This is a great tradition and a huge game for the freshmen.

 

 

 

Congratulations to the Tomcat freshmen! Ashland’s future looks bright.

I really wanted to watch this game, but the citizens of Boyd County wouldn't allow it.

 

Congratulations to the young Tomcats.

Total whoopin'. From beginning to end.

I listened to this game on the radio and I concur with SpinDoc in that it sounded like a thorough beating from beginning to end. Ashland coach Leon Hart was the color commentator on the broadcast and had nothing but lavish praises for every Ashland player from the freshman class on down to the JFL. He said the varsity, JV, and freshman teams have hardly lost a game all season long. It sounds like Ashland has the next decade wrapped up as far as beating the rest of the teams from our area. Any single upset of Ashland in at least the next 5 years by a northeastern Kentucky team would be the crowning achievement of the season for any one of those teams. I have a few questions about Ashland's upcoming reign of NE KY dominance, though.

 

1) Is there any other school in northeastern Kentucky that will be able to compete with Ashland in the next few years?

 

2) What in the world happened to make Ashland suddenly so good?

 

3) Does Ashland have a chance at a state title with any of these upcoming classes we have heard so much about?

ABSOLUTELY.

Actually, it wasn’t sudden at all. Coach Hart came out of the gates quickly when arriving at Ashland in support of the JFL and Middle School. We are now seeing the fruits of that labor.

 

3) Does Ashland have a chance at a state title with any of these upcoming classes we have heard so much about?

 

This is the most difficult one to answer, IMO. The Tomcats have a fantastic sophomore class right now and I believe that particular group has a shot at making the championship game. Also, with the younger JFL’ers…who knows what talent may lie there.
