Bones goes way back to the “lost helmet” Brook game and a certain Mr. Martin. Those were battles and survival games between Bolingbrook and Lincoln-Way East. Those were the days….
Used to be teens of points. Hard to imagine today.

I met Bones during some of those games. Always a pleasure and respect for the Raiders.

Fager was the big difference maker on this years squad. The program losing him is going to hurt the most.
Agreed. If Olsen doesn't nominate him and he doesn't make All-State that's a crime. Unfortunately the old threads are gone, but I started hyping Fager after his freshman year and he definitely exceeded my expectations.

The good news is this year's sophomores have 3 or 4 ballers who have the same attitude/spirit as Fager and hopefully they step up and lead the team - Remember the names Chase Klipowicz, Damario Blake, Damarian Sample and Josiah Carillo - They all play with confidence and maximum effort like Fager did.

Hopefully that can spark the culture back to be hard nosed team instead of noteworthy individuals
