The year you speak of where he went 6-5 Bryan Station had eventual state champ Highlands on the ropes.

Having Highlands on the ropes in the first round of the playoffs means he finished 4th in the district.

They finished 4th due to a KY's screwy tie breaker point system and a 3 way tie with Ashland and Woodford. Ask anyone from HHS, they were probably the toughest KY team HHS played all year.

All that indicates is the teams they beat were not very good.

What exactly did Lucas build?

 

He had 2 division 1 players in 2008 and went 6-5 and won 1 playoff game in 4 years.

 

Goodluck to Coach Turner.

 

 

The fact is that Coach Lucas had to build a program from scratch. In year 3 he had Highlands beat with a minute to go. The Highlands coach was very gracious after the game in attesting to the fact that they hadn't been tested like that in quite some time.

Fortunately for the new coach, he will be taking over a program in a much different position than the one that Coach Lucas took over. Best of luck to the kids at Bryan Station!
