COACH’S COMMENTS
“… Obviously not happy with the outcome of the game, but proud of our team for their efforts. That’s a really good football team in Belfry.”
“… We didn’t play as well as we would have liked. Tough to win against those guys when you turn the ball over. The game kinda snowballed in the late second quarter. Proud of our guys for coming out in the second half and having some pride and continuing to play hard for each other.”
“… No time to dwell on the loss, another big game next week in Magoffin County. We will go back to work Monday.”
