ReplyDeleteI would like to know more about what happened to Hoptown. I've been wondering about that for some time.
DeleteThe Central Hardin-Elizabethtown rivalry is ending on a bad note.
ReplyDeleteE-Town should keep playing Central Hardin. Tilghman has been bigger than Mayfield for almost 100 years, and those two schools have played the whole time.
DeleteCadiz's Oldies1480.com classes up the late-morning coffee break with "Wichita Lineman."
ReplyDeleteHere's the WKDZ/WHVO gameplan for this evening ...
DeleteThe Trigg County Wildcats made it two wins in a row last Friday night, as the Cats rolled over Crittenden County 42-21 in the second game of the Kentucky Machine & Engineering David Sadler Bowl. Up next for Trigg County is a trip up the road to Princeton tonight to take on the high flying offense of the Caldwell County Tigers. Caldwell County is coming off back to back wins over Union County and Ohio County, in which the Tigers have scored a total of 101 points. Coverage of Trigg County at Caldwell County will get underway tonight at 6:00 with the Toyota of Hopkinsville Friday Night Blitz on WKDZ 106.5 and wkdzradio.com
A tough night last Friday night for the Fort Campbell Falcons, as they ran into one of the top teams in Class 5-A, in the Warren Central Dragons. Warren Central took control of the game early in the second quarter and never looked back, as they won 58-13. The Falcons will try to rebound this week as they go on the road for the annual Army Bowl game tonight against Fort Knox. Fort Knox comes into the matchup with a record of 1-2, losing last week to Butler County, 28-14. Coverage of Fort Campbell and Fort Knox gets underway at 6:00pm on Oldies 96.5 WHVO and oldies1480.com.
Meanwhile, over at 1490 AM/102.3 FM, WCLU has finished up with its Dave Ramsey broadcast and is now playing a little Eagles in advance of a big, all-caps-worthy U.S. 31-E rivalry: Allen County-Scottsville at Glasgow.
ReplyDeleteTHE GLASGOW SCOTTIE FOOTBALL TEAM PLAYS ITS THIRD STRAIGHT HOME GAME TONIGHT AT HANK ROYSE STADIUM AGAINST ALLEN COUNTY-SCOTTSVILLE. THE SCOTTIES ARE STILL UNBEATEN ON THE SEASON AT 3-0 AFTER DOWNING BARREN COUNTY LAST WEEK, WHILE THE PATRIOTS COME INTO THE CONTEST AT 1-2 AFTER PICKING UP THEIR FIRST WIN AGAINST SOUTH WARREN LAST FRIDAY. JOIN JOE MYERS, LARRY ALEXANDER AND BRUCE TRABUE FOR THE BROADCAST BEGINNING AT 6:30 ON LITE 102.3, WCLU 1490 OR OUR WEBSITE AT WCLURADIO.COM. GAME TIME IS SET FOR 7:00.
BARREN COUNTY IS AT HOME TONIGHT, AS WELL, TAKING ON THE MONROE COUNTY FALCONS. THE TROJANS ENTER THE GAME WITH A 1-2 MARK WHILE MONROE COUNTY IS 2-1 AFTER SUFFERING ITS FIRST LOSS OF THE YEAR LAST WEEK AGAINST WARREN EAST. KICKOFF IS SET FOR 7:00.
IN OTHER HIGH SCHOOL GAMES AROUND THE AREA TONIGHT…CAVERNA TRAVELS TO HART COUNTY; METCALFE COUNTY HOSTS LOGAN COUNTY; EDMONSON COUNTY VISITS HANCOCK COUNTY; WARREN EAST PLAYS AT DAVIESS COUNTY; BOWLING GREEN GOES TO HENDERSON COUNTY; WARREN CENTRAL ENTERTAINS MEADE COUNTY; GREENWOOD IS ON THE ROAD AT FRANKLIN-SIMPSON; SOUTH WARREN WELCOMES RUSSELLVILLE; AND GREEN COUNTY TRAVELS TO LARUE COUNTY.
With a band of storms lurching across Kentucky, many games were kicked off early, and now several are being delayed and even called early. The Bowling Green High Purples, for example, are loading up for home after their game at Henderson County was whistled over with the visitors leading, 21-7.

DeleteEmployed two charters to ride a total of about four hours to get to play 17 minutes of football. The last trip to Henderson
8:58 PM - 7 Sep 12
As of about 20 minutes ago, Channel 6 posted that Fulton County was leading, 8-7, at Heath with 11:55 to play in the second quarter. As I understand it, the KHSAA rule on this deal mandates a 30-minute delay in the event that lightning is seen. Every subsequent sighting then restarts the 30-minute delay.
ReplyDeleteGraves County and Tilghman, meanwhile, decided with 5:45 to go in the first to just hold off until 6:30 tomorrow evening. The Eagles lead, 7-0. I wonder if Graves County has ever beaten Tilghman.
(Bowling Green had never beaten Henderson County.)

"Looks like we're going to wait it out," says somebody on WKDZ. "That's what Caldwell County wants to do. ... We're hearing it could be at least an hour."
Owensboro Catholic and South Spencer will resume 4 p.m. Saturday in Reo, Ind., with the visiting Aces ahead, 10-0, in the third quarter. "Free admission for fans."

Oh, man, rough night in Princeton ... Caldwell County finally gives up the ghost of getting to get back on the field, and so Trigg County is declared the 38-37 winner with 5:42 remaining in regulation--and after an hour-and-20-minute vigil for the storm to pass. It still hasn't.
ReplyDelete"Good night, and God bless from Princeton," the WKDZ commentator signs off.
The Lake County-Reidland game, led by Lake County, 7-0, with 9:41 to play in the first, will be resumed at 6 tomorrow evening.
ReplyDeleteBut what of Pilots-at-Pirates?
ReplyDeleteAs of 9:20, per Channel 6, Fulton County and Heath remained in lightning delay with the visitors up, 8-7, with 11:55 to play in the second quarter. There's no way they would have Fulton County drive all the way back down to Hickman tonight and then back again to West Paducah tomorrow to resume this thing, would they?
Phew! OK, this game is going to resume in West Paducah at 6:30 p.m. Monday. GO, PIRATES!
DeleteSays the local Messenger: "The Madisonville-North Hopkins game with Hopkinsville has been postponed to 5 p.m. Saturday at Browning Springs, with the score tied at 14-14 with 5:49 left in the third quarter."
ReplyDeleteBrowning Springs is the downtown middle school and the former Madisonville High School. The football field is a WPA jobber, and it's where my dad as a freshman served on the Maroons cheerleading squad.
Saturday finishes:
ReplyDelete-- Calloway County 52, Ballard Memorial 14
-- Covington Catholic 34, Boone County 0
-- Crittenden County 35, Union County 6
-- Graves County 20, Paducah Tilghman 15
-- Lake County 54, Reidland 14
-- Madisonville-North 36, Hoptown 14
-- Owensboro Catholic 24, South Spencer 14
And, so now, the state's prep-football attention has a day to collect itself around West Paducah, where Fulton County and Heath are scheduled to reconvene at 6:30 p.m Monday and resume their game with the visiting Pilots leading the Pirates, 8-7, with 11:55 to play in the second quarter.
YEAH! Heath 42, Fulton County 20. Thanks for the report, Go Heath!
