Hardin County Preps

Lots of offense for sure, not much defense.

The stadium is down in a bowl. There is a cemetery that overlooks the field on the visitors side. You will see Meade County locals parking there to watch the games. They have done a lot of upgrades in the last few years including a turf field 2 years ago as well as a new concession building and new track.

My prediction for this game: Saint Xavier 34 Meade County 14

Meade County is very balanced on offense. QB Cade Scott is a threat thru the air(1080 passing yards), and is also the teams leading rusher. RB Cruz Redmon is also a threat in the backfield. WRs Branson Stull and backup QB Bennett Hobbs are the leading receivers for Meade County. QB Cade Scott was injured in the PRP game and is questionable for the ST X game due to a shoulder injury. This would be a huge loss if he can’t go in this game. He is a great athlete that can make plays with his feet as well as his arm.

Final Bardstown 31 John Hardin 0

Bizarre finish. North Hardin had a 4th down at their own 4 yard line with 6 seconds left in the game. The NH QB ran around in the backfield and was tackled at the 1 yard line. There appeared to be 1 second left but the referees came together and said the game was over. CH head coach Mattingly as well as other coaches and CH fans were screaming at the referees while NH celebrated at midfield. Regardless, Central Hardin let 1 man beat them all night. I do not know the final stats but Boykins had to have over 200 yards on the night, including a 76 yard TD catch from the NH QB who delivered a short pass to Boykins, while being taken to the ground. Boykins took that short pass, broke several tackles, and outran the CH defenders for a TD. Ugly game to watch with tons of penalties on both sides of the ball.
