Probably did for intensity but it didn't last nearly as long.

I'll have to get Sportsman to jog the memory, but if I remember it right, back in the early 80's when Sports Illustrated mentioned JJK baseball, the Tribe had an absurdly long win streak. I can't remember the number, but it was/still is unmatched in any sport in this area. Clintwood's football run was awesome no doubt.
JJk won 4 consecutive state championships (hard to top that)

Didnt Pv win 3 straight twice?

I again have to say they is no disrespect intended on any part of this and I dont think anyone has, its just an awesome accomplishment to the work of the kids in both programs, Sorta like The Boston Celtics and the NY Yankees. We just have had the luxury of having 2 of the most storied programs in the state, 15 miles apart.

I still say its a push, to many variables to say one or the other, but a real topic with people who talk about the topic is nice.

They won 2 in a row 3 times.

I'm just reminicing a little bit. A book was even written about them. A play here and there and the Wave wins 6 State championships. But the winning streak will be hard to top around here. Getting back to the original topic, baseball is a more complex sport, so I go with Wise.

Kelly has more titles, Kelly has the chance to win more titles. It's a toss up, dont know how you could decide, PV plays one bad game and loses to many times a top 5 team in the state in the Region and there done. If Kelly does the same thing they still go to the state tournament. Mega made the point on split divisions, it works both ways. JJ Kelly is a D2 school, they can play D1 schools to get to state, PV cant. The 90's were the decade, people didn't realize what they were watching, PV was great, JJ Kelly was great, and Appy was great. I really dont think we'll see that again, I do however think we'll have two teams in Salem this year, PV and JI Burton. Sadly, I think both will lose again, PV getting beat worse than JI Burton. The sports are just different, it's much more difficult to make the playoffs in football and win state compared to other sports just due to the simple fact that it's one and done. It's the only high school sport in that format. If you want to talk about a pure LPD Dynast look at PV Track, God knows what their record looks like.

Clintwood won 3 state titles didn't they?

**imported_burrhead** · June 18th, 2007, 08:19 PM

Yep. 74,75,78. Lost to Madison Co. in 73. 76 could've been the best team, but Pennington beats them in overtime in Region D final.

Did Pennington ever win state? I remember they beat PV in the playoffs in '87, I think. Got beat the next week, though.

No, the best they ever did was runner-up. I believe that was the 76 team that Burrhead just mentioned. Coach Williams wrote a book called "Almost Glory" about it.

Only Cumberland team to win a football title was Jonesville. They won in the last year of the school's existence playing at Bullitt park.
