Actually I was really impressed with Barrington. Like that QB alot.
Just like in the 8A semi-final last year, they have trouble with a very quick, scrambling QB.
They were down 20-14 and had first and goal on Barrington's 2 yard line to start the 4th, were down to the 1 on 2nd down and then ran an end around that lost 5 yards and an incomplete pass and had to settle for a field goal, leaving them down 20-17 instead of up 21-20.
Barrington ate away 7 minutes of clock with Niro converting a number of third downs before Parsons made an incredible catch for the final TD. They had no answer on that drive and even though they mounted a late comeback, they didn't have enough time for the two scores needed.
Sucks because it seems they are much better than a 3-3 team...but hopefully they'll figure out how to win these close ones before Hoffman Estates week 9 and the playoffs.

It's not a knock on palatine. I live there...well, here. It's just an observation. I was sitting with some friends and they all agreed.
Lots of lighting companies up north. Change to LED bulbs? 
They don't dim over time like those Flurescent ones!!

They'll have to have the players sell some extra Palatine Football Discount Cards to foot the bills for new lights

I haven't been to the stadium yet so I was just half kidding. I don't know if they are LED or Halogen or Fluorescent.
I also like his play. I paid attention to him last year and he's a special player. I had a suspicion he would play like he did tonight. I thought that if he was not hurt in the playoffs last year he was taking them to the championship game. Tough kid.
Barrington is nothing. Superman could beat them single handedly without his cape. - Hinterland
Just read an article, said their kicker was the O-lineman that got carted off the field on the second play from scrimmage.
I was thinking maybe he/she doubles as a soccer player and they had a soccer game. I've seen that happen before.
