Phelps getting some attention also, I think they are 8 and 0.

Yeah they are 8-0. The record looks good, but only having played 2 weak region teams and weak out-of-state opponents does not tell you how good they are yet. I think they know what kind of team they are but I'm not exactly sure yet. They are traveling to Betsy Layne tonight, their first true test of the season. This game should give everyone an idea of how good they can be.

11 point loss for Phelps tonight and the tests continue against Belfry and East Ridge before hitting Betsy Layne again. The rest of their schedule will be some competition with the exception of the WV teams.

Looks pretty good to me.

A very important game tomorrow involving Shelby Valley after their return from Fla. Will give everyone an indication of how they will actually do in the region. Also we will be able to hear how Elisha Justice's shoulder is doing?

Phelps is 8-1 now. They lost to Betsy Layne.

Corbin should be ahead of Shelby Valley after they beat Lex. Cath.

Until Valley loses to an in-state school, they don't move.

This isn't a comment, it's a question........Elliott is ranked number 1 in both the CJ and LHL......How long has it been since an Eastern Ky school has had this honor???? I'm gonna guess Clay Co. had it in the late eighties.......Can anyone confirm or deny this? Either way, its good to see schools in this area get props!

That's a good question, but I'd say that South Laurel has had it most recently and Paintsville may have had it during the '96 season.

I'm sorry but JBS should not be in here, there a good efficient team but not top 20 in eastern kentucky.

Big changes on the way in the EKY Top 20.
