@LesWinkeler @deuceandabuse They go on to finish the regular season undefeated, roll through the postseason. Defeating their 1A opponents by an average of 45 points. The knights are state champs...fair? Hardly, but boy they were fun to watch....

@LesWinkeler @deuceandabuse Picture this, AGAPE gains IHSA postseason play for 2023. They hire a young upstart former AAU coach. He recruits all over southern Illinois on the promise of big dreams and D1 scholarships. He nabs 10 of the best Southern Illinois has to offer, and one from Kentucky.
