[MayfieldCardinal]

I think Pikeville was highly rated in one or several of those late 80's years, no idea if #1 in the state but I think I recall them being very very high. Of course so was the 10 Mayfield team, maybe #8th or #10. Really different era's and styles.
A better question might be how the 78 Mayfield team, which was voted team of the decade in the 70's, and 87 Pikeville would stack up since the play style was the same. I recall that Cards team being highly ranked state wide and the best Mayfield team if all time in my opinion.
