Where we’ll be
Josh Moore (@HLpreps) and Matt Goins (@MattGoinsHL) are at the Lafayette-Henry Clay matchup. Lafayette has lost four straight games since opening the season with a win against Bryan Station. Henry Clay started off 0-3 before earning a convincing win at Southwestern and getting a bye week to prepare for the Generals.
Caitlyn Stroh (@caitlyn_stroh) will be at Frederick Douglass-Paul Laurence Dunbar game. Douglass defeated Madison Central last week, its second straight win after losing its season opener at Danville. Dunbar scored for the first time this season at McCreary Central last week but is still looking for its first win.
