Geez, you would think that after going 12-1 last year and creating a total football buzz in the community that Antioch could have done better with its football scheduling for 2009.
Alas, the Sequoits are collateral damage in the scheduling mess created by the Fox Valley Conference having a unwield 13-team league.
Forced to find two new opponents for non-conference games during Weeks 1 & 2 of the season, Antioch wound up settling for two road games -- at Streamwood & at Waukegan. Then, on Week 3, is yet another road game, this time at Warren.
All told, Antioch has just THREE homes games this fall because the North Suburban Conference crossover game against a Lakes Division team (Warren) is a home game for the Lakes Division.
Guess the Sequoits will have to make it up to their fans by hosting 2-3 playoff games.
