I’ve heard both I heard that it began as a filler game but turned into a Home/Home two year deal. But idk if that meant this year is year one of the series or last year was. A lot of people seem to think Highlands is on the rise to where they used to be, myself included. They aren’t there yet, but it still raises this question from me.

If Highlands were to lose or at least doesn’t win this game with a running clock, does it cause their stock to go down or the Raceland stock to rise? Because it kind of went both ways with the Raceland/Pikeville game.

I don’t think Highlands will ever get back to where they use to be. When they were killing people back in the day they had a lot of kids playing from out of district. I believe the school made some rule where they no longer took in out of district kids. Someone from Highlands can explain better than me but this is what I was told.

I've watched a lot of games in NKY and talked with people at several schools and from the conversations I've had it seems like Highlands may have trouble getting to back to their old level because of the growth in the NKY region particularly in Boone County.  This seems to have made it difficult for Highlands to attract the talent that they used to get.  I think Highlands is on the rise but I think with the NKY area spreading wider and creating more parity in where kids can go to school it will make it difficult for them to hoard talent like they had in the past.
