Kenwood hasn't had much luck against Morgan Park recently, but that could start to change on Saturday. The Broncos will square off against the Mustangs at 11:00 a.m. Each of these teams will be fighting to keep a win streak alive as Kenwood comes in on six and Morgan Park on five.
Kenwood is headed into the contest after thoroughly thrashing Payton College Prep: they outscored them in every quarter.
