 2018 Preview 


       Ellwood Christian finished the 2017 season with a disappointing 0-9 record. Last year Ellwood Christian finished seventh in Class 1A region three with a 0-6 region record and failed to qualify for the playoffs.

       The offense struggled putting points on the score board as Ellwood Christian averaged scoring just 7.8 points a game. The Eagles also struggled on the defensive side of the football as they found little success in stopping opposing offenses and allowed an average of 52.6 points a game.
