Honestly I don't think this team will be worried about Belfry or any other team for that matter. This is a very young team with a new coach and they need to start by building up the program from little leauge up. Every team goes through lean years. I remember in the 90's Lawrence County was the top dog in the Mountains and we had talent everywhere and we stomped on everyone and that includes Belfry and yes those were Haywood lead teams. Belfry is on a great run but all things must come to an end. They have had a lot of talent the last few years but things like other teams in the same county building a good program can change things in a hurry aka Pikeville and if Pike Central can ever get things going it will make a difference also and then you have Shelby Valley with some good success. I also don't think Mingo Central is doing so bad right now and I think they got a stadium and facilities that are new and pound for pound as good as Belfry's. Heck look at Highlands, they have more wins and Championship's then Belfry and tradition and pride out the yahoo yet look how far they fell so quickly. Just goes to show how quick things like a Coaching change can shake things up at a program no matter how strong you think it is. Now is not the time for the Bulldogs to worry about competing with any strong program, but Lawrence County will be back and competitive in no time at all.

Your right when you beat us that was our down time but it's been a hack of a long run since then and we aren't slowing down anytime soon since then we just been reloading irateShoirateShoirateShoirateSho
