From my understanding that is a big part of it and more money sure does help. He has done a fabulous job at WV. I hope Cole Mosier gets a shot at this having been waiting in the wings for a while now.
I have seen both teams play and Beechwoods' defense is not what it was last year. The offense is hitting on all cylinders again but the difference is defense. I lean towards Mayfield with the home field advantage.
This team is no where near the team that played at Bishop Brossart. They were thin to start the year and the injury bug bit. They will struggle the rest of the year.
If Trimble goes to 1A that works but if they stay in 2A Beechwood would not be put in their district. The district currently has 6 teams(Walton, Trimble, Shawnee, Owen, Gallatin ,and Carroll) and Beechwood would make 7.
Depends on which WV team shows up. The injury depleted roster that has been there for most of the year or one that has it's full compliment back. After this week against Trimble County, and next week a bye week, I would image they have their players back.
