What did we learn week 1!?!?
- Thread starter LakeCtyNewt
- Start date
I really don’t think it’s ever happened. As teams look for tougher none conference games I can see it happening more and more.
3 of the 4 will be just fine. Not sure about GBW?
Agreed. LWE has an outstanding program and a proud tradition firmly in place. They've had some great talent and teams come thru there. You can bet the search committee will be looking for a HC that can take the Griffins to the next level. It will be interesting to see who they bring in. That day is coming sooner than people think.
0-4 is a real possibility with LA,DGN and LT coming up. Hopefully the two non-conference games will have the ready for the WSS
Unlikely. The coaching staff is too good. But if it is over at least they had a run. Can’t say some much for the boys from Western Springs.
Runs come and go GW has had a good run but they are facing problems currently and rumor has it their staff will have some significant loses very soon.
It is worth watching. With fans against Loyola DGN LT and York still to come, getting to 5 wins will be very tough. May have to beat one of those teams.
I’m not sure what next level means in this reference? Coach Zvonar is the only head coach LW East has ever had since inception. I’m certain his retirement date is not private.Too many folks to mention have turned this public program into a powerhouse program and if winning titles is the only measure of success there are a lot of failing football teams in the state. 6 appearances in the final game I believe would be enough for any program in 23 years and having never missed the playoffs with an insane .841 winning percentage? First year was with a Frosh,Soph and Junior fed team only…no senior class was in the building. The softball team upstaged them winning state without a senior class in the building…
I understand the ESL comparisons and talk as well and appreciate their program, but the Griffins have never played them, although district sister school LW Central has had a home/home competition not that long ago with both teams splitting the outcomes. Enjoy the season all!

I am old & remember when Lincoln Way East was a Frosh/Soph High School for Lincoln Way(sorry I refuse to call it or original Plainfield Lincoln Way Central or Plainfield Central) & schools who would play Lincoln Way on Saturdays before they had lights would wind up at East High School lol
Nobody's crowing ESL anything and their chances of going undefeated in the regular season are very slim. Their goal is and always has been to go undefeated in the IHSA playoffs.

And as much as I love LWE I’m not crowning them anything until when & if they finally beat Loyola
That Beast and LWE should just play Saturday for the de facto "Illinois Overall State Title"
Was wondering about that because I was very stunned to see that score, especially considering the game was at DLS. Now I know why.
Hopefully, Harold - who did some real good things in his previous CCL tenure (think he was at Hales Franciscan) - can right things. But also sounds like it'll be a long-term process.
For second and third places, you mean, yeah?

Love it! Got me laughing on that one!
I’m watching you Crazylegs….. I’m back!
They are one of the largest public schools in the state yet they never have been to even a semifinal in the playoff era. GW, DGN, HC and York have all had runs. Some in multiple eras yet the Lions have underachieved for decades. Maybe this will be the year. The loudest support of LT says it is ever year and that GW is done.
Anyone have anything on Sandburg - 63, H-F - 34 from last night, Friday the 13th?
I don’t know. It’s a weird year in Chicagoland HS football. 🏈
