Interesting games on the schedule:
- Thread starter Cross Bones
- Start date
Week #1 - JCA @ St. Rita
St. Rita looking to have a breakout season starting out at home verses a very young JCA squad who are looking to rebuild.
With St. Rita, ICC, St. Laurence, Fenwick, Brother Rice (in that order) a young JCA team will definitely get their baptism by fire.

Oh really? At Batavia? Might have to go there after Naz/Cardinal Ritter game at 4.
Althoff v IC to open the season in central IL again.
I hope all of those sophomores who got whooped on last year had good offseasons. Crusaders return a ton on D ... might not score much, but you won't score much on them either. I hope they found another kicker to replace the 4-year starter.

For a second I was going to say something snarky, then I remembered the Bears were pretty good last year. Had to turn the reflex off.
Could be a three game weekend for me JC @ Reeters and the two you mention, which will also take me all across Chicagoland. May have to get one of those professional HS football game chairs, the pad just doesn't do it anymore and these old bones can't take that much bleacher action anymore.
4 games of interest and importance to Pc.
Willowbrook
Br Rice
St Rita
Montini
These games make the difference between 6-3 and 4-5 IMO

From my perspective, this JCA game is the interesting one. I think if Rita wins, she will have a very, very good season. Last year, the consensus was SR being the slight favorite--and look what happened. In my mind, this is a pick 'em. Aside from the usual PC-Bronco-LA, I think the ND-Benet games will be interesting as well.
Naperville Central @ Hinsdale Central wk 1promises to be another barn burner, picking up from where they left off last year. Very interesting match up between the NC QB Sam Jackson and their skill guys at slot/WR versus the HC DBs/LBs.
Jackson's arm is just a sling shot, and he might be the fastest kid on the field. Plus he's got some serious slots/WRs to work with---Reg Fleurima is sick with it. Depending on how their o-line shapes up, they could be just as explosive if not more so than last year (Dupage guys please tell me if I'm overstating---I know the loss of Thorton, Hallstrom, Hughes, McDonald, and the other huge WR is big, but they've just seemed to reload on a par. The Turner kid seems to be a real threat in the slot as well).
HC returns a talented DB group, one being a 3rd year, two big d-lineman plus a couple 3rd year linebackers. I think this has gotta be one of the more interesting week 1 match ups.

Funny the toughest game here may be the smallest school ICCP after Brother Rice.
ND has a solid QB...Laurence has 19 starters back, including most of the skill positions
I know about the ND QB but what else do they have? St Laurence was stacked with sophs and juniors last year but not sure what the coaching change will do to their team. Again, not sure what to expect from these 2 teams.
How about this lineup...
9am = College Game Day
1:30pm = Maine South @ Glenbard West
4:00pm = Cardinal Ritter @ Nazareth Academy
7:30pm = East St. Louis @ Batavia

Can I purchase this as a one price package and include a great watering hole on the way?
Small Schools...LOL.. Cardinal Ritter? You mean the St. Louis team that has about 5-7 Power 5 players on it??? I guess Naz goes after the "Small Schools" smh
Take it easy big guy. I played at LA and it’s not much of a rivalry. “Maggot” who talks like that? I think you may have some emotional problems, little buddy.

Maybe if the big schools weren’t scared. Lots of thanks but no thanks or simply unreturned emails.
You seem to attract these unstable personalities Bowie. Maybe it's just you. LOL.
What’s left in the cupboard for the MO 3A runners up?
