First of I all just want to congratulate a wonderful Belfry team and fan base. You guys are great! Your kids showed a lot of heart and determination last night. I believe this game was won in the trenches on both sides of the ball. With Belfry being so young there and the way they dominated the line of scrimmage is scary. 3A better watch out!

As for us, we will get better. This game hurts to lose but it will only make us better. We have 3 more brutal games to go in this 4 game gauntlet. Our kids have to regroup and I believe our wonderful coaching staff will make that happen. I was so proud of all the Harlan Countians that came out last night. Just goes to show you that this county loves their football and wants to support our young men.

Next week will be no easy task either. This will be a totally different Knox Central team that came in here during the grid a couple of weeks ago. We need to all be back at Coal Miners' Memorial Stadium next Friday night and cheer on our Bears!

Good luck to Belfry and I really believe you all will get Central this year and I hope we get to join you in BG come December.
