2018 Canton Little Giants Summer/7on7 plans

@ Richwoods 6/23
Did you know...that Canton posted a 5 win season in 2017 but still missed the IHSA state playoff field due to low playoff points. Games against non-conference opponents Charleston (0-9) and Macomb (1-8) along with East Peoria (2-7) and Limestone (0-9) and killed any changes that the Little Giants had as an at large team.
