Why is it that such a high percentage of Illinois boys who've recently won an NCAA National Championship attended Bridgedale Academy? 

Ditto with respect to Illinois boys who've moved on to USA Hockey's NTDP, or been NHL Drafted, or are now in contention for the prestigious Hobey Baker Memorial Award.
