NAPERVILLE — Jake Beesley was a high school junior when it happened. Michael Hasenstab was a sophomore.
That was back in 2015, when Champaign Central football plunged into the Class 5A semifinals during then-coach Nate Albaugh’s third season running the Maroons.
Both Beesley and Hasenstab fondly remember that portion of their prep careers — and it’s serving them well now more than ever.
