Our Illinois state government run high school sports? Horrible, Horrible idea. They can't even run our state very well and we want politicians who don't understand education run high school sports? One of the worst ideas I've heard.

Congratulations @gus_rugaard for making the @holidaytourney All-Tournament team and the Mr. Hustle award !!

[Brad Underwood @CoachUnderwood]

So proud of @DAWilliams14 & his journey! Was the first in home visit I ever did as the head coach at Illinois & now a graduate of the Police Training Institute.

His desire to learn & ability to listen not only made him a good teammate but a great person. Peoria has so much to be proud of.

Monte left an incredible impact on this program & I know he'll leave an even bigger one on the communities he's going to serve.
Congratulations!
