Broncos buck Redskins

CHAMPAIGN — For just the second time in IHSA football history, a team has now won four straight state titles in a single class. Via its 19-6 win over Morris in the Class 5A championship on Saturday, the Montini Broncos join Joliet Catholic Academy (4A - 1975, 76, 77, 78) as the only team to claim four titles in a row. Addison Driscoll has the all-time Illinois record for seven straight titles over two classes.

"Our congratulations go out to Montini, coach (Chris) Andriano and their players. I can't say enough about their players," Morris coach Alan Thorson said.

Montini got two big plays on offense and parlayed that into a 13-0 lead at halftime. Dimitri Taylor scored on a 74-yard TD run and he scored again on a 48-yard TD pass from Alexander Wills.
