The West Suburban Conference has 2 Quarterfinal teams, both from the Silver Division. In 7A, Downers Grove North will travel to Lincoln-Way West; while in 8A, York will host Edwardsville.
DGN had a rough 1st half against Hersey this past weekend. However, they came out and fought in the second half, clawing their way back into the game, and taking the lead late in the 4th qtr.
I don't know a ton about LWW, but I'll lay out what I know:
- They are 9-2, with their two loses coming to Belleville East (still playing) and Homewood-Flossmoor (1st Round loss)
- They won the Southwest Suburban Red.
- They handed Lincoln Way Central (lost to Batavia in Round 2) their sole regular season loss.
- They beat Bradley-Bourbonnais, who also was a Round 2 playoff team.
- Massey has their regular season schedule ranked at 73rd in the state (DGNs is ranked at 37).
York won one of the most intense games I've seen against a tough Lyons team. A walk-off field goal is both heartbreaking and exhilarating at the same time.
They now face an Edwardsville team that completely dismantled Glenbard West this past Saturday. Despite with GBWs Twitter page indicated, they were never in this game, and E=ville ran away with it. This will definetly be a tough matchup for the Dukes.
