There’s ‘Mo’ to come

SOMONAUK — Tom McGunnigal said he was happy to be in the Sweet 16 following his Lady Bruins’ 47-41 win over Aurora Christian at the Somonauk 2A sectional. Then, he thought for a second and said, “I want Mo, I want Mo.”

He got plenty of “Mo” Monday ... Mo Dean that is. The 6-3 senior center scored 10 straight points in the fourth quarter, finishing with 25 overall, to lift the Lady Bruins into the Sweet 16 against sixth-ranked Byron (30-2) in Thursday’s sectional finals at 7:30 p.m.

“You’ve got to go to your horse,” McGunnigal said. “She’s our heart and soul, offensively. We went at her. Missed a couple easy ones, but you know what, we’re going to take that. Doesn’t shoot 100 percent, but there’s no doubt about it, she’s a good centerpiece for our offense.”
