The ’24, 1A, Preseason Top-Five (5) @PikevilleHSFB, @lexsayrefb, @estes_coach, @Cville_Ath, @barstoolmboro, @racelandramsfb, @AlPopsFootball, @minguabeefjerky, @840WHAS
Can Pikeville make it four in a row and five in six years or will Sayre break through?. Trying to predict where a team will finish, preseason, is often an act of futility.
