At least the heartbreaking ride home for Palatine’s mud-covered soccer players and water-logged coaches and fans was going to be a short one across town from Fremd.
My name is Marilyn Jamal. My son is Chris Jamal the Palatine Pirate's goal keeper. I am so proud of him and his team that never stopped working hard all year to win every game. It was a incredible win and a great upset to beat Granite City who was expected to win.
This was a standout memory as I was between the benches as part of the IHSA committee. Quietly pulling for Palatine as Prutch, Harold and Ternes played for me in club ball! Plus I was happy for Willie. And you were right, they almost did get by us! Good stuff again, Marty!
