INEZ — Two Martin County Middle School football standouts have earned spots among the state’s elite. Eighth-graders Chucky Leonard and Braxten Pack have been selected to play in the 2025 Kentucky Middle School Football Association All-Star Game.

Leonard and Pack were invited to an all-star tryout Nov. 9, where they competed against top middle school talent from across Kentucky. This week the pair received the news that they made the 2025 KYMSFA All-Star Team and were invited to the 15th annual All-Star weekend.

The event is set for Nov. 28-30 for a full weekend of football featuring some of the most skilled young athletes in the state. In addition to the game, Leonard and Pack will participate in the All-Star combine, giving them three days of practices, evaluations and competition in front of coaches and evaluators.

The all-star game is scheduled for Nov. 30 at 10 a.m. at George Rogers Clark High School in Winchester.
