[PHS Coach]

didn't know i was in a popularity contest. i'm just simply stating that people are lining up to put p-burg's coach at the top. he has had 2 years. if pikeville's coach loses in the 1st round does he not get torn to pieces on here? same with most other coaches. all i'm saying is before everyone starts saying how great he is, let him accomplish something first. getting to the region if you are p-burg's baseball coach is not an accomplishment.

congrats to the 57th runner-up on the win. now jchs continue it tonight.

Prestonsburg had the hardest schedule in the region this season. Beating Boyle, Hazard and Letcher twice, were in the game with a chance to win agains Trinity, Calloway Co., Harlan Co., Lexington Christian Academy and Ashland. Also played Lafeyette, Mercer, Scott Co., Christian Academy of Louisville and Somerset. And still finished the season with a 24-15 record. In the 2011 season he finished 18-11 with only 17 players.

So lets see what he has done in only 2 seasons.

2 All "A" 15th region titles.
2 All "A" sectional titles.
2 All "A" state elite 8 apperances.
2 District titles.
2 Conference titles.

Sounds like a pretty good resume to me!

The best team doesn't always win. That's why the games are played on the field. Paintsville played a great game as did Prestonsburg. It wasn't in the cards for the Cats and Paintsville deserved the win. Just part of game.

Congrats Tigers on a hard fault victory and good luck the rest of the way.
