just logged on?

Does anyone have a link for the all state team released today? WYMT reported Ron Blume as first team, Ian Holbrook second team and Blake Johnson third team. Congrats to these fine players and all who make the team--I'm just anxious to see the whole list!

Blume is clearly the best, I'm surprised there were few mentions of second place Dees..

Ashland Daily Independent combined A and AA in "small school" and AAA and AAAA in "large school" for their all area teams last year, will likely do so again.

Congrats to the Cards on a huge victory! Good luck to both teams in the regional final.

Lynn Camp leave wide receiver Lipps alone, LC coach notices it and calls time out just before the snap (Pugh did take it and complete the pass). Pugh is sacked by Anthony Walters on third down. Lipps' punt rolls to the LC 29, first down Wildcats after Paintsville's first punt of the game.

Chaffin takes this kickoff but is stopped at the 15. Chaffin carries to the 27 for a first down, next play another first to the 39, where Scalf fumbles but recovers himself on first down. Chaffin gains 2 on second down, 3rd and 9 play is from the shotgun. Scalf throws out of bounds. Punt on 4th and 9 from the LC 40. Chaffin's punt out of bounds at the 30, first down Tigers.

Pugh finishes the drive on a 16 yard TD run. 2 point conversion, Pugh tried to pass, saw nothing, ran it in. P 14 LC 0 just over 4:00 left in the first quarter.

LC takes over at the 20 after Lipps kick goes over Chaffin at the 15 an into the endzone, but has to punt from the 36. Chaffin's punt goes to the Paintsville 18 but they run out to the 29 on one play. A good start for the Tigers with 6:00 mins. left in the first.
