In response to Wildcat1 the 7th grade game with Boyd Co was cancelled because of weather. It was at Ashland in the Verity Bowl which we had no control as did you. Where do you get we refused to play you????? Guess we are a 3 because we are 9-1 and we've lost one game by 2 points and had 3 starters out that game. Oh I hope we do play now. Good luck to both teams and good luck getting to the region finals. It would be great if us, greenup, boyd, or Fleming could win it and knock off the power teams that are in our bracket!

There were attempts made to reschedule the game, but it was never rescheduled. The 8th grade game should have been finished, and the 7th grade game should have been played.

With the game cancelled, and Martin County not fielding a 7th grade team, Boyd County was left to gain enough points in 8 games to overcome other 7th grade teams with 10. Conference Championship would have helped, but now that game is scheduled for the night of the play in game of the playoffs.

As neighboring schools, there should never be a season where the two don't play. It's a nice backyard rivalry between two schools of similar size. It's not the first time the two schools have had games interrupted by lightning, either. They had to finish a game 3-4 years ago that was postponed for lightning.

The powers that be, could have for whatever reason, scheduled East and Boyd as a play in game. That would have made a little more sense. Just my opinion.
