Beechwood is recognizing two teams from 40 and 50 years ago, wow do I feel old. At Beechwood’s August 30th game against Campbell County, the 1974 and 1984 Beechwood teams are being recognized during the game and with a pregame tailgate at the school. 

Luke Erdman received an offer from Dayton.

Congrats Luke!  Very well deserved.  I can’t wait to watch you play this season.

Had not heard this before.  Is this first hand knowledge(?) or rumor from another source?

There's no pending lawsuit.  I'm saying I won't be surprised if one day there is.  It's harder than old AstroTurf.  I have no idea how the idea of their turf fill got approved for football.

I was literally just on the field for the first time two weeks ago. Now sure where you are getting harder than astroturf, because it was not hard at all, and definitely soft as you walk on it too. 
 

The turf fill they use is envirofill which is the same other teams and colleges use too. So it’s not like they got this brand new thing no one used before. Even St. Xavier in Ohio uses envirofill. It just hasn’t been seen much in NKY as most schools in NKY use the rubber tire fill.

The purpose of adding it to the thread was to spread the word.  I had no idea about it until someone involved hit me up a few days ago.

I believe he also has an offer from Navy for track and a Preferred Walk-on “offer”(?) From UC! 
 

Can’t wait to watch the Tigers throw the ball around! I wanna see Clay and Luke at the same college next year.
