Latest Update: 
(You might need to "Refresh" this page if you check it regularly.)

 

Please continue to email any updates or corrections that you know about, and I will keep this page as accurate as possible. Please don't send attachments, just type in the info.

"Jones crew at 6A Sycamore," is easy right?

Please, please, PLEASE include the IHSA class (5A, etc) of the game!

Best for me is for you to just put your info on the SUBJECT line.

Thanks for all your help and support which is what makes this page such a great success!
