Welcome to Year Two!
St. Paul, MN
With school starting up again it’s an exciting time to be a high school sports
fan. The two-month lull is over and we have ten action-packed months to look
forward to. No one is more excited than our staff as we kick off our second year
of coverage in the Twin Cities.
I have to admit that when I start to get down about summer leaving... More

Let the Games Begin!

It’s Football Time
Eastern Oklahoma
The Backyard Bowl is a huge event for the city of Tulsa and the communities that surround the area. We thought this season would be special if we brought back a few of the old names you remember from years past. So, VYPE built a time machine and traveled back to find some of the greatest players to have played in this rivalry and who from this year’s squad will... More

Central Indiana
Welcome to VYPE! We have a new logo, a new Web site and a new look. Oh, and of course, a new name.
As a play on the words “varsity” and “hype,” we are celebrating the latest in high school sports. You might ask why we changed our name, but we’ll never give away our secrets.
Just kidding, of course.
The answer is quite... More

A Letter From The Director
Western Arkansas
I want to first thank all those involved with the inaugural Vype Select 7 on 7 Tournament Presented by McDonald’s. We had 20 plus volunteers who made it possible. It was a HUGE success with over 30 teams, 1,000 plus people per day and over 850 high school athletes on the campus at the University of Arkansas July 11 & 12. There is no question that the tournament would not... More

A Letter From The Editor
Raleigh - Durham, North Carolina
Years ago, I was a reporter for a weekly newspaper in Eastern North Carolina, covering everything from 4-H to Friday night lights.
On one particular Friday night, while patrolling the sidelines of a football game, looking for that great shot, the big play came out of the blue – a pass and a leaping catch. My view through the lens went dark when virtually every player on the field... More

Mutual Inspiration
Louisville, Kentucky
A few days ago, I went though a drive-through for a quick lunch. The young woman at the pick-up window spotted the magazine logo on my shirt and said, “I want to be in your magazine!”
I loved hearing that! It tells me that the athletes view an appearance in the magazine as a symbol of their achievement—a way to recognize their success that motivates them to achieve their... More

They say it’s your birthday…
Central Kansas
Can you believe it! HSSTM-VYPE is officially one year old! Can that be possible?
It is hard to believe that we are back where we started one year ago…another new school year about to begin with players, coaches and communities preparing for another high school football season. Our cover has a very familiar face on it. Seems like this Brown kid is pretty good, huh?
HSSTM-VYPE... More

Ever wonder if it's all for you? It is.
Central Indiana
We’ve been teasing our new name and brand, VYPE, for roughly a month now. Just like Christmas, we’re sticking a big “DO NOT OPEN” tag on it until we officially debut the VYPE brand next month. But, by now, you’ve had a sneak peek at our logo and last month we launched our new Web site, www.VYPE.com.
As part of our goal to cover the lives and lifestyles of... More

Collin County’s First VYPE Football Preview
Collin County, Texas
Is it football season already? If not, it’s definitely football preview season.
As you can see, we’ve devoted the majority of our pages to VYPE’s first Collin County high school football season (don’t worry, VYPE has not gone all-football, all the time) and we’re pretty proud of the results.
There are many people to thank, from the many coaches who contributed information about their teams to our cover... More

Bring on football weather.
Fort Worth - Denton, Texas
I was having difficulty coming up with something to write about this month. Several times I sat down in front of the computer and nothing came out. Then, on a mid-July afternoon, I walked outside to seek inspiration. It came in the form of 100-degree heat.
Sweating after only a few minutes of walking around outdoors, it occurred to me that thousands of middle school and high school football... More
