COACH’S COMMENTS
“… Very proud of our kids for starting the season 5-1 and 2-0 in the district. It was great to go to Belfry and not shoot the ball particularly well, but still pulled off a hard fought win.”
“…Our kids answered again at home last night vs Prestonsburg. Having 2 seeded district games before Christmas, you’ve got to figure some things out quick. Very proud of our boys for figuring out ways to win and be 2-0 in district play this early in the season!”
