Super Tuesday, Super Sectional Tuesday and Class 3A is going to be very competitive, anybody can win State in this class. Here we go in bracket order; NORTHERN ILLINOIS: Lutheran(Rockford) vs Notre Dame(Peoria)-Frankly I don't know a thing about either team so I will venture a guess: PREDICTION: PEORIA NOTRE DAME PUNCHES IT'S TICKET BACK HOME. SPRINGFIELD: Cahokia vs Lincoln- Lincoln is ranked #1 in the state in 3A and Cahokia has two division 1 players in St Louis signee Darius Austin (6'6" senior) and Drake signee CJ Rivers( 6'2" senior). Also Cahokia is looking for a return trip to Peoria for a school that almost shut all of it's athletic programs down for this season due to lack of funds. Obviously they received a reprieve. PREDICTION: CAHOKIA PUNCHES IT'S RETURN TRIP TO PEORIA!!!!!! JOLIET CENTRAL: Bogan(Chicago) vs Morgan Park(Chicago)- This game will be a way as both Red South rivals are meeting for a 4th time. Bogan won both regular season meetings and Morgan Park won at the semifinals of the Proviso West tournament. Luwane Pipkins (5'9" junior) has had a 45 point game in the playoffs and his backcourt mate Bryce Barnes (5'9" sophomore) will be key as well as Antonio Thomas (6'7"junior) will be key on the boards against a big Morgan Park team. As for Defending Class 3A Champ Morgan Park their keys will be defensive ace Lamont Walker(6'5" senior). His defense against Pipkins in the last 3 meetings has been outstanding. Josh Cunningham(6'7" senior) will have to dominate to put his team on top. Charlie Moore(5'9" sophomore) will have to play under control which I think he will PREDICTION: MORGAN PARK PUNCHES IT'S TICKET TO PEORIA AND GET A CHANCE TO DEFEND IT'S TITLE!!!!! HOFFMAN ESTATES: North Chicago vs Orr(Chicago)- I will be at this game once again this year. Last year Orr just ran all over North Chicago. A lot of trash talk the last part of last season by North Chicago saying Orr was scared to play them in the regular season. Orr shut down that talk with an emphatic beatdown last year here at Hoffman Estates. Will the same thing happen this year? Will North Chicago get revenge? Here's the breakdown:North Chicago's Big Three of Murray State signee Jayquan McCloud(6'4" senior), Toledo commit Kurt Hall(6'6" senior), and Javarious Amos-Mays (6'4" senior) will have to effect the game on both ends for North Chicago the whole game, not just in stretches. Minnesota State football signee Arnaud Shead(5'9" senior) will have to control the offense. Orr is shorthanded as Tyquone Greer (6'6" senior) was shot in the calf last weekend and is out for the rest of the season. Most teams that would be devastating but not this one. This is the most talented team in the City of Chicago with All-City Louis Adams Jr(6'4" senior), Malcolm Jones (6'8" senior), Isaiah Hayes (6'1" senior), Sire Caroll (6'7" senior) who stretches defenses with his three point shooting and is replacement for Greer in lineup. Sharp shooter Armani Ousley(6'1" senior) is back from grotesque ankle injury suffered in January vs Whitney Young. Here is my PREDICTION: ORR PUNCHES IT'S RETURN TICKET TO PEORIA!!!!!! THERE YOU HAVE IT, 3 OF THE 4 TEAMS FROM LAST YEAR WILL RETURN TO PEORIA!!!!!!!!! THIS IS MY RANT FOR TODAY, GOD BLESS AND PEACE TO THE CREATURES!!!!!!!
