@samholcomb_ is a generational QB and he is the clear #1 QB in the 2030 class! @BrotherRiceFB @QBCoachHolc

A great atmosphere at Brother Rice last night. A lot for the CCL to be proud about. Big crowd, excellent young players stepping up for both teams. Both coaches complimented the other in the post game. No one ran away without talking. After a game of that magnitude there is usually something that rubs the wrong way. Not the case last night. chicago.suntimes.com/high-sc…
