I'm kinda surprised at how predictable most of these top-ranked teams were on Monday . I mean, sure, they dominated some of their opponents, but that's just the expectation when you're expected to be so good . Don't get me wrong, it's still cool to see upsets happen and surprise everyone, but sometimes I wish we'd see more competitive games from the top teams . And what's with all these blowout scores? Like, 72-70 is a pretty significant margin in basketball . It makes me wonder if some of these teams are just phoning it in while others are really pushing themselves to win .
Monday's high school hoops had some crazy upsets ! Like, did you see South Beloit go down to Richmond-Burton? That was wild! And I'm still trying to process how Johnsburg lost to Rockford Lutheran - they're like the team that never gives up . But hey, it's always fun to watch those underdog stories come true . Dwight beating Midland 66-54 is pretty sweet too . The Tri-County Conference had some intense matchups and I love how Fenton just ran over West Chicago . On a more neutral note, Bolingbrook's win over Lincoln Park was super impressive - they really brought their A-game !
