The 2009 high school football season is well under way and after a few setbacks--the sideline death of Curie's Quaashi Chandler and the game ending brawl between North Chicago and Simeon--things are as normal as one could hope for.
A big congrats to head coach Bert Kooi and his boys in Minooka for their 21-14 victory over one time Minooka head coach Mike Briscoe and his team at Plainfield South.
With that big win, maybe the attention of some has been caught and the Indians might sneak into a Top 25 sometime soon. But they'll have to keep at it. Friday night will determine if they can stay at it when they go to Oswego East, even though East hasn't won a game yet this season and has only scored twenty points this year, while allowing 32+ in each of its games.
Prediction:
Minooka 42, Oswego East 7--Minooka QB Mitch Brozovich runs for 117 yds and 2 scores while collecting 247 yards and a touchdown through the air.
