Won our fourth game in a row Friday night to make the playoffs. Here are some highlights from the game.

[News-Sun Sports @LCNewsSunSport]

Lex Sarantos has 110 tackles. But his most important stop ends Vernon Hills’ slide.
“He never wavered.”
Are the playoffs next?

Thank you @sixstarfootball for the write-up. I really appreciate it.

[Lex Sarantos @LexSarantos]

Huge win Friday night 14-7 to keep our playoff hopes alive! I’m proud of our team the way we fought with only 22 guys suited up and to end the game with a goal line stand!

Finished the night with 16 tackles (12 solo).
