Huskies to take on 5th in state Tigers tonight

By Staff Writer Jennifer Fortman

Tonight, Sept. 27, NNHS will be taking on Wheaton Warrenville South in the 2013 homecoming football game. The Huskies (1-3, 0-2 DuPage Valley Conference) are in for a tough game against the undefeated Wheaton Warrenville South Tigers (4-0, 2-0 DVC).

“I think the game will be a battle for sure. Our defense has been doing a great job of working together and staying tough up front. We’re going to have to be more a little more aggressive than we were last year,” said NNHS junior quarterback Chris Gajcak.

Last season, the Huskies suffered a heart-breaker against the Tigers, losing 24-21.

The Huskies have a lot of confidence going into this game but against an undefeated team ranked 5th in the state, it will go down to the wire.

“Our offense will do a great job. The O-Line (offensive line) needs to communicate, know their assignment, and hit somebody, which is something that they are very capable of,” Gajack said. “It’ll be a good game for sure but by the time all four quarters are up, we will have given all we’ve got and we 100% will win on Friday night against Wheaton South and there’s no doubt in that.”

Kickoff is at 7:30.
