East St. Louis is THE dominant team in their conference. Only one team (Alton) ever challenges them.

The talent in downstate Illinois generally isnt as good as the Chicagoland area (i.e. this year Normal Community was thought to be one of the best, if not the best, downstate teams and got solidly smashed by Joliet Catholic, the eventual state champion).

My high school team played Alton in the 2006 playoffs (thats a 5 hour drive for my school). They were something like 8-1 with their only loss to East St. Louis. My school was like 5-4 and from the same conference as annual powerhouses Joliet Catholic and Carmel (which is a different school from the other powerhouse Mt. Carmel). My school won 42-14 i do believe. It was an utter blowout.
