Mercer Co beat everybody by 50 points in 2006. Came into the championship against us (Russell) and we beat them physically and one score was questionable.. Not to start that again. but the final was Russell 12-Mercer 15.
Mercer was a consolidated school with Harrodsburg I think. A 2A school and a 1A school to combine to give them a 5A school membership. They were allowed to play in 2A becasue they made their schedule 1 week before consolidating. This gave them to option to play in the 2 A division with approval of the KHSAA..
Not fair to every school they played that year becasue they went to the 5A division the next year withthe same enrollment.
Ask us we know!!!!

Not crying or belly aching.. just stating the truth.

With all due respect Devilologist, you can't have your cake an eat it to. You can't say how it is unfair and at the same time mention how Russell had them beat. If by your arguement it makes it sound as though it doesn't matter f they are playing down or not cause the best team will still win.

But, for the record, I agree with qhat you were getting at. It is unfair, and Mercer's title should forever have an asterisk. Russell was CLEARLY the bets 2A team in the state that seasona nd should have a state title to show for it.
