There was a lot of talk about the Wright brothers or cousins ... something--Greg and Duane, I think--being the best individual players to come through the team to that point.<br /><br />Now I do think that all changed with the state championship and Jamie Jones in 1986.Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11218278987255792995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1697242053625998558.post-81320735650330767832013-11-15T08:01:12.004-05:002013-11-15T08:01:12.004-05:00Coach Edwards did an amazing job.Coach Edwards did an amazing job.Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11218278987255792995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1697242053625998558.post-84640807846950747232013-11-14T11:37:56.531-05:002013-11-14T11:37:56.531-05:00From 1977 to 1979, Mayfield went 35-3 and won two ...From 1977 to 1979, Mayfield went 35-3 and won two state championships.GoHeathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11122010542579322600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1697242053625998558.post-25789646266787885202013-11-14T11:36:00.438-05:002013-11-14T11:36:00.438-05:00By the way, in 42 seasons of varsity football, Hea...By the way, in 42 seasons of varsity football, Heath went 257-209-1.

And of course Heath won the state championship in 1986. But those teams were in Class A, not Class 2-A.

They were playing a 2-A schedule at a time when Kentucky only had four classes.
