Looking forward to this and will be tuning in. 

Winner here will play either Sayre or LCA next week in Owensboro.

Link indicates "video"? That would be a treat.

The link always says video because that’s how it is worded/setup in HUDL. This will be audio only. We are hoping to add video in the future to our radio call.

Terrific livestream by Holy Cross Indians Radio.

@Baseball Nut 24 to follow with post-game details.

It's a good thing the fire marshall didn't show up, might have sent some people home. LOL

 I voted Holy Cross in the poll but I felt at full strength Newport definitely had a shot. Congrats to the Cats. The more things change.....however the saying goes lol

Just a great HS game between two small schools.

You have to give Coach Snapp credit. Impressive job rolling with the punches and player turnover and putting a winner on the floor.
