With the possible exception of Elder at the Pit, no opponent will hold Highlands under 40 points. Each of their district games will be downright ugly, and that quite possibly could include the CovCath game. The only way to beat Highlands this year would be in a shootout, in the neighborhood of a 56-49 score, which is not going to happen with their stout defense.

Back to the game tomorrow night, vs. Male last week Western (who won 18-3) stacked the box with 7 or 8 defenders, which is likely a recipe for disaster against Highlands. After watching the film of the HHS-Dixie game, I'd suspect Western will try a different approach. My crystal ball says Highlands 55-Western 12
