Not even...

Nichols had offers from many bigger D-1 schools; Michigan State, Arkansas State, Eastern Kentucky and Western Kentucky. Morehead seems to be the perfect fit for Matt.

???

I am personaly friends with both Cody and Matt, and both of them said they are going to be dual players in College.

Lubrano only had 56 at bats... You had to have atleast 60 at bats to have your name listed. Hes a stud.

Brice Smallwood of Dixie Heights. A tall lefty pitcher, that throws about 80- 83mph, with great off- speed. He was 1- 1 with several relief appearences as a frosh. Joel Lubrano of Dixie Heights. Was pulled up as a frosh last season and hit over .500 with 20 some RBIs in only 15 games, not including tourney play.

I play football and say many Dixie games last season... They have alot of senior experience coming back with Nichols(P, IF), Johnson(CF), Dettmer(SS), Cahill(P, 1B), Bricking(RF). Also all the young guns that saw alot of varsity last season, the frosh Popham(C, SS), sophmore Lubrano(C, 1B, DH), and two lefty soph P Stansberry, and Smallwood. Smallwood, I believe, is playing for Walt Terrel's summer team.

Beechwood has a very strong team this year. They should definately be a solid back up for Cody.

Elliot will also be pitching in relief. Nichols will be pitching and playing 3B.

Matt Nichols, Dixie Heights, will be signing with Morehead State University around that time. Also, Cody Elliott, Beechwood, will be signing with Ball State University.

Motivation is definatly not a problem for Dixie. Yes Ryle may have more of a reason to win then Dixie due to the playoffs, but a quick question, WHY WOULD DIXIE WANT TO LOSE ON SENIOR NIGHT? Point proven, Dixie has enough motivation to get the job done

If it's anything like the BC-Dixie game it will be a great shoot out. Hopefully it will go in the favor of the Colonels, we need a quality win under our belts, Good luck to both teams

I believe a few years ago Ryle came out fired up, ready to play, and expected to win big. Dixie shut them out to go on and win districts, I believe that Dixie will want some revenge from last year.

It's senior night at Dixie, coming off a big win, and lots to prove. I like our odds. Dixie-24 Ryle-14 Big win, but otherwise meaningless, younger guys need to get in to help out and also get some reps. Dixie wins, controls the game in almost every aspect. LETS BUILD SOME MOMENTUM BOYS!!!

Dixie wins! I think the colonels will rebound and get set for a strong postseason run. Molony goes off and Dixie's d will hold Farris in check for the most part. Dixie wins 24-14

Dixie is getting ready to get thier motors in full gear I feel. These next couple weeks until the playoffs Dixie will be getting better at every aspect. I feel by the time CCH rolls around they will be in there prime, just in time for the Bluebirds. Dixie pulls off the upset (based on the first half they can move it agianst the Birds, just need a full game) against Highlands. Then goes to state to win it all. Prove me right boys, it starts with conner this week!!!

Yes, Rudder I agree with you there, Wolfe and Raliegh will definatly be the future at Dixie. Wolfe has great athletisism and will make tackles everywhere, Raliegh is like a torpedo (splchk) he will launch himself at you.

Sorry if this is already up, but i've looked for a linebacker thread and cant seem to find one, so here it is. My favorites so far- Highlands-55-Stein Dixie-52-Benson I haven't seen all the teams in person yet so there are a few to start off with, lets here it!

Well let's hope this week that EJ and Bricking follow-up with an encore performence. If this happens the running game would open up alowing the blocking to be "easier." Dixie does have size, but Highlands quickness will be a very good test. I think the Colonels (especially since its homecoming weekend) will be up to the challenge. IMO they will be the difference in the game, like most games, but this one more importantly. When the birds blitz, we need to cover for as long as we can. Bricking, Dettmer, and Moloney will lead us to victory, but the boys in the trenches need to show them the way.

I just don't understand how people don't think Dixie doesnt have the one of the best lines. All the pre talk before the Beechwood game was how big and bad the tigers o-line was, Dixie's was just as big and bad. Dixie has some monsters and a couple of them can move suprisingly well. They IMO are definatly one of the top o-lines in the nky. Now boys lets go out and prove me right by letting marty run all over the Bluebirds secondary. 1...2...3... DIXIE PRIDE!!! as one of the coaches quoted "Highlands tradition vs. Dixie PRIDE"

Dixie WILL be ready this week. They have the line on both ways to do the job against Highlands, and certainly have the passing game to score quickly. For the colonels to win they will have to score points in the first half, which so far doesnt seem to be a problem, then Moloney needs to take over and control the clock. If Dixie can keep the ball away from Highland's offense for as long as possible, they can win. They just need to be around in the 3rd quarter, then they will build confidence. Should be a great game. Winner should get homefield advantage in the playoffs, I know Dixie doesn't want to leave thier homefield to play at Highlands. GO DIXIE!!! Dixie wins- 27- 24 Not on a last second field goal, time will run out on the birds.

I am going to take Campbell in a shootout, Saurbeck (spell check) I feel will keep Farris in check most of the night. Camels win 34- 27

I see Dixie's defense getting there first zippo for this year. Dixie wins 17-0

I was really hoping Dixie would pull this win out. Both teams played excellent and i give the Beechies props for playing the whole game when Dixie had all the momentum. Great game for any fan to watch. Good luck to both teams.

I feel that this will be a great game untill Boone's Farris takes off in the fourth quarter. Boone wins 24- 14.
