Here you go

Ashland
Frederick Douglass
Johnson Central
Lawrence County
Mason County
Paris
Simon Kenton
St. Xavier

I see two teams Johnson County can play and try and earn some respect.

Try and earn some respect? We’ve played in five straight state championships and have won two of them. So do you actually think our program isn’t respected? As for the teams you’ve graciously listed above I’ll give you the break down on each. 

Ashland- Our AD Tommy McKenzie, Coach Matney and myself has contacted Ashland about playing and all three of us has been told no. 

Fredrick Douglas- I contacted Coach McPeek early in the scheduling process about a game and he wasn’t interested. We are contacting them again since they’re still needing a game. 

Johnson Central- We can’t play ourselves. We do that Monday thru Thursday. 

Lawrence County- Both myself and Coach Matney have contacted Lawrence and they said no. This was before they stopped everything for two weeks. 

Mason County- I contacted Mason myself and they said no. 

Paris- I’m not even wasting the time for an email. If the top teams in Class A said no there’s no way Paris will. 

Simon Kenton- We’re playing them on 9/25 

St Xavier- Our AD contacted them early in the process and they weren’t interested. We contacted them again late last night about playing but there’s no response yet.
