whiteshoes Posted July 16, 2019 Posted July 16, 2019 If you want to see two great high school teams from out of state play, it is worth the drive to Michigan City on August 31st to watch Wilmette (IL) Loyola Academy play Cleveland (OH) St. Ignatius. Both are top level teams in their respective states and both are highly rated coming into this season. Since Indiana teams are reluctant to schedule out-of-state and we still have that antiquated travel rule, this gives us a chance to see some great talent from our bordering states. 2 Quote

I assume they will be playing at Ames Field. I will definitely take the opportunity to go and root hard against St. Ignatius. Decked out in all my St. Ed’s gear. #screwIggies By the way, do you know anything about the officials for that game? Edited July 16, 2019 by Bobref 1 2 Quote
Gipper Posted July 16, 2019 Posted July 16, 2019 Very familiar with the Ramblers (Loyola for those of you scoring at home) and have a keen interest in going. Don't forget: Blue Chip Casino and Lighthouse Place Premium Outlets, what's not to love? Quote

Gipper Posted July 18, 2019 Posted July 18, 2019 I think Notre Dame Stadium would be a lot closer to half way... Quote

Guest Posted July 19, 2019 Posted July 19, 2019 Fort Wayne (St. Francis?) would be more of a midway point... Quote
Indian72 Posted July 19, 2019 Posted July 19, 2019 Why not Rice Field in Elkhart More stands on visitors side Quote
