  1. I doubt NDA prioritizes any sport above another. It's about what sports the parents and students choose to put above basketball. NDA's tradition in Soccer, Tennis, Golf, Swimming, and Volleyball is unmatched. And softball has been turned around too. NDA has the athletes, they just choose other sports.
  2. Nice bounce-back win for the Pandas after two tough losses. Some may consider this an upset win for NDA, but the last 6 meetings between NDA and NCC are split 3-3.
  3. 3%? More like 75%! Willing to bet a McRib that 75% of the people on here are 45+, and 90% are technically obese.
  4. NCC Senior Mikah Freppon verbal commits to D2 Lewis University in the GLVC
  5. Has anyone considered maybe this is the future for Highlands football? Other programs have stepped up their game. Population shifts are pumping more talent into other districts. Fort Thomas is aging out. Maybe playing football at Highlands isn't as big of a priority as it used to be. There are other options.
  6. apparently the vultures have been waiting several years to show up after an NDA loss
  7. There is no fix. Everyone thinks classes are a fix. All that means then is that the smaller private schools in populated areas will win the small school division, and everything else will remain the same. I suppose KHSAA could do what OHSAA does and limit the number of players from the same club team that can be on a high school team, but honestly that hasn't really changed who wins in Ohio - plus they have like 4 classes I think. The KHSAA probably feels they can't fix the demographics, so they figure they will at least cover geography. And who made basketball special? classes for all sports or none. But I would find a way to get the Region winner and runner-up to State across the board. Too many good teams in deep Regions being left behind in both soccer and volleyball, while the winner of Region 1 or 15 goes out and loses 10-0.
  8. and a fluke that's only happened in soccer. Volleyball is even more limited - only the same 4 schools have won the title the last 35 years. think about that...35 years, and the title has bounced back and forth between only 4 schools...all while volleyball has grown to become the #1 girls sport in Kentucky. The gap is incredible.
  9. every quarterfinal game was a 3-0 sweep...is the separation between the top team and others really that large?
  10. 1-1 at half. Big 2nd half propels Pandas to huge road win at Lex Cath. Play Corbin this Saturday in State Quarterfinal, site TBD. Like I stated earlier, that Dixie loss came at a perfect time and it refocused NDA. On an impressive 7 game win streak since that loss - 3 GA, 37 GF.
  11. True, but this is not a news site. People who give game reports think they're journalists, but they're not - journalists are inherently unbiased and reports on here are usually clouded by bias, one way or the other. And then people will state they are specifically tougher on their own teams in their reports than someone who is unbiased, which again proves my point - they are not delivering an accurate report, but a biased one. I believe the scores posted. Anything else needs to be considered opinion.
  12. Volleyball is the most popular girls sport in KY, according to the KHSAA
  13. In this case, nothing changed. But I think bringing in great coaches and promoting a positive culture can make a big difference at any school. Wouldn't that start with the AD? yes, swimming - I just looked that up. amazing record.
  14. I was going by what I saw on KHSAA, or thought I saw. You are more familiar with the situation than I am. Request a moderator to change it.
  15. top- Monday 10/23 Highlands v Dixie NDA v Cooper bottom- Tuesday 10/24 Ryle v Beechwood St. Henry vs NCC Semi's 10/25 Final 10/26 NDA going for 11th straight Region 9 title is amazing. That's 2 Athletic Directors, 3 different Head Coaches and almost 3 complete (frosh>sr) classes turning over. Can't think of another sport or school with that turnover and those results.
  16. and by virture of that loss, NCC draws St. Henry in first round at Regional. Ouch. At least Highlands gets Dixie, a team they split with, in the first round - with winner facing NDA (presumably)
  17. That would seem to be a good State draw for the Region 9 winner
  18. I was making more of a general point about BGP across all forums...not a lot of pro-NDA posters on BGP across all forums, which means it's mostly "fans" of other schools. News Flash: NDA wins a lot in many sports. So maybe pro-NDA people don't feel a need to post, it's not like NDA doesn't get noticed. NDA sports in general have a huge target on their back in NKY. It's the one team everyone wants to beat. When NDA loses, it's been my experience that it gets posted really quick.
  19. Pandas win. The Dixie loss was perfect to refocus the team.
  20. Versus first 5 weeks of 2016, ESPN/Monday Night Football up 6%, CBS up 6%, FOX and NBC/Sunday Night Football both report up.
  21. I'm always surprised by people who don't understand the First Amendment.. Freedom of Speech refers to speaking out against the Government, the right to protest and assemble, that sort of thing (NFL players for example) It DOES NOT mean you can say/post/write anything you want while working at a private business. If a Wal-Mart greeter told everyone to go to hell as they entered the store, they would be fired. They are not protected by the First Amendment.
  22. I don't know what's funny or not, just relaying the history of the series, which shows a complete dominance by NDA. It's now 11 in a row and outscored 36-8. And NDA has had some major season ending injuries to first team all-stars of their own during that 11-0 run. So I don't worry about how teams look, or what calls were not made, or who is hurt - I just look at the scores.
