sawmill Wrote:If your school district is 6.7 s miles where do all these players come from I get the fact you got good coaches and a great program. Ft population is only 16k people and yet you have endless supply on great football players. Coaches are one thing but and endless talent pool to pick from. So where do all these people live there s no room for new developments there.
I did see collinsworth recruiting for you guys sunday night football, just say n.
So do people live there for thier little jonny to play football then move back to ohio. So the next crop can have a place to live. :rockon:
Wikipedia: what a great site too look stuff up^ Yeah not all of that 6.7 miles are zoned for ft thomas schools. There are pockets around the city zoned for county (campbell) Also there are a good amount of kids who live in the Fort who go to NewCath. Either go to highlands/Ncc and pay tuition or go to campbell co. walk to school or drive less than 1 mile. Or drive 8 miles out of the way, or have your child on a bus for some up to an hour one way.
I have a great book for you to read. Its all about highlands football.
Little Jon's dad played there (won state)...and Grandpa also played (him too won State)
Example for ya last name, fennell
Fennell jr won 1943: 10-1 "Mythical" State Champion
Fennell III Won 1968: 13-0 Class AA Champion
Fennell IV won 2000: 14-1 Class AAA Champion
I know its really hard to believe our players live here, Have grown up here. And yes its true there are some who move or pay tuition to come but the home grown out number the so called "out of state kid".
yeah like my know my Second grader is going to be an all stete player when he gets up too the high school. Not at all at this point....but he see what his older brother has done the last few years. If he wants a shot at it he has to start now. Ft thomas doesn't start its jr league til 3rd grade but we have a flag football from 1-2 grade. So he will Drink the " kool aid" for the next 6 years. And til then if he works hard and stays with it only good things will happen.
Also a lot of kids who lived here go off to school then come back to start their familys here as well.
Football is a Life Lesson. Life isn't fair. Young men must be taught to deal with unfairness and adversity. Turn to your coaches, turn to your fellow teammates to get through these games.
Go birds, and good luck to your team in the playoffs
