RELATED: Simeon Returns To The FAB 50!

Chicago Simeon faced Red South rivals Morgan Park (19-6) for the Chicago City title (for the first time). Led by junior Kezo Brown's 26 points, the Simeon Wolverines (24-3) won their 8th Public League basketball title (2nd in a row) 68-64 at Chicago State on the city's South Side. With the win, the Wolverines return to the FAB 50 national rankings at No. 46.
After sitting out most of his sophomore season due to health issues, Kezo's performance cemented his status as one of the city's top players regardless of class.
Matching up against Chicago's highest rated prospect and fellow Mac Irvin Fire AAU teammate Ayo Dosunmu (16 points, 5 assists) for much of the contest, Kezo had his hands full.
And he got help from his Simeon teammates. Senior guard Evan Gilyard (UTEP) added 18 points including 10 in the 4th quarter. Talen Horton-Tucker scored 13 points to go with 11 rebounds. Messiah Jones added 6 points, 7 rebounds and a very timely block in the final minute.
Melo Burrell scored 15 points with 10 rebounds and Lenell Henry score 15 for Morgan Park. Following the game, Henry picked up an offer from Chicago State.

Ballislife will continue following Simeon and Morgan Park in their quests for Illinois state titles.

Simeon vs Whitney Young: Chicago Public League Powerhouses Collide!

Scott Comeau — Fri, 23 Dec 2016 00:27:04 +0000

Arguably the 2 highest profile Public League high school teams in Chicago (and perhaps the nation), Simeon and Whitney Young renewed their rivalry at the UIC Pavilion just before the holidays.
There are no more Jahlil Okafor and Jabari Parker battles (both won Illinois state titles), but there's still quality, hard-fought basketball.
Nationally-ranked, undefeated Simeon held off top ten Chicago team Whitney Young 59-52. In the end it was Simeon's 6'5 reserve Madison Lowery, better known as a baseball player, whose 17 rebounds were the difference in the game.
Simeon's do-everything, breakout junior Talen Horton-Tucket scored 17 points and junior guard Kezo Brown finished with 13. Tied at 44, it was Lowery, Horton-Tucker and Brown who took over.
Young's junior PG Xavier Castaneda led the Dophins with 16 points and transfer Javon Freeman scored 12 off the bench. Young's breakout senior Lucas Williamson finished with 11 points.
Check out these raw highlights from Simeon vs Whitney Young.

Simeon wins Public League Championship with Chicago's top duo Zachary Norvell + Evan Gilyard

Scott Comeau — Thu, 25 Feb 2016 07:29:27 +0000

South Side Kenwood Academy (19-4) played in the Chicago Public League's title game for the first time in school history when they faced South Side powerhouse Simeon (24-3) at Chicago State University in front of 6,000+ fans (hugely Kenwood supporters).
Winning his first varsity city title of his career 54-49, Simeon senior and leading-scorer Zachary Norvell (Gonzaga) finished with 18 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists. He led every aspect of Simeon's first 3 quarters of the game.
Feisty 5'10 junior point guard Evan Gilyard scored 14 of his 16 points in the 4th quarter including 9 straight at one point. Breakout versatile sophomore reserve Talen Horton-Tucker added 5 points, 7 rebounds.
Kenwood was led by unsigned seniors Zion Morgan, (15 points, 4 rebounds) and Nick Robinson (13 points, 8 rebounds, 3 blocks).
If Simeon's 7th Public league title on Sunday wasn't impressive already, it came on the heels of beating #1 Morgan Park on Friday and #6 Evanston on Saturday.
Thanks to everyone at Chicago State University, CPS, Simeon, and Kenwood for a memorable season of Public League basketball.
Next, Kenwood and Simeon will both be trying to win the Class 4A Illinois state title.

Simeon + Morgan Park Battle to the Buzzer in City Playoffs! Charlie Moore, Ben Coupet Shine!

