Estill returns alot more than those two. Although those are two good ones though. Estill's major ? will be their lack of depth. Breathitt should be the usual one to beat in the dist. and Harlan ought to be pretty good and let's not forget about Fleming, they just had an off year last year. Look for Peterson and crew to have the Panters back in the mix next year. Powell ought to be much better also. This district is shaping up to be a pretty good one for next year.

Back to the 2003 year when Estill was 8-3 only lost 6 players and the next year were 3-7. Don't see that happening next year. Should be 9-1, Breathitt being the only loss. Depending on Estill's defense, they could be better than that. They gave up 23 points a game in 07, that is not good to say the least, but they were able to control the clock and beat who they were supposed to beat except for Pineville. Harlan Co. is not going to be a threat for them yet, I look for Fleming to be much better, they were mainly Sophomores and Freshmen. You don't need to mention Powell, they will not be in the mix, read their threads, it is one drama after another and another year of 8 or 9 wins. Powell will be the same, 3-4 wins.
