Proud of the Blackcats. They fought hard tonight and the defense played a great football game. Our coaches put together a great game plan defensively and the boys made plays on that side of the ball all night. Offensively, Pburg got a heckuva performance out of Kain Patton. Kid ran the ball like a madman tonight. Just couldn’t really get much else going outside of him. Not having a healthy Dalton Elliott did hurt. I hate it for him, because he tried like hell to go out there and play through it. Missed his presence on defense as well.

Overall, I’m very happy with tonight’s performance and how this season went. I’m excited about the future as well. I think Prestonsburg can have one of the best defenses in the mountains next season. Just need to thicken up. A full off season for this bunch returning is crucial. They have the heart and abilities, just lacked size and strength in a lot of areas.

Congrats to Somerset. Y’all were big and had some dudes and capitalized when you had to. Good luck at Owensboro Catholic next week.

Hate to lose Dalton Elliott and Alex Harris. Both have been fantastic representatives of Blackcat football, the school, and our community. Very proud of them and all they’ve accomplished during their time. They’ve laid the foundation for future success with the guys behind them. Proud also of Cade Nairn and David Scott. Cade is a great young man that never complains. Same can be said for David. He wasn’t eligible until the Martin Co game this year, which is where he transferred from. He got to play in that game and unfortunately suffered a knee injury in practice the following week and had surgery yesterday and couldn’t be there tonight.

Proud to be a Blackcat!
