Ethan Pocic, the LSU football recruit, spent time in Florida this month with some of the best high school football players in the country. He was joined by his Lemont coach, Eric Michaelsen.
Ethan Pocic, the lumbering Lemont graduate and LSU-bound football recruit, was lauded by his coach for his toughness and willingness "to play through pain and sickness." That toughness is what helped the 6-foot-6, 290-pound left tackle land at LSU, one of the most consistently great college football teams in the country. At the Under Armour All-American Game earlier this month, that toughness was on display: Pocic fought through a virus he had and then dislocated his finger on the second play, though decided to sit out the rest of the time. "They told me, 'It's just an All-Star game, stay healthy,'" Pocic said, recalling his experience. Although he didn't get to play the rest of the game, Pocic said he had a fantastic time in Florida.

Lemont kicker Joe Hehir's missed extra point attempt cost the Indians a 21-20 loss in overtime to T-F South.
Breaking It Down: When Joe Hehir lined up for a 42-yard field goal with 8 seconds left in regulation to break a 14-14 tie with T-F South, Lemont fans had reason to feel confident. Even though the kicker had missed an attempt in the second quarter, Hehir had connected on over 50-yard field goals previously. He won the game for Lemont in a similar situation just a week earlier. But, he could only put his head down, as he walked back to the Lemont sideline after watching his kick bounce off the field goal post's bottom crossbar. T-F South was able to take advantage of its new life in overtime, and took a 21-14 lead after Joe Young broke a tackle on his way to a 2-yard touchdown. Lemont's offense did not flinch, scoring on a Mitch Balek 5-yard…
