Size and athletic ability runs in the family. His dad is Barry Jones. He played at CCH and then at UK.

No doubt that #10 is very talented. Everybody sees the skill players when they stand out. #77 Lucas Jones played offensive tackle and noseguard. Very high IQ and motor. He will be fun to watch for the next 4 years. There are not many freshman that play the way he does.

BOOM! Good luck to the young man!

5'9" and weighs 185...from a very reliable source. He will play some safety on defense.

Pay attention! The fact that Covington Catholic does not have lights has absolutely nothing to do with the good ole folks on Old State Road or Saint James Avenue or the City of Park Hills. The first and only time Covington Catholic asked for permission to get lights, they got it. It was that easy. So do not believe the rumors that the "neighbors" prevented CCH from getting lights.

See post 21. RB finished the story.

You forgot to tell the rest of the story.

Ugly game for the Colonels. Bluebirds pitcher was very good.

Just to be clear...I am not being critical of any portion of what Beechwood is doing. Just putting it out there for discussion.

Pitchers and catchers hate playing on turf. I was just talking to a turf maintenance guy from The Motz Group. His advice was that if you are going with turf for your baseball field to go with dirt on the mound and around homeplate. He said those 2 areas, along with the goalie spot for lacrosse are high maintenance and the most patched areas on any turf field. I believe UC's turf field has dirt mound and homeplate, and maybe around the bases.

Will the mound and homeplate area be turf or dirt?

Will the baseball field have lights?

Nice! Who pitched for both teams? Anybody standout?

Cody, Shrand and Casteel. All of them pitched well. Casteel, the Frosh, was lights out in the 7th. He will be fun to watch for the next 3 years.

Nice polite humble kid. Works hard for everything he gets. Hit a homerun in this game as well. I am a CCH guy, but could not be happier for Brayden Burch!

You heard correct. Who do your summer boys play for?

What is Jarod's last name? Clay Trusty is very solid behind the dish. Beechwood has another freshman catcher that is as good or maybe better in Dylan Doverspike.

Pius was well represented for sure IHM was also well represented this year. At times this year it was an all IHM infield for the Colonels with, Bowman catching Coldiron at 3rd Blank at shortstop Kyle at 2nd Jones at 1st.

Cov Cath beat Boone County. I believe it was 12 to 4. Championship Game is Beechwood vs Cov Cath at 7 at Dixie. Game may be moved up depending on the weather.

I believe Cramer started went 3 innings. Colonels scored 5 in the 1st inning. I was not there, so if that information is wrong please don't shoot me. LOL

Hopefully a Highlands poster can give us the name of their pitcher. He threw a heck of a game and NKY baseball people should learn his name. He is going to give opponents problems for the next 3 years. Great game young man!

Both teams starting pitchers went the distance and were absolutely awsome. Cov Cath had 2 hits and I believe highlands had 1. Sean Casteel pitched for the Colonels and Nolan ??? pitched for the birds. Evan Stallman also had an awesome game catching for the Colonels. He Had 2 strike em out throw em out double plays.

Which is???

Any word on who pitched for both teams?

Covington Catholic defeats Boone County. Covington Catholic plays Highlands Tuesday at 5 at Covington Catholic I believe. Highlands has won the first two meetings this year.
