The High School Football Huddle
No one can ever accuse St. Xavier of Cincinnati, Ohio of playing a cupcake schedule. Once again this year, the Bombers will play what is arguably the toughest schedule in the country.
It all gets started August 28th when St. X plays cross-town rival Colerain. After that and on consecutive weekends, the Bombers play defending Indiana 4A champ Indianapolis Cathedral (9/5), 2008 Kentucky 6A semifinalist St. Xavier (9/11), defending Kentucky 6A champ Trinity (9/18), 2008 Kentucky 5A champ Highlands (9/25) and finally Elder, which is ranked #13 in the PrepNation.com pre-season rankings.
Just for good measure, the Bombers will face defending Ohio Division I champ St. Ignatius on October 24.
Now for the good news, quarterback Luke Massa is back for his senior season after a disappointing junior year that ended with a broken collarbone in the middle of last season. As a sophomore Massa led St. X to the Division I title.
So with last year's disappointing 4-6 record behind them, the Cincinnati Enquirer looks at what is ahead as St. X attempts to regain its form and challenge Elder for the Greater Catholic League South title.
