We'll be there!

Yep, I've been there!

This will be Cathedral's first visit to the Pit since 2002. This could be a very interesting game. Caution to Irish fans, get there early! Parking is limited and the Elder fans will be sitting on the visitor's side quite early so it's best to get there to claim a seat very early.

IMO, he's just trolling and trying to get a reaction from us to gain attention. It's really kinda sad.

He should just be ignored. It's my opinion that he's just trying to gain some attention.

Thanks, John!!!

I agree, but then I'm an old fan boy! The attitude alone was so much better than it's been for a few years now. I know the depth isn't there but if they stay relatively healthy they'll have a very good year.

Just statin' the facts.

I respectfully disagree that it's a "chore" to change. I don't believe most clock operators, and I know some, would have any problem with going back and forth. Just my opinion of course. Also increasing the threshold to 36 or 42 points is better than the current 35 points. A few years back, Cathedral had a 42-0 halftime lead at Whiteland in the Playoffs. Cathedral pulled the starters and Whiteland scored 28 points in about 5 minutes of the third quarter and Coach Streiff had to put the starters back in. Anything can happen.

BTW, the Cathedral freshmen lost to Brownsburg 8-7 yesterday ending their 3+ years of being unbeaten.

And a lot of young players playing keep roles. If they can stay healthy, this is going to be a fun season for the Irish and their fans.

I really like this idea!

Except for the 4 Irish turnovers, it was a very good night for the Irish. Total yards, 275 for Cathedral, 104 for Moeller. First downs 13-5 in favor of the Irish. Orin Edwards threw for 217 yards on 20-33, but threw 3 ints. Only 4 penalties for 20 yards for the Irish. On a personal note, it was nice of Moeller to turn down sitting on the St. X side, home side. So we sat on the "home" side and it is an amazing view. St. X is one of the few football fields without a running track and that puts you right behind the bench. It's a great venue for high school football not matter which side you're on. Next week isn't any easier when Cathedral visits Cincinnati Elder at the Pit.

Outstanding effort, and I emphasize effort, by the Irish. Moeller turned the ball over a school record 8 times in this game. It was the first time they had been shut out since 2006. More later after Church.

Cathedral only has one losing season since 1967 (3-7 in 2003).

My old gang with be there tomorrow night! It's really strange not playing on Friday night.

Muda deja vu all over again!

Thanks!😎

FUMBLE!

Cathedral JV 24, Noblesville JV 7 I'm unable to find the freshman score. I will post it when I'm advised of the score. Of course if anyone knows the score please post it here.

A couple of observations from last night. First off Noblesville's punter was outstanding! 7 punts for a 50.3 average! He flipped the field more than once. Secondly, I had never seen a game at Noblesville in all my years of watching Cathedral football, and I was impressed with the facility and the hospitality of everyone there. And lastly, I saw something last night for the first time. In my 65 years of Cathedral football, I had not seen a female official until last night. Hats off to her for a fine job, in fact the entire crew was very acceptable.

St. X is a school of approx. 1600 young men. It has a proud tradition and it's really a neat place to play. My advice to fans, get there early and avoid a long walk from a remote parking area.

This is the only drawback. I like the rule, but I hope my team isn't on the wrong side of it.

Probably the biggest DL the Irish have had in years, maybe ever. In previous years, speed was the big factor in the DL. Now it seems clogging the middle is being addressed. Lots of youth on the offensive line. The OL opened up some huge holes for the runners and held up nicely in pass protection. Now it's on to Cincinnati and Moeller next week.
