Biggest Question facing Harlem this fall?

Can the Huskies take the next step this fall? Next step? Harlem had a terrific season in the spring, posting a 6-0 record and end up with a state ranked team in 7A. Harlem and head coach Bob Moynihan, named as the Chicago Bears IHSA Coach of the Year will welcome back a deep and talented team for this fall. The next step is for Harlem to win the NIC-10 outright and to be able to make a deep state playoff run, something that has been very limited to teams not named Boylan out of the NIC-10 over the years.

Impact Player for Harlem:

Senior RB/LB Adrian Palos. Palos was a leader and a tone setter for the Huskies defense this past spring. Palos is also a terrific finisher who hits like a ton of bricks and who;'s recruiting stock will continue to draw recruiting attention thbis summer and fall.

Game to Watch this Fall? Week 6 vs Boylan

Harlem won the NIC-10 in the spring, but didn't get a chance to take on Boylan who sat out a Week 6 showdown due to COVID concerns. Harlem instead played Prairie Ridge and the Huskies are looking to get another shot at the Titans, who remain the team to beat in the NIC-10 year in and year out.
