Congrats to Lincoln Way East on winning the State Title!!! Geeze I remember that was only a 2 year(or was it 1?) school where people from Reavis would end up after getting lost going to Rich Central or Lincoln Way.And the cherry on top is that kids who played football at Lincoln Way North got their state title!!!
Congrats to Lincoln Way East/North!!!
- Thread starter superac777
- Start date
They took off their old 8 18 site which what I was looking for to check the names of the Frosh and Sophs who played at North that play at East now.

You must remember that they lost as many players as they gained. The kids from Mokena were sent to Central.
But the overall student enrollment went from about 1,900 to 2,916. That's a 50% increase. So, they got a lot more than they lost
True, but they lost football players (starters). The post makes it seem like they only gained students, that no players were lost.
They gained about 1,750 from LWN and lost about 900 from Mokena that now go to LWC.
11 starters were from LWE, 11 were from the former LWN area.

Enrollment for LWE on IHSA Web site
2013 2198
2014 2154
2015 2153
2016 2891
Net Increase of 738 students or 25%
Increase = New Number - Original Number (2891-2153)=738
% increase = Increase ÷ Original Number × 100. (738 / 2891)*100 = 25%

I knew someone would challenge it which is why I put the formula down.
Look it up math major...Here is another way to do it - same result.

You have the right equation, just inserted the new number(2891) when you wanted original number(2153)
should be 738/2153
25 or 34. Pretty significant increase. Pretty unsettling for the older kids. Thanks Lawrence Wylie.
Congrats to the 2017 LWE Griffins. They ran the table just like the 2005 team. The East fans don’t care if the team was made up of East & North kids.
Go East Go Blue! State 8A Champions again. Great job guys.
