Did You Know That...Lemont head coach Bret Kooi has posted a 33-4 overall record in 3 seasons in change of the Indians program.
Top Impact Player for Lemont in 2017? Senior WR Austin Nagel. Nagel is just a steady play maker for the Indians and is also very capable of playing in several other spots on the field id asked.
Biggest Concern heading into 2017? Can the Indians find a quarterback this summer? With 13 returning starters back (6 offense 7 defense) Lemont has a good mix of experience and skills for 2017..
EDGYTIM's Way Too Early Take on the 2017 Lemont Indians?
At this stage you can almost pencil in Lemont to be at the top of the South Suburban Blue and to also be a state ranked team in Class 6A. The Indians have remained one of the most consistent winning programs in the south suburbs. I fully expect Lemont to again be in the state playoffs and to also be a state title contender in Class 6A this fall.
