Due to all the havoc caused by Covid-19, the South Oldham Dragons will not play their scheduled district matchup this week against Jeffersontown, since Jefferson County has shut down their athletic programs this week.

Instead, the Dragons will travel to Lexington to face the top-ranked team in Class 2A, the Eagles of Lexington Christian Academy.

South is coming off a bye week and enters the contest 4-1 on the season, with their only loss a 28-0 shutout at the hands of top-10 5A North Bullitt.   The Dragons last played two weeks ago in a 63-0 pasting of Seneca.

LCA is 6-1 after edging Danville, 34-30, last week.

Very interested in this game.   It will be my first-ever trip to LCA, and I'm looking forward to seeing both the Eagles and their facilities for the first time ever.

I'll post more thoughts on the matchup as the week goes on, but the game will be broadcast live video over the Pegasus Sports Network, beginning at 7 pm ET on www.pegasussportsky.com.

My heart says 28-21 Dragons. My head says 35-14 Eagles.

LCA #1 in class 2A in almost every poll I've seen....

Are you surprised by that?

This outcome feels about right to me. I still don't know enough about South Oldham to predict that they'll keep it close or even potentially pull the upset. This is assuming LCA will have its full compliment of players after sitting some against Danville.

Fayette County has gone into the red and the game is cancelled.

South Oldham instead will be heading to Brandenburg to play Meade County.

2020 strikes again.
