Loyola by at least 3 scores unless IC decides not to play it's starters again. If that's the case the clock will run.

I'm not always a fan of this method in high school but IC needed a late fourth quarter comeback to beat Iggy who LA just beat by 31. I like LA by 4 scores. They are firing on all cylinders right now.

IC will probably have the best player on the field, but I can’t see them keeping pace with Loyola.

I haven't been following them closely enough to know that is what they have done or been doing. It is a very interesting way to develop your mid tier talent by putting them in the baptism of fire to motivate their best play. Great educational technique rather than merely using the top of the class to be in truly competitive situations. They actually do attempt to educate their entire team. With the variance of quality of teams they play, they lift each students practical experience rather than just mop up time against those that have already been drained and having their will be depleted or lesser talented players. If it means that the starters walk into an actual comeback situation, they are put into higher level of pressure and their abilities and mentalities are tested at a higher level than would otherwise be available. I appreciate that sort of way to develop more players to enjoy the benefits of higher pressure situations and to have to perform at a higher level of play.

This is not a serious response.

What they did to hang with a school nearly 7 times larger well into the 4th quarter shows that they do something special at that school to attain the level at which they play. I suppose that a serious response would have been something to the effect that what does it matter what they do the big bad Ramblers will just eat them alive. That obviously wasn't the case. I was very impressed last year at just how well little Montini was able to play at the level of the very big boys and this year ICC has impressed me even more. When these lower enrollment schools can compete with the larger private schools to that extent it isn't just the luck of the draw that elevates them to that level. I might be all wet in my evaluation of ICC's reasons for overachieving but they are definitely doing something different to get there. I respect the attempts they make at carving another path upward. It is as compared to the norm more than mildly impressive.
