Evan is having a good season just over 400.AT 6"4lefthanded Evan should be one of the

top pitcher in the area his Senior year Evan is a very young Sophomore just

turned 15 should be a Freshmen he skipped a grade.

Great kid, great parents. He has a bright future regardless of sports. I wish him all the best.

I heard reports of Angel ending up at Highlands

Oh well. Hope it works out for everyone.

This is a CCH thread, correct?

Yes, just never heard CCH regarded as "the hill". I realize the school is in Park Hills. Tomato, tomahto, no biggy.

Spring ball has started. Heard there are 2 new coaches. Any other updates from the Hill?

You talkin NCC or CCH?

How is Evan Molitor doing at Lloyd? Pretty good ballplayer.

They're also playing a hellacious schedule. While winning is the ultimate object of every game, as long as they're competing and learning, they'll be a serious contender in the 9th.

What about one of the old Cardinals like Larry Wilson or Dan Dierdorf? They also had a nice two way player named Roy Green. Not sure if they ever made playoffs in late 60s or 70s.

I've often found Archie's "greatness" on the field to be highly dubious.

Fair point.

Hope this isn't true anout Angel. Had so much potential 2 years ago. I will see what I can find out.

Yeah, whatever. Good rumor fodder for those that revel in that bull sugar. Hope things work out best for all parties involved. If he does leave, it'll be interesting to see where he lands.

Archie Manning?

You are correct. My apologies. I was looking st KHSAA score board on my phone and it can be hard to see everything. The loss I was referring to was the 2013 season. I missed where last year they played 3 times with Highlands taking the third. Since the 2001 season, Highlands is now 2-23 against Cov Cath (I'm pretty sure these numbers are correct, but as I've proven, I've been wrong before). But to Highlands credit. They have the more recent regional title.

How dare you be off by a game or...gulp...maybe two...

Regardless, two fine programs. HHS should have a dangerous pitching staff in the postseason. They are also playing a strong schedule.

Meyer is an idiot!

:laugh:

Oh the irony...

Yes, and teams had to play twice on Saturday. That was dumb.

I love the Saturday Night final, but I agree. I understand the AAU culture, but, if you have the ability to gives kids a chance to play the biggest game of their life, on the biggest stage, with at least a night's sleep, why not do it? Start on Tuesday or keep as is.

Excuse me, wasn't it a NCC parent flipping off kids last week?

Fair point, but if the tweets are really coming from CCH kids (which I have no idea either way), then that stinks.

BTW - parents from rival high schools flipping off the CCH cheering section is not a new phenomenon.

But hey, I guess CCH deserved it. Horrible human beings at 1600 Dixie Highway - incapable of any class or decorum.

Brilliant!

Are we surprised? NO. About what I expected to hear about. Starts from the top down.

For someone that throws a tantrum, virtually every time HHS is criticized on BGP, you sure like to dish it out. Knuckle head behavior is not the norm at CCH. Of course, it does happen and it is disappointing when it does. On the flip side, there are so many good things done on a daily basis by members of the CCH community. I think the "top" at CCH is just fine.

To the other posters that believe that the rest of NKY roots against CCH - what else is new? You're breaking my heart.

Congrats to NCC on a great season and as a proud alum of CCH, I apologize for any legitimate social media idiocy posted by members of the CCH community. I know kids will be kids, but they know better.

I answered both because I know Fort Thomas kids.

 

It was obviously fun for Ben, Eric, Brian, and Logan. Nothing like winning the ninth region championship.

 

Fun for Highlands kids also - to see their friends win the tournament. These kids have grown up together in Fort Thomas. Played sports with and against each other since they were very young. Families live and work in the community together. Congrats to the Weyer, Anderson, and Neff families. Keep the fun coming.

Fair enough. Best of luck to the Breds this week.

Honestly, has it not been said for at least the last 2 years if not 3 that this is the year the Colonels get the Birds?

I understand your point - you just seem to be particularly opportunistic lately with taking shots at CCH, whether it be hoops or football. But, not a big deal. Many of those statements over the past 2-3 years have come from non-CCH people, that frankly, seem to be looking to do nothing but stir the pot. No one can dispute the results on the field. But hey, the journey of a 1,000 miles starts with the first step. HHS is top dog and CCH has some nice pieces upon which to build. Hopefully, that speaks to a great future in the rivalry, with a bit more balance.

Both.

Again, congrats to NCC - they were the better team and deserved to win. As for Highlands, whatever. Best of luck Birds.

CCH will be facing that gauntlet of a schedule again. Will the CCH fans start getting restless with Coach Eviston if they sit at 0-4 again? I think there is going to be a lot of pressure on this team. Eviston is a heck of coach. There appears to be a lot of talent. That can be bad if the results aren't there.

Any perceived pressure is contrived. Everyone at CCH knows that Eviston is a good coach. He's doing a great job. CCH is lucky to have him.

Seems like we heard that last year and the year before that and the year before that and the well you get the picture now.

Strong work. You're on a roll.

This was a fun night of basketball for the Ft. Thomas kids!

Highlands kids or NCC kids from Ft. Thomas?

JOAT - I'll rephrase part of my earlier statement, because the fact is, I have no idea whether or not someone tweeted, nor do I have the time or desire to investigate. However, I find it unlikely that a CCH player would have done so before the game.

CCH lost a hard fought game to an opponent that was simply better and deserving of the region crown. I wasn't at the game, but it's my understanding, based on listening to it and reading the accounts on BGP, that both teams exhibited class. My guess is that when your son was injured at CCH, you and he were afforded the same class while he was being examined.

Be happy for Ben Weyer and for the other kids you know on that team - they deserved to win.

Congratulations to NCC. Good luck in Lexington.

Wait a minute, there were "tweets"? I thought that Ruthsatz put the clamps on that? I to have heard there was stuff said and it reminded me so much of what happens during the football season and lo and behold we see the same result.

Nice pot shot - classic passive aggressive bull sugar. I find it extremely hard to believe Ruthsatz would allow anything like that.

For the record, the result was not the same, because Highlands was nowhere to be found last night.

Let's see if the Birds get within 50 next year.
