Coach Sly: Counting on a better week
Sly'll be honest, last week might have been about as ugly a week for our local boys hoopsters as there's been this season.
Batavia lost its fifth game in a row to not-so-mighty Streamwood, and has injury problems. Geneva was torn to pieces by 40(!) points against St. Viator. St. Charles East stunk it up in a home loss to Larkin on Saturday, and on the same night, St. Charles North failed to dig out of a 28-5 hole to Metea Valley.
The news wasn't much rosier to the west, where Kaneland was upset by Morris in a damaging conference loss.
Misery loves company, Sly supposes.
All of the above makes this week very, very interesting. Which teams have the character to bounce back, and which teams will let the doom and gloom snowball?
It's got to get better, and not just because it can't get worse, as the song goes. After all, Batavia plays North as well as Geneva this weekend.
