This has been months in the making. A lot of these kids are great friends and both sides have licked their chops wanting this game. Pikeville has been playing as well as anybody in KY. Paintsville beat them with Trimble getting 1 touch+Phelps hurt the 2nd quarter. Both teams have opened up the offense. 2 great small town communities full of pride for their programs. Could arguably be the best 1A matchup ever in the mountains heck any class for that matter! Tough to predict. Pikeville on fire but sometimes winning so big hurts you when you get in a tight pressure packed game. That's why I think that Raceland game was so important for Paintsville. Hoping both teams come into the game healthy and leave healthy. 2 great programs w mutual respect, great players, coaches and fan bases! This is going to be a fun Thanksgiving!
