More sources for Wildkit pride was the news that Prince Adams and Josh Thomas were selected to first team CSL-South All-Conference and Jonah Ross was selected for the CSL-South Sportsmanship award.

The Wildkits’ final game of the regular season is 7 p.m. Friday, Feb. 17, at Beardsley against Lake Forest.

Then the ETHS boys will face Conant High School in Hoffman Estates on Wednesday, Feb. 22, in the regional semifinals of the Illinois High School Association Class 4A sectional tournament.
