I just have a few thoughts I need to express while I try not to think about what our kids and little town is going through right now.
First of all I just want to say thanks to the Pikeville community for being great host. You have a nice stadium and very respectful fans. I thought both teams gave just about all they could give. Both teams had to play under the same conditions so I wont dwell on the heat. We just made way to many mistakes on defense. Good teams will do that to you!
Just a thought about out Quarterbacks dad. Him and his wife I doubt ever missed a game and very few practices. His wife you could see her out walking the track during practice and Mr Elkins would be looking on watching practice. You could see them making eye contact all the time. So you know this was a tight family. They worked so hard for the team. Great athletic boosters. He will be missed by not only the community and family. But it will all be be impossible to replace his unending efforts of helping make this school a better place for all the kids.
It's really ironic that if what I read today is right. Mr Elkins was born in Pikeville. And he died doing what he I believe loved doing. And that is setting in the stands with his wife and friends watching his son play sports. And where his life ended. Pikeville!!

Wait a minute...Morgan Elkins? Did he used to cut hair? If so, YES, he was born in Pikeville and used to cut my hair as a kid. I believe him and his brother also taught the driver's license tests for the KSP?
