Beechwood does have to play because Bishop Brossart is in their district. It's required.

Beechwood wanted to get one more touchdown with their starters so they wouldn't have to play the second half. Also, Dayton had constant late hits and cheapshots which were unsportsmanlike (many of which were not called) , so don't accuse Beechwood of being unsportsmanlike when they wanted to score when they were on the one yardline.

Look out two or three years from now for the varsity to be stacked.

40 - 0 at half-time. Second team remainder of game. Then Dayton might score, but I think our subs will score a couple of times if the coach allows it. Depends on how soon he puts the 3rd team in.

Actually Lloyd didn't force all but one fumble. They were misques between the QB and running back. Take away the touchdown pass that was obviously out of bounds and it is fourteen to nothing. Because Lloyd had a quarterback that really worked his butt off and scrambled a bit because the pocket collapsed in less than two seconds, Lloyd was able to actually gain some yards. I would like to see the total yards on offense if anyone has it. I am sure that Lloyd didn't have much. The bottom line is that Lloyd played their absolute best and Beechwood played their absolute worst, and the score was 32 - 12. Not to take anything away from the Lloyd players who did come out to play, this game was not close, and I don't think that any of the Beechwood fans or coaches EVER thought that the game might have been in jeopardy. :sssh:

I appreciate your loyalty for your team. But 34-12 is what it is. Get a grip and move on.

Only at Beechwood can our young men beat a team 34-12 and our fans and the losing teams fans have negative things to say about them. They played a bigger school and beat them like a red headed step child. It wasn't close, not ever. Lloyd was never in the game ! Even with 4 fumbles on our part. All the fumbles did was keep it from being very embarrasing for Lloyd. The problem at Beechwood is that we (The fans) are spoiled. We are so use to winning and winning big, that if we don't beat a team by 40+ points we are asking "what's wrong ?!" and the other teams fans are saying they played us close. We won 34-12 folks. Any where else, any other game, that is a rout !

I believe you are wrong about the starting time of the game. Everything I read says 7:00PM

Thank You !

I am not familiar with Central Hardin. Are they the same as "Central", listed in the rankings in 3A, RANKED #1 ???

I am an avid Beechwood Football Fan and have been for many years. It is my feeling that Beechwood will win this game for the 3rd straight year, but I do not believe we will win by the lopsided scores that have been voiced on this thread. Every time we play Dixie I get worried, simply because they are such a large school and have so many athletes to choose from. My common sense has a hard time rationalizing how a little 1A school can keep beating a 5A school year after year. I respect their players and especially their coach. Our J.V. played their J.V. last year in 2 very close games. They won once and we won once. We are all aware of how close the Varsity game was last year. The game tonight should be an awsome one and will probably not be settled until the very end. Beechwood is (over-all) a faster and more athletic squad than last years team. I have high hopes for a repeat in Louisville this year and this game is just the first step on the road back. Go " BIG RED " !!!

My prediction concerning last year was correct. We had 5 turnovers and you still lost.

The game is for sure at 7:30 at Beechwood. I expect this to be a very physical scrimmage too because both teams have big lineman and run power football. I wouldn't want to be a little guy and get caught in the trenches in this one because it is going to be very rough in the middle with the size and strength of each teams lineman.

A bad concussion and possibly a broken wrist.

I know that the Beechwood High School classes have around 75 - 80 kids per grade tops. The entire school (k -12) has around 850 kids, maybe a little more, but not much.

My prediction this season. Beechwood and LCA will never meet ! Hazard will beat LCA twice this season and meet Beechwood in the State Championship game. Hazard is an excellent team this season, but has no Championship experience. This will be their downfall ! The BEECHWOOD TIGERS will have back to back rings to wear. Remember this prediction at the end of the season. The WAMMY is in !!!!

Beechwood doesn't always have the most talent. Most of the time other teams have more athletic players and more talent but Beechwood still wins. Thats why the program at Beechwood is so special.

Beechwood- And Highlands and Boone County in game situation scrimmages.

I was told that they left because the coach told them that they were only going to be there until 3:30. Plus, wednesday is the day the boys get off, a much needed day of rest, and Coach Rash didn't want to completely wear them out for thursday's practice, which I heard is the hardest. Also, Coach Rash told the boys about the Highlands pass league just the night before after their pass league at Beechwood on tuesday. He didn't know if the players had prior obligations so he wanted them to get home at a decent hour.

I asked my son and he said that the players on the field during their practice was Dustin Menetry and some of is fellow teammates from Georgetown working out for the NFL combine. He also said that if a player on the team were to have a tattoo, first Coach Rash would make them pay for it to the point that the player would want to cut the tattoo out, and second that the player would have to keep it covered up at ALL times.

I remember that game like it was last night. Middlesboro was a very very tough team that year, probably one of the toughest teams ever to come through Kentucky Class A. After that game, Yeagle said that we could have played them ten times and they would win nine of them.

I thought LCA was suspended from playoffs next year?

Beechwood 1. Brandon Berger 2. Adam Wulfeck 3. Dustin Menetry

I agree that the penalties should have been more harsh than they were, but since they were put on probation for 1 year, doesn't that mean "no" post season play next year ??

I don't think most of you understand what has been going on at LCA. This is not about a school trying to help the needy or bring ethnic deversity to their school, this is about "money" ! greed ! ego ! To be found guilty of the charges brought on them, LCA had to go outside of their geographical boundries and recruit student athletes. I'm sure they had plenty of needy kids inside of their boundries, but those kids could not bring the athletic talent to LCA's program. 16 student athletes in a 1A program is HUGE ! The coaches and management of this program didn't just try to sneak in a couple of studs to tip the scales in their favor, they had a total commitment to take over and dominate Class 1A sports in the State of Kentucky. WHY ? money ! prestiege ! ego ! Nomatter how good a school is otherwise, if they don't have a top drawer athletic program, they will not grow and prosper. (Sad, but true) When a school has an excellent scolastic program coupled with a championship athletic department, people will flock to them in droves. (money,money,money !) I have no doubt that their 20 year plan was to dominate 1A, then 2A, then 3A etc., etc.up to 6A and finally compete with the Trinity's of the world. There can be no other explination with such a large commitment and risk of 16 athletes.
