Pikeville and JC scrimmage on August 6th I believe.

I personally am not for picking up Johnson Central for a couple of reasons. The schedule is already plenty tough enough. Secondly you already play a veer oriented run first team in Belfry. No one in Single A runs that offense, so other than just wanting another physical test there is no benefit to Pikeville. It doesn’t prepare your defense for any offense you will see come Nov or December. The year Pikeville played and lost to a very talented Point Pleasant team was great. That game prepared them more for Beechwood than another other game that entire season. Which Pikeville ultimately lost by 1 point to. But if they were trying to fill that week, I’d be on the search for a very competitive game against offenses similar to Hazard or Raceland. The Wheelersburg game last year was an awesome pickup as well. Also the year they played Ridgeview and Trenton Adkins. That kid was the best player Pikeville played against all year. They then went on to put a running clock on every team throughout the playoffs and state title game. Those are the types of tests you look for.
