Yes, KHSAA sent out an email last week saying they were short of refs and needed some schools to change.

I believe they have about 35 freshmen and sophomores on the entire roster, which is a really good number. The Central junior class is not very big. Super win for the Yellowjackets!

This is a perfect example of why comparing scores in high school football can make you go crazy GRC loses 9-7 to Bryan Station Oldham County loses 42-21 to Bryan Station And Oldham County whips GRC 45-22.

Um, the mud game looked like fun. This looks dreadful. Ugh

That looks like so much fun!!!

Props to Eastern for playing the Shamrocks. As I understand it from some friends, Trinity played a bunch of sophomores and a handful of freshmen. Eastern played a whole lot of juniors. But again props to the Eagles.

This one will be ugly! X 49, PRP 7

As I expected, PRP just not ready for any team close to an elite level.

Very disappointing loss. St. Mary's is a really nice high school football team but the Rocks should have won. Young kids have grown up - maybe not enough just yet.

Trinity will play Eastern next week Open week and then Marshall County in the playoffs. Eastern and Ballard play unless Eastern beats Trinity

Manual pretty easy IMO Crimsons 35, Panthers 14

A lot of his lack of big games is that he's been injured so much this season. Was out most of the game last week at Ballard for injury also. Let's hope he's healthy.

Congrats X! Butler used to be a solid program. They have fallen fast. The Bears have scored just 22 points since the opening-week win over Western (20-12). And this is a Butler team with 17 seniors - which is not a terrible number. I believe they only have about 12 or 13 sophomores in the whole program also. Not looking good for the future.

Had a feeling this wouldn't be close but seems like turnovers made it even larger of a margin. Just don't think Manual has the linemen on either side of the ball to compete with Male or X.

Will post more later. I need a drink (or two) now. Was really a terrible football game to watch. Trinity had seven holding penalties called on the offense. I counted 145 yards of positive yardage that was erased by penalties. Will take the win! Hope the young man from Ballard who was taken off in an ambulance is OK. Looked like he got caught up on the edge of a pile and hit by his own guy.

I see St. X winning easier than most expect. IMO Manual's OL won't be good enough. St. X 28, Manual 14

Dang, didn't realize Jadairion Smith has 15 tackles for a loss and 12.5 sacks on the season. That's super impressive in six games. Trinity will win but I think it's closer than many expect. Rocks 31-20

I agree. And I admit I know nothing about this game and how it played out. Have just always said to score more than 80 in a high school football game you have to be trying to get that many points. Just my opinion.

A whole bunch of baby Rocks growing up right before our eyes! Congrats to coach Cobb on a huge first win.

Wow! A little stunned. I'll admit I have not see the baby Rocks play yet but have not heard good things. And all I have heard from the St. X folks at church is how this was the best freshman team in a long, long time on Poplar Level Road. Seems like all my intel was wrong. Only thing I know is the Trinity QB is the son of former Rock standout Craig Desensi. He was the QB that took over when Jeff Brohm graduated and Craig was a really, really good QB.

No reason to push the panic button just yet. St. Rita was big and very well coached. I was super impressed with what I saw from them; when I watched warm-ups I was afraid it was going to be 35-7 or something like that. Muffed punt snap for a TD for Rita and a TD called back for T. Lots of sophomores getting a lot of reps. The Rocks are #3 in 6-A right now and I don't think anyone will move above them; will have a shot in the end if they don't get too banged up. LaSalle next - yikes!

I would think they were talking about the #1 program in Kentucky maybe? And just said team. 😉

I think you are spot on Guru The gap is not as large as it was last year with Trinity and the rest of the field - but not too far off that. My top 10 1. Male 2. Male second unit 3. X 4. Trinity 5. Ballard 6. Manual 7. Dixie Heights 8. Henderson County 9. Bryan Station 10. Daviess County

Wow! Coach Jones is really, really good. KCD has come so far. Excited for those guys. What a weekend - the KCD soccer team beat St. X last night for the first time in 40 years.

Ugh, hope Micah Carter is OK But saw the clip and like TP said didn't look good. Hate it for that kid.
