'This one takes the cake': Inside look at wildest Illinois high school football game

A date change, a mid-game venue change, and a handful of broken records all made for a story that sounded like it was "written by a fifth grader," according to Quincy (IL) head football coach Rick Little. The Oct. 30 IHSA first-round matchup between No. 8 Sarah E. Goode STEM Academy and No. 9 Quincy Senior had a little bit of everything, and then some. The Blue Devils escaped with an 88-84 win over the Knights in a game that lasted just over four hours. "Undeniably the craziest football game I've ever been a part of," Little told USA TODAY Sports. "I've been part of a lot of crazy ones, but this one takes the cake for sure." "I wouldn't believe them in a million years," Bryson Little told USA TODAY Sports of how he would have reacted if someone told him the details of the game. "It was a crazy game and a lot of stuff went down." The fourth-quarter venue change Initially, the teams were assigned a Saturday slot for the first-round matchup to be played on Chicago's South Side. However, with the Blue Devils off from school on Friday, both coaches agreed to play Friday and kickoff

Illinois voters reject sales tax hikes

(The Center Square) – Illinois voters have rejected sales tax referendums in four Illinois counties. The margins were similar in Adams, Crawford, Lake and Tazewell counties, with between 54% and 57% of voters saying no to a 1% sales tax for school facilities. Americans for Prosperity Illinois Deputy State Director Brian Costin said the election on Tuesday was about affordability, and there is tax fatigue in Illinois. “This was an election about Trump, and it shouldn't be an invitation for Democrats to go back down to Springfield or locally to just decide that they're going to try to grab more money, pass more referendums, because in all likelihood, the voters will reject that,” Costin told The Center Square. Costin noted that Gov. J.B. Pritzker defeated Republican Darren Bailey by 36 points in Lake County, but the sales tax referendum lost 57% to 43%. “I think it's a warning for Lake County and some of these other counties as well that these referendums are not something that's palatable or shouldn't be taken for granted, that the people are just going to automatically side with tax hikes,” Costin said. With the average sales tax hovering around 9% in Illinois, Costin said both

Separation referendum now approved by 44+ Illinois counties

(The Center Square) – Voters in 44 Illinois counties plus 11 townships in a 45th have now approved a referendum to consider separating from Cook County and forming a new state. Eleven townships in Adams County joined Coles, Gallatin, Hamilton, Henderson, Macoupin, McDonough, Monroe, Piatt, Saline, Warren and Washington counties by voting on Tuesday in favor of a nonbinding ballot question that was previously approved by 33 other Illinois counties. Illinois Separation Director Loret Newlin said six counties came in with less than 70% of voters saying yes. “That was a little bit disheartening, but we are moving into a different part of the state than we were initially. Our results were still very strong,” Newlin told The Center Square. Newlin said voter approval ranged from 57% in McDonough County to 90% in one Adams County township. “Hamilton was the strongest full county at 80%. The weakest one was McDonough which, frankly, I was concerned about whether McDonough would pass,” Newlin said. Counties that pass the referendum do not actually separate from Illinois, but they signal that they want in on discussions to possibly form a new state. Seven counties already have contact persons for separation referendum petitions in 2028.
