! I love seeing all these talented teams crushing it on the court. My son is a freshman in high school now and he's just starting to get into basketball 
. It's so much fun watching him learn the game and make new friends on the team. As a parent, there's nothing quite like being able to cheer them on at their games 
. The Barreto Boys & Girls Club league looks especially competitive this year - I'm keeping an eye on Noble Academy, they're looking strong! 
anyway, I guess some of these wins were pretty close and intense 
️ like that Noble Academy vs Holy Trinity game was crazy with only 2 points separating them 
, 2 points difference is a big margin. What's up with all these close games though? It feels like every team is so evenly matched.
this season is getting more exciting by the week I'm loving how Noble Academy took down Holy Trinity in that close game 72-70, talk about a nail biter 
. But what really caught my eye is Malcolm X College's dominating performance against Gilbert Higley 
. Can't wait to see what these teams do next season! 
, but Maine East pulling off a win over Hinsdale Central is always a highlight 
. And CMSA's win over Disney? That's some serious momentum 
so crazy how these high school teams are killing it on the court this week! 
what's going on at Homewood-Flossmoor - Benet trouncing St Louis Chaminade (MO) like that? 
, I gotta say. Some teams were on fire 
. And what a day for Bloomington Central cruising past Joliet Catholic with an 83-69 score - they're looking strong this season 
. Still, the passion and excitement on display were infectious - basketball fans everywhere are loving this season so far 
.
