Joliet Catholic will be...

...at Marist tonight and, if the last two years are any indication, the game could be a shoot-out.

Since Pat Dunne (that's him in the picture above, not a student) took over the Red Hawks, Marist has won two out of the last three:

2011: MARIST 56, Joliet Catholic 51
2010: JOLIET CATHOLIC 49, Marist 42
2009: MARIST 24, Joliet Catholic 17

Before that, it was all JC:

2008: JOLIET CATHOLIC 29, Marist 14
2007: Joliet Catholic 55, MARIST 0
2006: JOLIET CATHOLIC 42, Marist 7
2005: Joliet Catholic 26, MARIST 0
2004: Joliet Catholic 42, MARIST 0

Coach Dan Sharp (above, with running back Ty Isaac) is 163-31 and has won six IHSA titles since joining JC in 1997. Wow!

But tonight belongs to Marist.
