Lots of good games about this weekend in Kentucky high school football. In this article we go in depth about Middlesboro at Breathitt courtesy of editorial board member Fletcher Long, editor and sports reporter for the Jackson Times-Voice, and then look at some other key area matchups. In each one, we give you what we believe the final score will be. Enjoy the article and the weekend’s slate of games. HB.

Kyle has Middlesboro Rolling Once Again…

We have had some basketball players come over to the gridiron and demonstrate the skills which made them elite on the hardwood make them equally elite on the turf. One of those guys is Warren Central’s Dre Boyd. However, Jabari Kyle is having a “Boyd-ish” football season himself, just at a different position. Coach French has the Yellow-Jackets at 3-1 on the young season and back in discussion for post-season potential. Enjoy the story.

We at Kentucky Prep Gridiron include Clarksville, Tennessee in our sphere owing to it being just across the border from Hopkinsville, Kentucky and largely considered in the same Metropolitan area as Hopkinsville.  As we continue to rev up for the upcoming season, we begin directing, at least partly, some focus on […]
