  5. I'll admit bias by saying I trust the catholic schools my kids have attended to administer this program more than I do the public.
  6. CovCath's policy looks solid but I still would have a hard time allowing a school to administer drug tests to my child. Schools may say they have my child's best interests in mind but they will still put their interests above my child's. The trust factor, at least with one school they attended is way too low for me to have considered such a thing; especially with the Campbell Co. Police on site daily as resource officers. I don't have a problem testing my kids myself though and have done so in the past.
  7. More press! Recent success of Brossart football team helps promote campaign to build athletic stadium | NKyTribune While Bishop Brossart High School supporters are raising funds to construct an outdoor athletic stadium, the football team has generated some excitement of its own with a 3-1 start this season. The Mustangs have not had a home field of their own since the varsity football program was started in 2007, but that could soon change. The school conducted a public meeting on Wednesday to unveil plans for a football/soccer stadium with lights and an eight-lane track. The site for the stadium is on Gilbert Ridge Road off U.S. 27, less than one mile from the high school. Brossart football and soccer teams currently use the property as a practice field. The recent success of the Brossart football team should help promote the stadium project. The Mustangs posted records of 8-3 and 9-2 the last two years and appear to be on their way to another winning season. On Friday, Brossart will play Nicholas County in the first Class 1A district game for both teams. Kickoff is set for 7:30 p.m. at Campbell County High School, where the Mustangs are playing their home games this season. “Campbell County has been awesome to work with in allowing us to use their field and so have other schools in the past,” said Brossart head football coach Paul Wiggins. “But to actually have a place where we can just walk out of the locker room and on to the field and have our own place to play would just be a major boost for us, and for soccer and track too.” Wiggins said he wanted to face a district opponent in his team’s Homecoming game on Friday to make it “a game with meaning behind it.” Nicholas County was the only district team that beat the Mustangs last season, so they definitely want to come out on top this time. To do that, Brossart must contain or outscore a Nicholas County offense that’s averaging 221 rushing yards per game. The team leaders are senior running back Kody Campbell with 496 yards on 114 carries and junior quarterback Isaac Fryman with 418 yards on 67 carries. “They are big and they play football like I did back in the 80s,” coach Wiggins said. “They just line up and pound it, and they do it very well.” Junior linebacker Nathan Bezold has been the Mustangs’ standout performer on defense. In the team’s first four games, he made 58 tackles with one interception and one fumble recovery. Wiggins said he named Bezold one of the team captains early in the season because of the effort he puts into each game and practice session as a linebacker and running back. But it will take more than one player to keep Nicholas County’s offense in check. “It’s got to be a collective effort,” the coach said. “No one person is going to be able to stop their running game. They’re big and they come right at you. We need 11 guys playing their positions as they were taught to slow them down.” The Mustangs are averaging 291 yards per game with a more diversified offense. Junior quarterback Tyler MacDonald has completed 53 of 106 passes for 912 yards, but the team has scored six of its 11 touchdowns on the ground while averaging 103 rushing yards per game. “As far as our offense goes, I would say we’re a lot more open with what we do,” Wiggins said. “I’m not afraid at times to say, ‘Hey, it’s working in the air so let’s just stay in the air.’ We’ll pass to set up the run as opposed to the other way around.” The success of Brossart’s passing attack has a lot to do with senior wide receiver Bryce Donnelly, who is averaging 95.3 reception yards per game with four touchdowns. In the Mustangs’ last game, Donnelly broke team records for most receiving yards (1,475), most touchdown receptions (22) and most touchdowns scored (25) in a varsity career. “He presents a problem for most teams,” Wiggins said. “He does things very well and his routes are usually pretty crisp.”
  8. Campbell Co. High School this year. Normally, Campbell Co. Middle School which is undergoing renovations of the field.

  10. One student is an outbreak?! What does this have to do with the game?
  11. Will David Dooley get out of jail? Will David Dooley get out of jail for the first time in five years? His attorneys on Wednesday tried to convince a judge there wasn't enough evidence to justify the $1 million bond Dooley has been held on as he awaits his second trial in the murder of Michelle Mockbee. "Since the very beginning of this case, he's maintained he's innocent of the charges against him," said Dooley's attorney, Jeff Lawson. Judge J.R. Schrand didn't rule on Wednesday, saying he'll issue an order later. Dooley has been in jail since 2012 when Mockbee's battered body was found at Thermo Fischer Scientific in Boone County where she worked. Dooley was the janitor there. The case garnered national attention with two Dateline episodes. A judge in 2014 sentenced Dooley to life in prison after a jury convicted him. That conviction was overturned this year when a surveillance video came to light of an unidentified man at the scene of the crime hours before Mockbee was killed. The controversy damaged the credibility of Commonwealth's Attorney Linda Tally Smith and lead detective Bruce McVay. Tally Smith and McVay admitted in a March court hearing an affair developed between the two after the 2014 trial. Lawson asked to let Dooley on home incarceration without bond or at least lower it to $100,000 cash or property. No physical evidence tied Dooley to the crime, Lawson said. And DNA taken from under Mockbee's arms came from two people other than Dooley, he said. "He's not a flight risk," Lawson said. "He wants to address these charges straight up. He wants to come before the court and have a better chance to address all these issues, have this case tried before a jury where we believe he'll be acquitted." Special prosecutors with the Kentucky Attorney General's office opposed lowering the bond. The seriousness of the crime makes a $1 million bond appropriate, said Jon Heck, a special prosecutor with the attorney general's office. "A woman was found dead on a filthy warehouse floor," Heck said. "Nothing could be more serious." Heck argued a jury already convicted him and will likely again. "It's rare we have a case that we can look back and say we think we know what the jury is going to do in this case because it was already tried once," Heck said. But the surveillance video of the mysterious man wasn't available to the first jury, Lawson countered, as well as other evidence. And the first jury spent a long time deliberating, he said. Now both sides await the judge's order. Dooley's wife and family declined comment leaving the courtroom. Mockbee's sister, Jennifer Schneider, said she doesn't doubt Dooley's guilt and doesn't think he'll get out of jail. "We fully expect judge Schrand to not grant lower bond," Schneider said. "He's presided over this case since Day One and he saw the evidence that all points to David Dooley's guilt."
  12. Fort Thomas Independent Schools
  13. Awesome! Hope to be there! Is McCormick back? I believe he came out of the game against Newport with an ankle injury or something.
  14. She is a senior guard. Solid player. Good shooter.
  15. Most associations will ask officials if there are any conflicts of interest or school affiliations and most officials will self-select and opt out of schools. Another factor to consider here is that there is a shortage of officials across the state. There are Lexington guys traveling up to the 10th region on a daily basis, for example. Do we really want to turn away people just because they graduated from a school 25 years ago? If so, more people need to step up.
  16. :lol2: Sounds like CovCath has gotten into the Beechwood faction's heads and they can't figure out how to remove them. The cure is to just win...
