Final score from Fort Thomas.

Cov Cath gets the win, pulling away in the second half after tying it up at 14-14 with 1 second left in the first half.

 

 

I thought Highlands looked better in the first half. 

Fun game!

CovCath travels to Independence next Friday!

Wow! Great game and atmosphere! Weather ended up perfect for football!

This was a prime example of the classic “second half team”….clearly the showing out tonight the Colonels showed no quit.  The Birds certainly gave us everything we could handle as they stepped up and brought it, but the second half was a way different Colonel Team that put this game away.  

A total shame these 2 teams will not meet in the playoffs, but a spectacular Colonel win on a steamy August Friday night.  Go Colonels!!!

Highlands is undisciplined. 

Why wasn't Benke in on the series in the third quarter when CovCath turned it over deep in their own territory? CovCath held and that was a big swing in momentum.

Yes, I was really disappointed in Highlands lack of discipline. And to be honest, I wasn’t impressed with the way they were coached either.

Clearly in the second half we agree.

It is not a shame to me because as a "NKY Guy" the thought of both teams winning a state championship in the same year is delightful. 

Congrats to CovCath. I continue to believe they are the best team in NKY this year.

Why do we fix the things that aren't broken and don't fix the things that are broken.

I cannot say you are wrong at all here,  but c’mon, it is pretty cool on a chilly October/November Friday night when these 2 hook up for a playoff battle.  
 

The setting, the atmosphere, the air, all of it just screams perfect High School Football.  I will not disagree with you, but I will miss what could be….

I was actually talking about this with someone today.

Beechwood, CCH and Highlands

all winning a State Championship this year would be amazing! 

I mean first down on the 12 and you use your stud as a decoy. What was that.
