While the high school football season may still be a couple months away, the Winona Times/Carroll Conservative newspapers will begin their coverage of the 2019 season next week as the first member of the Winona Times/The Conservative’s ‘Eleven Players To Watch’ is unveiled.
Coaches from Winona High School, Winona Christian School, J.Z. George, and Carroll Academy all nominated players for the elite preseason team. Sports writers Robbie Robertson and Austin Bishop reviewed the nominations and chose the players who will be honored.
They will be unveiled, in no particular order, on a weekly basis beginning with the June 5 edition of the paper.
The idea behind this series of in-depth articles on the local student-athletes is to give football fans in the two-county area an idea what players to be on the lookout for in 2019.
The series will conclude prior to the 2019 football season with the publication of the 2019 Football Preview, which will include in-depth coverage of each football team in Carroll and Montgomery Counties.
