The Iowa high school football season will feature elite talent statewide, and the Iowa City area is home to a lot of that talent.

The Iowa City area is loaded with high school talent, and the Press-Citizen has compiled the top 10 football players before the season opener on Aug. 28.

Make your choice in our Iowa City-area preseason player of the year poll.
