Newport Central Catholic at Covington Holy Cross Predictions/Updates
No need to throw with those 2 RBs.

Fans at games
All Diocese of Covington schools (Cov Cath, Brossart, Holy Cross, NCC) are only allowing 2 people per player in stands. Not sure what public schools in NKY are doing.

Newport Central Catholic - 2020 Schedule
Made my daughter text one of the starting OL. He said Malaki Herndon is the starting QB.

Newport Central Catholic - 2020 Schedule
Don't really know. The kids haven't been visiting due to covid so my information line is down. I have all girls so I have to interrogate the boys when they stop by.

Either Malaki Herndon or Dom Morgan.

Newport Central Catholic - 2020 Schedule
The CC and Cooper games were scheduled before Sept 11th and those games were cancelled as were all games on those dates. NCC already had Beechwood scheduled end of the season so guess Cooper wanted to play Ryle or Dixie as a postseason warm up instead of NCC so NCC added Holmes. Why did CC not want to play NCC on Oct 2nd? No clue. Or Did NCC drop CC to have a bye? No clue. Hopefully the schedules get back to normal next fall.

Newport Central Catholic - 2020 Schedule
Guys the original schedule had Campbell County, Cooper and Roger Bacon on it. The schedule now is a result of Covid cancellations not ducking big schools.

Highlands 81 Newport Central Catholic 77 (OT)
I hope so. The gym there is awful. Nice new floor but it's lipstick on a pig in that gym.

Do you think we got the 4 best teams in Class 1A?
Why do you think the jury is still out on Beechwood? They're in the semis. NCC very well could have beaten Holy Cross it was a close game they were not overvalued at all.

Class 1A Playoffs: #2 Newport Central Catholic at #8 Louisville Holy Cross
I don't think NCC losing this would be an upset at all. They look even to me. I'll take NCC because I want them to win but won't be surprised if they don't.

Toughest places to play?
Never really could hear the crazies as a player on the field. Didn't notice them in football until I was out of HS. Basketball is a different story with them though.

Open Class Championship
Six classes in KY is ridiculous so this would be better. I would be happy if they just went back to 4 and I'd be OK with 5. I agree that everyone has to play in their proper class though.

Toughest places to play?
Honestly I guess I'd pick Highlands because you were close to the stands, they had the canon (which is gone) and there used to be a track around the field and I swear they tried to tackle you on it on purpose. Besides Cov Cath it's the only stadium that sticks out in my memory. Only reason Cov Cath sticks out is because we played day games and it was hot other than that nothing was special about it.

At least we don't have to put up with that damn canon anymore.

Bishop Brossart 36 Paris 0
Brossart is a better team than Nicholas County. There were some really bad calls that went against Brossart in the 1st meeting that changed the course of the game. Hopefully they get their 2nd playoff win next week.

Bishop Brossart 20 Pendleton County 14
Sorry but Dayton, Ludlow, HC and Bellevue are cupcakes. If they want to win in the playoffs they're going to have to play better out of district than that. They may get their tails kicked but they'll be a better team for it. They did play Newport which was decent this year. There's Lloyd and New Cath who are both good small school competition. Honestly there's no reason to not play New Cath every year.

Bishop Brossart 20 Pendleton County 14
Until they consistently win and play a good schedule not a bunch of cupcakes they won't take players from anyone.

Newport Central Catholic 17 Beechwood 14
No clue. My guess is yes but limited since they will be playing a team they should route.
-
Newport Central Catholic 17 Beechwood 14
If they played next week Jefferson would play and it would change things. Turnovers and penalties are part of the game. The teams to me appear to be pretty equal.

Which schools play varsity starters in JV games?
My sophomore year I became a starter after our 2nd game when the guy ahead of me got hurt. They made me keep playing JV to get extra practice. After a few games I went into the coaches office and told them I didn't think it was fair for me to keep playing JV when we had guys who never saw the field. Apparently they saw my point and I never played JV again. We also didn't allow seniors to play JV.

Newport Central Catholic 49 Ludlow 10
Ludlow turned the ball over 3 times in 1st quarter. NCC was up 35-0 end of 1st quarter. NCC took their foot off the gas after that and cruised to the easy win.
