Loyola Academy 8A State Champions Team Preview

Loyola is always one of the strongest teams in the state and that continues this year. A younger team with little experience, and a new coach, but a lot of potential and promise. Last year, Loyola went 13-1, with their only loss to Mount Carmel. Ultimately, they finished the job, winning the 8A state championship, defeating Lincoln Way East. Hoping for a repeat in 8A, and having another highly talked about season.
