Whenever these two schools meet up whether on the gridiron, the hardwood, or the diamond it always seems like an intense game with alot of passion. It gives me the feeling of the country boys versus the city boys. Ashland and Lawrence both have their stakes to fame and rightfully so. These two schools have won tons of games during the football seasons and always compete at the highest level. Should be a great atmosphere for the opening game in Louisa in August.

What does Ashland return this season, what are some of their strengths and weaknesses?

They return their senior qb, he has a lot of experience being a 4 year starter, two senior wide receivers, pretty much the whole backfield with the only loss being Rogers who was unfortunately hurt the last half of last season. All the defensive secondary and linebackers are back and all the linemen have been starters at one time or another last year.You never know until the ball is snapped but it looks ok going in.
