I hate to say so, but the return of Highlands to 4A will make Johnson Central and Ashland's road to the finals tougher. I wish that Highlands had never left the class, so that the Golden Eagles could have steamrolled them a few times on their way to the state finals and pulled into the lead in the all time series between the teams. Aside from Corbin, there is no team that I enjoy watching lose more than the Bluebirds.
