Did SK ever get Ponzer involved in the offense at all? It sounded like either the Camels took him away, or SK forgot one of their most important weapons? Looks like the road downstate will go through Boone this year--Not an easy road, although Ryle almost pulled out the upset tonight!!

I don't think this scenerio is at all uncommon, as most of the bigger publics have one or two large feeder middle schools? Up here in NKY that's pretty much the case, and even though the Catholic schools may have multiple feeders, they are mostly rather small (and are K-8 elementary schools as well) in comparison to their county brethern and also lose a lot of kids to the tuition-free public HS's. Not sure you can really "read much" into the number of middle schools feeding a high school??

Did the NCC defense score tonight, or is the "O" starting to really come together?

Guessing Ashland lost due to the lack of response and the late 3rd quarter lead by Station??

Congrats to the young Cougars getting off the winless bubble, especially with a couple of tough games remaining!!

Dominating win for the Camels. How does the seeding work out in NKY 6A? I'm guessing Boone (1) and then Ryle, Campbell & SK all at 2-2.

Anyone have the final on this one?

Boone 24 Ryle 17 8:55 in the 4th

Beechwood--34 Bellevue--8 3rd period

I recall a pretty good one, QB if memory serves, from St. Pius a few years back; and his favorite target was I believe from St. Thomas or St. Phillip!! They were pretty fair in hoops as well as I recall.

How does a soggy field hurt a team that averages about 280 across the front lines, and basically plays "grind it out/smashmouth" football?? :confused:

Isn't that thread a 9th region thread? Maybe they should be merged, as we've got three regions represented up here now??

Does he play hoops? Hopefully he can avoid further injury!!

I've no doubt they will come to play, but facts are facts; and NCC's "D" has shut out four teams, given up 6 & 7 to two others and 18 to one of the best 6A teams in NKY!! In fact no team outside of class 6A has even scored on them!! Lloyd on the other hand is giving up 33/game against a small school schedule?? I don't like Lloyd's chances unless they catch NCC looking ahead to a neighborhood battle with Campbell and their annual showdown with Beechwood for area small school supremacy!!

Are you saying he's going to play next week? That's great news for the Panthers and Jarrett!! Hate to see seniors injured, especially with the year he was having. Best of luck to him the rest of the way and stay healthy!! :thumb:

Good points but ones that can be made about most districts and all classes' rankings!!

I'd throw in Simon Kenton (6A) as well.

All boys--Equates to 1000 co-ed!!

Parents are always free to form AAU, YBO and other teams to get kids experience regardless of what school team they play on. There are tons of tourneys available virtually year-round for middle school age kids as well and no school affiliation is needed!!

Must be a pretty big middle school to feed a rather large high school. I think the issue would be to field multiple teams, as many middle/elementary schools do. The more kids playing at that level, means the more available to develop into good high school contributors. My kid's school (appx. 75 per class coed) fielded four seventh and four eighth grade boy's teams, and 2-3 girl's teams per grade. Several kids from the so-called "B" teams went on to fine HS careers, while some "A" team kids never made the frosh team.

Good point as this district is really up this year, with four teams in Litkenhous' top 20 class A teams, including #'s 1 & 7!!

Just trying to interject a little humor into a rather inflated statement (1500 boys vs. an actual of appx. 500), note the ":D" symbol??

I think you're right, but still a tad of an exaggeration??

CCH has 472 boys per the KSHAA--Must use different math down on the hill????
