    RIP Walt Williams

    A .270 career hitter in the 60's and early 70's? He would have been a millionaire many times over in today's game.

    The IHSA should pull a Big East

    Ramblin, where were you 43 years ago when the CCL voted to JOIN the IHSA? I don't think Pavlov's or Seligman's dogs voted to rid themselves of their independence. http://www.chicagocatholicleague.com/static.asp?path=2889
