I think more tournaments during the regular season that allows eastern ky kids to play each other. This is being done, but we need to do it more. Consolidation of our middle school Orange is the next big step. It has to be done in order for us to "raise the level of play in our program". I think a wise coach quoted those words somewhere.

You can play each other a thousand times but if most of the teams are bad and are not getting better it isn't going to help. I think Letcher Central, Allen Central, Betsy Layne, South Floyd, and Belfry are headed in the right direction but what about the other schools. In my opinion, the only reason most schools in the 14th region even has volleyball is to keep Title 9 off of their back.
