Looks like Lavell Wright going to play. Definitely will be a boost to North Hardin offense.

We feel like he’ll be ready to go,” Thompson said. “When you’ve got a thoroughbred you can’t bring a thoroughbred back early. We tried to do a couple of things last week and it looked like he wasn’t 100 percent. If he’s not 100 percent, he’s not going to play. I’m not going to jeopardize that young man’s future for a game.”

Man, I love those Media Notes!  I miss them.  They used to come out every Wednesday before the Purples games like clockwork!  Kept you in the know as a fan!

Good luck X!

I assume Coach Wallace is behind those or has somebody do them for him?

I would say he is behind them but not sure if he does them himself or has someone else do them.

I would say Coach Wallace is 100% behind them.  He is a huge proponent of the history of the game and IMO is one of the most diligent you will find in promoting his players and his school.  This is just one example of that.

Same here, Wallace did a heck of a job behind the scenes!

Congrats to the Tigers that made the Greater Louisville Coaches Association’s all-district team.

That's really cool, a lot of respect for him doing that for his kiddos!

Hard to judge a team with their best offensive weapon not on the field for this game or the one prior. Go watch the Douglass tape and see what a difference maker Mr. Wright was. 

Wright was the difference when North Hardin beat Belfry 21 to 20.   Without him North Hardin would more than likely have one loss.  Good athlete. Stepped up when his team needed him.

Exactly, that young man is built different.

 

So looking at the last 2 games for NH and judging them does folks no good, so throw that tape out lol go watch Douglass and Belfry tape.

I think this game comes down to turnovers. Hard to beat any good team when you turn the ball over. I’ll go St. X 17-14 with my final prediction.

He’s a good player, but the test will be can North Hardin’s OL block we’ll enough for 4 quarters? If they can, North Hardin will have a good night offensively if they don’t they will struggle to move the ball. Also, with the Belfry game it seemed that Belfry at times rushed only 3 defenses too much, don’t count on that from the St. X defense.

Wallace used to be the one to draw them up at Bowling Green during my time there, it was quite fun listening to him break down the history of matchups.

Good luck to the Tigers tonight!

 

I'll go with St. X by the score of 20-10.
