Payton Cope from Allen County-Scottsville is this week’s @1776Bank ‘Revolutionary Player of the Week.’ @Acope01 @ACSFBCoach @acspatriotradio @minguabeefjerky @PrepSpin, @MaxPreps

There is no better time than the present to anoint another Independence Bank Revolutionary Player of the Week. Independence Bank is proud to sponsor a weekly article highlighting players in the areas where Independence Bank flourishes who embody the same type of revolutionary service to their respective football teams which has made Independence Bank unique and special in the banking industry. 

Today we honor ’23 QB, Payton Cope, from Allen County-Scottsville High School. Cope’s ACS High  is not too far from one of the better thought of branches in the Independence Bank family, though (technically) the branch is in Bowling Green and not Scottsville.  ACS High and the Scottsville branch aren’t but 20 or so miles apart.

As one can easily see, Scottsville and Bowling Green are neighbors. Both areas are in relatively close proximity with a hop, skip, and a jump being all that lies between them.

Bowling Green, Kentucky has several Independence Bank branches but there is one conveniently located and an easy find for the Allen County folks, since many of them work in Bowling Green and travel back and forth down that very road (and by that branch) nearly every day. The branch we’re discussing is the Independence Bank Branch located on 1950 Scottsville Road in Bowling Green.

Allen County-Scottsville’s Payton Cope (’23) has been red hot this year. Against Warren Central, Cope completed 10 of his 16-attempts for 266-yards and 2-TDs. 

Jax Cooper (’22) was Cope’s favorite target on the night, catching 6-passes for 146-yards with 1-TD. Thorny Walker (’22) converted all nine (9) of his PATs. 

Will Moore (’22) paced the defense with 11-stops including one behind the line of scrimmage. ACS beat Warren Central, 63-18. 

On the year, Cope has completed 42 of his 79 passing attempts for 742-yards with seven passing TDs. Cope has scored another couple TDs rushing.

Allen County is 2-3 on the year with a home date looming against an always tough Franklin-Simpson squad tonight. The winner of this pivotal contest may stake an early claim to Class 4A, District 2 supremacy.

One thing is certain…for the Patriots to plant its flag they will need all good men to come to the aid of the team. That starts with its junior QB.

Congratulations to Payton Cope for his Revolutionary Play which has earned for him this week’s recognition from the fastest growing bank in the Commonwealth of Kentucky…your friends at Independence Bank.
