I love talking about football history in Pike County. I actually feel relevant doing it.

I'm an old Elkhorn City guy, and some of the older posters on here may remember when we were very good at football. Looking back at history, we had a very strong program until we closed our doors for good. Some years we were the best team in the county, and some years we were the worst team in the county. It would be impossible to type all the memories that I have about Cougar Football.

Some years we played the best of the best, and beat them. Not talking about just Belfry or Pikeville, but we have played teams like Henry Clay...On the road...And won. It was a blast playing at such a small winning school.

Teams in Pike County that didn't have football; Dorton, Feds Creek, Millard, and Hellier.

Mullins, Johns Creek, Belfry, Phelps, Pikeville, Elkhorn City, and Virgie were the only schools that had football.
