I don't think either team has played very good competition to this point. Pikeville has played a way down Prestonsburg team who only beat Sheldon Clark by 13 and a not as good as expected Letcher Central team. Paintsville has beat a way down Sheldon Clark team and a way down Frankfort team. I think this game will go a long way for showing both teams just how good they are. Neither have played a team who can expose any weakness they may have, but that all changes Friday night. People always get excited when their team starts on fire but you need to stay grounded and look at who you were playing. Teams tend to not look as good when they are playing a team who can punch back. If either team stands out in this game and wins comfortably then look out because then you probably have a front runner in the East.
