McLean County may be a team of whom you haven’t heard and Zach Wagner may be a coach with whom you are unfamiliar. However, what that tells me is you haven’t followed the KHSAA and its marquee sport (Football) very closely over the previous decade or so. Wagner is one of the area’s better head football coaches and the clip at which he has been fielding consistent winners in Calhoun, Kentucky is a testament to his ability to coach a football team. McLean runs a system the kids fit well and they consistently challenge for district and even regional supremacy in the area where they play and compete. McLean won another pivotal battle Thursday night and, with it, earned the ability to open the playoffs at home this year. Enjoy the article.

Pour on more steam…Can Muhlenberg take the next step? #Kentuckys #fletcherwlong #LeadershipLegacy #CoachingExcellence #MentorshipMatters #characterbuilding #SportsLeadership #BuildingChampions #kentuckyfootball #highschoolfootball #DisciplineAndDedication #athletics #successmindset #bookstagram #booklovers #fletcherlongauthor

Muhlenberg at Madisonville North Hopkins was a heck of a Thursday night game in Madisonville, KY. Both teams entered the night at 5-1 and the game was a back and forth affair for over three of the four quarters. The problem arose when a couple breaks went against Muhlenberg in the 4th quarter and the team just sort of let down, sort of surrendered. That is the next step for the Mustangs; finishing games. The Mustangs have got to learn how to finish games where the final margin is more a reflection of the game and the degree to which the game was competitive. The final Thursday night was 48-14. Credit the Maroons for carrying the fight to the Mustangs for the full 48-minutes. The game was a bit more competitive than the final score would indicate. Enjoy the feature.

Haden Wise, from Fort Campbell, is the Lasaters Coffee & Tea Wake Up and Smell the Coffee (or Tea) Featured Player of the Week @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @bigassfans, @LasatersCoffee, @FC_FALCONS_FB #Kentuckys #fletcherwlong #LeadershipLegacy #CoachingExcellence #MentorshipMatters #characterbuilding #SportsLeadership #BuildingChampions #kentuckyfootball #highschoolfootball #DisciplineAndDedication #athletics #successmindset #bookstagram #booklovers #fletcherlongauthor

Haden Wise is a guy at Fort Campbell about whom we could publish an article a week. We call him “the little General” around our offices. Wise is a guy who has used this year at the Fort to firmly establish himself as a bone fide football star. He didn’t come into the year expecting to play QB necessarily but there is no denying he has played both RB and QB effectively and well when called upon to do so. Without Wise this season, we are confident in saying the Fort might be winless. We want to go back a week and feature a performance by Haden Wise where he not only gained over 200-yards rushing, scoring twice, but he also registered a pair of tackles, a sack, and an INT. Wise, week in and week out, has been among the offensive leaders for the Falcons football team lining up at QB, RB, WR or wherever else he has been needed. Wise’s multi-faceted, athletic tool belt makes him more, not less, recruitable to colleges around the commonwealth. Enjoy this feature.
