🔴St. Rita (6-3) authored 3 of the most exciting wins by any CCL team this season – game-winning passes from John Fennell to Vinny Stubitsch in the final minute against both Glenbard West and Nazareth, and a near-impossible comeback against Montini in Week 6. All came on the road. Lindenwood commit Brandon Johnson Jr. is a true three-down back, but the way Doniven Campbell has been running, the Mustangs can lean on both. With a win, St. Rita would likely play at Downers Grove North in a highly anticipated second round battle. The Mustangs have already made four deep playoff runs this decade. They were the 7A runners-up in 2021 and 2025, and they made the semifinals in 2022 and 2024. 🏈Scoring averages: Offense 28.3 / Defense 27.1 👀One player to watch: 6’6”/255 senior Ohimai Ozolua is a disruptive defensive end who is a tough matchup for any tackle to handle 🟠Behind Enemy Lines: Buffalo Grove The Bison (7-3) just picked up their first playoff win since 2021, a 28-27 nail-biter over Andrew. They stopped a two-point conversion attempt at the end of the game to seal the victory. This will be another matchup of two run-heavy offenses. 🗓️Schedule: Solid - 40 opponents’ wins, 2 ranked teams 🏈Scoring averages: Offense 28.3 / Defense 22.3 🏆Best regular season win: Week 1 at Hoffman Estates, 21-14 👀One player to watch: Senior RB/LB Matthew Kaput is Buffalo Grove’s all-time leader in touchdowns and rushing yards @StRitaFootball @StRitaAthletics @Johnfennell03 @BrandonJ2027 @vinny_stubitsch @ohimai21 @Donivencamp27 @kkeyser27 @TimmySwans73830 @MitchStreet6215 @BPrice2209 @Jackdonk05 @gsinkovich38 @ConniesPizza
