October 13, 201411 yr A senior from my alma mater broke his spine Friday night. He's had two surgeries already. Please keep him in your thoughts and (if you're so inclined) prayers.
October 13, 201411 yr Addison Trail appears to be having a nice season. Looks like they play number 2 Glenbard West this weekend too.
October 13, 201411 yr Brian are you going to quit covering HS sports when Stevenson wins state in football and basketball this year?
October 13, 201411 yr QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Oct 8, 2014 -> 08:38 AM) Are you from Maine South? Nah, Stevenson. I might be off a year. Edited October 13, 201411 yr by Rowand44

October 13, 201411 yr QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Oct 13, 2014 -> 06:20 PM) Nah, Stevenson. I might be off a year. Okay. We played Stevenson in 2002. Maine South in 2003.
October 13, 201411 yr QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Oct 13, 2014 -> 06:22 PM) Okay. We played Stevenson in 2002. Maine South in 2003. Stevenson Football is the Atlanta Braves of HS football, minus the one ring.
October 13, 201411 yr QUOTE (Brian @ Oct 13, 2014 -> 06:25 PM) Stevenson Football is the Atlanta Braves of HS football, minus the one ring. It will help Stevenson that they won't have to run the gauntlet in 8A though. 7A will be much tougher because many of the best teams end up in 7A lately.

I'm curious to see if New Trier can go deeper than usual. They've been playing well. Only loss was to Maine South in Park Ridge.

I'll go out on a limb and say the top 8A teams would take care of the Top 8A teams. Stevenson, Loyola, Bolingbrook, HF, Maine South, and of course WARREN.

October 14, 201411 yr QUOTE (farmteam @ Oct 13, 2014 -> 09:01 PM) It was only 14-7. Was that lots of a defense or just bad offense? Warren's offense was bad. Their QB was bad the first 4 weeks but now they seem to be clicking. Wish they played Stevenson in Week 9 instead of Week 3.
October 16, 201411 yr Author How come Brother Rice traveled to Michigan to lose a game and Indianapolis to lose a game? Aren't there enough teams to play in the Chicago area? It's their only two losses so far. What am I missing here with that kind of schedule? The reasoning?

St Fancis De Sales folded so they needed to get a game. It is kind of like NCAA where mediocre teams do not want to play good teams. Happened in the DVC and there is one conference where teams are playing one another twice. The bigger 8A and 7A teams are struggling to find enough out of conference games.

October 16, 201411 yr Author How is Beneventi faring with Fenwick? Is he a future stiff for Iowa or can he play?
October 16, 201411 yr QUOTE (greg775 @ Oct 16, 2014 -> 02:46 PM) How is Beneventi faring with Fenwick? Is he a future stiff for Iowa or can he play? He's been very average after looking great last year. Think he threw 5 INTs in a game. I think he's Tommy Rees.

October 17, 201411 yr QUOTE (greg775 @ Oct 16, 2014 -> 10:44 PM) Wow. Five interceptions in a high school game. Is Fenwick beating people? Looks like they're 5-2. I thin Beneventi will be good at Iowa. Just not right away. http://ihsa.org/SportsActivities/BoysFootb...=/data/fb/o.htm

I believe Brother Rice will get their 3rd loss tonight at Providence.
October 17, 201411 yr QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Oct 17, 2014 -> 08:22 AM) I believe Brother Rice will get their 3rd loss tonight at Providence. Yes but they should handle Rita next week. Oddly Rice Providence are usually good games. The Brother Rice coach really over-scheduled his team. They could easily ended up 8-1 and just as easily could have ended up 1-8.
October 17, 201411 yr QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 17, 2014 -> 09:14 AM) my Batavia Bulldogs have a huge game vs Geneva tonite for the conference title Now I'm pulling for Geneva.
October 17, 201411 yr QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 17, 2014 -> 09:14 AM) my Batavia Bulldogs have a huge game vs Geneva tonite for the conference title I went to Lake Park. We would be in the same conference, but we switched to the DVC last year.
