St. Xavier running back handles elements, delivers victory against top-ranked Trinity

For St. Xavier running back Marlon Harbin , it doesn't matter whether he plays on Friday or Saturday. Or whether it's sunny or raining.

The junior is going to carry the load for the fourth-ranked Tigers .

Harbin scored two touchdowns, leading St. Xavier to a 16-10 home victory over top-ranked Trinity in a battle of Class 6A heavyweights on Saturday.

"We just wanted our kids to have an opportunity to play," St. Xavier coach Kevin Wallace told our Prince James Story . "When you're not in control of events, how you respond is the only way that you can kind of impact the outcome.

"I didn't get all bent out of shape about it. We told our kids, basically, on Thursday, there could be changes and don't worry about it."

Other Week 6 games are scheduled today in the Louisville area.
