I wouldn't be bragging about shutting out Rockcastle after they lost their main weapon on offense. I watched several of their games last year and they were fortunate that other backs stepped up and overachieved against Russell Co, PCC, and the whole remaining schedule after Rowe was hurt. They had a great year considering they lost their main RB. Take Jude away from JC last year, or Davenport from Bell last year, or Canady from Knox Central this year and see how they fare. One player makes a huge difference. You never know, some kid on Boyle may be the next Jacob Tamme. I think Boyle Co. has the best defense of the two, but I am not sure of their offense.

bragging? You where not impressed and all I did was make a valid point that Boyle's Defence had a shut out on the game you speak of. Since the Rockcastle game can't count because they lost there back, let's look at the season as a whole. For the 2011 season Boyle finished at #2 in the State 4A KHSAA Team Scoring Defensive Leaders. #5 in the state at Rushing Yards allowed and #6 at passing yards allowed. Holding Lexington Catholic to 3 touchdowns in 2 games is not shabby. The Knights did that in one game against Highlands, had 33 against Bell, and 37 against John Hardin. Nobody but Bowling Green came close to doing what Boyle did. For the season Boyle's D had 4 shut outs. I will say we did bend last year, but did not break.



For the record .....A starting Jacob Tamme broke his leg, I believe against Harrodsburg in 2000. One play maker might make a difference, but great teams will over come a loss and continue to find a way to win.
