AURORA – It’s fitting that Aurora Central Catholic firmly threw its hat into the 2012 playoff ring win with a resounding 55-0 pounding of Suburban Christian Gold conference foe Guerin. 

ACC’s mistake-filled 18-15 loss to the Gators a year ago pretty much sealed yet another season without a playoff appearance. Fumbles, penalties and general poor play provided the nails to the Chargers’ 2011 coffin.

An offseason of hard work and memories of the 2011 meeting against Guerin provided more than enough motivation for the current ACC squad.
