Impact Player for Batavia
Batavia senior to be QB Ryan Boe (6-foot-3, 205 pounds) has been leading the Bulldogs offense since his sophomore season. Boe, who is an effective pocket passer along with a good sized, all around impressive athlete is in line for a big 2023 senior season for the Bulldogs. The Bulldogs have a tom of talent year in and year out including the 2023 roster....but if this team can make a deep post-season run look for Ryan Boe to have a huge season for Batavia.
EDGY's Quick Take on the 2023 Batavia Bulldogs:
Batavia and head coach Dennis Piron has built the Bulldogs program into a tear in and year out state title contender in Class 7A. Batavia in 2022 posted a 6-3 regular season record but then got on a Class 7A post season roll. The Bulldogs made the Class 7A state playoff field and defeated Rockford Guilford, Hersey, Yorkville and Lake Zurich before losing to Mt. Carmel in the Class 7A state title game. Batatvia has made the IHSA state playoff field in 11 straight seasons under Dennis Piron and led the Bulldogs to state titles in 2013 and 2017 along with last season's state final runner up-.
The biggest question I see for Batavia in 2023? Can the Bulldogs reload in some key positions including replacing several key multi-year starters gone to graduation this summer? The Bulldogs always find a way to reload and the offense will be asked to carry the load early while the defense gets some experience, and I fully expect this team to again challenge for the rugged Dukane conference titlw along with being a state title contender in 2023.
