Dyett High School won the Class 2A state championship, defeating Belleville Althoff 52-41. This marks a significant achievement for Dyett, which has transformed from a struggling team to a champion in less than a decade. The Eagles, led by senior Jayden McKinnon, who scored 17 points, took control of the game in the fourth quarter. This victory is notable as it is Dyett's first state tournament appearance and the first championship for a Chicago Public League team since 2018. Dyett's success follows a challenging history, including a near closure in 2015. The team has shown improvement over the years, moving up from lower divisions and competing strongly in recent seasons.
