The Parker Junior High Falcons showed incredible heart last night in their regional championship game. After 11 hard-fought innings and a 0-0 score, the game was called due to darkness.
You don’t get to an undefeated regular season without grit, determination, skill, and focus, and our Falcons have all of that and more.
Let’s pack the stands today and cheer them on as they resume their fight for the championship! Game time is 4:30 p.m. at Grant School in Chicago Heights. Come out and support our Falcons!
