In no order:

Providence
Montini
GBN
Wilmington
Marist/Mt. Carmel

Maybe these teams are not always "great" but year in and year out they are very competitive.

I know I am a bit biased here, but Minooka is consistently strong and competitve 14 Regional titles since 1983 and dual team appearances in 4 out of the past 6 years, including 2nd this year. The big success is recent, but still strong in years past.

How about Sandburg? I think they have three team state championships in the last five years. That is pretty strong!

Look at the programs who have to do with what lives near by. I DO NOT want to start a public private debate but look at some of these programs:
Harvard
Sandburg
GBN
Libertyville
Wlimington
Grant
Dundee Crown
OPRF

All win year in and year out no matter what, I can not remember any of them being down for any long period of time. No they may not place in state every year, but they are good every year

Well i say Glenbard North is best. Just because they proved to be one of the best in the state after losing a lot from last year and they are a public school which does make it a littl e harder. Carl Sandburg and Providence always has great teams. OPRF seems like it is only a one year think from then. Minooka is a team that looks like to be one of the big powerhouses. They seem to have a top 10 team every year since the past like 5 years. Then Wilmington just had a three peat. And Don't forget about Montini.
1. Glenbard North
2. Montini
3. Providence
4. Carl Sandburg
5. Wilmington
HM Mt. Carmel, Minooka, Edwardsville, Hononegah, Nequa Valley, Grant, Mahomet-Seymore, Harvard
