Highlands 49 Dixie Heights 6

Final from Edgewood.

Highlands/Dixie Heights Updates

It was not Ahfeld that hurdled a defender it was Roberts. Also looked like some lineman got banked up.

Highlands intercepted Dixie 4 times.

Buten continues to impress me. He has to get more touches.

I don't get why Highlands continues to go for two point conversions. Up 41-6 midway through 3rd Q and HHS went for 2 points. I guess practicing it.

To get running clock?

Yeah.....I don't think that was the reason. Like I said, guess it needs practice. IDK!

I'm sure BW was just trying something out. It was an opportunity to try something in a game environment. I would guess that is the way Dixie's HC perceived it. They put in the JV guys after that play.

I think it was to get the running clock.

36 point lead sets the running clock correct? If so, the kick would have made the spread 36.

Correct. If they kick the extra point, they still get the running clock.

This was way more competitive than I anticipated.

Dixie QB had an impressive arm, he also ran the ball well! Didn’t care for the shoes but you could spot him on the field. He dropped a few nice long passes in great spots. Dixie run and pass defense bad and it looked like HHS was working on a couple of things. After the half it was what I expected. Dixie played hard for first half.

Statistically speaking, QB Jeremy Adams is the majority of the offense for Dixie. They've got solid receivers in Channing Williams and Dylan Sears too. Adams and Sears are both juniors, so at least they will have those two returning for the offense next year.