Scott Comeau — Tue, 23 Feb 2016 21:14:44 +0000

Ballislife started following Simeon seniors Ben Coupet and Zack Norvell as 8th graders. At Beasley Academic Center, the 2 won city titles. There was much anticipation when the 2 attended high school together at South Side powerhouse Simeon Career Academy. 4 years later, Simeon's leading scorer Zack is commited to play college ball at Gonzaga. He's considered one of the top players in Illinois' Class of 2016. 6'7 Ben Coupet is a valued starter and quiet contributor for Simeon, but has never put up big numbers until now.
Chicago's 2 top high school teams (and biggest rivals) met for the rubber match in the City semifinals. Soldout in advance, both teams won on the road during the season's earlier meetings. The winner at Quest Multisport headed to the City Title game.
It wasn't always pretty, but both teams fought til the final whistle. In the end Ben Coupet's career night (24 points, including 4-6 from 3, 7 rebounds) led #2 Simeon (22-3) to a 74-72 win over #1 Morgan Park despite 26 points, 5 assists from Memphis bound PG Charlie Moore.
As you will see in the video, the final 20 seconds were chaotic! Up 74-72 Simeon missed a FT, layup and putback but Morgan Park couldn't manage to score as time expired.
Zack Norvell added 16 points, 5 rebounds for Simeon and Western Michigan commit Jarrin Randall added 9 points on 3x3-pointers for Morgan Park. Simeon PG Evan Gilyard provided key energy in the second half.
Simeon went on to win the city title less than 48 hours later (first since 2012), but this matchup was a game to remember!
Simeon are #34 in the latest Ballislife Fab 50 national rankings and Morgan Park fall to #39.
Now both will compete in the Illinois state tournament.
Thanks to Jerry and everyone at Quest Multisport, CPS, Simeon, and Morgan Park for a memorable season.

Evan Gilyard vs Charlie Moore: Top Chicago Guards, Intense Simeon-Morgan Park Rivalry Game!

Scott Comeau — Sat, 30 Jan 2016 03:09:49 +0000

The most competitive Public League High School basketball in the country can likely be found in Chicago. It just so happens the top 2 basketball programs in the state of Illinois are also in the same conference (Chicago's Red South), are located five miles down the street (Vincennes) from one another, and are also bitter rivals.
Over the last 3 years, Morgan Park has won 2 state titles (3a) and finished 3rd in 2015. They're currently the top team in Illinois and are unbeaten in-state this season (1 loss in Detroit). Simeon has cemented itself as a national power under Coach Rob Smith (6 state titles last ten seasons) producing Derrick Rose, Jabari Parker and more.
When they play (twice a year in conference or for city title), it's a battle. The gym is always sold-out with friends, family, classmates and fans and cameras are rolling.
Typically Simeon hosts 1 game and Morgan Park's "home game" gets moved to a larger neutral site as Morgan Park's antiquated gym accommodates only 250 fans. This season, after threatening a much-publicized boycott if the game were to be held elsewhere, Morgan Park hosted their home game for the first time in years in their tiny South Side gym.
Security was intense and the game was sold-out in advance. Morgan Park had defeated Simeon on the road last month.
This time #4 Simeon (17-3) came into #1 Morgan Park's (16-2) gym and left with a 60-57 upset victory.
Simeon junior point guard Evan Gilyard finished with 24 points (4 3-pointers) to lead the Wolverines.
Illinois Mr Basketball contender, Memphis-commit Charlie Moore (Morgan Park) scored 19 but needed more support from his teammates.
Simeon senior Zachary Norvell Jr (Gonzaga) scored 18 with 7 rebounds. Rarely-used Simeon reserve, 6'5 junior Madison Lowery came off the bench in the second half and scored a career high 10, giving his team a lift.
Enjoy this extended video from Ballislife as we try to give you a closer look at Chicago HS basketball's best rivalry.
Check out these extended highlights and postgame coverage of Morgan Park versus Simeon from Chicago's South Side.
Thanks to everyone at Morgan Park, Simeon and Chicago Public Schools.
