Welcome to Rockne Stadium, where 6,000 fans will witness a brand-new chapter in Chicago high school football as the Whitney Young Dolphins take on the Morgan Park Mustangs for the first time ever. Though these two powerhouse programs have never faced off, this highly anticipated inaugural meeting promises to spark a fresh rivalry filled with pride, intensity, and high-stakes football, and will be featured as one of over 100 games in the 22nd season of the Great American Rivalry Series. 

This game marks the first-ever matchup between Whitney Young and Morgan Park. Morgan Park enters the season fresh off a 10–2 campaign that included a deep run to the Elite 8 in the state playoffs. On the other sideline, Whitney Young posted an impressive 12–2 record and reached the second round of the playoffs, proving they’re a team hunting a state title. 

Set for September 19th, this game kicks off a potential new rivalry between two of the city’s most competitive programs — and fans won’t want to miss the beginning of what could become a classic.
