Reading all of this I don't think it's fair to even mention Highlands in the same category as St. X & Trinity. don't get me wrong, Highlands is a good team but I think Trinity & St. X are in a league of their own. I say this because as good as Highlands has been, if they had to play a schedule that involved the majority of that schedule being Louisville area schools, they wouldn't be that well either. Now that's not there fault, it's just the messed up class system we have here in KY. That goes for Lexington, Eastern Ky are schools as well. When they play teams from Louisville area, they usually get beat.

If HHS is not in their league, they aren't far behind.

If I'm not mistaken the Birds have lost only to Ryle in the state I think the last 5 or so years. They play Cincy teams that are far better than 99% of the state. I can't remember the last time that HHS played a L'ville team in the regular season. (Male in '01 or so?)

Still the question was why NKY and L'ville schools don't play the Mountains. And again I ask: What would they gain from it? The answer is: Nothing.
