Pioneer JV drive deep into X territory and turn it over.

 

35-28 X, 1:20 3Q.

35-28 end of 3.

 

JV from here on out.

Both teams need A LOT of work on the defensive side of the ball. Not many stops all night during the varsity portion.

Who is SK #7, their QB? I can't imagine there are too many better than him in KY this year. He took some licks, got up and made throws. He overthrew a kid who got deep on St. X, looked like 50 yards in the air, but maybe my memory is playing tricks. If SK can stiffen their D they will be good. St. X O-line looked good, as did RB #32 Metzmeier I believe.

Re the St. X JV, everyone was played so it was hard to pick up on much but they outplayed the SK JV. We St. X fans like our sophomores and freshmen, but I saw James Taylor, a DB named as an outstanding sophomore on this site a week ago. He is from Ascension parish, and played for St. Martha's Toy Bowl champion a couple years ago that featured him and another back named Peckinpah who was good and may still play for St. X JV, unlike Taylor who is a basketball player as well and may have chosen the other sport. Taylor returned a punt for a TD in the freshman team's 7-6 win at Moeller last year. It was a beautiful run, no doubt. Justin Harden was another player from that class who stood out at LB. I think he is recuperating presently.

Welcome aboard @Four for the IV and thanks for the information.

I think RB Sergent would have been #3 or maybe #13? The WR Murray #17? My memory is not what it was but I did take note of SK's skill position athletes and they looked good, though I'm guessing young Shearer makes them look good too. St. X first string DE's #99 and another in the 90s I think looked like they brought pressure when they played and made Shearer step up into the pocket to make throws and sometimes to take hits I thought he probably didn't see coming. He's got a first rate arm, but I was more impressed that he seemed to execute just as well after he got popped. Lot's of kids with good arms can't do that. He does not look fleet of foot but made judicious decisions and turned his running into a plus though I'm sure not all 8 of those were choices or positive plays. I'll keep an eye on SK to see how you do. How strong is SK on the respective lines? If St. X first string O line was in there most of the time I'll refrain from judging SKs D front 7. People say that the OL is the strength of St. X varsity this year, some say best OL in KY HS this season though we've got a couple of smaller kids up there with three big maulers from what I saw yesterday.

Sergent is 33 and Murray is 3.

Thanks Guru. You might be dignifying what I thought I saw last night too much by calling it "information" but I'll figure out who the Tigers have out there as the year goes on and I'll go to most varsity and all JV games. I follow HS basketball in Louisville and sometimes southern IN as closely as I can too and not just my alma mater's team. Very happy I found your site because the Courier does not provide the kind of coverage of HS sports it did back in the day. I guess there were actually two daily papers until Gannett bought them around 1990. I look forward to learning more about what goes on downstate as much as anything.

Oline is strength for both teams.

So I'm wrong but plausibly close on those numbers, thanks. Sergent is shifty and has some burst, but maybe not size. I remember Murray as fairly long? Was he/#3 the one who got behind us when Shearer got everything flowing to his left, including our deep coverage unfortunately, pivoted and hurled it to him on about the ten on the other side of the field? That was the second of two very long TDs for SK and there was a third time SKs receiver got past our DBs too but Shearer's adrenaline may have saved us.

#9 Hayden scored the 3 tds he is the tall receiver.
