Was hoping this game would live up to the hype & expectation surrounding it, and boy did it.

Said from the get go that Pburg would have a shot if they could contain the Mccutcheon kid, they did that early on, but he is a great player, and the great ones figure it out, and he got his as the game went on.

If I'm not mistaking, Pburg didn't even attempt an official pass, one incompletion on a 2 point conversion. Had 64 rushes I think it was, you could tell that BL D-line was wore down and Pburg took advantage. Harris & Elliott literally willed them, Elliott had some bruiser type runs late in the game when he is more of a finesse type player. Trenches was definitely won by the Blackcats, it was so back and forth in the 2nd half, but the defense bent but didn't break, they made some big time stops when they needed to. Penalties really killed BL, they had some bad ones like they did in the Floyd Central game.

Vibes are definitely high in Prestonsburg, and like I've said before it's always fun to see them having success, it's been a long time since they have, and they have the right coaches and continuing to establish a culture that will keep it going for years to come. Tough test coming up against a solid Martin Co team with a lot riding on it, district and maybe even a home playoff game or 2? Should be another fun one Friday night.

But congrats to Prestonsburg on a huge W.
