Lots of stupid flags by MC.

SR dominating MC in the 1st half. Score doesn't reflect it.

Field goals are not gonna beat Carmel. Rita has to settle for two in the first half despite being deep inside MC territory.

It looks like Rita is playing on a beautiful 70' day. MC looks like they've never been North of the Mason Dixon Line in November. I never thought this team would look soft, but they do.

A fumble and three drive-killing penalties. As others have cautioned against all season long, MC is beating itself.

Field goals are not gonna beat Carmel.

They may just let MC beat themselves though. Lets see if they wake up in the second half.

Downing to Furlong. Not much resistance from the Rita defense

Does Mt Carmel always play this chippy? This is going to cost them at some point

Survive and advance,,,

Lynch was really upset during the post-game interview. He knows that these really stupid penalties are going to be the thing that beasts us. You can tell that he stressed it to these kids all week, but it's still happening. Great game by St Rita. They just didn't have a good enough passing game once they fell behind. Hell of a career for Coach Kuska.

Congratulations to MC and St Rita. Sounds like it was a good game. MC moving on to face Batavia. Good luck to both teams in the final.

Fortunately, MC has the talent to overcome its mistakes. Penalties almost killed them against Loyola and again today against St. Rita. I expect that they will do the same next week against Batavia. We'll all be pulling our hair out when they draw unnecessary flags, but in the end they'll find a way to win.
