Which Northern Kentucky high school football teams are in the latest media poll?
The newest edition of the Kentucky high school football media poll has been released.
This poll sees the fewest changes from the previous week as many teams from across the state had a week off from competition.
There is sure to be a shake-up in Class 1A as Newport and Newport Central Catholic, who are both coming off a bye week, meet on Friday night.
The poll is a result of the votes of 24 media members from various outlets throughout Kentucky. The votes are compiled by Jason Frakes of the Louisville Courier-Journal.
Here are the complete polls, with first-place votes in parentheses.
