The Trinity High School football team will receive some national TV exposure later this month.

Trinity officials confirmed Monday that the Shamrocks’ game against Indianapolis Cathedral on Sept. 21 will be televised live on ESPN2. Kickoff is set for 8:30 p.m. at Lucas Oil Stadium, home of the Indianapolis Colts.

“It’s a great credit to our kids,” Trinity coach Bob Beatty said. “They’ve elevated themselves to get to this point.”

The Trinity-Cathedral game will be the second in a doubleheader at Lucas Oil Stadium on Sept. 21. Indianapolis schools Brebeuf Jesuit and Roncalli will meet at 5:45 p.m.

General-admission tickets will be $15, with reserved seats in the first row of the club level $20. Children 5 years and under will be admitted for free.

Trinity and Indianapolis Cathedral both are defending state champions as the Shamrocks won Kentucky’s Class 6-A title and the Fighting Irish won Indiana’s Class 4-A crown last year.

Trinity, No. 1 in The Courier-Journal’s Litkenhous Ratings, is 3-0 entering Friday’s home game against Cincinnati St. Xavier. Indianapolis Cathedral is 1-3 after Saturday’s 21-7 loss to Indianapolis Chatard.

Trinity beat Indianapolis Cathedral 36-14 last season at Marshall Stadium.
