 2017 Preview 


       Danville completed the 2016 season with a 5-5 record. Last year Danville finished sixth in Class 4A region eight with a 1-5 region record and failed to qualify for the playoffs.

       The Hawks have not qualified for the playoffs since the 2009 season and would love to end that streak this year. The Hawks last playoff victory came during the 1994 season. They would love to break through this year with a post season win.

       Since 2010, Danville has gone a combined 22-48. Their 31.0% winning percentage ranks 49th in Class 4A over the past seven seasons.

       Over the past 25 seasons, Danville has managed to compile a record of 94-174. Their 35.0% winning percentage ranks 49th in Class 4A and 321st in the AHSAA.

       The Hawks are led by head coach Josh LouAllen who is entering his fourth season at the helm. He has compiled a record of 12-18 over the past three seasons at Danville. The Hawks have yet to reach the playoffs under his direction. They have not won a region crown with Coach LouAllen.

       Coach LouAllen's overall record as a head football coach in three season stands at 12-18 (40.0%).

       The Danville Hawks will play in Class 4A region eight during the 2017 season.

       It will be an uphill battle for the Hawks if they hope to grab one of the four playoff slots in region eight this season.

       The Hawks open the 2017 season on the road against non-region opponent Clements on Friday, August 25 at M.T. Newman Stadium. Last year the Clements Colts finished with an overall record of 4-6 and in sixth place in Class 3A region eight. The Colts ended last season on a positive note with a win over St. John Paul II by a score of 28-18 after failing to gain a playoff spot.

       Danville and Clements have met a total of 16 times on the football field. The Hawks have a 6-10-0 record against the Colts. They last met in 2016 with Danville winning by a score of 26-6.
