Preseason Landscape
The Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association has released its preseason football rankings for Division 6, offering a first glimpse of the teams that could dominate the upcoming campaign. The top fifteen list includes traditional powerhouses and emerging contenders, each bringing a mix of experienced returnees and fresh talent.
Programs such as Mondovi, Regis and Edgar are positioned near the top, having posted strong performances in the previous season. Their success is anchored by returning starters and dynamic playmakers who will look to build on last year’s momentum.
Key Players to Watch
Among the standouts, quarterback Bode Falkner of Mondovi returns after a solid showing, while Regis will lean on five seasoned starters on both sides of the ball. Edgar, guided by legendary coach Jerry Sinz, brings back 20 letterwinners, including five starters on each unit. Bonduel’s dual-threat quarterback Quinn Wesenberg and running back Carter Moesch are expected to drive the offense, and Saint Mary’s Springs quarterback Zander Lenz will anchor a high‑scoring attack. Other notable names include Rayden Taylor of Belleville, who will lead a revamped conference schedule, and Reece Kelley of Fennimore, a 1,300‑yard rusher poised to make an impact.
Coaches across the division are shaping strategies around their personnel. Jerry Sinz’s experience at Edgar, combined with the offensive line depth at Lomira, suggests a focus on balanced play, while Manitowoc Lutheran’s recent surge adds a defensive edge. The upcoming season will test how these tactical adjustments translate into on‑field results.
