From KNN Al:

 

Hi gang--it's that time of year for the 2008 KNN High School Scoreboard Show.

 

We'll again be using your nominees for Player Of The Week, and the official rankings will come from BluegrassPreps.com.

 

We'll be heard on at least 30 stations around Kentucky, with more on the way. I'll post a full station list as soon as it's finalized.

 

As always, I'd like for all of you to post the stations in your area that air high school games. We'll use reports from those stations in the show as much as possible. If you know the identity of the announcers that's a bonus.

 

When nominating a Player Of the Week candidate, please include the players name, school, size, (ht/wt), class, (soph/jr/sr) and position. Then give an accurate listing of the stats he posted that week. Carries, yards, etc.

 

We'll use all the nominees and give them a mention, and then one will be chosen for POW.

 

Thanks for all the help in advance, and enjoy the season!

Anyone?

I nominate Ft. Campbell Senior Linebacker Josh Carter.

#57

6'2" 235lbs.

 

I quote The Scribe "According to the video replay, Josh Carter had 19 solo tackles, six assists, four tackles for loss, and three sacks."

 

Josh Carter refused to lose and ultimately inspired his team to come from behind against Monroe County in the 2A Semi-Final.

We all know the personal challenges he has went through this season, yet he continues to inspire others!

The following article says it all:

^I'd have to go with that one too!

 

Later.

I'm nominating HHS Jr "Mr. Everything", Austin Collinsworth. This 6'2" 210 WR/KR/PR/DB had a drive killing interception, 3 catches for 63 yds...including a huge 3rd down catch to keep the opening drive alive and 107 yds in kick returns, featuring a scintillating 87 yard return for TD with a "shake & bake" move on the kicker that was priceless! AC caught a 2 pt. conversion and led a "bend but don't break" defensive effort as Highlands defeated Whitley County 42-16 to move into the 5A State Finals game to defend their title!
