FOOTBALL: Class 3A Sectional #25 Preview

THE FAVORITE

Andrean – The 59ers have lost one sectional game since the start of the 2007 tournament. That number shouldn’t increase this year. The big question is if this will be their last appearance in a 3A sectional for a while.

Mishawaka Marian – This is Andrean’s biggest competition in the sectional, by a pretty decent margin. The Knights come in with a solid 7-2 mark and their only losses are to New Prairie (8-1) and Mishawka (7-2). If any team can spoil the 59er coronation, it’s this one.

Calumet – See above regarding teams that are likely to appear in the championship always have, at least, a chance. The Warriors have two one win teams (Roosevelt & Knox) in their way of a title game appearance. For Calumet, who hasn’t been that far in over two decades, that’s something to be happy about. 

John Glenn – Probably the third best team in this sectional…unfortunately they are matched against the second best (Mishawaka Marian) in the opening round. If Glenn can eliminate Marian for the second straight year, they’ll get the Niners in the semi-finals, so that’s probably as far as they can go.
