Southern (Southwestern Pulaski) goes to Rockcastle Co. to open their middle school season tomorrow night.

Wayne Co. 6th, 7th, and 8th swept Pulaski Co. (Northern) last week to start the season.

I have heard that Shannon Fraley (Sweet Sixteen MVP) is coaching Northern this year.

Shultz is one of the best coaches in the state. The energy he brings will have the Warriors ready. They may only go .500 but they will pull some upsets. Could they sneak up on Wayne or McCreay in the district? It is always possible with Shultz at the helm. I have heard rumors that some of the 8th graders may get looks this year.

I have heard that Lincoln Co. has a pretty good 7th grade team.

I have to agree. These 7th grade teams have to be 2 of the best in the state. I wouldn't be surprised if they are in the finals of the state tournament in Feb. I may have to make my way to London for this game.

Does any school have a schedule yet? If so, when are the dates of good games.

Southern Middle (Southwestern) 8th should be the best team in southern KY.

Wayne Co. should have a decent 6th grade team this year although Somerset 6th (Meece)will be the team to beat in the south.

I am glad to see there will be a 6th grade state tournament this year.

When does Meece, South Laurel, Whitley Co. start there season and who do they play?

I am looking forward to the game. Should be the game of the week in southern Kentucky. I have the choice of driving to Lincoln Co. to watch the Warriors, or driving to Somerset to watch the Jumpers or Maroons. The Jumpers should win with a running clock so that game is out. I watched the warriors beat S. Laurel last weekend, so it is time to watch the much improved Maroons. I have heard good things about Muse, Hines, and the rest of the young Maroons. Good luck to all 3 local teams.

Corbin by 4 TDs.

I would love to see the Warriors pull the upset! Lincoln wins by a touchdown.

There are two games in Somerset this Friday. Somerset vs Garrard Co. and Pulaski Co. vs Mercer Co. Which will be the better game? My guess is Somerset wins this game with a running clock therefore I will watch the Pulaski game. Good luck Jumpers. I will come watch you when the games get a little more challenging (Corbin).
