Title Town

[Toothpick]

Could title town be coming to Mayfield??? The rural extreme WKY County is home to 2 football playing high schools and both will be playing for state titles this weekend. No surprise the Cardinals are there, they have never missed a title game appearance since the KHSAA agreed to move the games to BG for the Cardinal faithful to cut down on their drive and Mayfield in turn agreed to always make an appearance. The only thing the KHSAA ask in return was that every once in a while let someone else win one and try and help Graves. Well The Cards have done just that lending a player to the Eagles to help QB them to the title game.

 

Besides Danville and Boyle, has this feat been done outside the metro areas where there are a large number of HSchools?

Uh, no. Highlands and NewCath are 2 miles apart. I'd say that outside of Louisville, they lay claim.

 

Nice story about Graves, but I can't give it to Mayfield where all of the athletes go to one of two schools.

So you are saying Newport is title town?

Fort Thomas, a ton of NewCath players come from there as well, as much as I don't like saying it.

[WHO'S NEXT?]

I also have question, started wondering this after the Graves win at BG. Has there ever been a player to throw a touchdown pass for 2 different schools in a championship game?

 

Graves will need to avoid "the deer in the headlights" scenario which happens to most 1st timers. With Reed playing in multiple championships, much of that will fall on his shoulders, before and during the game.

 

County fans may have huge support if the city folks show up a night early to catch the 5A game. With BG in your region, this may be a rare opportunity to make Mayfield Title Town, Ky USA.

Danville/Boyle is officially Title Town.

 

I don't necessarily buy Mayfield/Graves as a "rural" area..but for the sake of the OP this would be the first time outside of Danville/Boyle that a non-metro County would have two Champions.

 

Highlands/NewCath is certainly in a metro area...as is anyone from Jefferson County

 

Pike County gave it a good go in 1979 when both Belfry and Pikeville were State Runner-Ups.

 

With all that said, I think Pulaski is the favorite in 5A.

and haters will hate, you have no idea but that's okay with me

Really nice accomplishment if they can pull it off.

I would think that there hasn't. That's pretty awesome.

[WHO'S NEXT?]

So having several schools in one county, but not the same city, is more impressive than the only 2 schools in the county and same city?

[Cru Bat Boy]

Ft. Mitchell/Park Hills area has 17 state titles since 1984. Some pretty decent teams through that part of Kenton County

[Toothpick]

2 High schools both playing for titles

vs 7 football playing schools

 

 

I still think the 2 vs 7 is more impressive though I think Graves will have a uphill battle to win a title

He did say outside of a metro area. Highlands and NewCath aren't what I would consider "rural".
