Cougar Football is in Region 1 6-A, Basketball is in District 4 3-A

WLAF News

By Jake Miller

JACKSBORO, TN (WLAF)- As first reported by WLAF on Friday, the Campbell County Cougar Football is moving to Region 1 in Class 6A. Campbell County enters the new region alongside West Ridge, Oak Ridge, Science Hill, Dobyns-Bennett, and Jefferson County. This will allow for five non-region games to be scheduled by the soon to be named new Campbell County Head Football Coach.

The move comes after realizing that the team would be put in an even harder situation in 5A Region 2 than what it already was. With Campbell County, Karns, and Clinton moving out, those teams were replaced with Lenoir City, and a state title contender in Sevier County.

So where did the other Cougar squads land?
