One of Mason County's top basketball players was named Tuesday by the Kentucky Association of Basketball Coaches to be included into the Kentucky Hall of Fame's Centennial Class.

Chris Lofton, who led the Royals to the 2003 state boys basketball championship and went on to play for the University of Tennessee before playing overseas, was named to be a part of the 100 greatest people in the KHSAA's first 100 years. The full class will be unveiled by the 2017-2018 academic year.

Couldn't have picked a better representative. Chris is all first class and has been as long as I have known the young man. I thank him for being who he is because Brent has tried to be like him in every way possible. He's simply a HERO!
