CovCath dominates Madison Southern

Covington Catholic allowed just one touchdown on a kickoff return to start the second half as the Colonels beat Madison Southern, 28-7 in a Class 5A second-round road playoff game on Friday.

Anthony Best opened the scoring with a 1-yard run to cap off a 48-yard drive late in the first quarter, and Ryan McGinness caught a 25-yard touchdown pass from A.J. Mayer with just over two minutes remaining in the first half to make it 14-0.

Mayer and Casey McGinness found the end zone in the second half for CovCath.

The Colonels outgained the Eagles, 433-137.
