JACOBSON: Rivalry flipped upside down
For Sycamore’s David Compher, the short distance from Northern Illinois’ Huskie Stadium to the Convocation Center might as well have been miles upon miles.
While the Spartans have controlled the DeKalb-Sycamore rivalry on the gridiron, the Barbs had been equally as dominant on the hard court, winning the past 11 matchups over the past five years.
Nobody on Sycamore’s roster had beaten the Barbs in hoops. Not Compher. Not junior co-captain Devin Mottet. Not second-year coach Andrew Stacy.
