Thirty-five years after they beat Paintsville 14-6 for the Class A state championship, the Rockets and Tigers will do it again in 2020. This time in Marion.

Crittenden County football coach Sean Thompson announced the complete fall football schedule Saturday, which includes the team CCHS beat in Louisville in 1985 for the state title. 

Paintsville lost 48-0 last season in the state title game to Pikeville. 

The Tigers will come to Crittenden County the second week of the 2020 season. 

Because of COVID-19, the schedule has recently changed as Crittenden lost its first three game with the start of season being pushed to Sept. 11. That left two open dates to fill and coach Thompson has loaded those Fridays up with Paintsville and Paducah Tilghman.
