Virgie Middle School and Dorton

Justice and Cody Varney from Dorton and Taylor Nesome and Ashley Hatfield from Virgie
The well is running dry up at Virgie and Dorton. Look for the maroon to start to beat them in Jr. high again starting next season. Last years 7th grade Panthers went undefeated. Pikeville has a bunch of good young talent coming. I'd be surprised if PHS doesn't get back towards the top of the 15th region and stay there for a while.

PS...if these 4 boys you mentioned are still playing grade school ball next year then they can drive to the games!!!!

Yea Yea, everybody always say Pikeville is going to win this year,but do they ever no..and pikeville couldnt get to top of the region

[cbls_75]

JCMS should be a force with Caldwell, Parker, and Green

[NYY10]

As long as Virgie and Dorton beats Pikeville in Grade School Ball then Valley is going to be better then Pikeville, Thats just the way I see it

When Dorton and Virgie combine, add Bryant and Pikeville can't touch them. :thumpsup:

Thats True and dont forget about Jackson for Valley lol

Thats True and dont forget about Jackson for Valley lol

Last time I checked, Valley doesnt have a middle school. This topic is about middle school teams and players, not Valley and Pikeville.

[The King]

As long as the new holdback rule stays in place Pikeville has a HUGE advantage over the county schools...

Last time I checked, Valley doesnt have a middle school. This topic is about middle school teams and players, not Valley and Pikeville. Dorton & Virgie are what you call feeder schools, and they are getting ready to feed Valley BIG TIME. I'd say LOOK OUT Pikeville. These boys are not Freshmen yet, so maybe they still fit the topic.

[BasketBallonlyfan]

How do you think Pikeville has a HUGE advantage, they have had the policy that the county put in place this year for years now. If you are held back, you dont play your second year in the same grade. Instead of saying that Pikeville will have a HUGE advantage, why not say the playing field just got leveled?

Did the boys graduate 8th grade? If they did, they are freshmen now...

[The King]

Sorry, but you are incorrect about that. Pikeville does allow players to play more than 1 year in the same grade...

[3 points]

Did the boys graduate 8th grade? If they did, they are freshmen now... not until they enter the 9th grade.

[NYY10]

Yea, they did

[BasketBallonlyfan]

not until they enter the 9th grade.
If they already went threw 8th grade graduation, they can not go back to the 8th grade again. Their report cards will say they are freshmen, so they are either freshmen or not attending school.

[NYY10]

No, once you become a Freshman you can go back to 8th grade, I had a friend do it, I dont no how tho,but he did

[BasketBallonlyfan]

so, if the ones you are talking about decide to go back to the 8th grade, let them, they would rather play against younger kids anyways. But if they did, I KNOW they wont be able to play as seniors. They would be 20 years old. What are they now, going to be 16 and freshmens?

[BasketBallonlyfan]

Sorry, but you are incorrect about that. Pikeville does allow players to play more than 1 year in the same grade...

Page 45 of the student handbook at Pikeville states:

"RETENTION OF JUNIOR HIGH ATHLETES
Any student participating in Junior High athletics and who has been retained will not be allowed to participate in athletic competition. Such student may practice with but not compete with an athletic squad."

So no, their are boys now that was not allowed to play last season due to a holdback situation. That is the school policy now as it has been for a few years. So the playing field has been leveled by the county school policy on holding back students.

The only one that has been held back is Ashley Hatfield from Virgie and he is 15

I didnt say anything at all about being hold backs. I just said that because they already graduated the 8th grade, if they decided to repeat it again, then they would be 20 when they graduate. If they are 15 now as soon to be freshmen. So unless they want to give up their senior year of playing, they shouldnt be considered middle school players now because their middle school career is over.

[The Guru]

All this when the thread clearly states "Top Middle School Players for '06-'07"!!!
Shew....some just can't let go of those 3-4 glory years of Middle School!

No joke, I guess they want to give up their senior year for another year of 8th grade stardom.

[IISnakE]

OMG..... y'all have "killed me"!

OMG..... y'all have "killed me"! :lmao: and they are serious.

[BasketBallonlyfan]

I just think it was pretty stupid to say that a 15 1/2 yr old would still be in middle school. Or going to repeat their 8th grade year and not be able to play thier senior year as middle school players.

[phs1986]

This kid LIVES in Phelps, was born and raised there up until a few years ago... his parents travel with him... I personally don't have a problem with it because the parents are doing what they feel is best for their child! Amen to anyone who wants the best for their kid!!!

[JD If U Please]

Teams

1. Pikeville
2. Virgie
3. Dorton
4. Elkhorn City
5. Belfry

Players- Don't know names but Pikeville had 3 super talented 7th graders, as did Virgie, Doron and Elkhorn.

[OnCeABobcat]

Betsy Layne will be good. They return everybody.

[Ridge Runner]

Paintsville should have a pretty good 8th grade squad (with a couple of 7th graders throwed in that mix). Seeing that they only had 2 losses last year at the 7th grade level. Both coming at the hands of Pikeville though. Pikeville should be really good this year. JCMS should have a pretty good group as well.

Yea and is really good in basketball and also football

[BasketBallonlyfan]

I just wonder if all those all star middle school players were still going to Valley. Didnt most of them say if Booher was still there they would go somewhere else? A few of them even said that their dads or old coaches didnt want them to play for him. So what is up with that?

[JD If U Please]

My list earlier was from Pike County, but from the EKY area from what I saw last year-



1- Johnson Central
2- Pikeville
3- SMS
4- Robinson Creek
5- Virgie
6- Warfield

8- Elkhorn City
9- Belfry
10- Paintsville

[phs1986]

[NYY10]

[Homer Simpson]

South Floyd's Brandon Marson will be a stand out player next year I look for him to put up some good numbers.

[gish_7]

I think you mean Chris Stumbo.

[phs1986]

I personally have experience watching him play baseball... he played on the same team as my child during his little league years.... He is a good kid.... and I love his parents to death..... they are good people!!!

You should have seen them play in Georgetown this week. 3 incoming freshman , one who played last year. They went 11-2. All started and played varsity A which is the best teams. These kids are for real . Why don't you lay off. They played 4 games a day and believe me it is no picnic. They played against kids 3 and 4 years older than them. And WON

I dont' think BBonlyfan was talking about those "youngins" talent... I think he/she was talking about them playing for a specific person/coach... NO doubt they have quite a bit of talent!! :thumpsup:

I think he dislikes someone in the crowd and uses any excuse to put them down.

So valley scrimage who...im confused

No one ever doubted their talent...ever. The point was that why didn't they just play for Booher instead of whining and crying all last year about not playing if he was the coach. Everyone knows that they are very, very good. However, I wouldn't say that they played against players 3 or 4 years older. That would make some of those opponents about 19 or 20 which would make them ineligable. BUT don't get me wrong, SV will be very, very good and if they went 11-2 at G-town, that's impressive!

That would make their opponents 18 or 19 which is how old a lot of Jrs, and Srs. are. When you hit the Lexington and Louisville teams you don't see very many 17 year old seniors. They are 15. Looks like they are playing for Booher, so why not drop it.

[BasketBallonlyfan]

I dont know why they are even being talked about in this tread. Unless they are going to be middle school players in the 06-07 season, they shouldnt be even mentioned in this thread. They say people talk about them being held back and everything, why cant they let one thread go on about middle school players and not throw their names in it. They are no longer middle school players so why are they even brought up in here?
