Morton football offensive line

Despite losing 41-14 to Kankakee in Saturday's Class 5A semifinal, Morton's offensive line — Ian Mutchler, Brayden McMillan, Broc Schmidt, Andrew Hummel and James Sauder — deserves some love for paving the way one of the most memorable seasons by a running back in Peoria-area history. All-stater Seth Glatz rushed for 3,246 yards — second all-time in state history — and 45 touchdowns behind the Hogs.
