Newport is struggling with a 1-4 record. Beechwood enters the game at 4-1 coming off a nice, hard fought win over a ranked, very athletic Covington Holy Cross team. The opening schedule for Beechwood has been a challenging weekly grind. Is there the potential for a letdown for Beechwood? Can Newport pose a threat for Beechwood? What does each team need to do in this game?

Jv will play 2-3 quarters.

Beechwood by A lot

The Wildcats are way down, more so than they have been over recent years. I'd like to see them make a game of it, but it's very doubtful.

You will see the freshman and sophomores of Newport fare well with Beechwoods back ups but not so much their first team.

Running clock early. Best scenario is no injuries for the victorious Tigers.
