INDIANAPOLIS — Continuing to produce on the gridiron, Magoffin County eighth grader Aden Montgomery competed for Team Kentucky in the 2024 FBU National Championship Central Regional, which was held Saturday, Dec. 7-Sunday, Dec. 8.

A longtime standout, Montgomery split time at linebacker and running back for Team Kentucky.

Montgomery will have an opportunity to make an impact for Magoffin County as a freshman in the 2025 high school football season. Magoffin County Head Coach John DeRossett and MC Offensive Coordinator Nathan Perkins made the trip to watch Montgomery in the FBU National Championship Central Regional.

“Aden played well at linebacker in the first game of the Central Regional,” said DeRossett. “He has a high motor and plays hard. In the second game, he played on offense and had the opportunity to showcase his skills at running back. We got the chance to watch Aden play and had a great time.

We had a good meal with Aden, his mom and aunt after the game on Saturday. Aden is a fine young man, and we are looking forward to having him on the field for us.”
