If there was one word I can use describe this game, it would be "wow''. Prestonsburg absolutely made a believer out of me and plenty of others that watched the game. The Blackcats are tough, hard-nosed, and lightning quick. First year player, Tyler Hall really impressed me tonight. Hall has really bulked up this past summer, and caught nearly every ball that came his way this evening. Quarterback, Michael Burchett really made great decisions tonight and was as aggressive as he should be. Joseph Jamerson, Josh Blackburn, Alex Griffith, Austin McKinney, Josh Craynon, and Alex Garner had great games as well. It was just an overall great team effort by the Blackcats.

Belfry didn't impress me as much as I thought they would, other than Thomas Varney. If Varney is going to have to carry the load like he did tonight at several positions, the Pirates may lose three or four games this season. Varney is a heck of an athlete, but I would like to see a better team effort out of the Pirates.

All in all, it was a great game to watch and it is going to be a heck of a year of high school football in the Bluegrass. Congrats to the Blakcats on the victory!
