Good job Prestonsburg.

Paintsville, I kept waiting on you to wake up, but I guess all the fans yelling couldn't rouse you out of it.

Paintsville allowed 12 lay ups and turned the ball over over 20 times.

I was afraid Paintsville wouldn't play good. Some of our fans were griping about the refs, but hell, if we come out and play, we would have won this game. The refs will be bad for both teams every game, that's a given. So, no one can blame the refs.

Prestonsburg did a good job of being patient against the zone at the beginning of the game. They worked it around until they got wide open 3's or lay ups. Lay ups, against a zone. Never should happen, but Paintsville allowed it. Prestonsburg made 3 wide open 3's in the first quarter.

Paintsville has 6 days to get over sickness and to get over this game and get ready for the All A State. They WILL face better competition down there. But, if they go down there and play good, they CAN win a couple of games.
