Everyone and there mother knows Highlands is down this year, Bowling Green or John Hardin can give them a run. Covington Cath. is a great team and so is Highlands but there definetly beatable this year, I dont know the stats of this game nor Did I Attend it but the score indicates Highlands can have an off night and a great team has a chance to knock them off.

The final score may indicate that it was close, but look at the boxscore: Cov Cath scored almost all of their points in the second half. The Highlands players were gassed and allowed those points; don't count on them being gassed come playoff time. Also, the offensive play calling was completely different than usual. There was more Towles running and less Towles throwing long. I assume (hope) that Dale is just holding back for playoff time.

Honestly, this game meant nothing. The week was a bit obscure for the Birds and things will get back to normal this week. There's no need to be giving up faith this early. Just wait and see what they do against Ryle in two weeks and then make your judgements.
