Biggest storyline in 2015: Can the Red Raiders make a playoff run in 8A?

Names to watch: Senior QB Anthony Binetti - one of the top signal callers in the state for 2015 - and LB Tim McCloyn, a speedy defensive specialist that can play end or linebacker for the Red Raiders.

Biggest holes to fill: The Red Raiders welcome back 14 starters this fall, but who's the next man up? Depth is vital for the 8A Red Raiders who play in the 6A/7A sized Fox Valley Conference. 

EDGY's Early Take: Anyone who saw Huntley in 2014 knows that this season could be big for the Red Raiders. Huntley is in contention for the FVC crown in 2015 and could potentially be a very tough out in 8A.
