I brewed up the Maizey Dukes Kentucky Common from the Zymurgy Jul/Aug 2013 and I want to enter it into the National Homebrew Competition and was stuck on which category to enter the beer in?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cat 23 specialty would be my guess.

Yes category 23-A.  Be sure to include a full description for the judges.  Remember they only know what you tell them about the beer.  They will be trying to judge it against whatever you tell them the beer is and will be looking for balance and what exactly makes it a specialty beer.
