Five Norris Middle School football players will compete in the Tennessee-Kentucky Futures game Saturday night at Eastern Kentucky University.

Eighth-graders Jackson Davis, a linebacker, and Trenton Engle are slated to participate in the contest. Engle is an offensive lineman for the Senators.

Wide receiver Nash Pope, a seventh-grader at Norris, will also compete in the game.

The Senators also have a pair of sixth-graders on the roster for the annual game, which pits the top players from Tennessee and Kentucky against each other.

Defensive back Steven Blakney and linebacker Skyler Whitson will also suit up for the Tennessee All-Star Team.
