Trigg County fell behind 20-0 a minute into the third quarter. They then scored the final 34 points of the game for the win. They got a scoop and score on one of three Monroe turnovers in the second half. Trigg QB Cam Jordan ran for 151 and threw for 199. Trigg's defense held Monroe to 10 rushing yards in the second half.
A couple of key points. Monroe's starting QB didn't play due to injury. Also, Monroe was on the verge of going up 27-0 when they hit a receiver on a screen for an apparent touchdown. He went down at his own 40 with a cramp. The Trigg scoop and score soon followed and the game's complexion changed.
Back in the day before ESPN secured any pro sports contracts, I can remember watching Warren Moon play for the Eskimos in the CFL, watching unlimited hydroplane racing with Chip Hanaur, and Australian Rules Football. That, and waking up to the Sportscenter loop running until noon
I had so many picks taken 2-4 spots ahead of my draft slot last year. I had my draft mapped out and counted four picks taken ahead of me in the same round and seven within two rounds.
I hope the opposite is true this year.
I know of several soccer officials with three or less years of experience who have opted to become volleyball officials. Pay is comparable, you are inside, and parents and players aren't as radical
When things like this happen, you always hear the coaches muttering "This is what happens when you take 7 on 7 out of June."
Both days were hot. McCracken folks did a great job of running it and communicating.
All I have to do is mention Jack Brickhouse, Jody Davis, Dave Kingman and the Sandberg game vs Sutter to know who the true Cubs fans are.
I agree with Rocket. How many Golden State Warrior fans did you know in 2008?
I'm nowhere near a Reds fan but I really like Eugenio Suarez. Glad to see him make the all-star team. Liked his game after seeing it last year in a three-game series at the GABP.
Marty should have retired years ago. His chapped butt attitude over small things has never been a good look. At least he didn't induce fans to throw things at the umpire this time
Marshall didn't look bad over the summer. Watched them three times. It was actually announced last week that he resigned then changed his mind. He then resigned this week.
Caldwell County won 15 straight Fifth District titles from 1991 to 2005 before the streak was ended by the KHSAA, who moved them to the Seventh District
A top tier program in the nation can't be down to eight scholarship players when there are two empty scholarships. It just can't happen. You are allowed to carry 13 scholarship players. UK had 11 last year. Winyard, Baker, and Vanderbilt all missed significant time.
There is no reason why Calipari or his staff can't find someone like a Darius Miller or Derek Willis (doesn't have to be a kid from Kentucky) to fill the other two spots and coach up for 2-3 years. If it were me, I would fill the two spots with the two best perimeter shooters I could find.
It doesn't bother me if Calipari fills his scholarship quota on the roster fully unlike last year.
If Payne and Brad Calipari get minutes when there are 2-3 open roster slots, then I'm not a fan. There should never be a reason why UK is down to eight scholarship players for any game.
