It was a scoreless 1st quarter, Gators scored 23 in the 2nd quarter and that was the game. Game went about how I figured, the Dragons were unable to stop the Greenwood pass rush and were in shambles all evening, their lone score was off of a pick 6. SR Davis Chaney had another productive evening for the downhill play style they wish to play, but it’s the defense that is a strength for this Gators team and it’ll be interesting to see how well they can continue to progress. Greenwood travels to Barren County next week while the Dragons renew a “rivalry” with the Purples that’ll end a 6 year hiatus.

5A District 2 - Noted!

I know the Dragons were playing 6A to avoid the bullies in the county in 5A after their 4A stint was up a few seasons ago. I wonder whose idea it was to come to 5A and group with BG rather than just biting the bullet and go with SW in that poorly constructed 6A District 2.

Central has 5A population numbers is what I thought and because of that they aren't allowed to ask to play up.  Or it might be a better option I'm not sure.

You’re right they are a 5A team in terms of population, but I’m fairly certain their numbers weren’t 6A the last few years while they were competing in 6AD2 . If you look at 6AD1 right now CC and Hopkinsville are present, and I have a hard time believing either of those have 6A #’s either, well maybe County but definitely not the Tigers.

"Before" you could "play up" if you requested it.  But as I understand it, this current realignment you can not "play up" anymore.

I'm 100% on board with your CC and HopTown thoughts though!

Okay that makes sense, I never got that memo. And with those two teams I mentioned it definitely doesn’t seem that rule is applying to them, I suppose Warren Central should start creating rumors they’re consolidating with Bowling Green or something.

I believe they (KHSAA) put CC and Hoptown in 6A due to the "projected" consolidation efforts they are supposed to make and the combined population would put them in 6A.  I guess.

Just happy we have been able to keep a team on Morgantown Road.
 

Coach Harness has done a great job this season and I hope he continues to build the program back up.
