How do you not know till now that you won’t have a team?

Maybe the Sangamo and the Big Northern can just play each other on the Riverton/Rockford Christian weeks?

Right? You know, are you hoping 20 additional kids magically show up on day 1 of Fball practice?
I guess if you feel you are close and really want a team you hope you can recruit the halls once school starts.

Seems like this would be a good fit. Hopefully they can make it happen. Worked for Athens Byron Williamsville and Oregon so far

Gotta think the conference boots them out of football moving forward

I have a feeling this won't be the last school to drop before week 1...

305 enrollment so you figure 150 boys. You can’t get 25/30 out of 150 out for football??? Then again 1986 Tinley had over 1,000 students & only got 25 on varsity out of at least 250

These are misguided numbers. If there's 150 boys That's across 4 classes so that's roughly 80 boys that are juniors and seniors. Even if you use all 4 classes just to assemble a varsity team to get trounced every week that's saying that approximately 20% of all boys will play football.

In that same context an 8A school with enrollment of 3,000, or 1,500 boys, would mean there are 300 boys going out for football.

Per Hudl, LWE had 90+ kids on varsity..lol
I just got curious and looked, wasn't trying to make a point other than that is hilarious.

Not sure how accurate Hudl is, as it has Morris' roster at 82 on varsity and they're a third the size of LWE.
