Yes...Papa John's did not bid to renew the contract with the KHSAA and Western Kentucky did...so for the next couple of years the state finals will be held at Western Kentucky University in Bowling Green

That is good for us in the west, Louisville was just a long boring drive from Fort Campbell. Hopefully the Falcons will be making a return appearance while it is so close to home.

Thanks for the update. I was expecting another early Saturday morning for 2A. Really like the middle of the afternoon on Friday for 2A! Much better than the 11 AM start in Louisville, which was really a 10 AM start for those of us in the central time zone.
