Mt Carmel has won 15 state championships. Of these, two were at the highest level at that time; twelve were one level down; and one was two levels down. We've lost five state championship games: two at the highest level at that time, and three at one level down. We lost in the semis in 1987 to East St Louis in the highest level. In the seven years from 2006 to 2012, we competed in 8A playoffs.

I think the biggest thing for youth programs is just getting kids out and playing before hs is huge. In youth football right now everyone is trying to build super teams and it’s pointless. To use the PR travel hawks as an example a lot of those kids were from Norridge, Harwood heights and Chicago. Most of those kids are at ridgewood, st pats, nd or Taft now. Theirs several more examples I can give with programs doing the same thing. Where before the goal was to get kids that would feed into your hs

Yes, but not for the reason you think.

They should be reduced because there are about 10,000 fewer kids playing Illinois High School football now than there were when the number of classes was increased from six to eight.

Chatham is very good and could be even better next year. I don't think, however, they could beat East St Louis.

I'll be watching to see how the Flyers game with Edwardsville turns out for comparison purposes.

I enjoy your predictions and I agree with your post. I think its time to take the kid gloves off and call it like we see it. QND, barring a letdown, will have no trouble with SHS for a plethora of reasons. Yes, there is the angle of "if" SHS loses this game the playoffs hopes start of fall off so they will come out swinging but... 32-12 QND

I really feel for bad for any Sr losing their last season due to injury but the Rocket 3rd string QB is good enough to lead them past U-High.

As for the weather I hope it doesn't impact the games up there. Down here I just had my pool started two days ago so with the the dug and the rebar placed, along with the piping and all, Im hoping the next few days are light of rain lol.
