Northern Kentucky will have a great representation of football in the State Tournaments once again with three teams headed down to Western Kentucky University this weekend. The Russell Athletic/KHSAA Commonwealth Gridiron Bowl will begin with Highlands playing on Friday, while NewCath and Cooper playing on Saturday. We will have broadcast links to all the games. Note: video broadcasts will only be available for replay by the KHSAA. Good luck to all the teams down State!
