Per Hazard Herald released July 8, 2009, Austin Delpont, an upcoming senior at Hazard High School, has just been ranked by Prokicker as the No. 1 kicker/punter combo in Kentucky and as the No. 4 kicker/punter in the nation. He is also ranked as the 5th best kickoff specialist in the nation. Prokicker, one of the top three kicking/punting ranking systems in America, ranks athletes through a series of 54 camps held throughout the US, evaluating over 2,000 kickers/punters annually. Ninety-five percent of all Division I and II colleges/universities depend oon these rankings in evaluating potential college athletes.

Congratulations to Austin, a fine young man. He should be a real positive influence to the HHS Bulldog's football team this fall!

He may be switching schools. His mother is now teaching at Letcher Central. LOL. Just joking, she is teaching there but he is staying at Hazard.
