I am assuming someone will know the other local kids on this list, but I am highlighting former GW Hitter Ben Marcus, Jr Wash U as a D3 Preseason 1st Team selection.
Ben played LB for the '14 & '15 Hitters. Kid was all-conference in '16 as a Soph and is the brother of Nathan Marcus who some may remember from the '12 7A Title team and is the starting TE for Vandy.
Figure we can start a thread for calling out some former IHSA ballers gaining recognition at the next level.

DE Billy Douds North Central (Ill.) Sr. Geneva, Ill.
LB Tom Sora North Central (Ill.) Sr. Morton Grove, Ill.
