I'll be the first to admit I know very little about soccer. However, maybe 1 or 2 of these local players ever play in the Olympics in the next 30 years. That's if 1 or 2 are really lucky! My guess is that very few ever even have the opportunity to play 4 years with a fully paid Division 1 scholarship. Go play for your school with your friends. If you're any good, the college coaches will find you. Save your money and put it in a 529 plan. I feel like these soccer places are just a money maker selling a dream. Chances are, the only way you ever make a living with soccer, is getting a job doing soccer training and you start selling the dream.

The lead was at 9 mid 3rd qtr when Brossart missed 3's on 2 straight possessions that could've cut it to 6. The Camels had to work, but the 10-0 start made their night less difficult.

Based on a few others opinions and then looking at stats, could it be Highlands needs to put more emphasis on defense to win?

If this score is accurate and everyone played, then no progress has been made in the revitalization of the Highlands program in the last 3-4 seasons.

He doesn't know what he doesn't know. Hopefully some of that gets addressed moving forward.

Yes

On a serious note. I thought coming in that Covcath had a chance to win this game. Scott Co has an impressive offense, but I thought their defense was suspect against Highlands. Highlands gave Scott Co. a much better game than what they gave Covcath. I look for Covcath to host Bowling Green in the semi-finals.

Yes. They always have been imo.

They could use more size on D for run support on the edges.

I think Covington Catholic wins this game. Scott County doesn't have much of a defense and is one dimensional on offense. Highlands had them on the ropes in the 4th qtr with the lead and the ball and fumbled twice. And we all know Highlands isn't considered a good team.

Is it really that far? Probably about the same as going to Grant County. More teams should look to Ohio to find quality games like this one.

Surprising score. Didn't Highlands beat West Jessamine 6-0? West Jess had to have been Panda fans last Saturday.

There's photos floating around that clearly show the Highlands player was not offsides and the goal should've stood. Bad call imo that shouldn't have been made by an out of position side judge.

Maybe not, but at least they're finally trying something new. If they made just a couple defensive stops this year there was potential to change some outcomes.

Did you even see the game? I'd say both teams were ready and it was an even game. A missed call from being a tie game. Are you suggesting Highlands didn't prepare for the post season with their schedule and NDA did? Both schedules were about as strong as you could make them while still playing the required conference games. Either team could've won and the other teams in the region were a notch below imo. Nda is on an impressive run, but both will be the teams to beat for the foreseeable future.
