2024 Saint Xavier Tigers

He has the potential to be a really good one at the QB position for the Tigers. -

Way Too Early Preseason Rankings for 24-25
LongTimeReader replied to ACfan4's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
Have heard there are some good players in their incoming 9th grade class too. -
Possibly. I’m also pretty sure St. X and Trinity would be ok if that happened.

2025-2026 Football Realignment
LongTimeReader replied to theguru's topic in KY Football (High School)
Looks like there is one district with three teams... interesting. -
Jeffersontown 62 Trinity 58
LongTimeReader replied to Tigerpride94's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
Bit of a shocker. Saw Jtown earlier this year against St. X and they had two guys that really stood out tome but wouldn’t think they would be able to have enough depth to knock of Trinity. -
St. Xavier 80 Oldham County 76
LongTimeReader replied to LouHSJunkie's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
Tigers made that an interesting last 8 - 10 seconds. Two tough wins for the Tigers in back to back days -
Saint Xavier 80 Male 77
LongTimeReader replied to Tigerpride94's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
When X got up by 15 I thought they were good shape but then Male went on 14-0 run. Thought Male would find a way especially how Edelen started to get hot during that stretch. Good tough win for the Tigers! -
As stated earlier, while it's not your typical Ballard team it's not a team you want to see come tournament time. It's still says Ballard across their chest and they're going to play hard.

Saint Xavier 81 Collins 72

Watched some of the game on the YouTube channel. Seemed a bit sloppy by the Tigers early but as shots started to fall defensive intensity started to pick up, which led to faster paced game and played into the Tigers favor. Big game this Friday for St. X as DeSales heads to Poplar Level Rd. -
2024 Saint Xavier Tigers

One of the top contenders to be the starting QBs next year. The other is a very good lacrosse player. -
Saint Xavier 84 Ballard 79
LongTimeReader replied to Tigerpride94's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
Fun, fast paced game. Ballard’s PG was money the first 3 quarters and then cooled down in the 4th. The Tigers kept it close it early but every time they had a chance to take the lead it felt like they would turn it over and Ballard would extend the lead. 4th quarter was fun and the Tigers were able to put consecutive stops together and then convert those stops into points. I didn’t know what to expect out of Ballard based of their record but they’re better than their record would indicate. They’re not high level Ballard but they’re definitely good enough to put a run together and win the region…pretty much like every 7th region team. -
2024 Saint Xavier Tigers

I think there is some added pressure on Poplar Level Rd this season. I think it’s two fold…to prove last year was just an off season after seasons 2021 and 2022 seasons in which it looked like the program was turning the corner talent wise and what the future looks to have in store for rival Trinity. There are some very talented players on this year’s team and for whatever reason just didn’t show consistently last year. Offensively, there is solid depth at the WR position, the loss of Cam Holloway isn’t ideal but there are some players ready to take those reps. Immanuel Gray is a solid RB, but there isn’t much depth at that position. I would be surprised if Mason Trimble isn’t the starter at the beginning of the year and he is in the mold of Jack Savoring but probably a better passer. The OL is thin so that will be the biggest question mark ending in the spring and summer for the Tigers. The defense last year was not a typical defense for St. X. A lot of young and inexperienced players last year and it just never seemed to click week to week. The experience last year was at the line of scrimmage but it was undersized experience at the DL position, that should be the opposite this year. They will be bigger at the line of scrimmage. The two starting inside linebackers are returning as they’ll both be juniors. James Burnett may be one of the best athletes in the city and he’s just figuring out what it takes to play football at a high level. The Sam Crum leaves a hole in the secondary that will need to be filled. I know the talk is about other schools right now, and the way St. X finished their season last year it should be, but don’t expect this group to role over and not fight for their respect. By all accounts it sounds like this offseason is night day compared to this time last year. We’ll see how that translate.
