NewCath by 60 and and any kid in the stands that isnt sure where he wants to play ball at in HS will have blue and gold on before the night is over. I think I may check this game out.

I hope that NewCath buries them. This is not just a game for the sake of the district, this is a game to be used to restock the pond. Those football players that are on the fence regarding Brossart and NewCath will get to see the gap in quality b/n the two. That and Brossart is very arrogant about almost everything, I'd love to see NewCath serve a little humble pie.

 

I hope those big fish that are considering both schools look a little further than just the success of the football programs. Nice article in the Enquirer about ACT scores this weekend. Brossart was nearly 2 points higher than NCC??? and that is with The Grosser boy down at NCC scoring a perfect score (congrats again to him). You can come watch the girls soccer teams square off tonight if you need to show a little hate for your fellow catholic school.:idunno:

I don't hate anyone. I just find a lot of the Brossart faithful to be very full of themselves. I'm sure that the feeling is mutual. Also, both schools are so comparable academically, that this other part of the high school experience will sway them. If I'm a football and baseball player primarily, I'm looking at NewCath. If I like basketball, I do what the 8th graders at St. Joes have done the past few years and go with my classmates to either one. That, again, is for those on the fence.

Mexitucky first off I hope NCC uses class as they normally do when this situation arises.

Second the arrogance of Brossart? Yes I have seen that over the years in a variety of athletic venues. Never used to be that way but since about the 2000's I have had a tough time with the attitude of a variety of ADULTS in the program as well as supporters of the program. But unless the adults step out there and take some hits :eek: I hope they do not run the score up for the players sake............

 

Third you are dead on with your comments about restocking the pond. Between these two schools they are vying for the same students/athletes..........NCC was always the choice for the athlete until about 1992-1993 when Brossart's boys basketball coach started "keeping home" some of those better athletes.......

 

One thing I will say in my observations of NCC teams over the years in all sports is they never embarrass opponents. Brossart.............well..............I have seen some outlandish basketball scores as a fan of an opposing team as well as seen a lot of "tooting their own horn" in football. But they are very proud of what they have accomplished and do not have the long standing tradition that NCC has in baseball, football, and basketball.

 

What I think is the scary part for NCC is IF Brossart gains any momentum in football at all and begins to convince players in the Cold Spring, Alexandria, California areas to play for the closer school.....well NCC would have issues not just with football but enrollment in general as they cannot sustain themselves with drawing from Newport, Bellevue, Dayton, etc and Fort Thomas is always an iffy area for them due to Highlands academic and athletic success.........

 

My point being I agree NCC needs to keep the thumb on Brossart in football but I highly doubt they will run the score up really bad unless it is unavoidable (like a Highlands vs Mason County this past weekend). :thumb:

No you can't. The game just got cancelled due to rain. I'll let you know when it gets rescheduled.

What an interesting thread! From the perspective of Holy Cross, the other 2A Catholic school in NKY, I guess "The enemy of my enemy is my friend!" Split the Campbell County talent evenly and knock each other out!

Will not help HC get over that hump..................Just would give them one more team to have a complex about!

Newport Catholic 63-0.

I didn't mean run up the score. I meant destroy them in the first half and then sub freely. I never advocate keeping starters in when the game is well in hand. I say go full go until the halftime, then let your starters come out for the first series of the second half to continue the education of beginning halves strongly. From there, sub freely. Don't run trick plays, but don't stop running your offense either.

Ok that makes sense................And like I said I really have never witnessed an NCC team in any sport run the score up.........

Not at all .

I'm sure some would say that we are.

Breds by 35.

Brossart players have been running their mouths all summer to the NewCath players. I've been waiting for this one. Players name the score. Hopefully 70-0.
