Chicago Catholic League, Week XII
Remember: win or lose, shake hands after the game. Also, pick all the games and the scores/spread.
8A:
(8) Flossmoor (Homewood-F.) (10-1) at (1) Wilmette (Loyola Academy) (11-0)
predictor, neutral field, LA 34 HF 26
Game of the Century. The lower the score, the more I like LA's chances. Any of that Marist-Barrington stuff and I'm heading straight to the defibrillator. Ramblers 13 Vikings 9.
(5) Chicago (Brother Rice) (10-1) at (13) Palatine (H.S.) (9-2)
predictor, neutral field, BR 31 Palatine 24
The Pirates always have a couple of game-breakers on the roster. Should be a very tight game. Crusaders 21 Pirates 20
6A:
(1) Lombard (Montini) (11-0) at (5) DeKalb (9-2)
predictor, neutral field, MCHS 35 DeKalb 20
Broncs have allowed 36 points in last 9 games. The Barbs have allowed 226. Thus, Broncs 25 Barbs 4.
5A:
(8) Tinley Park (H.S.) (9-2) at (5) Burbank (St. Laurence) (9-2)
predictor, neutral field SL 42 TP 28
Both teams beat SI by 21. If SL contains Schultz, they're in good shape. Vikes 28 Titans 21
3A:
(8) Byron (9-2) at (5) Kankakee (McNamara) (10-1)
predictor, neutral field BMac 38 Byron 28
The Tigers? Really? You've got two huge nuclear reactors in your town and you go with an overgrown kitten. Not even a real tiger can stop Jonathan Ward. A reactor, maybe, but not a tiger. Irish 35 Tigger 21.
Prep Bowl:
SI (6-5) at SR (4-6)
predictor, neutral field SR 26 SI 24
Saint Ingatius, as they like to call themselves, is looking pretty good. Winner gets a shot at the Caravan. Mustangs 21 Wolves 20.
