groinpull Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Dixie, Boone and Conner are all really struggling this year it looks like. It wasn't all that long ago that Dixie and Boone were both solid programs. Boone won the region a few years ago. Conner was always pretty good too. My guess is in the case of Boone/Conner it is demographics. Club players are moving to the newer areas and they are served by Ryle/Cooper. Dixie probably a bit of the same thing but I'm not sure.

imsays Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Language barrier is not a problem for Holmes. You can add Scott and HC to that list of teams that are down. No language barrier there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldtimebaseball84 Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Obviously, District 35 is the one to beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldgrappler Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 One word......"language barrier" You're like the Donald Trump of BGP... Language barrier is not a problem for Holmes. You can add Scott and HC to that list of teams that are down. No language barrier there. OTB was referring to an article written on the Boone Co team this year highlighting the diversity on the team and the number or nations represented on it. Many of them are English as second language kids and the article said that a senior originally from Africa helps out with the language barrier. Here's a link to the thread discussing it: http://bluegrasspreps.com/ky-boys-soccer/boone-county-soccer-331908.html BTW, Boone made it to the state semifinals in 2012.

AGullett08 Posted September 14, 2016 Author Share Posted September 14, 2016 Why is Dixie not better? Don't they have a fair amount of Club kids? Maybe Holmes is just good this year. Which I haven't seen a Holmes team more well equipped then this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riseandgrind03 Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Congrats to Holmes! No one was talking about them in presesson but the 35th district tournament may be interesting this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You posted this 2 minutes before posting they tied Villa. I'm thrilled Holmes is improving, great for NKY soccer, but I stand by this result vs Dixie is shocking. My question isn't about Holmes, I'm simply surprised Dixie isn't better this year. Just asking a question, absolutely no shot at Holmes intended.

I apologize for taking it as a shot directed towards Holmes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
