Monticello Faces Off With IC Catholic Saturday

A trip to Memorial Stadium in Champaign is up for grabs Saturday when the Monticello Sages play host to Elmhurst IC Catholic in Monticello. 
 
The Sages used another route to defeat Farmington Saturday 48-17, now they welcome undefeated IC Catholic to Monticello. Head coach of the Sages, Cully Welter, says his defense stepped up on a day when the offense wasn't as efficient as usual.
 
 
A loaded IC Catholic squad comes to town Saturday afternoon headlined by a runningback with a commitment to Northern Illinois. Coach Welter says while he gains a lot of the attention, their quarterback is a good player as well.
 
 
Both teams are undefeated.
