Lions Club All-Star High School Football Classic

The Kensington Lions Club All-Star High School Football Classic is a high school football all-star game held in the Buffalo metropolitan area. All stars from Western New York are assembled into a "North" team (mostly from Niagara County, New York) and a "South" team (mostly from Erie County, New York). The game does not draw players from the Southern Tier, due to the much less populated school districts in that territory; teams there instead participate in the Don Raabe Big 30 Charities Classic. Its location varies each year.

The 2012 contest was the 37th in the game's history.[1] The South currently holds a 21-16 overall record; the North won three consecutive games between 2007 and 2009, while the South rebounded to win the 2010 and 2011 contests.[2][3][4] The North won the 2012 contest.[5]
