Speaker 1: Don't mind us. We're just carrying on other conversations during
Speaker 1: the break, brands taking pictures, flashes working. Everything's good. We've
Speaker 1: got high school football to get to a lot, and
Speaker 1: I mean a lot to get to there, so let's
Speaker 1: get to it. I'm looking at all these notes and
Speaker 1: I'm like, Greg's had one of those days. He's had
Speaker 1: a lot of stuff going on, and he put together
Speaker 1: all of these notes just for us tonight. So let's
Speaker 1: welcome him in high school football Tonight show tomorrow night,
Speaker 1: tristatefootball dot Com. Greg Shoemaker, how are you?
Speaker 2: I'm good, guys. How you going? What a great weekend football?
Speaker 2: It's a great week. It's been amazing.
Speaker 1: We are fired up. There's a lot to sort through.
Speaker 1: Rock you kick us off.
Speaker 3: Yes, Greg, let's quickly just kind of summarize Indiana right now.
Speaker 3: Class one A, three A, five A with some local
Speaker 3: teams hit it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so let's do this. There's three great games. We
Speaker 2: have three local team is playing for regional championships. So
Speaker 2: in Class one A Milin they're sitting at six and four.
Speaker 2: They are off at state reigning state champion Providence tomorrow.
Speaker 2: Providence is one twenty six of their last twenty seven games,
Speaker 2: and Milon's looking for its second regional title in school history,
Speaker 2: the only other one being in nineteen ninety six. Now
Speaker 2: in Class three A over in Indiana, Lawrenceburg's sitting there
Speaker 2: at ten to one. They're hosting the Cascade Cadets. Never
Speaker 2: heard of this school before. They're twelve to zero and
Speaker 2: they are looking for their first ever regional title. But
Speaker 2: they're going to have to do it at Dick Mears
Speaker 2: Stadium in Lawrenceburg. That's not going to be easy. Lawrenceburg
Speaker 2: is on a quest for their seventh regional crown and
Speaker 2: first since twenty twenty two. And this is a great storyline. Guys.
Speaker 2: In Class five A over in Indiana, East Central is
Speaker 2: looking to go to get to the regional or get
Speaker 2: this regional championship. In five A, they are hosting reigning
Speaker 2: Class four A state champion, New Palestine, who was sitting
Speaker 2: at twelve and zero. Two years ago, East Central beat
Speaker 2: New Palestine forty nine to nothing in the Class four
Speaker 2: A state title game, and in that game, after that game,
Speaker 2: East Central moved up to Class five A. Last season,
Speaker 2: New Palestine won the Class four A state title and
Speaker 2: now they've moved up to Class five A this seasons.
Speaker 2: New Palestine hasn't lost a game since losing to East
Speaker 2: Central in that state championship game. They've won twenty five
Speaker 2: in a row since that game. So really cool story.
Speaker 2: Two four eight teams moving up to five A. One
Speaker 2: of them is going to get to the regional finals
Speaker 2: two years after a year or two after being state
Speaker 2: champions in four A cool story there.
Speaker 1: That is awesome. All right, let's go to Kentucky second
Speaker 1: round of the playoffs, and you've got three games for
Speaker 1: us to keep an eye on.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Cap, They're down at Johnson Central tomorrow night and
Speaker 2: Johnson Central is eleven and oh it's a long drive
Speaker 2: down to Painneville. CUBCAT has doc Johnson Central out of
Speaker 2: the playoffs in each of the last two years, and
Speaker 2: the last year was thirteen or fourteen to thirteen. Cup
Speaker 2: CAF won that game. So these Golden Eagles seniors are
Speaker 2: going to be out for Cup Cat if CUPCAF comes
Speaker 2: away with that, man, I like the grid on that team.
Speaker 2: Look for them to have another matchup with Highlands. But
Speaker 2: the next game over is Cooper. Cooper is eight and three.
Speaker 2: They're hosting Scott County Cooper's won six in a row.
Speaker 2: They've knocked Scott County out of the playoffs in each
Speaker 2: of the last two seasons as well, and averaged forty
Speaker 2: two points as well doing it. So like Cooper, they're
Speaker 2: running hot there in Class one A over here in Kentucky,
Speaker 2: Newport they are at holy Cross. Holy Cross is eleven
Speaker 2: and oh Newport sitting at seven and four. This could
Speaker 2: be a trap game for unbeaten holy Cross because there's
Speaker 2: a lot of seniors on this new team and this
Speaker 2: is I'm sorry Newport team. This is their their chance
Speaker 2: to get that signature win and move on. That's one
Speaker 2: of those senior classes that doesn't want to lose in
Speaker 2: the playoffs. However, hoy Krafts has just given up twenty
Speaker 2: seven points in their last eight games for four shutouts.
Speaker 2: So it's gonna be a fun one there. That's I
Speaker 2: think that's gonna be a very low scoring affair and
Speaker 2: hard hitting one as well.
Speaker 3: All right, Hi, greg Onto, Ohio Division four to eleven
Speaker 3: to zero teams battled out. The Taff Senators had the
Speaker 3: number one ranked at Indian Hill.
