2025 Red Grange All County Team
The annual Red Grange All County team has been announced. The 2025 All County team is listed below and thanks for all of the DuPage County head coaches for help in assembling this impressive group of scholar athletes.
The Red Grange Award All County committee sends it’s prayers and condolences to the family of 1989 Red Grange Player of the Year Award winner Jeff Thorne. Thorne was a standout quarterback at Wheaton Central and Eastern Illinois. He followed his father John Thorne to Wheaton Warrenville South and North Central College as an assistant coach. Jeff Thorne took over the North Central College head coaching position once his father retired in 2014 and led the Cardinals to the D3 National Title in 2019.
