    Hilltoppers 31 Marist 30 2OT FINAL

    Where did the idea that JCA won the coin toss for OT come from? It sure seems that is not the case. First of all, all this praise for going first against a tired defense is crazy. The huge advantage of going second and knowing whether the other team got 0,3,6,7,or 8 points is much more important...

    Sharing Some Hilltopper History

    The 30 mile rule applies to everybody. There is no exception for children of alums. Nor should there be. John Lausch and his son had many excellent options available to them when choosing a high school. They chose one of those excellent options. I am not going to question their thought processes.

    Coldest Playoff Game

    In 1991 JCA played Wheaton Central (their last year before becoming WWS) at Wheaton College in a 5A semi-final game. JCA lost 28-6. I was freezing the entire game and regretted every second that I was there. We had to park a mile away, I was not properly dressed for the weather and JCA lost. It...
