Runcible Owl

I've been around Cov Cath's running programs for over fifty years and seen many firsts - Regional and State Cross Country and Track champions in the 60's, 70's 80's ... This is extremely gratifying. Well done Coach Mosher and the Long Blue Line.

Congratulations to your son; that's a big deal. In previous years the meets were sponsored by the coaches association (KTCCCA). This year's official status is something the T&F community has been pushing on for many years. In the way back, the Mason-Dixon Games at Freedom Hall were the yearly de facto championships, though no team scores were kept.

This is the first year the KHSAA has sanctioned Indoor Track and Field as a State championship sport. You should look into it, your Tigers picked up KHSAA boys and girls State runners-up trophies today in the 1A meet. 🔴

🏆 CCH | The Norton Center, Louisville. Colonel athletes scored in 11 events to provide superbly balanced scoring and a 15 point margin of victory over second place Mercer County on Saturday. Cov Cath was led by the meet's leading scorer, senior Ethan Long. Long (60 and 200 dashes) and junior Will Sheets (1500 and 800 runs) placed second in two events. The 4 x 400 Relay team of Luke Meagher, Garrett Gallagher, Jake Heitker, and Hank Smith picked up silver medals as well in the day's final event. 🔵 Congratulations gentlemen! 🔵 Full team scoring and event results can be found at the link below ~ milesplit.live/meets/594082/events

Thank you for the assist on updates @FrankNicodemus. Looks like Massey's "trending" prediction for the game was a good one. The PaNDA's end their season with a 20-10 record (8-5 in Region 9). The Bluebirds are now 22-8 (11-4 R9). Highlands advances to the 6:30 Friday semifinal vs. Dixie Heights/Ryle. 📝 Final stats from Evan Dennison ~

Current Ratings (through Feb 25): #17 Notre Dame 6.90 #34 Highlands 6.45 I'm reading the Professor as having it both ways ~ "Season (Total)" favors PaNDAs 50-42 "Single Game Simulation (Trending)" favors Bluebirds 36-31. 🤔
