What is considered a really good strength number for a high school player in the squat, clean, bench combo? I'm thinking 1200 lbs. Is this too high or too low?

Does anyone know the date of the Raceland event this year?

485 for 1 today.

I have seen the N. Bullit lifting event referred to as the "state meet" for a few years. What makes it the state meet? Does a lifter need to qualify to attend? Can any high school student attend and lift?

Maxed 465 in July. Pushing for 500 by graduation.

Evan Richardson Highlands. Bench 405 for 7, deadlift 600, power clean 315.

What are the criteria for attending the North Bullit event?

It's getting to be that time of year again. Does anyone know of any upcoming Kentucky high school weightlifting meets? North Laurel has a great event in March. I have also heard Boyd County and Raceland have strong meets in late Feb. or early March. Any information would be appreciated.

Mike Dunn will be a top returning o-lineman for the Birds in 2016. He gained a lot of experience last year. His development was impressive.

Accepted at Rose-Hulman this week.

Wearing a bench press shirt does not count.

I do not believe the average fan understands the complexity of a program deciding to play up or not. There are many factors that play into that decision. These are just a few of many factors not in any order. 1. Money: Football funds other sports in the district. If your district opponents do not attend games well, the gate will be low. If you play teams in your district that travel well and attend games, the gate will be high. This is a rather large factor in any decision to move up or stay. HHS vs covcath brings in a lot more money than HHS vs Harrison Co. If you lose two or three big gates a year, it is a big deal. 2. Travel: Teams that have to travel further for their district games incur more expense. Taking four buses to Harrison Co from Fort Thomas costs more than going to Dixie. Again, back to money. 3. Rivalry maintenance. HHS wants to maintain its rivalry with covcath. If covcath moves, HHS will at least consider moving to maintain that rivalry. 4.Winning championships. This is important, but obviously it is on a lower rung. HHS understood that staying in 4A and playing JC, Ashland, and Scott would be an easier road to a ring than playing Pulaski, BG, Owensboro, North Laurel, and Fern Creek. I am probably missing at least two other important factors. HHS cares about winning, but there are also other factors to consider when running an entire athletic department.

Raw.

Heard the first day was extremely physical for the KY team. Today was less physical.

I have enjoyed all the haters coming out this year to happily proclaim the death of football in Fort Thomas. Our down year is a trip to the 5A state semis.

Anyone ever bench press 500 lbs. before high school graduation in the Commonwealth of Kentucky?

Congratulations to Bo Hebel. Drive blocking pancake machine.
