71 Days to Kickoff: Yorkville

Share

School: Yorkville

Head coach: Dan McGuire

Assistant Coaches: Mike Guzaldo, Matt Williams, Ben Graham, Tom Reinge, Joe Nauman, Shawn Schumacher

How they fared in 2014: 8-3 (3-1 Northern Illinois Big 12 East Conference); The Foxes made the 6A state playoff field. Yorkville beat Crete-Monee then lost to Lemont in second round action.

Biggest storyline in 2015: Can the Foxes continue it's recent success under first year coach Dan McGuire?

Names to Watch: TE Austin Avery is a senior has D1 level athletic skills. OLB Joey Naumab, a senior OLB, is a hitter and a leader.

Biggest holes to fill: The Foxes defense will feature just two returning starters in 2015.

EDGY's Early Take: Yorkville has been a great success story over the past few years as Hall of Fame head coach Karl Hoinkes (Oswego) took over and got the Foxes back on track. If Yorkville can reload a bit on defense look out. However the Foxes also play a brutal schedule and need to hit the ground running in Week 1.
