Last night I finally made it to Edmundson Stadium home of the Stebbins Indians to catch one of their home against a very athletic West Carrollton team. The home crowd filled nearly 95% of their seats, while the Pirates crowd I am estimating was close to 65% full. Both sides got very loud at times, […]

Carmichaels Class of: 2022 Positions: QB, RB, FS, SS, CB, OLB Height & Weight: 6’1″ 175lb Being a lefty do you think it gives you many advantages as a quarterback? It’s more of a disadvantage. The receivers seem to complain that they are more used to the rotation of a right-handed thrower. In watching […]

What has turned into one of the places I really enjoy going to Willard R. Stargel Stadium was the scene of the heat-shortened game played between the Bethel Tate Tigers and Cincinnati College Prep Academy Lions. The Tigers defense stole the show with a dominating performance. Unofficially they held the Lions offense to a […]

This was the first game of the Don Franklin Scottie Bowl, at Glasgow high school in Glasgow, Kentucky. This was my first time here also the first time see LaRue County play.

Last night’s game forty-three this year took me to Erie, Pa. Veterans Memorial Stadium. First, I must say that the stadium itself is a must-see place to take in a game but the street parking takes away from the overall experience. The game was very competitive when all was said and done but never in […]
