Not complaining about enrollment. Simply stating that what you were saying about enrollment is no longer true. We have been in 6A for seven years and for us to have post-season success, we will have to beat teams that have 1,000+ more kids than us. Did the eastern NCC schools have an issue with enrollment of HHS/McC? Not sure. Ask them. It is not my position to speak further on the “why” behind Jeff’s vote in favor of these changes. I can tell you that searching for regular season wins in football had absolutely nothing to do with it. I can assure you that we will continue to find/seek the best teams that we can play during the regular season in order to prepare ourselves to be at our best for the playoffs. It is my hope that HHS/McC remain on our schedule in football regular season moving forward.

Foxbat: I can assure you that having "the inside track" for NCC/regular seasons victories in football had absolutely nothing to do with Jeff being part of the 70% to vote TSC out of the NCC. Additionally, your continued posts stating that Jeff is the largest school in the county is not factual. Look up the Fall 2022 ADM enrollment numbers. HHS has officially surpassed Jeff. Look for Jeff to be hanging out in the range of 1,980-2,090 students moving forward. HHS enrollment growth or the highly competitive games dating back to 2017 had absolutely nothing to do with why we are where we are today. It is my hope that those within the Lafayette community will continue to see Jeff/HHS/McC continue to play each other on the gridiron in the future. It is unfortunate we are we are. However, the kids and the communities deserve to be part of those games.

I normally just stick to reading on this board. But this is not factual at all. Our team was much different as it relates to personnel from Week 1 vs. Week 12. Without a doubt, playing Cathedral Week 1 exposed areas where we had to drastically improve in order to be playing good football come November. Congrats to both Carroll and Center Grove on great seasons. Looking forward to a great match-up on Friday.
