143 miles separate Jackson County and Louisville Shawnee. The two communities came together in Louisville last night for the Inaugural Kroger KSR Hometown Classic. Shawnee won the football game 40-0.

A celebration of solidarity and a trophy presentation followed the contest. The two teams and two communities became one at the 50-yard line in what evolved into an uplifting harmony from two vastly different programs. The moment was touching, heartwarming, motivating, and a real-life reminder of why we do what we do. The Kroger KSR Game of the Week is about community.
