The KHSAA draft realignment plan would bring significant changes for Russell County Football.
In the proposed plan released earlier this week, Russell County would move to District 7 in 4A where they would be joined by three-time defending 4A champion Boyle County, Lincoln County, Wayne County, and Taylor County, which is moving up from playing in Class 3A since 2019.
Under the proposed plan, which is still considered a draft and would need to be approved, Russell County would be the only school in District 7 in the Central Time Zone.
Previously, Russell County played in a district that included Warren East, Warren Central, Franklin-Simpson and Allen County-Scottsville.
The proposed alignment is expected to be brought up at the KHSAA Board of Control meeting this week, with final approval coming either today or next month at the latest.
