First road game of the season for @QuadCityStorm is this evening at @evvthunderbolts
Good afternoon from Geneseo where @IHSA_IL state football Class 4A playoff action is happening on Bob Reade Field. @greenmachinefb hosts North Chicago. Maple Leafs win coin toss and defer; will kick off to Warhawks
In the midst of second possession of 3Q with the running clock rule, the quarter ends with North Chicago having ball and @greenmachinefb still leading 42-0. Leafs have all subs on the field in second half
Final from Geneseo's Bob Reade Field: @greenmachinefb wins IHSA Class 4A opening-round game 42-14 over North Chicago. Will play at No. 8 seed Lombard Montini next week in first round-action
College football final from Chicago: @AugieILfootball beats @npuchicago 35-12. Sounded as if it was a solid effort for Steve Bell's crew and nice to get QB Jimmy Makuh back in action
It was a crazy game at Browning Field on Friday with @Moline_Football scoring on two wild plays in the final five-plus minutes to beat Benet Academy, 42-38 in 7A playoff opener. Sometimes you never know what will happen and that was the “miracle in Moline.”
