Athletic Department Issues Reminder of Behavior Policy
As winter sports start, parents/guardians/spectators are reminded of the behavior policy for Allen County-Scottsville High School sporting events at all levels of play. Parents, guardians, fans and spectators who violate the policy will lose the privilege of supporting AC-S student-athletes at home contests.
The first part of the policy centers on individuals ejected from an athletic event. The policy is that if a spectator is ejected by a game official or a school administrator, the spectator must leave immediately from the contest and cannot attend any contest on the same day at any venue on the campus. He/she will then be prohibited to attend the next two home events. The ejected individual must also complete the online National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) Sportsmanship Course. The completion certificate must then be presented in person in a meeting with school administration.
If a second offense occurs within the same school year, the individual will be prohibited from attending any AC-SH home athletic event for six months. A third offense in the same school year will result in a one-calendar year suspension from AC-S home athletic events.
“Student-athletes, coaching personnel, and spectators share the responsibility in making a high school sporting event a successful one,” explains the Patriot Athletics Code of Conduct and Sportsmanship Statement. “By doing your part, the event can be one that shows mutual respect and displays pride in your school. When entering an athletic facility, we ask that all participants and spectators conduct themselves with a high level of dignity no matter the outcome on the scoreboard. We are committed to providing a competitive environment for student-athletes to showcase pride in themselves, their school and their community. We aim to promote honor and dignity through wins and losses. Please help us to make AC-S a great place to compete and attend competitions for all players, coaches, officials, and spectators.”
The second policy implemented last year regards the contact between parents/guardians and AC-S coaches.
“No parent/guardian may make contact with a coach that relates to, but not limited to, playing time or management decisions within 24 hours of the perceived incident,” the policy reads. “After the 24-hour period, parents/guardians may correspond with one another in a respectful manner via online communications (school email, Parent Square, etc.).”
A violation of the “24-hour rule” will be handed on a case-by-case basis, which will include meeting with AC-S athletic administration. The meetings could result in suspension from AC-S home athletic events.
Fans also are reminded to adhere to the Kentucky High School Athletic Association’s statement on sportsmanship, a statement that is required to be announced before each game or match. The ACS announcements also include a simple reminder to fans and spectators.
“Please let the players play, the coaches’ coach, the officials to officiate, and the spectators to be positive.”
Anyone with questions about the policies can contact Allen County-Scottsville athletic director Brad Hood or assistant athletic director Cameron Cook.
“PatCon is Allen County-Scottsville High School’s signature event designed to celebrate student learning, creativity, and innovation.” explained AC-SHS principal Shane Humphrey. “The event brings together students, teachers, and community partners for an evening focused on showcasing the amazing work happening in classrooms.”
The agenda for the evening involves student presentations related to their ongoing Project Based Learning (PBL) activities.
“During PatCon, students present PBLs, performances, and demonstrations that reflect real-world problem solving, collaboration, and critical thinking—skills developed through project-based learning and hands-on experiences,” Humphrey added “The theme---Create, Innovate, and Collaborate---captures the spirit of the evening, as students proudly share their ideas and achievements with peers, staff, and visitors.”
Not only does PatCon highlight student achievements but also reflects the connection between the high school and the Scottsville-Allen County community.
“PatCon also celebrates school pride and strengthens community connections, showcasing how Allen County-Scottsville High School empowers students to become innovative thinkers and future-ready leaders.” Humphrey noted.
PatCon starts at 5 p.m. and lasts until 7 on Thursday, November 20. Parents and guardians as well as community leaders and citizens are encouraged to visit the school and see first hand the hard work of the students.
Allen County-Scottsville senior Barton Rutledge made six birdies in a three-under round of 69 to capture first place in the Greenwood Invitational Monday (August 4) at the Bowling Green Country Club.
Rutledge---a Western Kentucky University commit---birdied the par-5 second hole, the par-4 six hole, and the par-4 eighth hole to post a 33 on the first nine holes. On the back nine, three boogies threatened Rutledge’s chances for the win. However, a birdie on the par-five 14th hole and back-to-back birdies on the 17th and 18th holes gave the Patriot senior a one stroke victory over freshman Miller Osbourne from Bethlehem.
The result was Rutledge’s first victory of the season after a series of solid finishes in tournaments in recent weeks in Franklin, Campbellsville, Bowling Green, and Glasgow. Rutledge’s win came at the BGCC course where he tied for second last fall in the Leachman Buick-GMC-Cadillac Kentucky High School Athletic Association state golf championship.
Senior teammate Owen Talbott posted a nine-over-par round of 81 to tie for 43rd in the 116-player field. Talbott shot a 38 on the front nine prior to dropping to a 43 on the last nine holes. AC-S freshman Lane Temple carded an 87, eighth-grader Simon Stamper finished with an 88, and junior Kaden Stinson closed with an 89.
The Patriots host Warren East Thursday afternoon around 4:30 at the Scottsville Country Club in their first head-to-head match of the season. Saturday, the golfers return to tournament play at the Shady Hollow Golf Course.
At Allen County Schools, we believe that strong, consistent communication is essential to student success, as well as family & community engagement. That’s why we’ve taken intentional steps to streamline how we share information, making it easier for you to stay informed, connected, and involved.
