I was amazed to read that the NCC girls volleyball team had not beaten St. Henry since 2003. So, big win for the Thoroughbreds who are now 7-1 to start off the season. Check out the article on the game from NKY.com:

HOT Start to NKY Football Weekend
The Northern Kentucky High School football season started out with HOT temperatures and so did the Highlands Bluebirds in the first half of their opening game vs Ryle. Highlands jumped out to a 28-0 halftime lead and never looked back defeating the Raiders 49-21. And Highlands' hottest player was Josh Conner who ran for 227 yard and 5 touchdowns.
Then the next day, Cody Elliott and the Beechwood Tigers got HOT, but not until the 4th Quarter. Trailing 17-7 in the final quarter, Elliott had runs of 53 and 19 yards respectively, bringing the Tigers back to defeat Dixie 21-17.
This past HOT weekend also provided a few mild surprises with Dayton defeating Holmes 21-19 and Bellevue beating Newport 13-7. NewCath had an easy time with Simon Kenton 43-6.
Here's a run down of the other games:
Campbell County 28 - Tates Creek 14
Scott County 28 - Boone County 20
Owen County 30 - Brossart 6
LaSalle 34 - CovCath 7
Holy Cross 13 - N. Laurel 10
Elizabethtown 44 - Lloyd 37
Ludlow 27 - Trimble County 20
Anderson County 57 - Scott 41

Dixie Heights Colonels Football Preview
Head Coach: Tom Spritzky (83-53 in 12 Seasons)
Assistant Coaches:
Dave Sorrell, Todd Newton, Andy Buford, Steve Odom, Bill Vaughn, Stan Spritzky
Last Year's Record: 5-6
Returning Starters:
Offense
Joey Bricking (QB), Marty Molony (RB), Derrik Freeman (OT), Alex Koski (OG), EJ Dettmer (WR), Scott Sanders (OG)
Defense
Stephen Benson (LB), Alex Koski (DE), Daniel Eastham (LB), EJ Dettmer (FS), Marty Molony (LB)
This year's senior class is full of athletic ability and experience. It's imperative they learn how to lead and develop a tougher mental attitude. This group of players will be challenged with lots of talent in the junior and sophmore classes. Dixie should have intense competition for many starting positions.
It should be an interesting year with the start of the 6 Class alignment in Kentucky. Dixie is in 5A with CovCath, Highlands, Holmes, and Scott. Their first four games will be against Beechwood, Simon Kenton, CovCath, and Highlands. This is a much different schedule layout with district games being played throughout the schedule instead of at the end of the season.

Campbell County Camels Football Preview
Head Coach: Troy Styer (14-8 in 2 Seasons)
Assistant Coaches:
Keith Culp, Jeremiah Sowards, Kip Mason Jr., Adam Nelson, Greg Fangman, Terry Brown, Justin Mason, Justin Fussinger, Doug Miller
Last Year's Record: 8-4 (5-2 District)
Key Returning Starters:Andy Lay (LT), Brian Sauerbeck (LG/LB), Jimmy Brickler (RG), Ryan Eten (TE/DE), Patrick Thomer (OG/DE), Austin Studer (WR), Andy Franzen (WR), Chris Addie (WR), Grant Rose (RB), Corey Porter (S), Jordan Woodruff (LB), Nathan Kidwell (LB), Cody Owens (LB)
Offensive OutlookCampbell County will have to look to replace several skill positions, notably QB, WR, RB and TE. There is a lot of talent to choose from to reload as WR's Austin Studer, Andy Franzen, Chris Addie, and Tony Bishop will look to step up to the challenge. Senior, Nathan Kidwell (6-14 for 66 yards last year), will step in as Quarterback this year and run the offense. The strength of the team will be the receivers and the speed of the running game.
Defensive Outlook
The defense has lost many playmakers from last year, but return their top 3 tacklers in Brian Sauerbeck, Jordan Woodruff, and Cody Owens. The team's leader in interceptions, Corey Porter, also returns. Patrick Thomer should be a major contributor on defense this year as he moves to DE. The transfer from Middletown, OH, Ross Risner, should also see time at LB in the Camel's 4-4 defensive scheme. Sophmores Zach Koeninger and Michael Stacey had great spring practices and look to be ready to help out on the varsity level this year.
Overall Outlook
After finishing 8-4 last year with their first playoff victory since 1994, expectations have risen at Campbell County. A tougher non-district schedule, which includes Lexington Tates Creek, Mason County, NewCath, and Dixie, looks to get the Camels ready for postseason play. The new breakdown of their district will make it tough because now five teams are fighting for four playoff spots. Their success is contingent upon players stepping into starting roles, and their contstant battle to develop depth across the lines.
