Football preview: Urbana wants to continue success

By Brian Plasters | Wednesday, August 19, 2009, 06:51 AM

When Urbana needed a new high school football coach, the Hillclimbers turned to Geron Stokes, a 2003 grad.

He played, and coached, under Dave Carroll. Carroll was well liked and built a winning program at Urbana. Now it’s Stokes’ job to continue the tradition.

The biggest change fans will see this season is on offense. A strong offensive line, tight ends, fullbacks, and tailback Josh Calhoun hope to run up and down the field.

Leading tackler Braydon Gomes is back, along with tackle offensive tackle Brandon Herren (6-foot, 269 pounds).
