I went to the game, and even if you were not a die hard T or X fan, this was a flat out excellent HS baseball game to watch.

I'm guessing the 3 seniors got together and said, "The adults will HATE these... SO LET'S GET THEM!"

The top 5 or 6 teams in KY would all go 34-0. If a boys HS team has a few D1 players, they would dominate the WNBA. WAAAYYYY to quick and athletic.

Levitch with 14; Thienaman (sp.?) 11, all in the second half

All right DeSales!

H played tough. First half was a legit tie. T stepped it up in second half. H's bench is thinner (and shorter)

With T & Ballard on the other side and a home opener, this year set up well for X. May have looked ahead.

Oops. I was one minute slow on my post

I heard X was up by 15 or 18 earlier in the game. True?

He plays like he's 6'8".

Dishonorable mention.

Kind of a ho-hum game. Tuesday with Hoptown should be a good one!

5,920 on the home side.

Seriously I hope they find someone who is A) good, and B) will stick around. A powerful X team is good for all of Jefferson Co. football. Just look at how a strong H team has (real or perceived) helped raise he level of high school football in Louisville over the last few years. Four years ago it was T and everyone else; it's much more fun when there are at least a half dozen teams in the discussion.

And now for the barb: I hear Browning Nagle is available.

This is an awesome first post!

I heard from a fair source that charges would be filed. And I saw pretty much the entire melee (I didn't want to open the first post with it). It got really, really bad really, really fast. Parent and player were out of line 100%. It was a meltdown.

Rocks led by 30 at the end of the third quarter and rested starters in the 4th. Spalding had 14 pts. & 11 boards; Thiememan with 13 points; Gray led the Dragons with 15.

Glad T won, but as I said in another thread: X doesn't have but maybe one or two guys that could be in T's rotation and they still play them very tough every time they meet. That is what a rivalry is all about.

This was tackled (pun intended) in another thread. New T A.D. seems to be mending a lot of fences. I for one will keep my fingers crossed.

Not sure where Levitch went to grade school. I think 2 of the first 3 subs on Ts team are CSAA kids also. So basically 5 or 6 of the top 8, is that correct? How many of X's top 8 are CSAA kids? (I honestly don't know.) Granted Spalding is a top tier talent, but T is better than X even without him. Heck I don't think X has a player on their team any better than Levitch, Thieneman, Stafford, or Ramser, or maybe even Murphy. OK maybe Burgess, but I don't know if he is a CSAA kid or not. Having said that, every time I have ever seen X take the floor they have played VERY WELL. Coach Szabo is outstanding, but I have been more than impressed with Klein.

A win is a win is a win against your rival, though the game was pretty uneventful. First time ever that the all time series has been tied as X won something like 14 of the first 16 meetings between the two schools and T has won like 13 of the last 17 to pull even. Rocks may have a chance to take the all-time series lead for the first time ever next week if they meet X in the LIT!

Regardless of who the ten opponents are, I have to believe that the staff is thrilled to have everything set 2 years in advance. Once T got really, really good it seemed like everyone had to wait until the last minute every year to know what the schedule was going to be. I actually thought they might end up doing like X and pay an opponent to play only at Marshall Stadium.

I bet this was one heck of a game to watch!
