Look, I'm not a Valley homer who thinks they're going to tear the world up this year. I see them finishing either 2nd or 3rd in district, depending on if they beat Bath County. However, I don't see how you can say they have a weak non-district schedule. Look at the list:
- Belfry
- Breathitt
- Knox Cent.
- Appalachia
- Pike Cent.
- East Ridge
- Knott Cent.

The top 4 teams are very solid, with Belfry and Breathitt being perennial powerhouses. Of the 3 weaker opponents, I think most would agree with Valley keeping games with PC and ER in order to preserve the county rivalries. So that leaves Knott as really the only weak team that they could've left off the schedule in favor of somebody stronger. In my opinion, the coaches actually scheduled a little too aggressively.

They have three tough games i will give them that but saying that Knox is a tough game is a little far fetch. Knox last season barely beat Perry Co. who we all know is a very weak and not so talented team. They have 5 games who are against sub par programs.
