Compiled 2009 by Edward Earl. ¹ The HPs of Choctaw, Attala, and Winston counties rival for the state prominence. If the Winston county HP loses the rivalry, it still has enough prominence to be the greatest in the county. If Choctaw or Attala (or both) loses, however, several other candidates emerge as possible county prom champs. ² The Tippah and Prentiss county HPs rival for the same prominence. Whichever county loses the rivalry has other candidates for the county prom champ.
