1 day agoPrep sports roundup: Zion Phelps of Loyola proves he's fastest in the Mission League
Zion Phelps set a school record in the 100 meters, showcasing his potential in track and football at Loyola High.
Josiah Nance, a 6-foot-4 junior guard, volunteered to guard 7-foot-4 Cherif Millogo of St. Francis in the third quarter on Thursday night in a tight game. "It was a challenge," he said. "They were letting us be tough. Most physical guy wins." Nance couldn't have been more correct. He was so effective guarding Millogo despite having three fouls that Notre Dame turned a five-point halftime lead into a 20-point bulge through three quarters en route to a 71-48 victory.
"What today showed is that there's an ideological difference and divide in parochial schools and the Mission League," he said. "We will never be in position to control our own destiny and rules will be bent and circumvented in order for the Mission League not to control our destiny."
