Two local seniors recently announced their intentions to continue their football careers in college.
Neuqua Valley offensive lineman Scott Doehring is headed to Wisconsin-Platteville, the school announced Wednesday. Doehring was a Sun All-City choice and an all-Upstate Eight Conference pick. Platteville, a Division III school in southwestern Wisconsin, finished 4-6 last year and is a member of the Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference.
Meanwhile, Naperville Central running back Nick Kukuc is staying close to home by committing to North Central College. Kukoc, a Sun All-City honorable mention selection and first-team all-DuPage Valley Conference choice, ran for 591 yards and eight touchdowns for the Redhawks.
Kukuc staying local? I thought he was a highly underated player. Good for North Central!
Nick had a total of 10 touchdowns, 9 rushing and 1 receiving.
Nick is a great football player and and awesome person. Northcentral is lucky as hell to have him. Congrats on your graduation Nicky boy!

Nick your a great guy and I wish you all the best. Good luck & go Cardinals!
I saw him play against Waubonsie this past season. He broke tackles left and right and from my understanding did the same in many other contests. North Central's got a good program and he should do fine.
Congrats Nick, keep putting in the reps and working hard and it'll pay dividends at North Central! The Cardinals will no doubt be more dynamic with you on the team!
