Wednesday marks 16 days until the Homewood High School football team kicks off the 2025 season.
Homewood High School linebacker Joey Luckianow will be one of the leaders for the Patriots, as they take the field Aug. 22 against crosstown foe John Carroll in the Battle of Lakeshore.
Luckianow is a tackling machine in the middle of the Homewood defense. He is hoping to lead the charge for a strong Patriots defense once again this fall.
