The 2024 high school football season was a good one for Warren County’s teams. Warren Central reached the MHSAA Class 6A semifinals, St. Aloysius and Porter’s Chapel Academy both reached the second round of the playoffs, and 10 individual Warren County and school records were set.
A dozen players were also selected to the MHSAA or MAIS all-state teams, and nine played in state all-star games.
This week we celebrate all of their accomplishments by unveiling the 2024 Vicksburg Post All-County offensive team for Warren County. The 15-man squad is led by Porter’s Chapel Academy quarterback Jase Jung, the Post’s Offensive Player of the Year.
Jung set every single-game, season and career rushing record on the books in Warren County. He finished with 3,712 rushing yards and 48 touchdowns this season, and 6,422 yards and 87 touchdowns for his career.
In Week 2 against Delta Academy Jung set the Warren County single-game records for yards (532) and touchdowns (7). That was the first of his five 300-yard rushing games this season. In the first 100 years of football in Warren County, there had been nine total and no one had more than one.
The 14 other members of the All-County offense, as well as the 18 chosen for the All-County defense, all had excellent seasons. Scroll through the photo gallery above to see who made the team and their achievements.
The All-County offense also appears in our Tuesday print edition, available now. The defense will be in the Dec. 28-29 print edition and online this weekend.
Congratulations to all!
