Lake Zurich will now face the Glendbard West Hitters. Game time is 1 p.m. in the semifinals.  Last season LZHS upset Glenbard West in Glen Ellyn in the 2nd round of the IHSA playoffs.   Back in 2009 Glenbard West defeated LZHS (at LZHS) in the IHSA Semifinal Game in the last 6-seconds of the game, according to the Quarterback Club’s John Schnecker.

Schnecker advises those going to the game to get there early as parking is not good.
