GRR: Plainfield
Plainfield kept its perfect record league record intact, defeating Rockford 20-5 at the Illinois Girls High School State Championship. The victory marks the Thundercats’ fourth consecutive state title.
Plainfield did not dominate the entire match. As the Thundercats weathered a yellow card issued to fullback Alishia Jordan for 10 minutes, the first half ended up scoreless.
The Illinois state girls high school final is set. Reigning champion Plainfield is poised to defend its state title; however, Rockford has proved a worthy opponent and will be vying for the 2015 trophy.
The girls high school Midwest Championship occurs this weekend in Elkhart, Ind., and a great cast of teams comprise Division I. The field is led by Wisconsin’s Divine Savior Holy Angels and Catholic Memorial, both of whom will be challenged by a host of state champions.
