Impact Player for Richwoods




Richwoods senior OLB Sean Glover (6-foot-2, 200 pounds) is a lomg and lanky athlete who moves well in space, has some twitch and explosiveness and looks like a kid who has the frame to allow him to add much more good weight and size the college level.

Looking or a sleeper name to watch this fall for Richwoods? Keep an eye on Richwoods senior WR Bryce Hopkins along with senior DE Gabe Martinez who are strong athletes who have a chance to boost their overall recruiting stock this summer and fall.

EDGY's Preseason Thoughts on the 2024 Peoria Richwoods Knights

Richwoods and head coach Jim Ulrich posted 3-6 overall record in 2023 but after the season was awared a 4th win over Peoria when the Lions were found by the IHSA to have used an ineligible player in several games in 2023. The Knights last made the IHSA state playoff field in 2017 and has posted a 7-21 reocrd in three seasons for head coach Jim Ulrich.

The biggest question facing Richwoods this summer?

Can the Knights find a way to get back towards the top of the Big Twelve conference and back into the IHSA state playoff field in 2024. Richwoods will lean on an experienced offense back in the fold with 6 returning starters including 3 starters back on the Knights offensive line. Look for Richwoods to add some depth and they will also need to replace some key positions (QB/DB) as well this summer.
