Cats opened up the season with a W at Carlisle. The young Wildcats really played with some intensity. Nicholas Co. played some really young guys but played hard. The Cats start the season 1-0, with Campbell County tomorrow night.

Does anyone know when and where the Camels will be scrimmaging this year?

Word on the street is that they are not having this event this year.

Wildcats played with a lot of heart. Hopefully they can keep the magic going on Thursday night. Keep it up PC!

I'd say that Pendleton Co. needs to win some games this year. Since their good run a few years ago, they've kind of been a pushover.

I don't see it. PC won the district last year after going through more adversity than any team should have to. The games that I attended the players seemed to really leave it all on the court every game for Coach Simms and his staff. Now, I don't know what the future brings but everything I've heard points towards a bright future for PC basketball.

Overall results that I heard was Pendleton winning by 15 strokes (321) to Mason's (336). Phoenix Ramsey paced the Cats with a 76. The PC golf program looks to be strong for the next few years! Congrats Cats.

I am not sure what everyone in Bracken County expects out of any coach. According to the winning percentages posted by AHSPanther23, there have only been two coaches with a winning percentage higher than 50% in 66 years. How many winning seasons has Bracken had in those 66 years.

Thanks for correcting me milfordflash. You are correct that Mac coaches baseball. Got in a hurry on that one. The big question to ask will be how will the new coach fit into the community. Coaches have been run out of small communities such as this when they are from out of town, because they just don't fit into the community according to those long time community citizens. As I read here, he will be run out soon.

I will stand up for 10th region fan as to the comparison he is trying to make. He is not comparing Persinger to Whitaker. He is comparing the fact that a 10th region coach has coached fast pitch and basketball and had success. In order to do this you must have great assistant coaches and that is what helps Whitaker.

As for Chad, he has shown he can develop a program. He has developed the fast pitch program incorporating middle and high school athletes and has developed basically a feeder system for his high school program. He would definitely be around to develop the basketball program from the elementary school up to the high school. Bracken needs someone who will develop the program for the future using what he has now. Chad would give the program some consistency and not use it as a stepping stone unlike others and I am sure Coach Breeze is using Bracken to begin his career, which happens all too often in Bracken Co. Guarantee Coach Breeze is here no longer than 3 years and he doesnt develop any kind of feeder program to help. Chad has proven he can win at the high school level and middle school level. He was a JV/Varsity assistant under Jon Wirth in the mid to late 90's in the girls program. My sources tell me Wirth was contacted Monday morning after Fite resigned about the job but turned it down. Wirth was also contacted by Kentucky Christian University about becoming their next head basketball coach. Perhaps if he took the Bracken job we wouldnt be having this discussion.

Any details on this one?

Harrison vs. Deming on Monday

Pendleton vs. Nicholas on Tuesday

Finals Wednesday

The Cats left four guys in scoring position in the 6th and 7th. Game was tied at 1 going into the last stanza. Harrison County pitcher had a no hitter going into the 6th; Patrick Johnson went all 7 for the Cats.

Its been impressive to watch these young guys come on.

Wow, big win for the young Wildcats.

Went to check this one out...a cold, windy game that saw Campbell's bats heat up in a hurry. They continue their roll from the weekend and seem to be playing well right now. From what I have heard Pendleton County has a VERY young squad. The outfield today for most of the game was 2 freshmen and an 8th grader. It will be interesting to see how the young squad responds as the year plays out.

Campbell has Calvary Christian tomorrow and Pendleton takes on Highlands.

05 Pendleton featured nine players that played in college:

Keaton Belcher- Belmont

Joey Verax- Transy

Mason O'Hara- Thomas More

Pat Elliott- Berea

Terry Davis- Union

Tyler Mains- North Greenville (SC)

Jon Elrod- Gerorgetown

Kane Belcher- Pikeville

Abe Crozier- Kentucky Christian

This team went 29-5, only lost 1 in region game, made the finals of the 5/3rd, and rolled through the 10th Region tourney before losing to PRP in overtime at the Sweet 16. They also beat eventual state champion South Laurel by 20+. Without a doubt a special group!!

03 Mason

04 Mason

84 Bourbon

99 Fleming

05 Pendleton

96 Harrison

88 Maysville

I'd say 03 Mason is the best of the bunch, but all of these teams were really, really good.

First off congrats to Montgomery County...they are a good basketball team. Good luck against Scott!

But I just want to give some love to the three Pendleton County seniors...Jimmy Booth, Richard Harden, and Derrick Myers. Those guys stuck it out and were rewarded with an amazing run that led to a district title. They really seemed to step up and lead a team that could have been torn apart with all the adversity they faced. Great job guys and you'll always be remembered for adding another year to the district title banner.

Deming starts to 2 seniors,1 junior and 2 freshman..not much of a difference. Deming got a ton of horrible calls on them. Deming is by the far the better team of the 2.

I'm not sure how you can say that when Pendleton beat them in both of their meetings this year.:confused:

Is the rumor that is going around true or not. Are PC boys that quit at the beginning of the season now playing ball? Fact or fiction?

Fiction.

Pendleton County took the JV District on their homecourt today over a game Deming team. Congrats to the Wildcats...it appears the future could be bright in Falmouth as this is a pretty young squad.

Keaton Belcher- Belmont

Great stroke for anyone, but definetly for a guy 6'9''

Shooting 42% from the 3 this year.

3 seniors, 1 junior, and the rest of their team is frosh/sophs. They will take thier lumps, but give these kids and the coaching staff time and they will be fine.

Go Buddy Biggs, Go Tomcats.....Ashland by 6.

This game is Saturday, PC plays Campbell at home on Friday.
