Goodnight, JCA

[Secondo1]

Down 27-0 with 1:37 left in the half.

Offense continues as run, run, run up the middle. Defense stops nothing.

Nothing has changed from previous years.

Wait 'til next year!!

Wait

That half surprised me.

The program once known as the almighty JCA is nearing dead. I hate to say it. It saddens me really.

Sorry to hear about the misfortunes there.Keep at it.Joliet Catholic will never die.Not as bad as marian but people as stated leaving Illinois left & right & if not it takes all you make to stay in Illinois.

Final 34-0. They start a ton of juniors, will be solid next year. NND is tough and their lower levels are looking strong. They will be pretty good the next few years.

Is Ty Gavin the best player in the ESCC?? Does he have any offers? Worried what he will do next Saturday against the Shamrocks.

Nice player but no.

He's a nice player but don't think he'll pay at the d1 level at rb. Most likely an ISU type of kid who will play safety.

Would have never believed that this could happen at JCA. Starting to really doubt all of the hype about next year being the year as well...Until they get an identity on the defensive side of the football, I think this is going to continue

Yeah, I would say expectations should, at a minimum, be tempered for next year.

Looking more and more like Jaws has a complete rebuild on his hands.

Paraphrasing Mark Twain, "The news of JCA's near death are greatly exaggerated"

I think the ship can be turned around. The program has too much history and JCA's recent decline is likely a bump in the road. If JCA gets lucky and a few kids choose JCA rather than attend the competition, they well may be back sooner than we think.

If Chris James got as many carries as Ty Gavin did though,...

OK in all due Respect Gavin is an absolute horse and I hope he's getting looked at. Edgy,...?

You might be right but WWS is in a similiar boat.

Certainly hope you are right. For some reason Illinois High School Football is better in my opinion when the Hill is relevant.

There are some playersat the plainfield schools that definitely used to be kids that JCA would get. Seem to be slipping through the cracks now.

Two more rosters to fill than 15 years ago. I wonder if Joliet West re-emerging as a separate program from Central took some players too.

And the two best opportunities for Viator's to finally beat the Hilltoppers - this year and last - and they're not on the schedule.

ND has beaten JCA 3 times in 5 years after not beating them for 25 odd years.
