I think it's safe to say that Highlands is on a completely different level than Ashland or any other 4A school for that matter. Therefore, comparing what they do to what Ashland does is pointless. That's why using the Beechwood/Raceland analogy is also pointless.

If your goal is to point out that Highlands is better than Ashland then you will get a disagreement from only those who don't live in reality.

You discount Ashland's tradition as if it happened but only in the 60's and before. While I will concede that most of the state championships were from way back when, Ashland did win a state championship in 1990 and has consistently played into the playoffs, which in my opinion seperates them from Army, Navy, and 2 schools that no longer field teams. I guess my point is, that Ashland's tradition/history isn't nearly as insignificant as you make it out to be and not nearly as significant as others believe it to be.

You'll get nowhere with this argument there is a small and I mean small group of bluebird fans who thinks the teams success translates to them and thus makes them superior. What has happened is Ashland won a game handily that noone(myself included) thought they would win and the trolls took notice. Take it as a complement but don't waste your breath on arguing with them. Eventually someone from our area will beat them. I actually like ashland and JC right now over cov Cath unless the colonels get healthy. And I think JC could give ashland all they want. There district isn't superior just highlands and one of these days they will lose as well. And it will be to either JC or Ashland.
