Well then, even MC44 is on board . . . This is the way.

I hope the St. Xavier community values your support as much as Covington Catholic's regrets losing it.

What if we told you St Xavier beat Central 105-50 in their District game? You took issue with Cov Cath taking down Holmes in the 35th three weeks ago in similar fashion. ? bluegrasspreps.com/covington-catholic-101-holmes-43-35th-district-semifinals Checking the beat downs Holmes put on the 9th in that thread from the '89/90 season, including a 111-63 pasting of the Colonels wouldn't change your mind would it?

Showing up at halftime for a game at Park Hills between *checks notes* the two eventual Regional finalists and not finding a parking spot can radicalize some people. Maybe Cov Cath should start providing exclusive valet parking and reserved seating. ?‍♂️
