On a beautiful night at Lexington Catholic High School, the No. 9 ranked Johnson Central Golden Eagles (2-0) dispatched the Fern Creek Tigers (1-1) by a score of 55-19 in the first game of the Bluegrass Bowl doubleheader. Lexington Catholic easily defeated Henry Clay 48-6 in the nightcap.
Johnson Central played smashmouth football to beat their second 6A big city opponent in as many weeks – the Golden Eagles also dominated Lafayette last week.
“With most of (our coaching staff) growing up in Johnson County, we do take a lot of pride in where we come from,” Coach Jesse Peck said.
