Joliet Shuts Down and Shuts Out St. Pats
Chicago (Hanson Stadium) - Joliet Catholic's defense posted it's first shut out of the season in a 36-0 victory over Catholic metro White Conference rivals Chicago St. Patricks (0-3, 0-1), in a game that was closer than it looks. The Shamrock "D" showed up to play early on in this contest, stopping JC on 4th and 11, after their own offense was forced to punt on it's own first possession. Catholic High struck first though, on it's 2nd possession of the game, with 4:29 left in the 1st on a 14 yard pass from starting QB Jason Lynch, to TE Mike Kolodziej. Joliet Catholic lead 13-0 at half time after a late drive with 4 seconds left was capped off with a Craig Tomasino pass to J.R. Zwierzynsk with in a game that had seen 6 St. Pat's punts, 1 JC punt, a Craig Tomasino (JC) interception and 2 JC turnovers on downs. The second half seen Joliet Catholic's offense come to life, as the shamrock "D" seemed to get fatigued and watch half back Sean Lovell make a spectacular touchdown run. Lovell spun loose from two Shamrock defender's grips and bolted 25 yards, with only one shoe still on, into the endzone. Ironically Gruber plowed through the line for a 2 point conversion, only to emerge with both shoes hanging on only by the tape around his ankles. JC also scored on a 11 yard quarter back keeper and a 37 yard field goal, both by Craig Tomasino. A St. Pats fumble that was recovered by DE Tim Adelmann help set up the final Joliet score. Which was a Luke Stenberg run for 34 yards. JC faces 5A State Finals Runner-up Chicago Heights (Marian Catholic) (3-0, 1-0) next week. JC lead the series at 18-8-1 with the last meeting between these two schools coming in 1995 resulting in a 8-7 JC victory. Vincent Johnson |
