Thats because so many of us played at Raceland. Much like the other EKY/NEKY former players, very few of us stray from the areas we grew up with due to what coal has meant to our are in regaurds to jobs. That is changing a bit, sadly. Interestingly enough though, I think around 80% of Raceland's coaching staff went to, played for , and graduated from Raceland. Salmons, Grizzle, Fannin on the Varsity staff were all standout players. Even more are envolved in the JV-JRH. Only a handful of outsiders have come in over the years. Many think that could be a negative thing, due to so many "little johny is the best" or "come on man we went to school together, give timmy a shot at qb". But we have a GREAT staff who handles everything wonderfully. We really have a good thing going at Raceland. In academics and all atheletics.
