No. 17 Wheaton Warrenville South
2014 Record: 7-5 (4-1), won a share of the DuPage Valley Conference title in 2014. Beat Lincoln-Way North and Normal Community before losing to Providence Catholic in the 7A state quarterfinal round.
Why did the Tigers make the @CSNPreps Power Rankings? The Tigers welcome back several players who ended up seeing significant playing time a season ago.
Areas of concern heading into the 2015 season? Can the Tigers survive the newly realigned DuPage Valley conference which includes the addition of Metea Valley, Neuqua Valley, and Waubonsie Valley?
It will be a good season if: The Tigers settle on a quarterback and the offense can produce on a consistent level.
Headliners? Senior running back Jonathon Johnson will be a key in the running game, while senior DE Solomon Jackson is another name to watch.
