Coaches select #12, Max Montgomery as the Polk County Farm Bureau Insurance Player of the Game for week #2 vs Harding Academy.

Max was born in Mena and is the son of Clint and Telissa Montgomery and is the grandson of Jeff and Penny Montgomery.

\r\nAfter high school, Max plans to attend the University of Arkansas Fayetteville and join the Air Force's ROTC program. Shown presenting Max with week #2's Farm Bureau Insurance game ball is Head Coach Craig Bentley and local Farm Bureau Insurance agent, Mitch Sikes.
