Paris lost to Mason Co. 27-7.

The comments by APNW, may lead people to think that Newport is still the better of the two teams (I know that is not what was said, but could be interpreted that way). Bellevue outplayed Newport. Could it be the interceptions were caused by good pressure and good coverage?

Congrats to Dayton and Coach Deaton on his first W. I though Holmes would be able to use speed against the Devils, but was wrong. I was really impressed with the speed of the Dayton and Brummett (sp?) runs the ball hard.

I look for the huge Newport line to dominate Bellevue's D. If Arkansas is the QB, it will be tough to contain him. Great athlete.

I have to go with the large school over the small school in this one.

For sure, all these teams are very evenly matched. Last years games were all close and each squad returns alot. They may not be the "marquee" matchups that some fans look for, but as far as intensity and passion you wont find many better games.

SORRY!!!!!!!!! THAT WAS A HUGE TYPO!!!!!!!!:scared: I hope he recovers quickly with no side effects!!!!!

I hope he recovers quickly with side effects. But I am curious, I thought that full contact is not allowed until full pads on Aug. 1. Can anybody elaborate?

I really does become a culture. I have seen it carry over from the local pee-wee team. They lose on a regular basis so when they get to high school, it is not such a big deal to lose.

I saw it last week too. It was a mess. I find it hard to believe that they will be able to use this field. What are thier options? What do the BGP Bermuda experts think about this?

The new CC youth league is a middle school league.

I agree. With many less talented teams, so much rides on the mental part of the game. Bellevue, Dayton and Ludlow may be fired up at the start of the game, but as soon as one play goes against them, that is sometimes enough for them to start saying "here we go again". With teams such as Beechwood and NCC who more often than not, they do not have to rely on mental toughness to beat less talented teams

OUCH

Holy Cross received some money from the Bengals. But that was to upgrade their practice facility. They play their home games at Holmes.

Paul would be better suited an O-coordinator or just a QB coach. He couldnt last at Bellevue or Etown. What could he do differently to do well at Newport?

It only floods once every three or four years. Still too risky for turf.

BGB, Gamer wasnt talking about the new bermuda. That is in a different thread. He was refering to your typo.

Buckler is not the new Adams. No where near as fast. Tough little kid though.

That sounds like a Tom Stellman quote, when/has Conner ever played Bwood?

Now that is funny!

The plan is for this to also include Walton Verona.

Isnt Shawnee open now?

The slow pitch schools are trying their best to keep their sport alive. The schools have even gone so far as to say that they will raise the money themselves, pay the insurance and have their own KY state championship tourney. The catch is that the trophy will not have KHSAA on it.

Very tough physical game. Bodies were hitting the floor all night. Some not by choice either. The refs tightened it up a little in the second half though after talking to the captains.
