Bardstown High School just announced this Bardstown High School is excited to announce Justin Grundy as its next head football coach. Grundy brings 15 years of coaching and playing experience to Bardstown, where he has served as a position coach and defensive coordinator. He succeeds former Bardstown head coach David Clark, who stepped down from the position in December after being the head coach since 2007. A Bardstown native, Grundy played football, basketball, and track at Bardstown High School (BHS). Grundy was a 2001 state championship team member and played on the 2002 Kentucky All-Star Team. After graduating from BHS in 2002, Grundy played college football for Eastern Kentucky University as a linebacker. Grundy earned a bachelor of arts in public relations, a master's degree in special education from Campbellsville University, and his Rank I in counseling from the University of Cumberlands. In 2008 he started his teaching and coaching career at Bardstown City Schools. Grundy is the father of four tigers.

If I am not mistaken the last time Bardstown had a player play in the KY All Star game was Wenquel Graves c/o 2007, since then the Tigers have had a few players who may have been worthy of representing the state but didn't get a chance too. None of them stack up to how electric Tyty has been on the football field at all aspects of the game. Seeing him behind a true offense of line could be very scary. What needs to happen for this small town kid to have a chance to represent his hometown and this State. I believe every coach that has seen Tyty play or coached against him will agree he is the real deal and would make a splash in the All Star game.

With the next cycle I believe Bardstown is one of many schools looking around saying no matter what the road is going to be tougher, they could be in one of the toughest districts in the State if the get placed with CAL and Central. If that was to happen I feel bad for their sister district

I agree with you if your not top five you can't claim to be competitive.

I said the same thing when I heard about it. But the rate the school system is growing 800 kids in the elementary alone 4A could be reality sooner then later. Why test the water now?

Spencer finished top 5 in the RPI in 4A and Bardstown has competed with them year in and year out. By no means am I saying Bardstown would come in and be a top 5 team but I believe they could compete at the same level Spencer does.

Whispers are starting to circulate around town that the Tigers may be playing up to 4A? Could they compete?

CAL is a great all around team Congrats to them all. Those young men showed up and did their jobs! I wish a couple things would’ve went Bardstown’s way so they could’ve got in the end zone. At the end of the day the better team won. It was great to see a team of kids who all went to the same middle school make the State Championship, this Bardstown team is the definition of home grown! I believe there are less than 5 kids on the entire team that didn’t go to Bardstown Middle School.

Instant classic Glasgow never gave up and made the most of every opportunity they had. Bardstown Just couldn’t put Glasgow away in the beginning of the second half! ps Can so one tell me the rule of kicking a onside kick??? If the recovering team calls for a fair catch, is it legal to smack the ball out of mid air so the recovering team cant catch it?? This play was a huge momentum shift in the game. Oh and this play happened three times and each time it was a different call

I think just maybe when Bardstown looks back on this season they will be able to say this game was the game that they found their identity. Down a few starters but found away to get it done. Spencer County hats off to you all Coach Marksbury you have a damn good bunch of kids that never gave up at all. Best of luck to both teams in the rest of the season.

Bardstown is going to surprise a lot of team everyone knows they always have speed and wit their young QB have a year of experience under his belt and a solid running back returning the Offense will score. And O yea Chuck Smith the D Cord he will have the kids ready

Yes he is an he has already set the tone for bardstown defense the kids are responding well to his coaching

Chuck Smith is coaching At Bardstown High School That's a Fact

A team that must ppl forget about is bardstown there young but the got speed like always and their QB is only a jr if he was taller everyone in the state would be talking about him. Glasgow has to be on the top ten as well them are a solid team all around and Danville is up in the air.
