Top-Ranked St. X Wins Annual Grudge Match Against Trinity

If defending Kentucky 6-A champ Trinity has any solace from Saturday night's 32-7 whipping by arch-rival St. Xavier, it's in the fact that the Shamrocks had the same thing happen last year in the regular season before hoisting the most important trophy at the end of the year. Last year St. X demolished Trinity 30-6 in the regular season.

In fact, even though St. X has won five of the last six regular season games, it's been Trinity that has turned it around and won the four playoffs match-ups between the two since 2003.

According to the Courier-Journal, this wasn't really a perfect game for either of Kentucky top 6-A schools. St. X is now 5-1 this year, which Trinity suffers it's first loss to a Kentucky school and is 2-4.
