Lightweight | Hooge
Bills win on the road!
Lightweight= 14 vs Kenosha= 0
The Lightweight boys made the hour trip to Kenosha to take on a very tough team. The offense set the tone from the opening drive with another long touchdown pass from Federman to Goldman to take an early 8-0 lead.
The defense then came on to to continue the relentless attack. Ethan Aghakhan made a text book hard hit on the open play to set the tone for defense all day. Triple Lindy (Ryan Lemberg) was shot out of a cannon all day nearly taking the hand off from the QB more than once. The defense did not allow the Ramblers to get started throughout the game and continued the attack till the final whistle.
The offense was under attack by a tough Rambler defense that forced 4 turnovers. The boys dug deep and kept fighting. The beef up front (Factor, Cervantas, Diaz, Gleyser, Lemberg Aghakhan, Youkhanna, and Latulippe) worked hard to keep the Ramblers off our running backs. The constant pressure on these guys made them work hard all game. The were rewarded with another long TD run to take a commanding lead.
it was a hard hitting game that was a knock down fight! Good teams overcome tough games and this one was certainly a tough game. We are very proud of the team and the fight they have.
Next week we welcome North shore to Bills nation. We have work to do to be ready for another victory.
Middleweight Gold | Sibo
Bills win on the road!
Middleweight Gold= 22 vs Kenosha=6
Week 5 and Sibo’s Middle Gold team traveled over the border to Kenosha and grinded out a 22-6 win. In a tough physical game the boys plugged away all day and would not be denied. In the win the boys showed a lot of character. Week 4 highlights were:
• Donovan Robinson started the scoring on an inside run of 4 yards
• Jack McGrath grinded all day up the middle gaining yards.
• Dro DeLeon on the counter goes 40 yards for the TD
• With no time left in the 2nd Qtr., Fawcett hits Robinson on the swing pass who jukes and plows his way into the end zone. It was a Sports Center quality highlight.
• Big shout out to the O Line of Nelson, Branas, Osborne, Abuaita and Capstick. They controlled the line, controlled the game and helped bring home the win.
• Defense bent but did not break. Tyler Baker with the nice interception and Fatman Thorndyke & Paulauskas both with fumble recoveries. Love those multiple turnover games!!
Middleweight Black | Schumi
Bills lose on the road.
Middleweight Black= 7 vs Antioch= 12
The boys headed down to Antioch with a chip on their shoulder, ready to try and turn this thing around. All game the Defense looked great! All 11 players, played together as one. They were flying around, locating the football and making group tackles. This game was the best that our defense has played all year long. Big 4th down stops gave our Offense another shot or two to move the chains a bit! It was a battle out on that field and unfortunately we fell a tad short. Offensively we were moving the ball well, that starts with the O-Line. Shoutout to the entire offensive line from end to end they looked great. The backs played well, found their holes, followed their blockers and ran like mad men!
We are heading into this week with some fire in our eyes, ready to come back home, get a win and have some fun out there!
Defensive MVP: Ramiz Izzatov
Offensive MVP: Andrew Langerman

Featherweight | Delevitt
Bills lose on the road.
Featherweight= 0 vs Kenosha= 13
It was a tough morning up in cheese-land, against an experienced Kenosha team, as the BG Bills Feather Big 10 Team ended up on the losing end of the 13-0 final score. Aidan Albrecht hit Ilan Guzman on a long pass over the middle. Brody Delevitt with three catches, and chunks of yards after the catch. Braden Bilotta got himself involved in multiple tackles. Blake Strauss got into the Kenosha backfield and pulled down the ball carrier for a loss. Matthew Reptak burst through the line into the Kenosha backfield. Miles Tyer got the start at outside linebacker, and his aggressiveness and overall great play, got him in on tackle after tackle. Ilan Guzman continued his beast mode season, running hard and catching the football on the offensive side of the ball, and leading the team in tackles on defense. The BG Bills Feather Big 10 team knows there is still lots of football to be played this season, and they will be ready to defend their home field when North Shore comes to town this Sunday.
Bantam | Duff
Bills lose on the road.
Bantam= 0 vs Kenosha=6
The bantam offense marched down the field at will. Great work by Jackson Carrigan, Jake Blair, and the rest of the offensive line, opening up holes for hard runs by Dylan Nelson, Bowie Richmond, and Matthew Ravenscraft, got us into the Red Zone twice. Unfortunately, mental mistakes prevented us from closing the deal.
The Bills Defense was immense! The game was scoreless for 3 and a half quarters. Boundy and Ravenscraft forced fumbles in the backfield, and the latter even recovered it! Jake Blair also made a great tackle for a loss in the Ramblers' backfield. The D-Line also managed to get a huge 3-and-out, giving us the ball back, at the Kenosha 25!
Just a couple of mental mistakes, by the defense, in the bottom half of the 4th quarter, allowed Kenosha to sneak one into the end zone, and steal away a heart-breaker.
The Bills faced an undefeated team, with a large bantam program. Given another chance, our boys would beat them convincingly. The Bantam Bills are a different team than they were a month ago. This coach feels that good things are in store our team!
