Does anyone know a reason for the back out?

PepRock01, Don't tell that to the webmaster at the Trinity website. I cannot find it today, but once during the 2011 season, when I was reading the rather lengthy pregame notes, which includes all the previous result, etc, I noticed that have proclaimed themselves in the masthead as "The Kentucky Powerhouse." No humility there. I doubt that you will find anything like that at any other school website in the Commonwealth.

 

You'd be wrong. St. X boasts something like "Tradition Unequaled". Schools that have done things have the right to post and boast (IMO).

Was there ever an actual signed contract between T and Marist, or was it a verbal agreement? Also, did Marist provide a reason for backing out?

Yes and Trinity will receive the buyout $. I have not heard any "official" reason. I am certain they came up with a better plan...like playing somebody at home in 2013. They did advertise on the KHSAA open date forum.

Actually, this statement appears on a large sign at Trinity's stadium.

 

Never been there, but plan to be there Sept 13 to cheer on my Cardinals. I'll check it out.

So, how many games does Trinity have scheduled at this time?

It's crazy, they just can't seem to find an open week where both teams are available. So they settle for the preseason game.

 

Just sayin!

The Marist Redhawks have a road game at the Moline Sr High Maroons on October 25. Cheaper to travel a lot closer to home and pay the buyout than to come to Louisville. It was always a one and done deal. Marist has their 2014 schedule set and published online at their website. The headache of scheduling games for Trinity now falls on the shoulders of Rob Saxton, the AD in waiting. He takes over for Dennis Lampley next June according to the school president.

August 16 at Trinity.

For what it's worth, Madison Southern is open September 20 and Sheldon Clark is open October 25. I'm guessing neither of these teams would want to play Trinity, though!

As a fan, I hope Trinity makes it "worth their while" to come to Louisville and then visit there next season at no cost to the home team.
