76th Annual Stark County High School Football Awards Show – the All County Winners

It’s time to honor the BEST OF THE BEST

We did it!  We made it through what was a strange, different and at times difficult 2020 High School Football season.  Congratulations Stark County!

Now it’s time to honor the best of the best!  As you might imagine, we at News/Talk 1480 WHBC are not able told hold our annual in-person banquet at Skyland Pines as we do each year.  And while we are disappointed that get together will be absent this year, that has not stopped us from selecting our All County Offense, All County Defense, Stark County Player of the Year, Stark County Coach of the Year, The Jim Muzzy Scholastic Achievement Award Winner and the Jim Johnson Sportsmanship Award Winner.  Each School has named it’s team MVP as well.

And although we won’t get together for a meal, we are creating a MUST SEE TV event on Wednesday, December 2nd.  The All County teams will be honored and the winners of our TOP 4 awards will be announced!  The broadcast will be seen on WIVM on Spectrum and Massillon Cable and will be streamed live on our website as well.  More details to come.

In the meantime…Congratulations to our Stark County honorees as voted on by Stark County’s High School Football Coaches:
