I think everyone should have a closet of assorted color khakis.I'm good with the blazers but no one should ever wear khakis. Ever. Like never ever.
Great comment Bones !I saw that score and was pleasantly surprised. Benet is yearly one of my favorite teams to watch, I know some people that will beat me up for saying it, but I have an appreciation for their brand; fundamentally sound, hit open shots, and won't beat themselves. I also like that they show up in blazers and khakis, it stands out.
I see a lot of people are high on Springfield SE. I don't like how they carved us up for 88, but if you can beat a team that highly regarded while your top player is out it has to be a good sign.First AP Rankings of the Year
Glad to see ESL and Collinsville get a little love - the SWC is not a cake walk, that's for sure.
Lots of points in that game!!!I see a lot of people are high on Springfield SE. I don't like how they carved us up for 88, but if you can beat a team that highly regarded while your top player is out it has to be a good sign.
Bogan beat Simeon and Currie crushed Morgan Park.
Vashon rushed MP too. This just may be a reputation-seeded team.That overtime lost to Currie by ESL is not looking so bad right now.

Surely Simeon is over-hyped - they are sub-500.
Joe Henricksen@joehoopsreportDo any hoops experts know of a Kevin Boopie Miller at Morgan Park - or formerly at MP - I understand he transferred to St Laurence - is that true?
interesting - I wonder about eligibility rules in this case - public to private - maybe next semester?Joe Henricksen@joehoopsreport
Sophomore guard Boopie Miller, who recently left Morgan Park, is now officially enrolled at St. Laurence.
"While it won’t be known how soon he will be eligible to play, sophomore guard Boopie Miller has officially enrolled at St. Laurence after leaving Morgan Park last week."interesting - I wonder about eligibility rules in this case - public to private - maybe next semester?

I think there is a 30 day period he has to wait as long as he didn't participate in an official Morgan Park practice. The paperwork from both schools must be filed as well. With a CPS school that may take longer than normal. Any idea why he left Morgan Park?interesting - I wonder about eligibility rules in this case - public to private - maybe next semester?
I took a look on Twitter - maybe just squeezed out of playing time as MP received in some recruits this year and maybe it is just a #'s thing - I might be wrong but he may have suited up with MP in Nov - worst case scenario is that he sits all year - I think he is only a SOPH - so 2 years to goI think there is a 30 day period he has to wait as long as he didn't participate in an official Morgan Park practice.

Little tilt tonight against Romeoville
The Burford kid is good, really good, at driving and finishing. Kind of undersized so he'll have to develop a jumper or learn to pass.Nice win for the Brook last night.
at least the best team since 2003 when they lost a tight SuperSectional game against Thornwood - very exciting team to watch this year - lack of size may bite 'em tho - and their sectional competition is fierce with Bogan and MPThis could be the best St. Laurence team since the Stack and Boyle era.
Joliet West plays Curie in the first round of the Pontiac tournament. Yikes!Curie is 10-0 after beating 1-5 Simeon.

I am seeing Joliet West host Oswego East tonight. I have not been to a game at Joliet West since 1992, beat JCA to win the regional that night.
Joliet Catholic lost to Hillcrest in the regional final in 2017.That may be the last time JCA was in a regional championship in hoops
Joliet Catholic lost to Hillcrest in the regional final in 2017. But I thought JCA won a regional a few years ago under Joe Gura????
they were pretty good in the Illini 8, late 70s early 80s. Mike Gillespie, Gordie's son, was the coach. He ended up taking Florida A&M to the NCAA tournament. I think 1980 or 1981 they made the Sweet 16, lost a close game to Quincy. I'm still mad about the officiating in the 1988 regional....You might be right. I dont follow it very close. Pretty hard to watch. Not a real glorious hoops tradition for the Hilltoppers

hey were you there for the infamous Lockport goaltending at Romeoville HS in 1988? I heard both sets of fans stormed the court afterwards, chaos!

I saw that picture in the JCHS yearbook and it does look like the ball is going to hit the rim. Kinda funny that the trail official 84 feet away made the call.Lockport coach said it was 3 feet short. Not true. The ball was definitely going to hit the rim and maybe even go in. . There is a great picture in the JCHS yearbook taken from behind the basket showing Antoine Harris grabbing the ball as it comes down.
