A 10-day break in what already was a shorter than usual football season is not what TF North s Jahnez Williams wanted or needed. It was exhausting, Williams said. Some of the guys were texting and stuff, talking to each other. They were like, I don t even know what to do, I m so bored.
The Meteors went into quarantine after an official who worked their game against Lemont on April 2 tested positive for COVID-19. Their game against Hillcrest last week was canceled, but they were able to return to practice on Wednesday.
In order to give North (1-2, 0-2 South Suburban Blue) more time to get up to speed after the layoff, TF South (3-1, 3-1) agreed to push back the annual District 215 rivalry game a day. Kickoff is set for noon Saturday at TF North.
