First in Widgets, First in Class 6A in Illinois

They say that good things come to people who wait. They might also say that good things come to people who use the MaxPreps’ Widget.

Though exact documentation is difficult to obtain, it is widely believed that the Sacred Heart-Griffin football web site in Illinois was the first in the nation to deploy the widget earlier this fall. For that we have SHG’s Man of Steele, assistant coach Frank Steele, to thank.

Accordingly, one first-place finish has led to another. Sacred Heart-Griffin captured the 2008 Illinois Class 6A championship last Saturday, downing Lemont, 37-15, at the University of Illinois’ Memorial Stadium.

The Cyclones run a fabulous web site overall, one that is presently featuring a streaming audio re-broadcast of their state championship victory. Kudos to the Cycs both on and off the field.
