When 7:30 p.m. today

Last week: Niles North lost to Deerfield 26-13; Maine West lost to Maine East 47-31

Outlook Maine West comes in off one of its best offensive performances in years with 513 total yards and 30 first downs last week. The duo of Calvin Williams and Charlie Vana combined for 309 yards rushing and Ron Gajewski threw for 204 yards with a pair of TDs to Mike Cardamone. But two TDs given up the Warriors came off special teams - a kickoff return and blocked field goal return. Niles North had hoped this was the season to end a 17-year playoff drought but comes in on a four-game losing streak to teams that appear bound for the postseason.
