Football

After losing the first two games of the season, the team has secured their first two victories against Zion-Benton and Lake Forest. 

With a 45-0 win, the Bears triumphed in their defeat against the Zee-Bees. Five minutes into the first quarter, Jack Moses, senior, scores the first touchdown of the game. Minutes later, Jack Dwyer, junior, sets the score at 14-0 by pulling through with another touchdown. Yet another touchdown by Dwyer and an extra point from Jack Rigby, junior, brings the team closer to a victory. A final field goal by Rigby brings the game to a close. 

The victories didn’t end there. The team pulled through with a 39-7 win against Lake Forest as well. Just seconds into the game, Moses scores a 60+ yard touchdown run with Rigby bringing the score to 7-0 with his PAT. An interception by Anthony Mangano prompts Moses to send Dwyer to the endzone, scoring the second touchdown of the game. With five minutes left in the 1st quarter, Lake Forest scores a touchdown. By halftime, the Bears lead against Lake Forest, 25-7. By the end of the game, the team pulls out a win of 39-7 sending them back home to LZ to prep for their next home game vs. Stevenson.

The team’s rocky start to the season hasn’t seemed to begin to evening out just yet. After the two losses and one win in the Barrington Classic, the team has since then lost to Cary-Grove 1-3 in a non-conference game as well as a loss of 0-2 to Zion-Benton in a conference game. 

Looking on the brighter side, the team won 2-1 in an away conference game against Lake Forest. However, another win was taken from the Bears by Stevenson with a score of 3-2. The team can look forward to competing against Warren Township up in Gurnee.
