Glenbard South has announced the inaugural class of its new athletic hall of fame.

Here’s a look at the football matchups in DuPage County for the quarterfinal round, including IC Catholic Prep hosting Princeton and Wheaton North traveling to Willowbrook in Class 7A, among others.

Jalen McGee’s return from an ankle injury has only made Neuqua Valley’s 10-1 football team even more dangerous.

A 71-yard run by Nathaniel Altepeter on the first play of the game gave the Sycamore football team all the points it needed in a 34-0 win over No. 1 seed Glenbard South on Saturday in the second round of the Class 5A playoffs.

Marist players responded in the second half, with the defense posting a shutout and the offense more than doubling its points total to help take down South Elgin 30-7 and move the Redhawks to the quarterfinals. “It’s a huge win for us and the program,” senior Jimmy Rolder said. “Just all of our hard work coming to use and putting it on the field. There is no better feeling.”

Here’s a look at the second round of playoffs for DuPage County, including Naperville Central trying to upset Loyola and Glenbard North hoping to solve Warren’s elite defense, among others.

Here’s a look at some of the top storylines going into the second round of the playoffs, including an impressive showing by Naperville Central’s defense and special teams last week, and Rocco Luczak coming up big for Willowbrook’s special teams, among others.

The backfield tandem of Luke Beedle and Walker Owens led Wheaton North to a 42-0 victory over Larkin in the opening round of the Class 7A playoffs. The Falcons, seeded fourth in 7A, will now host 13th-seeded Hoffman Estates (8-2) next week. Beedle and Owens accounted for most the Falcons’ 299 rushing yards and scored all six of the team’s touchdowns. Beedle gained 145 yards on 14 carries while Owens ran 13 times for 116 yards.

Playing in blustery, wet conditions throughout the game, Edwardsville (5-5) fell behind 21-0 at halftime and would never recover during their 24-13 loss to the South Elgin Storm in the opening round of the Class 8A playoffs in South Elgin. After a scoreless first quarter, the 2nd-seeded Storm (10-0) tallied 3 touchdowns during an 8 ½-minute span in the second quarter.

Neuqua Valley running back Jaden McGee knew there was rain in the forecast and he knew that meant the Wildcats coaches might just feed him the ball a little more than usual. He was right, and he took advantage of the opportunities he got against Bartlett in the Class 8A playoff opener in Naperville. McGee gained 109 yards and 2 touchdowns — all in the first half — as the 9-1 Wildcats pounded the visiting Hawks 60-7 to move onto the second round.
