The Abingdon-Avon football team ended their season on Saturday with a loss to the Ridgeview/Lexington co-op in the IHSA 1A quarterfinals. The Tornadoes got off to a great start, jumping out to a 6-0 lead. Ridgeview/Lexington then took over the game, due in large part to their size advantage and strong run game. The Mustangs move on to the semifinals with a 51-12 win over the Tornadoes. Head coach Rick Quinn was proud of the way his team continued to fight against a bigger Mustang squad.
Abingdon-Avon finished their season with a record of 10-2 on the season. This marks the first time the school has made the quarterfinals. The Tornadoes also captured their first Lincoln Trail Conference regular season championship in their first year of participation.
