Rich East (1-3) is five games into its season, but it hasn't met anyone harder than the team challenging it next. It takes on Crete-Monee (3-1) this Saturday at 12:00 PM. Crete-Monee will be looking to take advantage of a struggling Rich East defense that has allowed an average of 31.5 points per game.
Rich East lost to Thornton by a decisive 56 - 40 scoreline last week. Rich East fell despite improving upon an already solid 22-point performance the game before.
Meanwhile, Crete-Monee brought some tenacious defense (the best it has had all year) into its match last week. It crushed Bloom last week, winning 71 - 0. Crete-Monee is ranked 23rd in the state (many places ahead of Bloom), so the decisive victory wasn't entirely unexpected.
