Schaumberg
Lemont
Prospect


Impact Player for Lemont:

Senior QB Payton Saloman (6-foot-0, 180 pounds) is a multi-sport athlete who will be asked to lead the Lemont offense this fall. Saloman has a very solid and accurate arm, is more than capable of making teams play and defend his running ability and is a leader on and off the field. Saloman will also have a ton of weapons at his disposal this fall along with an experienced offensive line blocking for him this season.

EDGY's Quick Take on the Lemont Football Team

The Lemont Football Team (11-1) posted a perfect 9-0 regular season and won the South Suburban Blue conference title. Lemont then made a deep run in the 2021 Class 6A state playoff field, beat Kennedy and Springfield before losing to East St. Louis in the quarterfinal round. With a ton of experience back this season (10 offense 5 defense) I look for Lemont to make another potential deeper run in Class 6A this fall.

Championship week is here. I have been fortunate enough to watch my favorite team play in or be a part of a number of championship games over the years. Below are a few of my most memorable. The first two were 5A championships back when there were only 6 classes.

1987- JC 14 Richwoods 13. My personal favorite and a great memory as a player. JC trailed 13-0 at half. Defense stepped up from there and did not allow another first down. Hilltoppers rallied in the second half. Scored winning TD with just over 2 minutes left on a long pass from Jonathon Voss to Tyrone Isaac.

1987 JC/Richwoods

1992- WWS 40 JC 34 The Hilltoppers were coming off a huge semifinal win vs Mt Carmel. Classic game with numerous lead changes. WWS pulled out the win in double overtime. Although disappointed in the outcome, it was an unbelievable game.

1992 JC/WWS


2018- JC 35 Montini 27. Most on this board recall this one. A true classic battle of two great programs. JC's top back gets hurt early, but Iannantone has a monster game, rushes for over 300 yards. Hillmen take late lead, Montini storms back and has 5 or 6 plays inside the 10 yard line but cant punch it in. Game ends on a 4th down interception on the 5 yard line as time expires.

2018 JC/Montini

What are your most memorable games?

Good luck to all the teams playing this week.

Sitting at 1-5 and not much to play for the Dons have come back and played well the last two weeks. This is a team with some young talent. I’m looking forward to next Friday against St. Rita. If they come to play next week against the Mustangs I think they might make some noise next year. Go Dons!!

Naz vs DLS is being played Thursday night due to Giod Friday. What other games are Thursday?

Again I'm looking at more of places that maybe have the potential to be turned into something much better if they had the ability to throw some $$$ around.

Which ones and what additions/improvements would you make...

Me?

Oswego...great football programs and great support both Oswego's need turf now.

Has Stagg or Thornton hired a coach yet?

Who ya got? What would make your team's stadium better?

Maine South has a great atmosphere. Stevie has a nice set up. Have not been to new MC stadium, but heard that was pretty cool. I love GBW.

Anyone have any information on the Romeoville will be opening or will they hire from within?

Also anyone have any updates on the stagg opening?

I

16-0 East, end of first quarter

Naz at the podium from Saturday
