Do parents in your area hold back their kids for sports.

My daughter has classmates with better beards than I do at 55 and they are in the 7th and 8th grades. One walked by us one day and I asked her if he played for the high school team and she said No Dad he just in the 8th grade. That is why our local middle school team has won the MS football championship for the first 2 years of it's inception and playing for a threepeat tomorrow in Lexington. See if you can check out Ihigh sports website and see if you can find the 2012 KY MS championship game. Our boys are a foot taller and 75 - 100 lbs heavier than the other team.

Prestonsburg? I remember playing that team in HS and that town took the sport way to seriously. We had to run for the buses after losing a JV game there.

In the end I don't think it matters, the schools I remember doing that had pretty mediocre Varsity teams. For example we smashed prestonsburg's varsity team a year later. Eventually talent starts to matter more.

No, but close. BELFRY. A couple of years ago the police escorted us out of the building and parking lot after a game (away game at another school) to keep the local fans from trying to hurt us. One of their fans actually grabbed one of the officials, because of a bad call, in a headlock and dragged him on the court and showed him where and how he made a bad call. Then when a parent came rushing out of the stands and grabbed one of our girls and her sister went rushing to her side, the sister got thrown out. It was a bad night.
