No. 2 St. John Bosco will host the second-ever Trinity League vs. USA event this weekend. It was supposed to be a three-game event, but when Hawaii delayed the start of the 2021 due to COVID-19, the Mater Dei vs. Mililani game was cancelled.
The host Braves will be tested by Illinois-power East St. Louis. The Flyers are the top team in Illinois and ranked No. 90 in the latest High School Football America 100 powered by NFL Play Football. Nationally, SJB is ranked No. 5 this week.
