The football program has seen tremendous growth since the year 2000.  Six of the program's seventeen winning seasons came during this time, including the best regular season record in program history (8-1, three times), best overall record in program history (10-2), and the five of the program's eight trips to the IHSA playoffs.  The 2004 campaign witnessed the program's first playoff win, first road playoff win, and first trip to the Quarterfinals.  The span from 2003-2008 saw Trojans football teams post six winning seasons and six trips to the playoffs in a row.

Numerous improvements to the facilities and program have been made.  A new practice facility was built on EHS grounds.  Also, the playing field was leveled, crowned, and Kentucky Bluegrass sod was installed.  A new crow's nest was built by the Elmwood Kiwanis Club that includes a press box, boxes for scouts and film crews from both teams, and storage.  A new scoreboard has been installed.  The design of the varsity uniform was updated, and the distinctive Trojan logo was adopted.  In addition, this web site was developed to provide information about the team (schedules, statistics, etc.) and highlight the accomplishments of Trojans Football players.
