Wauconda’s running game begins with Liam Carney, a 6-foot-5, 260-pound lineman who got the offense moving in a Class 6A playoff game.
Liam Carney is a perfect fit for Wauconda’s brand of rugged football. So the 6-foot-5, 260-pound junior, who also has a lifetime’s worth of football knowledge and the drive to get better, anchors both lines for the Bulldogs. “Everything starts with me and then stems out to the entire line, and I like that,” Carney said about playing center in particular. “With the physicality that we like to run with, that initial punch that we use to blow people out of the way helps define us.
Carney’s presence helps give Wauconda, which will play fourth-seeded Belvidere North in the second round, its identity. “He’s our anchor up there and is a huge part of what we do,” Wauconda coach Chris Prostka said. “He’s put on more weight this year, but he also got more flexible. We play so many odd fronts with a nose over us, so he takes care of that. He’s getting better technique-wise, and he’s even getting more physical.
