St. Xavier Ranked 23rd In Nation
bluegrassfootball replied to Pat Dad's topic in KY Baseball (High School)
the national polls can be iffy. teams like prp who could possibly be better than a team like st x but have not had national exposure could slide under the national radar. however i will say BaseballAmerica is one of the most reliable national rankings along with USA Today. great to see kentucky teams getting national exposure -
ross-lca, maronde-lex cath, webb-heath not necessarily in that order. these 3 are leaps and bounds about all pitchers in the state. all 3 will make great college\pro pitchers. all 3 are projected in the first few rounds of the draft. maronde struck out 17 tates creek batters in 8 innings hitting 93 mph on the radar gun 5 or more times and was consistantly in low 90s. he is the most dominant in my opinion and has the better upside than the others. ross also has a very high upside. havent seen much of webb so i cannot account for him

i agree, however it is never too early to rank but it may be too early to judge teams by the rankings. take powerhouse teams such as dunbar and lex cath. both lost a lot of talent last year and that has shown for both teams but they both also have some big wins. teams like those 2 who have lost talent are still trying to figure out their lineup and come district play many teams like that will be in full stride. also look at schools less known for baseball such as anderson co who i hear scored 58 runs in a game which is impressive no matter who they played. there are also some nky teams such as cov cath who have been pretty impressive early but did not make the top 25.

Yes, the catholic coach started 3 freshmen and benched the majority of his starters. -

Beechwood made it to the state championship in 2006. They made a great run with an underrated team. -
Best High School Baseball Team in Kentucky History
bluegrassfootball replied to ukfan14's topic in KY Baseball (High School)
The 2006 Lexington Catholic team was very talented and won the state championship and was ranked #4 in the nation. The 7 or 8 juniors on that team were even more talented in 2007 but the team definetly under achieved and were possibly one of the most talented teams in Ky history although they underachieved. I also know Harrison Co has had many very talented teams in the last 20 or so years. -
Sweet 16 all tournament team
bluegrassfootball replied to Eta Rho's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
Holmes's record being the best in the state just shows they did not play the competition that Lex Cath and Mason County did this year. Catholic and Mason both went to out of state tournaments and lost to good teams. I'm not taking away from Holmes's season but I don't understand how a better record means that much. -

Lexington Catholic 79 Bryan Station 63
bluegrassfootball replied to gswilder's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
I don't think there is one person who is the glue to this team. When they are firing on all cylinders they are pretty hard to stop. Everyone seems to have a role which they have accepted and each person does their job. A team that is fun to watch. Sidenote, Catholic went undefeated in the 11th REGION! Pretty impressive. -
Franklin County will be a good team, but i dont think they have a better combo than Botkin and Sanford at Catholic, Phares and Gywun at Scott County, or Johnson and Hudson at Dunbar. I think they will make noise in the 11th, but at places like Catholic and Scott County even when they are rebuilding they are still darn good. 4th best team in the region.

Top 5 programs in the mountains
bluegrassfootball replied to wideopen's topic in KY Football (High School)
Bell Co is going to be a very solid team this year. They went undefeated in the regular season last year and losing to a very good Lex Cath team in the playoffs. They lose hardly anyone from last years team. They will be the best team in the mountains this year. -

5th Annual All BLUEGRASSPREPS.com Team
bluegrassfootball replied to NamecipS's topic in KY Football (High School)
Looks like a very good team. Best "team" that I have seen so far as far as 1st teamers go. I would have like to see Shane Israel on that list though as atleast an athlete. -
Courier-Journal All State Team
bluegrassfootball replied to CentreRocks's topic in KY Football (High School)
Wow pretty dissapointed in these. I expected alot more. I would take Deuce Finch(2nd), Tim Phillips(2nd) and Shane Israel(HM) over Dustin May and Corey Farris, but thats just me. Random note Lone Oak places 3 on 1st,2nd,3rd team. Lex Cath places 1 on 1st, 2nd, 3rd. I had high hopes for the CJ after seeing the HL's but I think the CJ could be worse. -

How much does he deadlift? -
Top 5 teams in KY...what say you?
bluegrassfootball replied to That's Pat's topic in KY Football (High School)
The only real common denominator in all 3 is Lex Cath (Trinity in a scrim and St X and Highlands in reg season). If I had to put these teams in order you would have to have X and T in a dead tie with Highlands barely coming in 3rd. Even though Highlands went undefeated I still dont believe they could beat a X or T team. 1A. Trinity 1B. St X 3. Highlands (not by much at all though) -

Lexington Catholic 49 Lone Oak 7
bluegrassfootball replied to Birdsfan's topic in KY Football (High School)
Back to the game, LC imo was better in every phase of the game tonight. The defense imo is the best defense to ever play at LC. They gave up an average of 6.6 points in the playoffs. That is amazing if you think about it. The game plan tonight was bring the house every play, and thats what we did. Winston Guy is an absolute beast. Im pretty sure he ended his night with 3.5-4 sacks. I hate to say it, but the defense was the backbone of LC all year. Now to the offense. The offense played very well tonight. Shane Israel was like he always is. I think he is one of the most underrated running backs. He has some offers, but deserves alot more. The only reason he is not being heavily recruited is because of his size, which is crazy. He had nearly 200 yards and 4 Td's despite sitting out the 4th quarter. He ended up being the games MVP which he earned. To both sides of the ball, I believe the game was won in the trenches. The defensive line gave Robinson no time to even check his recievers. The o-line played great as well which really opened up the running game. All in all great game for LC. Lone Oak should keep their heads up because they have nothing to be ashamed about. They had a great season. Anyways im glad we made it here and im glad we are now state champs. Its been fun playing with everyone. -
