Recap from the Breathitt Co. Grid-O-Rama:

Good experience for all 3 teams that were involved: Prestonsburg, Bryan Station, Breathitt County.

Bryan Station is full of athletes and team speed. They seemed to be headed in the right direction under new coach Craig Yeast. Breathitt County was...well...Breathitt County. Good team speed, aggressiveness, and man to they like to hit. Typical Breathitt County team. Future matchup with Belfry may be a must-see.

Prestonsburg played without senior MLB/TE Adam Griffith, who was nursing a rib injury and was held out as a precaution, and ATH Grant Anderson, who was only recently cleared to resume playing after a summer baseball injury. In spite of this, this was a great experience for the young Blackcats who look to replace alot of leadership and experience from last year's team. QB Jaredd Jarrell was thrown into the fire immediately against Breathitt County, and was poised and played well. Pburg was obviously throwing the ball most of the time in order to get Jarrell as much game experience as possible. Defensively, Prestonsburg was very, very young and it showed, but they played remarkably well considering the talent of the opposing teams.

This was a great experience for all teams. Pburg won't face a team as physical as Breathitt very often, and won't face a team as loaded with athletes as Bryan Station is. Likewise, those 2 teams probably won't face a team that throws it as much as Prestonsburg.
