Make no mistake about it ,if Russell does win I would consider this an upset regardless of PLD’s record.

PLD played Madison central to a 34-24 game while Madison Central only lost 21-12 to a Really good Lexington Christian Academy team who comes from the same talent rich city as Dunbar.


Russell or the NEKY area in general does not have that kind of talent floating around. Not only that ,Russell is competing with 2 other schools in the county and Next to Russell you have Ashland. You also have some really good Ohio State Power football programs in Ohio across the river in Wheelersburg and Ironton.



Russell does good for being a small school in a non talent rich area with 2A numbers playing in 3A to reduce travel in the District but this game is a tall task.
