Johnson Central’s baseball coach is also the principal at the Johnson County Middle School. The head softball coach is also the DPP of the Johnson County School district. In this district it is common to do both.

I was just thinking about the RPI impact of the game. Coming into this game Belfry is 14th in 3A and Johnson Central is 4th in 4A. It looks as if Belfry has little to gain in the RPI and their path is pretty much set even with a win over Johnson Central. Johnson Central still could gain some ground in the RPI with the win over Belfry. With the chance of gaining some ground in the RPI I could see JC really come out in this game trying to prove a point. From what I’m told JC is healthy and should be playing with a full roster. Does anyone know Belfry’s status? I’m hoping it’s an injury free game and both squads take home the gold in December.

Johnson Central is needing a first scrimmage. Does anyone know of any teams that are looking for a scrimmage?

The Danville game will not be played. We have tried for months to get a contract from the people at Danville but never could get one. Danville’s head coach informed us on Monday that they have picked up another team to play on that date. I’ve heard it was Breathitt County but can’t confirm that.

Johnson Central will be playing at Danville week 6. I’m not sure who the week 3 game is against but I do know they are looking for one more game and can play either week 4 or week 5.

Yes they have. A team dropped out of the Bluegrass Bowl leaving Lexington Catholic, Fern Creek and Henry Clay. The fourth team is now Johnson Central. Without swapping the games Johnson Central would’ve played Henry Clay the first two weeks of the season. Johnson Central will play Fern Creek the flowing year in the Bluegrass Bowl.

Week One Johnson Central will play Henry Clay in the Mingua Beef Jerkey Bowl. The other game will be Lafayette and Conner. Week 2 Johnson Central will play Lexington Catholic in the Bluegrass Bowl. Henry Clay will play Fern Creek in the other game of the Bluegrass Bowl.

Henry Clay and Johnson Central will be playing week one.

I hate to spoil all of your fun tomcat 1984 but Coach Love and Coach Matney are actually pretty good friends. In fact Coach Love and Coach Matney talked this year about getting the series revived but the only week Ashland had open then was week 7 and Johnson Central had that week filled with a district opponent Clay County. Ashland has since filled that date with Elizabethtown. So what did Coach Love do? Since he dislikes Coach Matney so much(your words) he turned around and agreed to scrimmage at Jonson Central on August 13th and they’re are playing an home and home series in JV. I’m not sure who is on Ashland’s schedule this year but their schedule is now fill according to Coach Love.

Was told today that Johnson Central contacted North Hardin about playing on 9/24.

It will be tough for a Corbin to get a game with their map numbers being so high. To much of a risk for teams.

Rowan was a red county last week but Ashland still played that game.

Johnson Central will play.

Is the Boyle/Madison Southern game cancelled?

I’m not sure why the RPI has Johnson Central with a record of 4-0-1. We haven’t had a Covid cancellation this year. We couldn’t find a game for week 2 so it was a bye week for us.

I agree for Crittenden it was a no brainer. My comment was directed towards Paintsville for scheduling that long of a trip when they could have driven five minutes to Johnson Central who was also needing a game at that time. The game was originally scheduled at Crittenden County.

I was just told that Lawrence will not be playing Paintsville.

Paintsville could have had a game with a team that was a five minutes away when they scheduled Crittenden County. So common sense was never a part of the process.

Grant Bingham was offered by Virginia Tech this morning.
