Good to see the young Mustangs playing MC-LA to the final second with very tight games, in addition to a very good win against BR.
Appreciate the highlights! I hope these skilled WRs are good enough to contribute to varsity next year.
Shout out to the recent grad that does the Frosh highlights who did that video from this morning’s game in a wheel chair recovering from surgery. Incredible
Should frosh be playing OT games? I thought the idea was to learn skills and for the coaches to evaluate future talent. Possibility of injuries likely to grow in 5th quarter.
OT for Frosh games is one play from 3 yard line now so they were thinking along those lines with the rule change I would guess
Yes. Right in the thread title that you clicked on.
Yep I did. Had to see what would want anyone to think this was that important.
I would think that the most important thing at the freshman level was to ensure that your school is playing and developing as many kids as possible.
You have obviously never spent time around CCL Frosh football.
Spent plenty of time around it. Coached youth football at a Catholic grammar school for 14 years. Had a kid play football in the ESCC.
Could care less who won. All I cared about was that the kids played and got better.
I can't tell you how many times I heard dads bragging about winning conference as a freshman. Then watch their teams go 3-6 or 2-7 as varsity teams.
I’d agree mc14-0 but it’s more than that for him. It’s not the first time he’s popped in a CCL Frosh thread with his passive way of calling us idiots
And there it is. He finally gets to land his huge point. Problem is that, around here, we all know that about Frosh scores.
He thinks it’s a revelation to our side of town and our 9 mile radius of 4 (7?) very competitive schools. Yawn.
I dont get this. This is a site dedicated to high school football. It only makes sense that people would discuss lower levels. If you dont have an interest in a thread, just move on.
Love CCL Freshman football. It’s a glimpse of the possible future of the program and some outstanding games to boot. These freshman are still in contact with the 7th/8th graders/Junior High players from their school teams or youth programs. Their freshman experience goes a very long way with getting these kids to come visit and hopefully test at the school. So yes, a Freshman CCL Championship goes a very long way....kids see those Championship shirts and hoody’s around the neighborhood, makes them want to be a part of it.
And that was a miscalculation on my part. But you know from the SR Gaughan/Wilson/James year to the KB year that also saw Lausch at BR and AV at PC that the era of the piling up of dominant classes was over due to the explosion of social media and wanting early HUDL tape.
But for 3 years I was definitely wrong. It seems to have evened up a bit this year. In hindsight, I should’ve believed in the hoodie theory over my social-spread-out-playing-time theory 😂
They love the hoodies! Even in the summertime now it seems....
Yeah, hopefully my laugh face doesn’t confuse anyone. I was laughing at myself for being wrong not laughing at the hoodie theory. Everything you said in your previous post was absolutely correct.
Keep posting the scores, Soup!
Not sure why Quags looks down on us for this and express his superiority, but to each his own.
I'm hyped for Saturday's Marist at MC Frosh game LOL. Keep this thread alive!
I'm so disappointed with the folks on this thread. Not one Freshman B score! What is this world coming to. 😞
Sorry. Still breaking down the tape. I’d post the area’s Southside Catholic Conference and River Valley Youth Football League scores of the 7th and 8th graders but this is a High School Football site and darn it, there’s just some lines I won’t cross.
oh look at this high-achiever. Big B win Dons! That changes everything… Time to rework my 2025 algorithm
I’m thinking of starting a grammar school thread next week😜
Brings back memories for me regarding the "B" teams.
Began my teaching career at Waubonsie Valley as a student teacher. BJ Luke was kind to let me help out with the football program. This was the year after their great run with, I believe, seven D1 prospects and a semi-final loss to your Huskie in the mud.
In the end, I was the defensive coordinator of the Freshmen B team; we went 7-2 in the Upstate Eight. I also put together an extra-point and FG unit--unheard of at the Freshmen B level back then. Had a lefty for a kicker and went 0 - 3 in extra-point attempts. Results: wide right, block and a snap over the holder's head.
So cool Witty... that would be 1993?? Waubonsie Valley's best team ever (1992) had all those studs you mentioned, led by QB Brock Kreitz. Waubonsie split four years later and Neuqua was born, fielding their first varsity team in 1998.

I thought it was '94? Maybe I am off a year, but it was a great experience. BJ's son was a TE (Penn State bound?), and I believe he was a senior. They lost to Evanston on a two-point conversion in Round 1, I think.
RJ Luke was the head coach at Springfield for a few years.
. . . and I think BJ left WV and went to Danville to coach at his alma mater.
WV best team (12-1) was class of 1993. Class of 1995 team (9-3) lost in overtime (round 3) to Evanston. That was the 1994 season, just like you said. Sorry CCL peeps... back to freshman scores. How about a Chicago Leo frosh B score??
Ok. I student taught fall of '94, which was the year after the great season with the seven D1 prospects. I'm guessing I went back to visit and went to that '95 game. Round 3, not Round 1. Thank you for clarification.
