Caden Scott is the Bank of Cadiz & Trust Company Superior Performance/Exceptional Quality Feature of the Week @KatherineL58069, @Quinbaggett73, @LasatersCoffee, @minguabeefjerky, @bigassfans, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @davaree_gude6, @TriggFootball, @CountyColonels, @HopHighTigers, @murrayFB

’28 QB looking for his production to shoot upwardly with some good health

Caden Scott is a slightly undersized southpaw who no one really expected to be running QB-1 early in his career. Scott is an accomplished hand at shooting guard in basketball and a dandy outfielder/left-handed pitcher in baseball. Scott is one fine athlete no matter his size or age. In football, Scott played a ton of snaps as a freshman and is firmly implanted at the steering wheel of Trigg County’s luxury liner as a second year guy working toward his third season at the helm. The results have been impressive, particularly his accuracy and efficiency. The argument may be fairly made he is a top five (5) QB in the ’28 graduating class. Matter of fact, we are making that argument, right now! Enjoy this article on a kid whose performance has well exceeded any God-given, anatomical gifts the Lord may have gifted the Scott family. Scott is making the most out of his talents.

The Bank of Cadiz & Trust Company, based in Cadiz, Kentucky, was founded August 7, 1970. The bank obtained trust powers in 1978. 

It is a locally owned, independent bank which has expanded, through the years, to locations in Hopkinsville and Murray in addition to Cadiz. The Bank of Cadiz & Trust Company has focused on community finance and dealing face-to-face with both families and small-business owners while fulfilling customer needs and the dreams of area families and businesses regardless of size or construct.

We, like our area schools, strive for high performance and finding ways to prosper in an ever-changing economic environment. The Bank of Cadiz & Trust Company remains committed to superior performance goals coupled with an exceptional quality of customer service.

A local, young, high school athlete who consistently renders superior performance while achieving exceptional quality is Trigg County High’s, Caden Scott  ’28 QB. Scott is this week’s Bank of Cadiz & Trust Company Superior Performance/Exceptional Quality Feature of the Week.

Cadiz, KY: Caden Scott is the very model of efficiency. The 5’9,” three (3) sport athlete (football, basketball, and baseball) has completed an impressive percentage of his passing attempts in his two seasons of play as the QB-1 with both seasons significantly shortened owing to injury. We are ready to see him get a full season of run in the upcoming junior year.

Health wise, Scott has experienced pretty hard luck. That is what makes this offseason particularly important. We have to get him physically to a level where he can withstand punishment and continue to compete.

Against Hart County (Raiders) last year, the Wildcats fell a few inches short on a two-point conversion at the end of the game costing them what would have been an incredible upset. Against the Marshalls (Marshall County), the team had to play without its all-state RB (Davaree Gude) who was ejected early in the 3rd Q and then, at the end of the game, misfired on a very makable, short FG which would have delivered victory from out of the very jowls of ignominious defeat. 

Two games in a row, at home, both one-point deficits. Trigg found itself sitting at 1-2 when it could have easily been off to a 3-0 start in 2025. We can’t afford such to repeat in 2026.

The Wildcats, in ’25, benefited from some really fine play. Peyton Williams, a ’26 WR/DB about whom we have before written, had a game where he caught three (3) passes for 182-yards and hit pay dirt from 93 and 78-yards. Caden Scott, the subject of this piece and a ’28 QB, unofficially completed eight (8) of his 12-passing attempts in one of his better performances in 2025 for 225-yards and two (2)-TDs against an INT.

Davaree Gude was ejected early in the 3rd Quarter in the game with 5A Marshall County and, before ejection, was well on his way to another Gude-ish performance. The Wildcats will miss Davaree Gude let me promise you.

Williams and Gude will play collegiately next Fall. Scott will be in Cadiz picking up the pieces.

The road doesn’t get easier for the Wildcats as they brace to welcome another sleeve of tough customers to its schedule this coming Fall. The Wildcats will open in the Chevrolet Bowl with Ohio County, play Hart County and Marshall County back-to-back again in ’26, and will get to play “The Rock,” Caldwell County, and Crittenden in succession, before a Ft. Campbell, Mayfield, Todd County, and Fulton County finish. It will take all hands on deck for such a slate.

This is another opportunity to score big RPI points before bracing for 3A district, region, and even commonwealth aspirations, hopes, and dreams. We can’t make it any simpler than that. We’ll see you at the games this coming Fall!
