  1. I believe this line of thought supports Trinity's lack of enthusiasm for participating in the recent past. The Ryle Sports Festival was an awesome event with Cincy X, Elder, Trinity, MBA or BA one year, etc. Triple header with competitive games.....modest payout for the teams....reasonable ticket price....I always wondered why the Rocks opted out and now I have my answer.
  2. As a fan, I hope Trinity makes it "worth their while" to come to Louisville and then visit there next season at no cost to the home team.
  3. I agree. I know one staffer who thinks the 1988 squad was the best. I know another former coach who feels the 1976 team would give the Beatty teams fits defensively. They were a nasty bunch. I am happy to see the success continue.
  4. The Marist Redhawks have a road game at the Moline Sr High Maroons on October 25. Cheaper to travel a lot closer to home and pay the buyout than to come to Louisville. It was always a one and done deal. Marist has their 2014 schedule set and published online at their website. The headache of scheduling games for Trinity now falls on the shoulders of Rob Saxton, the AD in waiting. He takes over for Dennis Lampley next June according to the school president. Read all about it on the front page at trinityrocks.com.
  5. there is NO 50% RULE. Any student may apply for work study. All funds earned are applied to tuition.
  6. I have been told by a Male staffer that this year's freshmen group will not come close to last year's squad. The rules for staying at Male are somewhat tougher than other JCPS members, and this has hurt them in the past. I still feel Manual has a ton of talent. Their QB is the real deal. The kids have to buy in to the program. I am hoping the Bruins rattle some cages early this season.
  7. Thankfully for Beechwood, Highlands, Danville, Bowling Green, etc., they have open enrollment.
  8. They apply for admission like anyone else. They are then able to apply for financial aid . Trinity awarded $2,500,000.00 in "need based" tuition aid for this coming year. The alumni, friends, and the wise investors Trinity has on hand help make this tremendous gift possible. The funds are divided up by a third party clearing house in Cleveland that simply analyzes tax returns and other finacial factors and arrives at an amount compared to all other applicants. The funds alotted to students who have chosen not to attend Trinity this fall are now being split up among those who have recently applied for financial assistance. As it has been stated on here before, there is no 50% cap mandated by the KHSAA.
  9. Yes and Trinity will receive the buyout $. I have not heard any "official" reason. I am certain they came up with a better plan...like playing somebody at home in 2013. They did advertise on the KHSAA open date forum.
  10. If some schools would quit splitting and building new schools in KY........Trinity is at 1300-1350...
  11. The funds they split each year should answer that question! The last time St X tried not to face Trinity, the Archbishop of Louisville stepped in. Of course, that was 1956 and St. X won 48-0. The series was on despite the beat down.
  12. Trinity and St. Xavier are permitted to play their district game week 6 each season. I understand Male and Manual agreed to this arrangement. The KHSAA had to grant their permission.
  13. I find it interesting that the three public schools you mention above are each independent school districts. They have options of accepting students from outside thier "boundaries". The larger publci County schools have had no where near the success of these smaller "city" schools. In Trnity's case, bigger is better and the administartion makes it work. As the local public schools have chosen limit their enrollments, Trinity has grown through the years. I use the huge public schools in Indiana as a prime example of how big works. In Ohio, they suggested to Colerain to split into two schools. Those folks declined.
