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.

We usually dedicate these articles to branches. Today, we dedicate this article to the President of the McLean
County branch of Independence Bank. We talk about our people, products, and services being superior and they are. We thought today we would focus on a person. Congratulations Derek Miller and enjoy the feature and celebrate with us the Revolutionary service, people, and financial products which have caused a revolution in Kentucky’s banking industry. FL.

Zach Wagner runs one of the very high achieving football programs in Kentucky’s Class 2A, particularly on the western end of Kentucky. The Cougars run the Wing-T with a precision which makes its gaining ground on opponents a “given.” The turn-around this year, from 0-3 to the Regional Championship game, was particularly masterful. Read this piece about one of the reasons for the improved play as the season progressed. HB.

You always hear of “Wedding Bells.” Of course who can forget the late Jim-Ed Brown singing about “…all the wedding bells are ringing…” McLean County opponents hear an all-together, different type of Wedding-Bell. These are the type of bells heard after being “rung-up” by Jabin Wedding. Jabin is back for his senior year and McLean has it rolling in Class 2A, District 2. Enjoy this article about this week’s Revolutionary Player of the Week brought to you by our friends at the fastest growing bank in all of the Commonwealth, Independence Bank.
