Beechwood won the 2A football championship for the third year in a row. In 2020, they beat Lexington Christian 24-23 in overtime. In 2021, they beat Lexington Christian 23-21. And here's how they did it this year:
Nov. 18, 2022:
Beechwood 49 - 12 Shelby Valley
Lloyd Memorial 41 - 32 Breathitt Co.
Mayfield 28 - 0 Metcalfe Co.
Owensboro Catholic 27 - 33 Lex. Christian
Nov. 25, 2022:
Beechwood 48 - 0 Lloyd Memorial
Mayfield 38 - 28 Lex. Christian
Dec. 2, 2022:
Beechwood 14 - 13 Mayfield (at Kroger Field, Lexington)
This game was an incredible heartbreaker. With 1:13 left in the game, and trailing 14-7, Mayfield scored a dramatic touchdown. But the extra point was no good -- the ball hitting the upright and bouncing away. That missed extra point was the difference in the 2A final. Beechwood recovered Mayfield's onside kick and ran out the clock for its third straight title.
