[64SUR]

I blame solely mysonis55 for not submitting any stats....On a sidenote this is a shame on the AP All-State team leaving off mayfield player :Sad04: somebody screw mayfield from 64SUR......how in the hell did mayfield beat Williamsburg. :igiveup:

[Mayfieldsportsfan]

Congrats to the kids that made it. :Thumbs:

Not having any Mayfield players is a joke. :lame:

The Mayfield Messenger sucks!

[#1 Blackcat Fan]

Congrats to all of these young men.

[Cellking]

Cong: to all players that made team. No Mayfield players??? What a Joke!!!!

[Spirit100]

Congrats to a great group of football players. Continued success on and off the gridiron!

Sidenote:

This media "bunch" are bovine fools for not putting Brenan Kuntz on this team.

[64SUR]

CONGRATULATIONS TO WILLIAMSBURG PLAYER
2nd team DL....Chris Helton
2nd team DL....Ethan Wilson

HONORABLE MENTIONS
QB...Dalton Sizemore
WR...Cory Shelton
WR...Skyler Griffith
LB....Jefferson Patrick

P.S...All of these player will be back nexts year 1A fans except for Dalton Sizemore. :Cheerlead

[EKUAlum05]

DB Sani Warren of Belfry....

LHL Class of the Commonwealth (Top 22 Players)
AP 1st Team All-State DB
CJ 1st Team All-State DB
Battle of the Bluegrass All-Star Team
National Guard Border Bowl All-Star Team

Yet...

WYMT has them as "honorable mention" on their defense for the All-Mountain Team while naming him 3A POY at the same time. HAHA


... Congrats Sani! Even if your local news station is a little confused.. well earned honors! Only fitting that a kid who selflessly played 4 years who only cared about team accolades and not personal accolades is able to end up as perhaps one of the most decorated Belfry players in School History when it is said and done.

[PaytoPlay]

What?

This list is a joke. I don't even mean those who made it. (Congrats to those who did). The way it is put together is pathetic. 3 QB made "second" team.

[TigerBlues]

Big congrats to Cody McPeek, first team all state ! Wow!

[sportscritic]

I see that most players come from newspaper cities. No floyd county boys but Chase Hall. Lol I hate that newspapers and members of the AP have watered down this system. People talk about the CJ, but block voting happens in the AP as well!

[FlippedOut]

AP means press selections, I know you know that. They vote on the kids they cover. You don't have a paper or sports editor to vote for your kids they will not make it. With that said , someone in Mayfield needs to fire their sports editor.

[Pirate1991#8]

The Appalachian News Express is a joke...Two Shelby Valley kids over whats in the Covered area...Must be related to the sports editor....and I'm sorry chase hall was a beast in 1A..but he wouldnt have touched the ball at Belfry....I just bought my Last Appalachian News express....

[blue1424]

Wow, Lawson Page didn't even get honorable mention? 3200 yards passing, 600 rushing and 40 TD's this year. Not to mention nearly 8,000 yards passing, 1500 rushing and over 100 TD's for his career, plus 3 regional championships, 2 semi-state championships, and 1 state championship. That kind of QB at least deserves an honorable mention. Oh well. Congrats to all who made the team!

[Bear_Paw]

Congratulations to Zack Caldwell and Carson Whithead. I honestly believe Caldwell has a chance to be the best OL out of Harlan County since George Massey.

[CatMomma]

Congratulations to Bell County's Justin Green, Justin Warwick, Cody Griffin & Nathan Murray 2013 All State Honorable Mention!

[oldcardfan]

Did the 2013 version of the Mayfield Cardinals have 1st and 2nd team all staters this year? No, Did they have a few honorable mentions? Yes Did they get honorably mentioned? No
The Mayfield Messenger sucks as far as covering a game the articles were pathetic this year, Barry Danowski, who freelances for them does a hell of a job but the regular person that covers football sucks. Tell him I said it

[WhyLie]

Great to see kids from Bell on there. Well deserved. Glad to see Nathan , atleast someone saw how good this kid is.

[TigerBlues]

The Appalachian News Express is a joke...Two Shelby Valley kids over whats in the Covered area...Must be related to the sports editor....and I'm sorry chase hall was a beast in 1A..but he wouldnt have touched the ball at Belfry....I just bought my Last Appalachian News express....

I'm sorry, Chase Hall could carry the ball for any team in Ky.

[new o]

Chase Hall could play for any team.

[RunItUpTheGut]

Congratulations to Zack Caldwell and Carson Whithead. I honestly believe Caldwell has a chance to be the best OL out of Harlan County since George Massey.

I think it depends on how hard Granny Bear trains him this offseason nicker:

[Panther Thunder]

Congrads to Auxier from JC.

Takes TWO votes to make honorable mention.

Only 15 people voted.

You only vote for two QBs period (one for first team, one for second team).

Who would you vote for?
- Barker (UK commit)
- Bonnafon (UofL commit)
- Hayes (never lost as a starter, IIRC)

Give me 4-5 options, sure Page makes my list (Central Hardin's Krupinski, The News-Enterprise Area Offensive Player of the Year, beat Page and McCracken's Hughes as well. He didn't make HM either).

But with only two picks, that's tough to ask a voter to pick Page over a D-1 commit (All-American Game invite Barker, Bonnafon signed with an 12-1 team) or an unbeaten player (Hayes).

Maybe Collins' BACKUP QB should have made All-State after throwing the "Pass Heard 'Round The Commonwealth."

Only one kid from JC made it. Congrads Brad!!

[new o]

The Newsome kid from Shelby Valley is a very good player. He has started since he was a freshman and played about 5 different positions. Some big colleges/universities have inquired about him.

[pigskin1987]

WOW this All State team is a joke. WR: Cam Cheuvront, Somerset 1st Team

[WhyLie]

Just a shout out to our local papers the Pineville Sun and Middlesboro Daily for helping all the kids in this area.

[freeagent]

great to see kids from bell on there. Well deserved. glad to see nathan , atleast someone saw how good this kid is.

AMEN!

[freeagent]

Congrats to everyone selected...especially the Bell County Boys!
