Illinois 10
By Patrick Z. McGavin
On Thursday night, Waterloo achieved something not seen since June, 2019.
They took down top-ranked Triad 2-0, snapping a 39-game winning streak.
Triad was unbeaten in 41-consecutive games after beating Joliet Catholic in the Class AA third place game in 2019.
Their last loss came in the semifinal match against eventual state champion Benet.
With its impressive victory, Waterloo makes the leap from seventh to no. 2.
Triad’s body of work and the split with Waterloo is enough to maintain its top rank. In addition to the earlier win over Waterloo, Triad has victories over no. 3 and defending Class 3A champion O’Fallon, no. 5 and defending Class A champion Althoff, and no. 6 Alton.
