 The Mingo Central minors look to make another run in the West Virginia State High School playoffs as we head across the Tug Fork River to go in the huddle. And the huddle is brought to you by A-plus Rental. Mingo Central is coming off their most successful season in program history after advancing to the state semifinals in class AA action. Now that they have some experience and depth under their belts, the minors believe this is their year. Well, we've been working on trying to get better. That's our main thing every year and we have got better. Really the biggest thing we've been working on is our effort, you know, all the running, going through the drills, over and over and over and over again, getting it right. We're not going to let y'all down this year and we started this four years ago and it really is our year. We plan on going all the way. Last year we got beaten to playoffs and honestly I think the team that beat us they weren't more talented than us. They just gave 100% effort every play and that's really what we're focusing on this year. Every play, every rip in practice, we're taking it one at a time, going as hard as we can trying to push ourselves to go over the top. The minors not only take pride in winning, they take pride in where they came from and it all begins with the community. My whole family is coal miners. You know, I grew up with coal miners, father, grandfather, great grandfather, and you know, it's like we're representing them. So it's like you'd be coming up here to represent West Virginia's coal miners. No, these guys are up here working hard. We're doing all we can do to make sure we have a good football team here because we're just worried about these kids up here and you know, everybody come to the ball game and we give them something good to watch. You know, we're up here putting in work for each and every one of y'all at home come up here to support the miners. You know, our faith in God and everything. It's strong, so watch out for mingos here. Here's a peek at Mingo Central's schedule. The miners will kick off the 2016 season on the road to Wyoming East on August 26th with their first home game set for September 2nd as they take on the Tulsa Rebels. Wayne and Chapmanville also highlight the miners' schedule.
