Tennessee's No. 1 heads to Louisville
Two unbeaten high school powers, both averaging 40-plus points, collide Friday night in Louisville.
In brief
Two unbeaten high school powers, both averaging 40-plus points, collide Friday night in Louisville. Baylor at Trinity is the rare regular-season game where two state No. 1 teams, both 3-0 and both scoring at will, settle it on the field. Originally reported by High School On SI.
Two unbeatens, one field
Baylor makes the trip from Chattanooga to Louisville on Friday night to face Trinity. Both teams are 3-0 and neither has been seriously tested yet.
The No. 1s of two states
MaxPreps has Baylor first in Tennessee and Trinity first in Kentucky. That makes this an interstate title fight before either state playoff begins.
Baylor is a national name
The Red Raiders sit sixth in the High School On SI Power 25. Trinity tops our Kentucky rankings, so a result here moves the national picture.
Where and when to watch
Kickoff is 7 p.m. ET at Trinity High School in Louisville, Kentucky. The game streams live on the NFHS Network, which requires a subscription.

Georges is the headliner
Baylor senior David Gabriel Georges is the reigning MaxPreps National Player of the Year and a five-star Tennessee commit. The offense runs through him.
Nearly 500 yards already
Georges has rushed for close to 500 yards and seven touchdowns in three games. He scored three times last week in a 51-33 Baylor win.
He is not alone
Mississippi commit Keegan Croucher is a key piece of the Baylor lineup, and four-star junior receiver Antwaun Adams gives the offense a second real weapon.
Trinity scores even more
The Shamrocks average 47 points a game to Baylor's 42. Quarterback Zane Johnson leads an attack that has yet to be slowed down.
They just beat Moeller
Trinity handled Cincinnati power Archbishop Moeller 31-14 last week. The schedule is built to drag the Shamrocks outside Kentucky and prove something.
Berry keeps it moving
Senior running back Jamaurion Berry averages 8.4 yards per carry for Trinity. Add home field in Louisville and the Shamrocks have real edges.
What a win is worth
A road win lifts Baylor's national profile and Georges' case against elite competition. For Trinity, it is a second big interstate scalp in eight days.
“Neither team has lost.”
The main idea
Baylor at Trinity is the rare regular-season game where two state No. 1 teams, both 3-0 and both scoring at will, settle it on the field.
