Multiple reports indicate Heritage Christian Academy has applied for membership to the Kentucky High School Athletic Association. The school has played the last several years in the Kentucky Christian Athletic Association, which has forced them to travel across the state for games and matches. According to KHSAA bylaws, HCA would not be eligible for district or regional post season play during a two year probationary period. It’s also likely the school would be placed in the 8th district and 2nd region, but that has to be voted on by the KHSAA Board of Control.

When John Hale was hired to head up the administration of Somerset Christian School (SCS), he was asked by the pastorsâ council to give the then relatively new school a 3-5 year commitment.
When Hale announced his retirement in mid-December, it heralded the end of a 15-year legacy. âThe place kind of grows on you,â he joked.
Hale told the Commonwealth Journal this week that heâd been planning his retirement for more than a year. In addition to his age, Hale cites that the school now needs âvisionaryâ leadership.
