Nice win for this young Pirate bunch. They’ll get better and better and be a contender in 3A in the end. Mark it down. But the CAL win over LCA really looked impressive, even knowing the LCA qb went down. But I sure wouldn’t bet against Pond Creek Nation.

CAL planted their flag as the team everyone in 3A is chasing.

Tilghman is a very clear cut #2 after how they battled with Mayfield and probably should have won.

Belfry is solid but a work in progress. Right now I wouldn't expect Belfry to play within 3 TD's of CAL or Tilghman. Come November.. we will see how far they have come.

Glasgow & Bardstown we have a pretty good idea of what they are. Solid, capable of a deep run, but nothing that makes you say "wow".

The team who has my curiosity though is Union County. They were very good last year and returned a ton, but still hard to quantify how good they were. Their win over Owensboro Catholic looks huge now after OCath upset Owensboro. Murray is a solid team they just beat as well. That Tilghman game could be a huge game. Trigg County is no slouch either. District 1 is absolutely stacked with those three teams.
