That Roncalli kickoff to start the second half was the momentum swing. The ball landed near the sideline at about the 10 yard line and died. Roncalli beat Heritage Hills to the ball. Basically a 55 yard onside kick recovery. Roncalli scored a touchdown a few plays later. Heritage Hills was intercepted on the ensuing possession and Roncalli scored again.
Heritage Hills first and goal inside Roncalli 3 yd. line and come up with no points. Real competitive game.
Can't get used to Roncalli changing to "Royals"
Correct. Howe was closed in 1995 and reopened in 2000 as a middle school. In 2002 IPS implemented an athletic careers magnet at Howe and started adding high school students until the school had a senior class in 2005-06. Dr. Eugene White moved the athletic careers magnet to Tech in 2009 with the intent to compete with the township schools.
Correct. Trey Lyles was the only starter on the 2014 State Championship Indianapolis Tech team who had been at Tech since his freshman year. He actually resided in Decatur Township. All other starters were IPS transfers into Tech. Justin Baker transferred from Northwest to Tech and received immediate full eligibility. He later transferred to Cathedral and had to sit out a year. There is an appearance of IHSAA double standards regarding transfers into p/p schools and especially Cathedral.
Kyle Neddenriep is certainly a knowledgeable sports writer. He travels all over the Indy Metro area. I enjoy reading his work.
When Howe was open that school was a rotating door of transfers. If both schools claim the transfer was not for athletic purposes and the parent(s) or legal guardian signs off on the transfer, immediate eligibility has always been granted by the IHSAA.
