The SDHSAA high school football season has officially kicked off with 11AAA-11A teams starting practice on Aug. 12.
Harrisburg looks notably strong, returning many key pieces from an 8-3 team a year ago. Sam Knuth, the top quarterback in the state, is back to lead what should be a pretty explosive offense. The rising senior committed to St. Thomas in July. The Tigers’ biggest losses come at the wide receiver position where they graduated some of the most talented players in the state, but Harrisburg coach Brandon White is confident they have players ready to step into larger roles.
Still, 11AAA is as open as it’s been in recent years, and there are still a core five-to-seven teams contending for the 11A crown.
Sioux Falls Lincoln will return a strong defense led by South Dakota State commit Luke Krempges but they have plenty of question marks on offense after graduating Jack Smith and Tate Schafer..
Sioux Falls Washington has made a jump in the offseason, adding key talent to their roster including junior wide receiver Dveyoun Bonwell-Witte, who’s received offers from Nebraska, Wisconsin, and more. They also return talented quarterback Tommy Hoffman.
This list includes all teams in the Sioux Falls area, regardless of class.
