Final from Bardstown. First win in the Coach Sams era comes in dominant fashion over a solid Nelson County team.

Thanks for the updates @BBN_34!

 

I’m a little surprised NC didn’t put up a better fight in this one, I think they are improved but just not ready to start beating good teams yet.

As I said in the prediction thread, Nelson County’s emergence last year was due largely to some really good lineman who have now graduated, along with a few dynamic skill players. While they have a couple good skill players and a couple good lineman back, their depth is lacking.

Nelson County was well coached and executed well. The South Oldham offensive and defensive line were significantly bigger which proved to be a major challenge for Nelson County especially given their style of play.
