Hoffman Estates’ winning ways continue vs. Schaumburg
Updated Jan 7, 2022 9:06 PM
After getting past Elk Grove in a Mid-Suburban League crossover on Tuesday night, Schaumburg boys basketball coach Wade Heisler began to turn his attention towards a return to West division play with a home date Friday against Hoffman Estates. This time for Heisler, though, it would be a contest that had a different meaning. He would do battle against a Hoffman squad that had a new head coach in Peter McBride, who previously assisted the Saxons’ program the past three seasons. And it would be McBride’s Hawks who would prevail on this night, 58-45.
