There are a lot of green teams at the top of 6A. 

 

In Courier-Journal poll it's the same except Frederick Douglass and Trinity are flipped with Trinity #3.

6A seems to have more candidates than usual.  I love it!!! Good luck to everyone. Game week ? Let's Go!!

Simon Kenton should be where Ryle is.

With all the D-1 talent Douglas has and the out of state competition they’re playing this season I’m looking forward to seeing if they can win the championship in one the better top to bottom 6A classes in recent years.
