Lightweight | Hooge
Bills win on the road!
Lightweight= 26 vs Northside= 6
The squad made the Sunday afternoon trip down to Lane stadium to face a very tough North Side team. It was a tough game and neither team was willing to give in. After a 3 and out by North Side it took one play for Zach Goldman to take it all the way to the house with a long TD run. North Side tighten up on our second possession causing a turn over on a fumble. Our DF was resilient all day not allowing the a very good North side team to get their offense going. Alex Wunsch and Carson Oloman played very well at DF end as they were tested all game. The DF line showed their strength pushing back the North Side O line all day making tackles in the back field. Charlie Skolnik had a great game at linebacker making several jarring hits to stop North Side ball carriers in their tracks.
We were able to run the ball at will in the first half with some great blocking by the O line and hard running by all the running backs. The second half was a dog fight North side was relentless attacking the ball when we were on offense. Brett Schwartz helped grind the ball up the middle getting some real tough yards to keep the O rolling. We are very proud of the team how they fought kept the pressure on a North side team that just kept coming. North Side started to move the ball and keep their offense on the field with lengthy drives that tested the DF. Jake Youkhanna made a great open field tackle on a drive that saved a score to keep them stifled in the 3rd quarter. We are very happy to get out of this game with a well earned win. Great job boys! We now get ready for a much improved Barrington team since we saw them in a scrimmage a couple weeks ago. We have a lot of work to do as we were a somewhat exposed during the game and need to tighten up a few things. We cannot say anything more about how hard these boys fight and look forward to week 3!
Middleweight Gold | Sibo
Bills win on the road!
Middleweight Gold= 28 vs Grant=0
Week 2 the Middles were away at Grant and saw the team deliver a 28-0 victory. The boys ran through the mud and played with great energy. Week 2 highlights were:
• Donovan Robinson racking up 2 more TD’s to bring his season total to 5
• Big Ben Fawcett to Griff Suren again for the TD. Think there something brewing here!
• Jack McGrath gets another TD • Deividas “Dave” Paulauskas goes 2 for 4 on Extra Points. Great job, we are getting better at this each week!!
• Defense with shutout #2 of the year. Coach Gerry’s D is ferocious
• O Line of Paulauskas, Abuaita, Osborne, Branas and Nelson controlling the game again. You dudes make the team go!
Middleweight Black | Schumi
Bills win on the road!
Middleweight Black= 27 vs Lake Zurich= 0
Bills Middle Pac came into week two with some fire in their eyes. Right out of the gates, the Bills took control and ran with it. It was a big day from the Offensive Line. They made it possible for our backs to score four Touchdowns, which also gave us the ability to control the game. Huge performance from the entire Defensive side of the ball, leaving the opponent scoreless throughout the whole game.
--- Jack Palzet ran like a mad man and ended with two of his own TD's
--- Brayden Wong hurdled and trucked his way for his first of the season
--- Isiah Hall cut up and found the end zone for his first of the season as well
--- Jonah Belden came up huge on the Defensive side with two interceptions
Bills- 27
LZ- 0
Offensive MVP: The Offensive Line
Defensive MVP: The entire Defense
Featherweight | Delevitt
Bills lose on the road.
Featherweight= 0 vs Grant= 6
Mama said there'd be days like this. The Buffalo Grove Bills Featherweight Big 10 team, couldn't overcome a muddy field, and a physical Grant team, in a hard fought 6-0 loss. Penalties and turnovers thwarted most of the Bills offensive drives. The defense ruled the day. The defense pitched their second consecutive shutout, and still haven't given up any points on the season. Ilan Guzman, covered in mud, was all over the field making tackles. Matthew Reptak, Dylan Graves, Anthony White, Hami Mikaere, Braden Bilotta, and Evan Polen, battled hard all day against a physical Grant offensive line. Miles Tyer and Brayden Sher locked down the Grant receivers. This game in no way defines this team, and better days lie ahead, as the Bills Featherweight Big 10 team will be anxious to get back on the field, and get back on the winning track against Barrington.
Bantam | Duff
Bills lose on the road.
Bantam= 0 vs Grant=20
Our boys showed a lot of growth this week. Improved play by the defensive line (Jackson Carrigan, Nana Maekare, Josh Koepke, and Jake Blair) kept this game out of courtesy. Jake nearly had 2 sacks, but still made tackles in the backfield. Dylan Nelson also made a huge tackle for a giant loss!
Grant's blitz was a relentless assault against our offense, until Jackson Carrigan stepped up and put the smack down on the blitzers. Our offensive line is still finding it's footing, but Nana Maekare gets MIP for the O-line this week.
Once again, the team was faced with a much larger team, that put up a huge fight, and didn't lose heart. They gave it their all, right through the last play. Quit is just not in this team's vocabulary! The entire coaching staff is very proud of the character shown by this team!
