Report Card: Illinois Fighting Illini 24, Huskers 13

First up: an admission. I didn’t watch this game live, as I was watching my son’s team in the state quarterfinals. Millard North beat Omaha North 21-0, setting up a rematch next week against Millard South in a game that will feature three Nebraska recruits. And for my money, Millard North’s Tory Pittman III is the best player in the state. I’m not a recruitnik, so I don’t know how this translates to the next level. I just know he makes plays no one else in this state can, at least that I’ve seen thus far.

High Five (+5): Opening Week

After Illinois won their Big Ten season opener at Ohio State last December, we rolled out the High Five video clip feature. The Illini would go on to win 12 of their next 13 games - a stretch which would establish themselves as one of the best teams in college basketball and laid the foundation for a what ultimately became a Final Four caliber season. I’m not saying that the High Five series had anything to do with that, but it seem conveniently coincidental in retrospect. Regardless, the High Five posts were a ton of fun to do so, of course, we’re going to run it back this season.

The Senators exceeded expectations with 409 points, and outscored second place Normal U-High (318) by 91. Defending champs Chatham Glenwood was third with 196 points. "The girls set that goal at the beginning of the season — they knew that they could and wanted to do it," said Springfield coach Erin Myers of conquering the CS8. "I told them that everything had to be swam just right. We were originally seeded to only win by 18 points. They were excited. It was a lot of fun." CS8 swim results: Springfield High freshman phenom sets two CS8 swim records Now, the Senators and a super freshman want more.
