As Barren County gears up for the second round of the Class 5A football playoffs, the Trojans know at least one of their players will be going to Lexington in the first week of December.
Defensive lineman Kataviun Fryar was voted the Lineman of the Year for Class 5A, District 2, by the Kentucky High School Football Coaches Association. Fryar is a senior at Barren County. He and other district players of the year from around the state will be recognized during the state finals Dec. 4-5 at the University of Kentucky’s Kroger Field.
Fryar, in his second year playing for the Trojans, has registered 95 total tackles this season. He has 44 solo tackles and 51 assisted tackles. He also has 5.5 sacks and nine tackles for loss. During his junior season, Fryar registered 71 total tackles and 2.5 sacks.
Barren County travels to Owensboro on Friday night to face the defending Class 5A state champions. Kick off is set for 7 p.m. The Trojans punched their ticket to the second round with a 41-0 win over Graves County last Friday.
