    CCL/ESCC Week IV

    Are the QB and #1 WR still out? If that was known last week the spread would have changed dramatically vs Rice.

    Rice 28 Rita 10

    BR’s massive defensive front was a big problem for SR as was MC’s last week. BR has a lot of talent on their team and with a couple of transfers they got they will tough draw in the playoffs. I think if they stay healthy they should be hoisting a trophy Thanksgiving weekend. They are one of...

    No Feeto, no problem...Part 2

    If Rita was to beat BR it would be a big upset. Rita had to come from behind to beat Marist at home 28-21 scoring the go ahead touchdown with a few seconds on the clock. BR went to Marist and beat Marist in a shutout by 35 points. BR should be a 28 point favorite looking at this small sample...

    MC 35, SR 14: Q4

    MC at home after a big win on the national stage should be prohibitive favorite. What I’m looking for from Rita is to play their game till the final whistle. What I mean is don’t get crazy if the fall behind early. I think Rita keeps it closer than most think it should be. But MC in the end...

    Having had younger family members go to both schools for Marist and Rice there is no bigger game.

    St. Rita 28, Marist 21 plus Recap

    The above is my post. While watching game I had to remind myself these are both state top 25 teams. Errors are magnified against good teams. With a big size advantage, a very good running game, and three SR 4th down penalties I don’t know how Marist lost. The difference was SR having a...

    Rita's Papal Privilege

    Invite was extended to do the coin flip for the homecoming game. The 50/50 pot would be worth investing in that week. The last Pope to visit in 1979...

    Tony Simmons attended St. Rita High School. In 1993, he was named Chicago Sun-Times Prep Athlete of the Year for his participation in both football and track. As a senior, Simmons won the state championship in the 100- and 200-meter dash events with times of 10.5 seconds and 21.58 seconds...

    Q of the Week: Who is your Sleeper Team To Watch for 2025?

    With the veteran QB, a sold RB and WR's the offense can go a long way of helping defense by minimizing the 3 and outs on offense. If the QB can manage the offense w/o trying to do too much by himself this team should be a solid contender in the playoffs. He needs to be the general on the...

    St. Rita: 2025 Schedule

    Cancer surgery at the end of August and radiation November and December. Dong ok now. Weight down to what it was when I was in high school. The QB should be the leader. Trial by fire getting thrown in to mix as a a sophomore. As a senior he needs to manage the offense. If SR wins the turnover...

    St. Rita: 2025 Schedule

    Tough opening and then road warriors to end the season. Have to stay healthy. It would be nice not to have play MC the first few rounds of the playoffs.

    Naz @ Rita

    My experience if I go to the game is person the camera works perfectly. If I try to watch the game online the camera experiences catastrophic failure!

    What team do you root AGAINST? Why?

    During the playoffs I root for all of the CCL teams, so I guess I'm rooting against all the other teams.

    What HS team do you root for

    If I moved and stayed in Illinois Sterling area would be on my short list as with Morris Illinois area. Playoff football over 50 plus years has taken me all over the state, but those two communities kind of hit a cord with me. Sterling were very friendly hosts. I follow them ever year since...