Speaker 2: What do you seeing that one?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: I mean, well, we talked about Taff last week and
Speaker 2: they they've outscored the last eight teams by an average
Speaker 2: or by three hundred and ninety four to seven points.
Speaker 2: They're they're amazing. They're average and forty seven points per game.
Speaker 2: Oh remember this last week guys that we talked about
Speaker 2: him having twelve return scores on returns, punts, kickoffs, interceptions, fumbles.
Speaker 2: They had three more last week against Clinton Massy All
Speaker 2: in the first half. Backs the first play of the
Speaker 2: game with a hundred yard interception return. So, uh, they're
Speaker 2: very good. Now, Indian Hill sort of mirrors those guys.
Speaker 2: Indian Hills is number one seed here and they're hosting
Speaker 2: this game. They're holding Post to just five points per game.
Speaker 2: But I'm going to tell you what this team, this
Speaker 2: TAF team is is so deep and today they're there. Uh.
Speaker 2: They swept the Division four awards in the all district voting,
Speaker 2: quarterback Montsanna Torbert and being named the Division four Offensive
Speaker 2: Player of the Year. Adam Curtly the UC comment was
Speaker 2: named the Division four Defensive Player of the Year for TAFT,
Speaker 2: and coach Williams getting the Coach of the Year as well.
Speaker 2: There So I like this TAT team a lot. I
Speaker 2: can't wait, I'm going out and seeing that tomorrow. That's
Speaker 2: that's the game I'm gonna hit before I go to
Speaker 2: the studio.
Speaker 1: All right, four seed Princeton the Vikings versus one seed
Speaker 1: Elder the Panthers. The pit will be up for grabs.
Speaker 1: And I think people are still scratching their head trying
Speaker 1: to figure out how exactly Princeton won last week.
Speaker 2: And that's duntan land. I mean, they were down by
Speaker 2: thirteen with three minutes and thirty seconds left, look like
Speaker 2: crud and figure out a way to win that game.
Speaker 2: So you know, when you hit the playoffs and you
Speaker 2: win a game like that, that improbable surviving advanced wins,
Speaker 2: you know you think that everything's off their back. Princeton
Speaker 2: went ran the ball twenty two times last week for
Speaker 2: minus thirty yards rushing, yet still found a way. Neammy
Speaker 2: and Neal had a couple of touchdowns catches in the
Speaker 2: last minutes of that game, but they survived in advance. However,
Speaker 2: they're at the pit. The weather's going to be amazing
Speaker 2: tomorrow night. I think that's going to be a sellout.
Speaker 2: And Elder is eleven to zero for the first time
Speaker 2: in school history. I mean, it's hard to believe. And
Speaker 2: here's the other thing about here's why I like Elder
Speaker 2: in this one. They have won seven games over teams
Speaker 2: that have won eight or more games. This season, they
Speaker 2: have eleven wins. They have seven of them against teams
Speaker 2: that have won that many games. That's crazy. And they've
Speaker 2: won their last four by twenty points. You know, I
Speaker 2: like Elder to move on here. I just think it's
Speaker 2: gonna be a wonderful night at the pit.
Speaker 1: All right, Rock, here we go. You ready, go ahead?
Speaker 2: What was going on here?
Speaker 3: Number three X, number two Molar Molars beat st X seven?
Speaker 3: What do you what do you see? I'm just gonna
Speaker 3: let you have the floor. Greg tell me, hey.
Speaker 2: Rock and look, Berth Bethieni is the head coach over
Speaker 2: at Moeller's. It's five and er against U. I mean,
Speaker 2: this is the second third straight year they're gonna play
Speaker 2: each other, not only in the regular season, but the playoffs.
Speaker 2: I mean, and this game, in the first game this year,
Speaker 2: it was very one sided. Uh Moler, But Rocky. Last
Speaker 2: week special teams were good for st X. They had
Speaker 2: two unconventional scores. They need to continue that. Mojo Braydon
Speaker 2: Braydon Riley was fantastic last week. They and the other
Speaker 2: thing I liked about X last week Rock is Annel
Speaker 2: Bohmer got the majorities of the carries for them on offense.
Speaker 2: They need to keep running the ball with him and
Speaker 2: Jake Britt. That's going to be their way to get there.
Speaker 2: Special teams for X was great last week. Special teams
Speaker 2: was great for Moler. In the first game they played
Speaker 2: in the regular season, Jack Malabar, the kicker for Mohler,
Speaker 2: had three converted to three drives with field goals from
Speaker 2: field goals from forty seven, forty two, and thirty seven yards.
Speaker 2: That's you know, that was three extra scores, nine extra
Speaker 2: points on three possessions in a game like this, if
Speaker 2: he does a couple of those again, it's gonna be
Speaker 2: hard to beat Moller. But man, if that game's up
Speaker 2: at you to arena or not you the arena, but
Speaker 2: welcome stadium of at UD tomorrow and it'll be a
Speaker 2: good if. That's another great place to see a game.
Speaker 2: So if you have you want a ticket and go
Speaker 2: see a game, that's a good one to go to.
Speaker 1: All right, Greg, you have everybody a preview of the
Speaker 1: high school Football Tonight show and everything going on with
