🏆 Sports in Kansas Large Classes Assistant Coach of the Year (6A–5A–4A) Tony Chesney, Salina Central Chesney led what many considered the top offensive line in Kansas this fall, powered by 4-star Kaden Snyder (SIK Top 11) and elite junior Warrick VanBlaricon, helping pave the way for 2,800-yard rusher and Top 11 pick Cooper Reves along with standout QB Griffin Hall. His unit helped Salina Central win its first state title in 20 years, and head coach Mark Sandbo said Chesney’s impact goes far beyond talent: “We have some dudes, but they’ve gotten so much better because of him, and several of them are going to be more prepared to play at the highest level because of him. Not to mention the work he does for our entire program.” — Mark Sandbo, 2025 SIK All-Classes Coach of the Year on Chesney. A dominant season. A dominant line. A coach who made it happen. #sportsinkansas
