there are reasons for classifications, but i would say that the running clock issue would proably of came into play more probable during a trinity/highlands game before the newcath/highlands game.

Nice try. Not even a chance anyone is this state is getting a running clock against Highlands in the forseeable future. I don't think Highlands would necessarily put the running clock on Trinity either, although they may have pounded Trinity with a running clock in 09. Xperthsfan might want to do some fact checking. Highlands was on par with Trinity this year as evidenced by their pre-season matchup that came down to the last offensive play for Highlands(49-42). In 09 Highlands beat Cincy ST X. The same Cincy St X that destroyed 09 Trinity.

The Beechwood team that beat NCC in Week 10 this year, was down 30-0 against Highlands after 1 quarter and 43-0 at the half with Highlands taking it easy on them from the 2nd qtr on.

The running clock would like happen before the half if Highlands and NCC played this year. Those big, slow, plodding lineman for Newcath are a liability versus Highlands.
