Powell County opens up with Montgomery County on Monday. Not sure about the Indians, although I do know they have one heck of a coach in Gene Combs. I'm sure he'll have his players ready. It should be a good first game for both teams, I know both are biting at the bit to hit the diamond.

SV opens with Belfry - but the game has been moved to BHS b/c SV's field is in no shape to play! I hear they are getting it "re-covered" however - that is once the BOE gets there to do it! :-) I've seen the field, and its a big mud bog between first and second. The new home opener for the Wildcats is Thursday, 3/27 against Matewan. As for the Belfry game, SV stands a good chance if they can put some offense together. Defense looked great in their 1-0 loss to Letcher Central (scrimmage), but no runs scored is still no runs scored. I'm sure that Coach Slone will most likely start Varney - he pitched 4 2/3 innings of shut-out ball against LCC, and the 1 run given up was unearned.

Gene Combs is one of the premier coaches in the state. He can motivate a slug if you give it a bat. He is definetly a top 5 pick for best coaches in the state of Kentucky.

They should definetly have a good winning streak going into spring break though. Hopefully they play some tall cotton down south.

I know what you mean! That first month when it only gets to be at about 70, and especially when you go down south for spring break. That is always great baseball atmosphere.

Workers from the Pike Co. BOE are hard at work at SV getting the field in shape. So far, so good - it looks GREAT!
