Considering that the Blue Goose floor is rubber, why would you want to try to build a program on such a floor? Just build a new practice facility next to the high school like there has been talk about for 5+ years and let it be done with.

The new practice facility at the high school is only in your dreams. They have been talking about that for 10 years and still no digging!! The Goose does have a rubber floor but it is twice as big as the elementary gym. No one said they would "build" the basketball program at the Blue Goose, but it is about time that it can be used for basketball. This is a great move. It is already being rentivated as we speak.....the floor is being painted, new goals are being put up, and new scoreboards will be there shortly. It still won't be a thing of beauty but the improvements will make it a good practice facility. Cheerleading is losing some luster at PHS. The girls are starting to drop off at the HS level. The parents are also frustrated with the expense of cheering now. I think you will see Pikeville Cheerleading drop back to normal like the rest of this area before long. Girls are just getting burned out with it!!
