2024 Outlook

Since 2019 the Bearcats have had a lot of success going 53-12 and not having a season where they lost more than 3 games reaching two 1A semifinals and 1 1A state championship. They never did get their ultimate goal of being State Champions but have had one great run. This year however they lose a lot of players that have given this team that success and literally about 90% of their offensive production of last year is gone. I do not know if you call this a rebuilding season but at the least it will be a very inexperienced team. The top three offensive starters do have a little bit of Varsity experience and they will look to build around them. They lost 12 seniors which is a lot for a small 1A school. They have built a great program though and do a great job of developing young players and even though it is a much bigger challenge this year I see no reason why they will not continue that.

I wonder why Eastern would drop down so many classes for a scrimmage?

So I went and looked at the TP94 Power Ratings from last year and found this:

KY Country Day 39.57
Eastern 29.39

Coach Jones does a great job. I hope he wins the big trophy soon.

Bump.
