Prestonsburg's only real score came from a Hazard DB's deflected pass that was knocked into a receivers hands. Late in the game Hazards JV drove 70 yards on P-Burgs Varsity and was getting ready to score and coughed it up on the 15 yard line. The last +6 minutes P-Burg felt the need to keep their varsity in to make sure certain folks got their stats and TD's.

Different philosophies I guess but Hazard seems to look at games in those kind of situations (way ahead or way behind) as a time to develope the younger kids. That is why every year they seem to just keep reloading. The younger kids get plenty experience. They work just as hard as the varsity ever day in practice, they have parents and family sitting in the stands wanting to see their kids play too. If they cant play in situations like that when are they going to play? Everybody in the place knew exactly what the P-Burg coaching staff was doing late in the game.

P-Burb doubled their passing yards in the game on the last two drives againsts Hazard's freshman. But in a couple of years with the experience that those kids are getting they will be the ones holding teams to a touchdown a game.

Props to Ratliff, Fletcher, Higgins, Turner, and the other young ones for putting together a great drive against a good varsity defense. Just remember to protect the rock in the red zone next time and you will get a score.
