Was this an upset win by Cov Cath?

No, these two teams are even.

I believe the last 3 out of 4 meetings between these schools have been decided by 1 point. 

[Colonels_Wear_Blue]

The all-time series record between these two is now tied at 7 wins to 7.

Coach Eviston's coaching record improves to 4-3 against Lexington Catholic. Lex Cath remains the only team to beat Eviston three times during his tenure as head coach of the Colonels.

I guess that's why CCH keeps scheduling them every year. Pretty evenly matched

Congratulations to Covington Catholic.

Colonels play hard on the road and overcome a tough team and fight through some tough calls against them. They showed some grit and determination and never gave up. Sorry Teeroy! The Colonels have proved you wrong twice.

I’m a fan of Lex Cath. I hope they go far this season.
