Training Camp Insider: Kenton Ridge
I’ve covered Kenton Ridge in its last two seasons openers, both wins over Northeastern. Last year, after watching Ethan Sharpin throw five touchdowns in a 42-28 victory, I assumed good things lay ahead for the Cougars.
Instead, Kenton Ridge finished 3-7, suffering just its second losing season in head coach Joel Marratta’s first season seasons.
To be fair, everyone knew the Cougars were rebuilding in 2008. They had lost the entire defense and eight starters on offense from the 2007 team that finished 6-4.
This year, many of the players from 2008 do return, including Kevin Johnson, the team’s top rusher and receiver. Leadership from players like Johnson and running back/linebacker Jacob Kelly is important.
“They’ve got varsity experience, and they know what it takes to play at the Friday Night level,” Marratta said. “Hopefully, that filters down to the younger kids. They need to be coaches on the field. When things go poorly at times, we need to regroup and play every down like it’s our last and not hang our heads and try to get the job done.”
