A note on structure: local football runs through four different systems. Monmouth-Roseville is in the Three Rivers Conference, not Lincoln Trail or Prairieland. Lincoln Trail and Prairieland merged their football operations in 2023 into a single league with Large and Small divisions. And West Central plays eight-man football in the I8FA, entirely separate from IHSA eleven-man. Each guide above explains its own corner of it.
