HIGHLANDS, BEECHWOOD BRING HOME KY. TITLES
• Highlands wants to be national champs
LOUISVILLE — It's time to dream new dreams. For a Highlands football team approaching dynasty status, state titles may soon no longer satisfy.
Bluebirds defense allowed 10 points, scored 14
“Offense gets the glory, but defense wins the games,” Highlands junior defensive end Ben Scott said. “And our defense is amazing.”
14th title delights Highlands faithful
LOUISVILLE — When Highlands and its fans head from Fort Thomas to old Cardinal Stadium for the state Class AAA football championship the first weekend in December, the result is usually a very large family reunion.
• BEECHWOOD WINS 7TH TITLE IN '90S
LOUISVILLE — History doesn't sneak up on Beechwood. Before the clock expired Friday, the Tigers were already unpacking boxes of sweatshirts which read, “Beechwood: Team of the Decade.”
Yeagle confuses Hancock Co. with two QB's
LOUISVILLE — Steve Spurrier, he's not. Mike Yeagle is the polar opposite of the flashy Florida coach. But Yeagle used a Spurrier-type strategy Friday to help Beechwood keep Hancock County off balance.
Town turns out for big game
LOUISVILLE — Much of Fort Mitchell appeared to be at Cardinal Stadium Friday to watch Beechwood win its eighth Class A state football title.
