Pre Season Mountain Top 10

I think Hazard has a big season and makes a legit run in 1A.. I heard they got the transfers from Perry eligible. I think Jackson Deaton and Christ Partin were the names I heard. With that being said, that was Perry Central's 2 best players. It looks like it will be a long season on the gridiron for Perry.

I really liked what I saw from Hazard last season. They were more than competitive for one half at Corbin before the Hounds put it away. I knew that things were looking up in Hazard. Nice looking team. Talked to some of their fans, too. Nice folks.

Somerset and Prestonsburg will be good. Martin Co improved. Bell and Breathitt are set up for a run in the east for 3A. Rockcastle will be good. JC and Corbin should contend in 4A. Pulaski is a tough out for anyone in 5A. They will contend. South Laurel is a sleeper in 5A. Several with a chance to get to Kroger and win it but I would say none are the favorite to win it in their class if we are being real. Belfry probably has the best chance.

Martin co graduated a LOT last year. It’ll be difficult to be improved from last years team. Maybe they’ll surprise some folks.

Did Breathitt move up from 2A to 3A? Also, I would add that Lawrence County will contend in 3A in the East. They return every skill position and get some key players back that were injured last year. One kid will be contend for player of the year in the region.

Breathitt remains in 2A

That’s what I thought. Some people need to do research before making a post or reply I suggest.

none of the teams listed so far will win a state championship in 2025.

So the Eastern part of the state won’t produce a state championship in 25?

Williiams, Chicko, Johnson, or Fetherof? All four could be at or near the top this year. As good of a quartet as there is in the mountains.

Not what I said, what I said was very clear.

I typed a bit in that post and made a mistake. I think I already said as much earlier in the thread but beat that horse if it helps you in any way. I like Breathitt and LC this year. Not to win it in their respective classes but they both should be a tough out.

Clear to whom? I took your post to say none of the teams mentioned in this thread will win a state championship this season. Am I missing something?

none of the teams in this thread and So the Eastern part of the state won’t produce a state championship in 25? are two totally different statements. I didnt make one of them, very clear.

It may be true that none of them will produce a state championship, but I think it is always interesting to see what happens because there are always upsets and surprises. Who could be your surprises for this year?
