One hates to play favorites, but, truthfully, there are players in a sports writer’s coverage sphere he just likes better than others. KPGFootball are HUGE Barrett Henley fans. That is why we nominated him for the Associated Press, All-State Football team. That is why we voted him, first team, on […]
Never seen an All-State team published without there being some serious omissions. It’s an imperfect system for sure; susceptible to error; wanting for oversight; and way too dependent on the entry of statistical data onto commonly visited sites where we, as press, have consistently and habitually visited in order to […]
As KPGFootball continues to feature local, area players whom made the AP All-State Football team, we come to a player from Mayfield High School whom this publication was proud to recommend for Team Kentucky’s roster at this year’s “Border Bowl.” The “Border Bowl” was played just this past weekend and […]
Hopkinsville’s Reece Jesse Jr. was selected to our sophomore All-State football team, then the media corp honorably mentioned him for the team not relegated to graduating year (AP). Lots of folks would call both quite the accomplishments and the foundation for having had quite a year. One has to wonder […]
His name is Denarius Barnes. He’s 6-0 tall and weighs around 220 pounds and has just made the AP’s All-State Football team as an “Honorable Mention.” Folks from Hopkinsville to West Memphis, Arkansas, where he played football until moving to the Hopkinsville area for his sophomore season, just call him […]

References to a lunchpail date back to 1890 by most accounts. It was a way for regular working men (not many women worked outside the home in the 1890s) to carry hot food with them to their blue-collar jobs. A blue-collar worker has always denoted one who performs manual labor. […]
The Associated Press’s selection of Garrett Dennis from Louisville Male for its first-team All-State squad is entirely defensible on many levels. Primarily, it is the right choice if you go back to what the team was intended to honor. It’s appropriate if we are selecting players who are good at […]
In case any of you out there, who are fans of Kentucky High School Football, were wondering; the Corbin Redhounds know a thing or two, about a thing or two, especially if one of those two things is winning football games. Corbin very narrowly lost to Central (Louisville) in the Class 3A, State Championship […]
Keyron Catlett had one Hell of a career at Christian County High School in Hopkinsville, Kentucky. It was story-book, really. How many receivers can boast of 213 career receptions, 3,614 career yards receiving, and 36 TDs caught? The number is as finite as the number of fingers on one’s hands, […]
