Fifty Years of Lincoln County High School Football: 1974-2024

Lincoln County (KY) Highschool was formed in 1974 to consolidate the then-existing five county schools into one central high school. This book has been fifty years in the making and details the efforts made to replace the county’s inadequate schools with a modern, centralized one. Football has been played by school teams in Lincoln County for at least 130 consecutive years, dating back to an 1894 game between Stanford Common Public School and Stanford Academy private school. That represents several generations of continuous interscholastic football in our county. This book also delves into the athletic history of each of the separate schools in Lincoln County, highlighting their mostly basketball histories in the Kentucky High School Athletic Association. The book summarizes each of Lincoln County High School’s fifty football seasons and highlights the top individual performances. There is biographical information about each of the thirteen head football coaches as well as the school’s first administrators. There is something here for sports fans and local history buffs alike. — ASIN: B0DF12SZ8N | ISBN13: 9798334828520 | ISBN-13: 979-8334828520
