This Weeks History-1999 Class 3A

WildDawg Wrote:I remember that year very well being a LC fan. A little history about that LC team. That was the year sophomore Michael West come from no where and dominated with his speed. Current LC offensive cooridinator Alan Short played Qb. Senior WR Gerad Parker who went on to play WR for UK and is now recruiting cooridinator and TE's coach at Purdue. Sophomore Dontae Wright played some safety that year and went on to play college football at Miami of Ohio.

This was probably the most talented LC team that I've seen. The Dawgs couldn't stop Highlands spread passing attack led by former University of Cincinnati QB Gino Guidugli. Their leading WR Brett Hamblen went on to play for UK. They also had other D1 players including the big OL that signed with UT (Rod Smith???). Highlands and the Bulldogs traded scores all night but LC coughed it up something like 6 times that night.

I think about that game sometimes and wonder what would've been had LC not fumbled it so much. Highlands couldn't stop the Bulldogs rushing attack.

Hamblen went to UK, but immediately got into trouble for starting a fire in a dorm. I think he went to UC for a while, but I don't know that he ever did much, if any, playing for the Bearcats.

LC might have been the second best team in 3A that year, but Dixie and Owensboro could both make that claim also. First was never up for question.
