Breathitt record in late 80’s was:

1986; 9-1
1987; 8-2
1988; 6-5
1989; 12-1

Those teams weren’t struggling to win. The ‘86 and ‘87 teams were still under the district winner only playoff system.

The ‘88 team lost three games by a total of 5 points. Lost at Russell in the playoffs by a fluke double tipped pass completion as time was expiring.

The ‘89 team was the first Breathitt team to beat RUSSELL and they did it twice. Also, first team to ever beat Belfry at Breathitt.
