Reese Belt led the Storm in several critical statistical categories in ’22, what might he do with a full slate of game-action in ’23? @HopkinsCentral @evans02_mike @_CoachManning @minguabeefjerky @1776Bank @PrepSpin @kyhighs @HLpreps @KyHighFootball @MaxPreps

When you look at The Storm’s defensive numbers from ’22 something jumps off the page at the inquisitor. How in the world did a guy who only registered seven (7) games of fun lead the team in such critical statistical categories as TFL’s, QB-sacks, and FF’s (forced fumbles)? Good question…good thing for you this article may have some answers. FL.

Here is a kid who has been out in the working world and realizes that college degree changes his entire career arc. He is getting an opportunity to go to Barbourville, Kentucky and play for John Luttrell’s “Bulldogs.” Coach Chris Manning at Hopkins County Central has made it happen for him. That is the kind of man for whom I would want my son to play. HB.

We are pleased to feature today one of the best athletes to grace a high school field in Kentucky’s graduating class of ’24. Logan Rodgers from Hopkins County Central has been tearing it up around Kentucky since his Kentucky Future Stars days. He has one more tour of the high school landscape and his teammates and he plan to make the most of it. Enjoy this feature from Kentucky’s fastest growing financial institution; setting the standard for excellence in the financial services, Kentucky market. HB.

Okay, Central wanted to win Friday night and wanted to knot its regular season record at 5-5 instead of the 4-6 finish it has experienced. All of that is true. However, there is a component of “next year” in every football program and a constant forward progression which must occur. There are lots of things to which to look forward if you are a Storm-watcher. One of those is the brilliant and composed play of its very young, freshman QB and heir-apparent to the keys to a potent offensive attack. Enjoy the feature. HB.

Jaden Brasher put himself in the KHSAA records books right before our very eyes. We had an agent in the press box who watched the ’23 QB throw five (5) TD passes in the first half of the game with Calloway County. Five (5) TD passes in one half of play isn’t the record, but it is among the best performances in one half of play in KHSAA history. If that isn’t prize package worthy, than what in the heck is? HB.

The Storm have hit the ‘Mother Load’ with McNary and he’s running through defenses like ‘a bull in a china shop.’ @HopkinsCentral @evans02_mike @Yfnmcnary @KYFUTURESTARS @minguabeefjerky @1776Bank @KyHighFootball @kyhighs @PrepSpin @MaxPreps @HLpreps

We have been covering Calil McNary for years. He was a 3X Kentucky Future Star. You will find those guys almost always end up HS stars too. That is certainly the case with McNary, as he has his team sitting pretty through its first three games (2-1) with Todd County calling this coming Friday night. Enjoy the feature. HB.

We love to visit our many friends and locations in the Independence Bank family. Today we visit our branch in Madisonville, Kentucky known far and wide as the “East Center.” Harlee Egbert is among the Storms’ more lethal defenders returning and is also one of the best names in Kentucky High School football. He will draw plenty of ink before his high school journey is through. Enjoy this feature on one of Kentucky’s very finest at the LB/RB positions. Get on by and visit one of our fine branches today and discover what makes Independence Bank’s people, products, and services revolutionary in the financial services industry. HB.

We have written about coaches before now but only in rare and special cases. We would submit to you that Chris Manning at Hopkins County Central is both rare and special and worthy of this feature in every imaginable way. Enjoy this look at a guy who is turning the apple cart upside down in a very positive way around the Hopkins County Central program. HB.
