One site for the IHSA’s Super Sixteen was the Richton Park Sectional Championship; where the Bradley-Bourbonnais Boilermakers faced off against the Hawks of Hillcrest. This matchup was a rematch from earlier in the season.

FINAL: Bradley-Bourbonnais Community High School 42, Hillcrest 22.

After the game, head coach Andrew Harrington reflected on Hillcrest’s remarkable inaugural season.

“Hard work, effort and commitment can get anyone anywhere; from the ground up. I feel like that’s what we did. We came from nothing, not knowing anything about flag football to making it to the Sectional Finals and that’s quite an accomplishment.”

Special thank you to the IHSA, Steve Diversey (Rich TWP. Athletic Director), Andrew Harrington (Hillcrest Head Coach) and Tremaine Turner (B.B. Head Coach). (Total: 1:16 of “highlights”).
