Preview # 39

Milford-Cissna Park Bearcats
Milford, IL

Enrollment:
245

Conference:
I8FA Central East

Head Coach:
Clint Schwartz

2025 Results:
6-4 Overall, Lost I8FA 1st Rd to Amboy 68-8

Players to Watch:
Mario Martinez RB/LB Sr
Lucas Summers TE/LB Jr
Skylar Estay RB/WR/DB Sr

Underclassmen to Watch:
Maddox Muehling WR So
Jackson Lavicka LB So

2026 Outlook:
The Bearcats made the I8FA playoffs in 2025 but ran into the eventual champions (Amboy) in round 1. 2026 looks promising for MCP as they bring back six starters on both sides of the ball. Coach Schwartz says the offense will be led by Skylar Estay, a 4 year starter, and Mario Martinez, who has been starting since the middle of his sophmore year. Defensively the Bearcats will be led by Lucas Summers, who set the MCP single season record for total tackles with 138 in 2025. Milford-Cissna Park wants to be able to establish a good running game and control the line of scrimmage, which they believe is the key to their success in 2026. The I8FA Central East should see MCP fighting for the top spot.
