50 - 48 in a game they trailed almost the whole game and took the lead with 9 seconds. It’s amazing the added excitement when you know the kids.
I think they play a small skokie school in Elgin to go to state.

My daughter's "team" (she's in the program, but a freshman not dressing varsity) lost last night by 4 in a good game against Robinson. Honestly, making it to the Sectional Final was probably farther than anyone expected.
Surprised to see that a number of good teams they played have been knocked out. The only one left is 1A Altamont led by a girl headed to Illinois State next year.
My HS is the 1 seed in their sub-Sectional. Would be something if they got somewhere after winning the state championship in football. We've never been a boys basketball school.
Going to watch my nephew play against Newton in their gym for the Regional Final tonight. His team beat Newton there earlier in the year, hopefully they can again. (Will be my 4th straight night in that gym as the girls Sectional was also hosted by Newton.)
