COACH’S COMMENTS
“… Closing out the regular season playing three really tough games will hopefully get us on the track we need to be on heading into post season play.”
“… Played a really good Ashland team last Friday very tough at home, then went to Pike Co. Central on Tuesday and had a wake up call, then bounced back with a win over Raceland at home last night. I’m very proud of this team and the fight they have shown all year. I’m looking forward to the next few weeks with them!”
