North Suburban Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Thursday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Quinn Schambow Goes Supernova in Libertyville Win
Quinn Schambow's big game helped extend Libertyville's winning streak to seven on Thursday. Nobody could stop Schambow as he threw for 232 yards and five touchdowns on only 16 passes. He is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for four or more in the last seven games he's played dating back to last season.
Schambow might have his next game, a home matchup with Lake Forest, circled on his calendar. When Schambow last faced the Scouts back in September of 2023, he threw for 204 yards and three touchdowns, and also rushed for 32 yards and a touchdown.

Big Game from Stewart As Warren Township Fell 16-7
Aaron Stewart's rushing tear continued on Thursday as he dropped his fourth-straight game with 113+ rushing yards dating back to last season. He rushed for 113 yards and a touchdown, and also picked up 30 receiving yards. He was no stranger to the big play, taking off on a dash that went for 60 yards.
Stewart must have Stevenson's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. When Stewart last faced the Patriots back in September of 2023, he rushed for 166 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 7.2 yards per carry.
Gamescore: 25.05
While Jake Junia delivered a dominant performance on Thursday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Mundelein. Junia turned in nothing short of a gem, making 14 total tackles (1.0 for loss).
Mundelein is on a four-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 3-4. Junia and Mundelein will venture away from home to challenge Waukegan at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.

A Season-Best Effort from Maddux Hermestroff Leads Mundelein over Lake Zurich
Mundelein came up short on Thursday despite Maddux Hermestroff delivering his best game to date. Hermestroff made nine total tackles.
For the season, Hermestroff has averaged 5.7 total tackles per game and for the season has 3 interceptions. It gets even more impressive: after seven games last season, he was only averaging 14.43 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 22.57 rushing yards.

Libertyville Wins Seventh-Straight Thanks to Blaise Lavista
Libertyville picked up their seventh consecutive win on Thursday thanks in part to Blaise Lavista. Nobody could stop Lavista as he picked up 67 receiving yards and two touchdowns. He is on a roll when it comes to receiving touchdowns, as he's now hauled in two or more in the last seven games he's played dating back to last season.
Zion-Benton's probably not too fond of Lavista given he always seems to get the better of them. Lavista picked up 167 receiving yards and three touchdowns the last time he and the Zee-Bees duked it out back in October of 2023.
