The week ahead: Summer is over
Summer has come and gone. School started back up last week and Monday marks the start of the KHSAA volleyball and soccer seasons. Football starts back up Friday night.
Even though it’s week one, the local Catholic teams aren’t entering the season with a light schedule. The soccer version of the Southside Showdown between archrivals DeSales and Holy Cross is this Thursday.
Assumption’s volleyball team will host on the No. 1 team in the nation, Indianapolis Cathedral, Saturday night, and Mercy hosts archrival Sacred Heart Sunday evening.
Field hockey started last week with Sacred Heart’s Apple Tournament and continues this week. Two champions will be crowned Friday night.
But the day sports fans await is Friday night. Another high school football season kicks off and there is a slate of games scheduled.
Trinity travels to Nashville to play Ensworth, Holy Cross and DeSales will battle for the Hibernian Cup, and St. Xavier will host Ballard as Will Wolford starts his second season as head coach.
