It's all about Belleville rivalry for this game. Belleville East vs Belleville West - this is Cardinals vs Cubs type of competition. Both teams brought their A game. A Saturday matchup in the middle of the day, there should have been no Friday night lights needed, but heavy clouds and rain brought the lights on anyway.

At half time, it was tied 7 to 7, and as the players walked off the field, the lightning started. I think I hear the announcer for the game now, so I'm guessing play has continued. I'm probably missing quite a second half since the turf will be wet.
