Impact Player for Maine South
Maine South year in and year out always seems to have a least a handful of college level talent, and the 2024 squad night have as much D1 level talent than any other Hawks team in recent memory. Maine South OL Zak Stoilov, OL Petar Strbac plus OL Eddie Dzae and OL Lazar Babic all are holding D1 level offers this summer. Both senior RB Michael Dellumo and senior QB Constantine Coines had big 2023 seasons and more is expected this fall. Main South senior DL Tyler Fortis has added a handful of D1 scholarship offers this summer and is in line for a big 2024 season.
Looking or a sleeper name to watch this fall for Maine South? Keep an eye on Maine South junior QB Jameson Purcell who is already holding multiple Power 4 level scholarship offers. Purcell has been a known name in recruiting circles since he was in grade school and has all the physical tools and upside to develop into a Power 4 impact player. Winning and earning varsity playing time will be Jameson Purcell's biggest challenge this summer and fall.
EDGY's Preseason Thoughts on the 2024 Maine South Hawks
Maine South and veteran head coach Dave Inserra is coming off a strong 10-2 season in 2023 as the Hawks made the Class 8A state playoff field, defeated Lockport and Belleville East then lost to Barrington 42-40 to end the season. Dave Inserra has developed the Hawks football program into one of the true power programs in Illinois over the last two plus decades. Inserra has posted a record of 231-49 in 23 seasons and has won 8A state titles in 2016, 2010., 2009 and 2008 ands a second place finish in 2021, 2005, 2004 and 2003.
The biggest question facing Maine South this summer?
Can the Hawks reload in a few key positions (WR/DL/DB) and challenge for another 8A state title in 2024? Maine South ha s astrong senior class and several impact players back this fall....and I fully expect this Hawks to again be one of the top programs in the North suburbs and to again be a major threat to win a state title this fall.
