    MC vs SR Part 105

    Pains me to credit MC, but that was an incredible run in 88. They had to beat all the top teams in the state to win the title.

    MC vs SR Part 105

    Hard to imagine two better atmospheres than the 88 and 89 games. I was sitting on the MC side in 88, as close as you could get to 64th and Oakley. Was so dejected after MC dominated the 2nd half. I am sure there were bigger crowds for the MC v JCA games with McNabb and Alston, but that 89...

    MC vs SR Part 105

    I agree with the poster. I definitely respect MC, and all it represents. In today’s world and Chicago specifically, it is pretty unique and cool to see two all-boys south side city schools fighting for a state title birth at 77th & Western. I still wish the stadium at 63rd & Claremont was...

    MC vs SR Part 105

    That is the likely outcome. But SR is due for some magic. They should break out the 1994 unis

    SR 48 Quincy 14 final

    I think SR is 1-7 vs MC in playoffs, with the only win my junior year. The 1988 game was the most disappointing loss. Maybe they finally can beat the boys from 64th & Dante

    Question about old St.Rita Cronin Field

    Yes, public league used it for a couple years. Unfortunately, the stadium and school buildings were dilapidated, which is a factor why SR moved to 77th. If the 63rd street school buildings were more structurally stable, it would have been interesting whether SR followed MC's example and tried...

    St. Rita 7 @ Mt. Carmel 38 F

    He is not wrong. I graduated SR in 96. And bc my dad went to SR, I started following SR religiously in 1986 (Kenwood debacle was my first game). One of the Rita guys will help me, but I am guessing that SR has won less than ten times in the 40 or so meetings since I started following the...

    St. Rita Playing up in 7A

    I am probably in the minority, but I love the move. IMO, better to lose to the best team (MC), who is your historical rival, than win a 6A title.

    Novickas Dad played one of the great high school games of all time for SR in 89 at Gately

    Best uniforms in Illinois? - for fun

    SR grad here and I hate all the combos. It’s an absurd waste of money. Go with a classic white helmet (no helmet stickers except for one SR decal on each side) and a pair of white pants and a pair of red pants. You can have 3 jersey options (red, blue, and white). Prob my age (45), but I...

    MC @ St. Rita

    Thanks. I was a student for the 94 game which was special.

    MC @ St. Rita

    I’m too lazy to check, but I bet SR has only beaten MC about 4 times at 77th street,
