My freshman year at Raceland was one of the most underrated and un talked about team we’ve ever had. We was ranked # 1 in the state . We finished the season with a beat down of Pikeville at home and rolled into the playoffs. That week the team passed the flu around ….it was miserable! We got beat by Bellevue 10 -0 and we was 30 points better than them. Bellevue went on to the state championship game and got beat by Russellville 14-0. It’s a shame to see this one e proud program in the shape it’s in Jhst remember…..this can happen anywhere

Bellevue was one of Raceland’s road blocks to never making it deep in the playoffs before the 6 class system went into effect.  I remember being a water boy when they rolled into town in 1998 as a 4 seed and knocked us off in a heartbreaking overtime loss after winning the district.  Bellevue, Ludlow, and Dayton all used to be tough outs that were capable of beating anyone in our district regardless of how they were seeded.
