TOG, Brown was the last PH that flew out for the 3rd out

I was there the whole night, and honestly you can't even understand what these kids are chanting. I'm also confident that both administrations would quickly put an end to anything that was inappropriate. Congratulations to the Lady Cru. Abby Bessler and Rachel Fortner are very special players that played with a lot of heart and passion. NDA has at least four D1 recruits on their team (Thelen, Ogle, Schuler, Angel) and if she's not D1 bound yet, Meredith Klare. Simply put, Maureen Kaiser is a phenomenal coach. Until NDA decides to get a good head coach on board at all levels, they will never compete for the state title.

NDA is not sitting on a pile of money, nor do I think dennis12b indicated that they were. The NDA volleyball program fundraises all the money that they need to attend these tournaments. If they fall short, the parents pay for it. It's a sacrafice that parents are willing to make when sending their kids to private schools. The school does not even pay for the players and coaches travel or hotel rooms. The only tournament that the school funds is if they make it to the State Volleyball Tournament.

Tomlin's mom wasn't there.

Cov Cath #1 and Holy Cross #2

CCH JV 11 NewCath. 1 CCH JV 8 Letcher Co. 0 Nick Davis threw a no-hitter vs LC

Holy Cross senior players have their Baccalaureate Mass tonight.

NCC is a #1 seed because they won the small school conference, CCH is a #1 seed because they won the big school conference. They were placed on the top of each side of the bracket and the other 14 teams were selected randomly

CCH freshman handled Simon Kenton pretty handily early in the season and also, i believe Newport and Ludlow are not in this tournament consistantly. They join the tourney whenever they think their team can play with the big boys

The player was actually #28, Nick Pope.

One final word in A.J.'s defense. A.J. played his junior and senior year with a torn rotator cuff. He had shoulder surgery in July after playing his last season of summer ball. He played with pain because he loved the game and he loved being a Colonel. He played for the love of the game and not for the negative comments that some of you crazy people would get on here and post. Those who know A.J., know what kind of player A.J. was when he was healthy and at his best. He's also a great kid and was a great role model for the younger players that played below him, just like Quast and Severson were to him. Those are the things that matter. Remember those things about a player and not the errors that they made on the field. BTW, A.J. has graduated so Oldguy you can stop bashing him. I would tell you to find someone new to pick on, but I wouldn't wish that on anyone. Best of luck to the 2007 Covington Catholic Colonels! Always a very talented group of boys, but more importantly young men who year after year show class, repect, and a true "Spirit That Will Not Die" for their school.

CSHS81, it's just that when you ask questions like the above, it creates nothing but controversy. I'm sure there are girls that are on there that really shouldn't be, as well as girls that aren't on there that should be. The safest bet would be to just ask if anyone thinks a player may have been left off the list. That way the girls that did make it are not insulted.

I wouldn't say it was a poor display of volleyball. Kudos to the NDA coach for playing all fifteen of his players in the match. I didn't see St. Henry do that. Is that really what you want to see? NDA keep their starting rotation in and pound it in SK's face? I don't think so. I think it's better to keep the game respectable. Coach Ha showed a lot of class going to the bench.

Neither does Assumption. Looks like we're good to go. State finals should include two of these three teams. (Assumption/NDA/St. Henry)

It looks like Holy Cross will be heading to the Regionals. How exciting for the Indians. The Indians have a winning record of 20-12 after a long spell of losing seasons. H.C.'s new coaches Becky Verst and Kay Blank have sparked this team to be a competitior in N.KY. Best of Luck!
