Wow.

People say that schools like CovCath recruit because they get kids from all over, but, if they only had kids only came there for sports, then they'd be in a 2a or so. We had a lot of good athletes in my grade at CovCath, but most kids just went there for the atmosphere and/or academics.

Furthermore, I was recruited by Beechwood and Dixie to no end, but no one from CCH ever recruited me.

You want to say a school like Highlands doesn't recruit just because they're a public school? Who are the two biggest stars from Highlands? Jared Lorenzen and Derek Smith, right? I love Lorenzen- he's a good friend of mine- but he's from Edgewood (or might be the border of Erlanger, but it's basically the same thing), which is a half an hour away from Highlands when there's absolutely no traffic, you hit every light, and you don't stop on any tutrn. Smith is from Bellevue, which is closer, but it's still not in Highlands' district.

Man you are clueless, are you driving a horse and buggy from Edgewood to Ft Thomas? Grew up in Ft Thomas and lived in Edgewood for 6 years; It is 15 mins tops. And Lorenzen was from a divorced family with one family member living in Ft Thomas. Would you send your child to Scott or Highlands if you had the choice. And I am pretty sure Smith was from Silver Grove, which is one of the worst acedemic schools in the state, so I give a big pat on the back to his parents for sending him to a good academic and sports school. Highlands does not have to recruit, their great academics and great sport programs does all the recruiting they need. It is programs that are not winning that need to recruit, not the Highlands, Trinitys, X's, Boyles, Beechwood's, ect.
