The Kewaunee Storm football season hits the road Friday night to open its 2026 campaign against Fox Valley Lutheran.

The Storm said good bye to a lot of talented seniors that made playoff runs in football, basketball, and baseball in recent memory, including an appearance in Level 2 on the gridiron. Gone are Brett Paulsen, Waylon Delain, Mitchell Boeder, Trevor Gauthier, Connor Kilgore, Bryce Tulachka, and Alec Carlson, who all made All-Packerland squads last year. The cupboard is definitely not empty, however, with All-Conference performers Dane Harrell, Diesel Bosdeck, Gregorio Medina, Ben VanGoethem, Blake Bortolini, and Blake Temme all likely returners.

The Foxes started last season 4-0, but lost four of their final six games including a slim 38-36 loss to Luxemburg-Casco in their playoff opener.

Kickoff is set for 7 p.m.
