The last time Whitney Young...

...played Taft was in 2006. The Dolphins, who were 3-3 going into that game, edged the 1-5 Eagles, 25-24. Today the two Chicago Public League - Big Shoulders teams are 8-0 and 7-1, respectively.

(While Young is the alma mater of First Lady Michelle Obama, Terry Kath of Chicago, above, went to Taft.)

Is Whitney Young for real? Not only have they outscored their opponents, 322-12, but six of those eight wins were shutouts. Wow.

The regular season finale for both schools is at Lane Tech this afternoon. I've always wanted to see a game there.
