Sycamore football finishes with heads held high

The emotions were too much for David Compher to hold back.

Just minutes after Sycamore's 24-22 loss to Montini on Saturday, the Sycamore senior wide receiver broke through a group of reporters to hug coach Joe Ryan on Duffy Memorial Stadium.

The player-coach embrace lasted a few seconds before a teary-eyed Compher headed back toward the locker room with his teammates, one of the final moments in a sterling career for the only player in Sycamore football history to play in four postseasons.
