Since 1987

[Sportsfan25]

I was watching insight channel 6 today. They showed a stat. Since 1987 there has been a Nky Class A and Class AAA semi finalist ever year since then. That is one amazing stat.

Hopefully New Cath and Highlands can keep this streak alive. I'm pretty sure at least one Nky team has been in the finals for 24 or 25 straight years. I would think if one of both of these teams win they will keep that streak alive as well.

Do you mean A and AAA both in the same year or in each class?

The same year. Maybe I should explain it more. Since 1987 a Nky Class A and Nky Class AAA team has been in the semi finals during the same year.

Bell County won the 3A region in 1990, along with Ashland. That's why I asked.

I understand that. But it said that Nky was in the semi finals in both classes since 87. I don't know anything about 3A back then but I know that Pikeville beat Beechwood in the 87 semis.

Your right I was just looking at a state football program. I looked up 90 in AAA. Cov Cath got beat by Bell County the week before. Either way it is an amazing stat.

A northern Kentucky team has been in at least one final four (regardless of class) every year back to 1973.

Yep, Bell beat CovCath in OT on Log Mountain in the quarterfinals. Bell then went to Ashland and lost to Juan Thomas and the Tomcats, who went on to win the state title.

since 1987 the Danville Admirals have been to the state semi final game 15 times. What do you think about that?

You can also add they've been there 17 times since 1984. :thumb:

I just thought that was pretty impressive, maybe even more so than the stat mentioned at the start of the thread.

In 4 A there has been a Louisville school in the final, 30 out of 32 years. Thats pretty amazing...or is it?

[Italian Stallion]

The NKY powerhouses seem to be in A and AAA.

This, in my opinion is amazing. In the Danville area, since 1987, a Danville, Boyle County, Lincoln County and/or a Harrodsburg team has either played for a state championship and/or at least been in a state semi-final game every year. We're talking about four relatively small communites (small in regards of the Louisville, Lexington, Covington/N KY, Owensboro, etc) all within 20 miles of the other.

 

Stanford (Lincoln County HS) population of maybe 3,000.

Danville (Danville HS, Boyle Co. HS) around 15,000

Harrodsburg (H'burg HS) population around 5,000.

 

For the past 18 years this area has had a team playing Thanksgiving weekend and usually for state-championship.
