#8 - Notre Dame de la Salette
#8 - Notre Dame de la Salette
This tiny private school in downstate Illinois doesn't back down from a challenge.
Despite struggling to get a win in league play, La Salette also knows they can't hide. Being in the Indiana Super League, they play two top-5 teams in Royal Irish and Penn HS, and another ranked team in Brownsburg. That's three league games and playoffs, as well.
Then you add in the Midwest tournament, where they played (and beat) St. Edward and Penn, and the Boys Nationals, where they faced Jesuit, Greenwich, and Mira Costa ... you can see that NDdLS does wilt at the prospect of a tough game.
Remember, we are ranking strength of schedule, not the win-loss record. So while in league play, league playoffs, Midwest playoffs, and nationals, they finished 3-7, all of those games save one were against highly-ranked opponents. La Salette's eight top-10 opponents is topped by only three teams.
Archbishop Riordan, Danville Oaks, West End, Granite Bay.
