Biggest storyline in 2015: Can the Wolves develop their young and inexperienced offense?

Names to watch: Linebacker Nik Wadsworth is a major playmaker for the Wolves defense, and safety Kaelub Newman has high Division-I level skills and potential.

Biggest holes to fill: The Wolves need to replace eight graduated starters on offense and are very inexperienced on the offensive line.

EDGY's early take: If the defense can step up early, Oswego East can make a potential return to the IHSA state playoffs this fall.
