Not anytime soon for sk!

Why do I feel like I have to cheer for Holmes?

Didn't Holy Cross start playing at Scott a few years ago in the playoffs, when Holmes also got to host a game? I think a large number of Holy Cross students come from the area of Taylor Mill and Independence so the venue probably works out pretty good for them. Does it matter if you get on a bus to go over to Holmes or further out to Scott. It is under 5 miles out to Scott. There was a decent crowd there for a Thursday night game. I know Beechwood had volleyball and girls soccer games. Talking with HC parent they said there was a boys soccer game. I don't know what Holy Cross has to pay to rent the facility but Scott High School Athletic Director Ken Mueller is a great guy and would do anything to help any student athlete in Northern Kentucky. I noticed that Holy Cross has male cheerleaders. Beechwood had a kid a few years back but I think that is the first time I've seen multiple male cheerleaders at the high school level. Can anyone comment how long this has been going on? I didn't sit and watch them so do they do any of the things that you see at the college level? They looked athletic, not as strong as their college counterparts.

It was Thursday night! While they do have a lot of coaches, I think I saw middle school and freshman coaches there tonight. Also the coaches that are normally in Mayfield were probably there too! :thumb:

Without pngallo and puncey, HC is different team.

Why does cov cath play so many freshman games on Wednesday?

I was surprised when you posted that comment in the Cov Cath thread. It is an election year so you have the right to change you mind without any consequences! Congrats to Raceland JV team. It is nice to be 3-0. All games matter or they wouldn't keep score. All kids need to learn how to win!

Just to be clear there were 2 different plays as indicated in previous post by LeeCorso. The questionable hit happened with the Tigers on defense with Erdman pursuing the play. I didn't think it was a crack back but the tall receiver (#11) delivered the hit high with the shoulder to the helmet or high shoulder area. Don't know if that is legal in high school or not. The injury occurred on the Tigers next offensive series. Erdman had just picked up a first down after a 20 yard gain on the sideline in front of the Beechwood bench (far sideline). Didn't look like he got hit but as he was going out of bounds he just went to the ground. I don't know the extent of the injury. Holmes has some serious talent. Very undisciplined and looked to be out of shape. Congrats and good luck. (especially next week)

Actually the JV team kicked in the scrimmage games but used varsity Miles Seletto as the kicker. After the first Tiger touchdown they did try to kick but it was pushed back 15 yards due to a penalty. Kick was short. On a special team related note: I thought SK scored on punt return for TD in the JV game.

Then it would have been a good time to develop another running back or get the back up QB some more snaps so he is ready if needed. I don't think the team losing badly needs to take their first string out unless that creates a mismatch going the other direction. Often times the first string of losing team is comparable to 2nd string of winning team. I think every player played in Beechwood's 20-22 JV loss to SK. I'm not sure that's the right thing to do either as I don't think SK was taking that approach. Hopefully that benefits the Tigers in the future.

You certainly use the big grin emoticon a lot! Does SK have a kicker for JV? Went for the 2pt conversion from the beginning of the game?

I think what he means is compared schedule to the other 6A teams from NKY. There is a difference!

They had 6 touchdowns yet only 37 points? Not a very good PAT success!

Congrats SK! The Tigers were much improved over the scrimmages and I was very pleased how Tigers played. They were in position to win it late in the fourth quarter. Just didn't happen. Although Max would help tremendously on offense (time of possession, keeping the ball away from SK) he was missed more on defense last night. Not sure anyone blitzes as good as he does. That could have slowed down the sk offense a little bit. Loved the fake punt call on your own 10 yard line. Cojones Grandes!

Tigers played very well!

Sk converted on 3rd and 9 with 140 left. Big play

Max not playing. 10-7 beech 324 left second

Do you know what "Child Please" is a substitution for? edit: I'm not saying that to you. He used it in post #22.

All the transfers and tuition students did outstanding!

Plainspoken has made a lot of claims without facts. He didn't look up the Highlands tuition information until I challenged his bet. I think everyone knew that the private school would charge higher tuition than Highlands or Beechwood. So what is the "state charge" he mentions? With KERA I am paying for other kids to go to schools throughout the state!

You make a lot of generalizations!
