NCC overshadowed?

[Whackem'n'Stackem']

Why doesn't anyone including the media pay any attention to this program who seemingly wins state just about every year Highlands wins? I suppose it doesn't help to be in the shadow of the Highlands Bluebirds simply because of their record breaking year.

I do believe that Newport Central Catholic deserves it's share of congratulations and media attention, but I think this is a bit of a stretch.

I saw several reports about NCC on the news, both before and after they won. I don't think they've been overshadowed at all.

First, they've only won titles in the same year twice - 2010 and 2012.

 

Second, Highlands has won 22 titles stretching from 1960-2012, including at least three in every decade. Newport Central Catholic has won five titles, with four coming in the last eight years.

 

Third, reading BGP it is obvious that there is plenty of support for both schools and much of northern Campbell County is very happy that both the Birds and Breds are state champions.

Just looked at the game threads and the HHS thread has only 3 more post than the NCC thread. I think the BGP family gives plenty props when there is a thread to post in. .

I said in week 2 when they lost to McNick that they would win 2A. I am not a fan of NCC since my team loses players to them every year but I respect them!

Well it's tough to get recognition when you're the 3rd best team in a small county! :sssh:

What are you talking about? I did a big feature on Josh Cain leading up to the state final, did a feature lead to a notebook on Randy Borchers and Eviston being high school teammates and Borchers driving him to school everday and both playing for Coach Schneider, I wrote 25 inches on the championship game and write consistently about NewCath. I rarely take exception with stuff on here, because opinions are opinions, but either you aren't paying attention or you are jaded. I

I agree. I think that on BGP, there are more Highlands football fans who are frequent posters than NCC football fans, so it may appear to be overshadowing. One way to change that is to get your people on here and start posting.

He isn't paying attention Richard and just trying to get some chatter going. It's what happens when you sit in a deer stand too long.

 

I thought NCC got great coverage and it was nice to read about the Eviston/Borchers connection.
