What better way to celebrate a STATE TITLE than a Father-SON Game? Cheerleader's and Players Fathers played against Lightweights first half, Heavyweights 2nd Half in the annual game. My Dad and I started, I came out and banked one in right away. Dad scored later on as he used to do with the Streator IL Bulldogs .. found some of his old Box-scores in his highschool days in 1953 when researching THESE stories of mine in 1972. He once scored 32 points in a Sectional game. Didn't know how good he was until I found his old scores using Newspapersdotcom accounts.

Chillicothe IL Pearce Mustangs vs Rantoul EATER GS Bulldogs. Down by 8 at half for the first time all year, our starters rallied us. Coach Tony Blue said LOOK AT THEM!! THEY THINK THEY WON ALREADY! *as we could see into the other locker room through the coaches room/glass windows all the way to the other side. Our coaches then pulled a rolling black-board between us and their view and we went to work with a new strategy on defense. The starters roared back into the lead and the rest is history as we WON beating Rantoul who beat 2 undefeated teams in the Tournament. THANKS to the IESA who sent these copies to me for this album
