The mountains of Eastern Kentucky just produced 3 State Champions and 2 Runner-ups on championship weekend 2019. 1A Pikeville, 3A Belfry, and 4A Johnson Central all brought gold trophies back East while 1A Paintsville and 3A Bell County fell a little short and ended up coming home with second place hardware.

It's being talked about all over social media and on here as well about the mountains dominance this weekend. My question to you guys is, what do you think? Is this a bit of a surprise? Was this something expected? Is there a reason this is happening? What's your thoughts.

Also, is Somerset regarded as a "mountain team"? I've heard it both ways so I don't know. That's why I didn't include them. Wanted your guys opinion on whether their considered a mountain team or not. But if they are, that would be 4 State Champions out of 6 classes coming home to the hills of Eastern Kentucky. Remarkably to say the least.

With all the attention and talk being made about this very subject just thought it would make a great discussion thread.Thoughts?
