No. 3 Simeon vs. No. 24 Morgan Park, 1 p.m. Saturday at Gately
It’s been a while since so much has been riding on the Battle of Vincennes. Both teams are 7-0 overall, 4-0 in the Red South and loaded with top talent. Simeon has had only one close call all season, beating Bolingbrook 35-31 in Week 2. Cincinnati recruit Malik Elzy is a top-300 prospect nationally capable of making game-changing plays as a receiver, defensive back and special teamer. Running back Andre Crews has multiple 200-yard games and a Kentucky offer. Morgan Park junior Tysean Griffin is also a multidimensional talent with three SEC offers (Arkansas, Missouri, Tennessee). Yet another two-way star is sophomore Jovan Clark, who earned his first Power Five offer (Maryland) as a freshman.
