How does Glenbard East look for the upcoming season?
We are looking good, we have lost a few seniors but we are working hard in the off season and are gonna be a fast and physical team. We have many weapons on both sides of the ball and are looking good. We are looking to be undefeated in are conference and go far in the playoffs. I feel like this can be one of our strongest teams.

I feel like are running back Matt Larson he is fast and shifty and a strong runner. He did good last year and looking to do even better this year. He has been working hard in the off season. Another player is Eric McClain he is a 2 way player both receiver and corner is is fast and explosive and can we the ball very well. On the defensive side our linebacker Gus Winkler is a strong and physical player who blows through lines and hits hard.
What game are you most excited about this upcoming season? I’m most excited about our week 2 game against South Elgin. We lost to them last year in a battle the whole game, but we will get our revenge this year and play them at home.
