The Abingdon-Avon High School football team has had a tough schedule this season, as the Lincoln Trail Conference now has 4 teams with an overall record of 4-1. The Knoxville Blue Bullets, Annawan/Wethersfield Titans, Mercer County Golden Eagles, and Stark County Rebels are all in a tight battle for the LTC Championship. The Tornadoes have played 3 of these top teams, most recently losing to Annawan/Wethersfield by a score of 27-0 in week 5.
Despite the 1-4 start, Head Coach Rick Quinn says that the team is still motivated to finish the season strong and make the IHSA playoffs.
The Tornadoes are at home against the Havana Ducks this Friday for a Lincoln Trail-Prairieland Conference cross-over game. A-Town will finish the season with conference match ups against Princeville, Knoxville, and United.
