August 4, 2019 Henry Lyon 0

We thought it would be fun to look in on one of the Kings of Kentucky Football, the Beechwood High School Tigers. The boys from Fort Mitchell have put up both an enviable and unmatched record of sustained excellence which includes 3 State 1A football titles in a row (2016, 17, 18), one runner-up (2015), 5 Regional Titles and appearances in the Semis (2009, 10, 11, 12, and 14) and a regional runner-up in 2013. Over that decade the Tigers have averaged an 11-3 mark per season and won slightly over 78% of the games in which it has played. Needless to say, they don’t rebuild, they reload. How do they look in 2019? Well, let’s just see…Enjoy the article.

Connor Marshall (Class of 2020) has come into his own, looking for big senior year

August 1, 2019 Henry Lyon 1

How was Ray Graham able to step in and turn around a Thoroughbred football program in Cynthiana, Kentucky (Harrison County) which had won a total of 9 games from 2014-2017? Well, it certainly didn’t hurt to have a Marshall on hand. Coach Graham had previously coached two other Marshalls, one named Bubba, the other named Cliff. Now he’s coaching Connor. It would appear Connor is on the cusp of a big, big year.

Call us sentimental but we decided to put up a little article hoping to describe for you, the reader, just a little about what the game of football means to us here at KPGFootball. It’s August 1 and it is time to buckle the chin-strap and get down to business. This is the time where men are made and heroes are found.

“Here at the Rock…” our look at Rockcastle County on the eve of the 2019 HS football season (featured photo credit: Mandy Lynch)

At KPGFootball, we just can’t think of Rockcastle County’s high school football team without thinking of Deputy Barney Fife, from the Andy Griffith Show, launching into his speech to inmates in the Mayberry County Jail which seemingly always began with, “Here at the Rock…” The boys from Mt. Vernon, Kentucky will hit you like an inmate pounding a rock with a sledge-hammer. Here’s a look at the Rockcastle Rockets and where they figure to be, personnel-wise, heading into 2019’s season.

Adam McCune, football is a family tradition (Featured Photo: Brendon Miller, Bluegrass Sports Nation)…

A lot of people questioned the legitimacy of our Class 5A poll because we didn’t have Montgomery County’s Indians among the top-ten teams. The mild uproar was understandable as Egli’s Indians have scalped 19 of the previous 25 opponents over the 2017 & 2018 seasons. Players like Adam McCune, and his brother Luke before him, are just two among many reasons for the run. No one should be surprised when a player with the surname “McCune” turns out to be a fantastic high school player. Heck, it’s a family tradition.

Is 2019 McKenzie’s Chanse at QB for Perry County Central?

July 29, 2019 Henry Lyon 0

We are always looking for undiscovered talent. We search far and wide to deliver to our readers news of players who are often undiscovered and under-covered until we come along. Well we believe we have done it again with Chanse McKenzie. We believe McKenzie will have a monster year for the Commodores and solidify his hold over the QB position offensively as well as contribute more meaningfully to the defense at LB. Enjoy this article.
