monticello faithful might have expected a good season out of this senior class but i can't imagine many outsiders had the sages in the semis

Really happy for your Knights. It's always good to see first time semifinalists.

Last year was at Naz as well. SF has been to 4 semifinals over the last 10 years…3 of them have been played @ Naz…..

They need to move one of you to the south or seed 5a a true 1 to 32.

Once you get down to JCA, SF and Naz, all the powerhouse schools in the bracket are there.

I expected Coal City to be solid, but in the preseason I didn't expect them to make the semis

Yeah outside of the die hards here, ten years from now people walking through LWC will a Semifinal plaque and just think they had a good year.

99.99% will never know who they had to beat 4 weeks from now

I’ll second DePaul. I know they’ve been on a major upswing but I’m not sure I envisioned Semi’s . Go Rams!!

Was last years game at SF?

This is going to be a tough choice for me (speaking as a Montoni Alum)

SF at Naz or

Wilmington at Montini

I'm dying to see both

Last year was at Naz as well. SF has been to 4 semifinals over the last 10 years…3 of them have been played @ Naz…..

Lincoln-Way Central is the surprise of 7A and 8A as well to date. They are making noise to be another LW210 team to discuss . Lincoln-Way West had Batavia on the ropes and just missed the KO. Go Knights!

If LWW kept with the run game in the second half I'm 99 percent sure they would have won. They took advantage of Batavia coming out flat in the first half and then inexplicably changed their offensive gameplan

Yea I agree both things can be true. LWC is talented and earned the right to be in the semis. At the same time, it can be recognized that is one of the easier paths for any team in recent years and people will remember that too.

STOP
Since 1974, no one cares how you got there. You have to play who the bracket tells you.
LWC is in the Final 7A Four.
Print it.

He's right though.
