The penalty-filled matchup of Lincoln-Way East and Joliet West was an easy win for the undefeated conference champions as the Griffins won 42-6.
The game, which started late because of Senior Night celebrations, was repeatedly interrupted by laundry on the field and shouting matches between officials, coaches and even players. Posturing continued well into the second half.
Joliet West's season is over, finishing with a 3-6 record. The Griffins are 9-0 and can expect one of the top seeds in the Class 7A state playoffs. The playoff pairings will be announced Saturday night.
