The Cary-Grove High School principal has apologized after the school’s students started cheers calling for Bears coach Matt Nagy’s job during a football game against a Lake Forest High School team that featured Nagy’s son.
Video surfaced of Saturday’s game in which the student section began cheering “Fire Nagy!” during the fourth quarter. Brayden Nagy is a junior on the LFHS team.
“I want to assure our community that the chant was not acceptable nor appropriate and was immediately addressed by administration at the game,” principal Neil Lesinski said in a latter to Cary-Grove families. “We also felt it was important to meet with our student superfans that lead our chants and cheers to talk about what happened and gie them an opportunity to reflect and correct their actions.”
Cary-Grove beat Lake Forest in the 6A semifinals, 40-7, to reach their sixth state finals in school history.
Nagy’s Bears are 3-7 entering Thursday’s game against the Lions.
