Note:  Morgan Park had a little drama on their front on Tues LoVett did not show-up to the game against Carver, it was reported that Nick Irvin did not attend either.  Apparently, Nick was searching for his star player’s where-abouts.  It turns out LoVett was in night school finishing up his final week of courses.  This created some buzz across the city and some good laughter!
