ReplyDeleteWYMC is on the air with Frankfort at Mayfield.
ReplyDelete"I know a lot of people in the rest of the state think that western Kentucky ends at Owensboro--it doesn't."
Two towns have multiple teams still playing in the KHSAA playoffs. Louisville (population about 750,000) has three: DeSales in 2A and Butler and Male in 6A. Somerset (population less than 12,000) has two: Somerset in 2A and Pulaski County in 5A.
ReplyDeleteAs of an hour ago or so, the largest city in Kentucky without a team remaining in the tournaments is Owensboro (population almost 60,000). Covington (about 41,000), Hopkinsville (33,000), Richmond (32,000) and Florence (31,000) had no teams advance to this round.
ReplyDeleteSomeone from First Baptist Church in Mayfield just did a pre-game prayer on WYMC: "We pray that both teams play the game in such a way that is an honor to You. ..."
ReplyDeleteMayfield trails Frankfort at half, 7-6.
ReplyDeleteWYMC: "The Cardinals basically just have to find a way to get it done."
So, at the moment, we have the defending Class A champ (Mayfield) trailing at home by 7-6 to Frankfort at half and the defending 2A champ (NewCath) tied at home at 21 with Somerset through three quarters.
ReplyDeleteDefending 4A and 5A champs (Highlands and Bowling Green, respectively) lead their games comfortably. Defending 3A and 6A champs (Louisville Central and Louisville Trinity, respectively) were eliminated last Friday.
WYMC says it has heard tonight from Cardinals fans listening in Phoenix, Ariz.; Sunnyvale, Calif., and Gulf Shores, Ala.
ReplyDelete7:56 to play in fourth at NewCath: 2A champs lead Somerset, 28-21.
ReplyDelete5:00 to play in third at War Memorial Stadium: A champs lead Frankfort, 14-7.
But Somerset answers! In glorious color streaming video through iHigh.com, a Briar Jumper wide receiver takes a screen and then weaves his way through the NewCath defense for a 60-yard score. It's 28-28 in Newport.
ReplyDeleteMeanwhile, in 6A, Scott County has surged to a 24-7 lead at Louisville Male, and Meade County is beating visiting Louisville Butler, 28-7.
ReplyDeleteMayfield strikes again: 21-7 with 3:13 to play in the third quarter.
ReplyDelete"I'm getting high fives from everybody back here," says one of the WYMC dudes from the War Memorial pressbox.
NewCath goes back ahead, 35-28, but--RIGHT THERE--Somerset again answers! Tied again in Newport at 35 with 1:57 to play!
ReplyDeleteWar Productions @warprodlive
ReplyDeleteLexington Catholic has closed to 42-28 with the ball against Highlands, but the clock is running due to a 36-0 start for Highlands.
8:13 PM - 29 Nov 13
The clock keeps running even under these conditions? That seems odd.
DeleteTriStateFootball.com @tsfootball
ReplyDeleteHighlands has seen 35 unanswered scored on them; lead LexCath 42-35 with 3:45 left in game #nkyfb
8:17 PM - 29 Nov 13
Oh, my.
ReplyDeleteAND THE CHRISTMAS TREE IN LEXINGTON IS LIT!
2:23 on the running clock at LexCath, and Highlands adds an insurance score: 49-35.
ReplyDeleteSomerset holds NewCath and takes over at its 10 after a punt. Tied 35-35 in Newport.
ReplyDeleteFinal in 4A: Highlands 49, Lexington Catholic 35.
ReplyDeleteHighlands and Collins return to the 4A final.
19.3 seconds to go at NewCath, and Somerset advances to the 42. Timeout, Briar Jumpers ...
ReplyDeleteSo, the defending 4A champ, Highlands, survives a late charge from Lexington Catholic, and the defending A champ, Mayfield, is now up three touchdowns in the fourth quarter on Frankfort after trailing by one point at halftime.
ReplyDeleteBut the defending 2A champ, NewCath, is not out of the woods. The Thoroughbreds and Somerset are going to overtime in Newport, tied at 35.
In 6A, Meade County continues to roll against Butler, but Scott County just missed a field goal with 6:17 to play and Male is taking over down by 14.
ReplyDeleteIn 5A, Bowling Green is taking out John Hardin, and Anderson County is trying to close out visiting Pulaski County--17-14, but the Bearcats just turned the ball over to Pulaski late on downs.
ReplyDeleteActually, it's closer than what I thought in BG. John Hardin is back within 27-14 with 4:07 to play. This is the first game in the playoffs in which the Purples have yielded more than one touchdown.
DeleteNewCath and Somerset both score in first overtime: 42 apiece.
ReplyDeleteAnd on first play of second OT, Briar Jumpers score again (just as they scored on first play of first OT).
BUT SOMERSET MISSES THE EXTRA-POINT ATTEMPT! 48-42, Somerset. NewCath gets the ball ...
DeleteOn first down, NewCath runs to the Somerset 3 ...
DeleteRun to inside the 2 ...
DeleteNewCath scores just inside the pylon ... 48 apiece ... PAT attempt ... timeout Somerset ...
DeleteKick is good! Defending 2A champ, NewCath, survives, 49-48, against Somerset, which won in each of the first three rounds on the road but comes up one point short in double overtime tonight.
DeleteSomerset put up a much better fight than I anticipated. Hate to see anyone lose on a missed extra point.
DeleteMeanwhile, down in Lawrenceburg, ...

DeleteThe Twitter desk is holding for sad confirmation from our main man in Lawrenceburg, John Herndon, but there are reports that Pulaski County has held off Anderson County's drive and won in 5A, 20-17.
