Ianucilli Made His Presence Known in Churubusco's 42-18 Loss
Starting off the list is Churubusco's Angelo Ianucilli, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Ianucilli rushed for 104 yards and two touchdowns. He has become a key player for Churubusco: the team is 3-1 when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns, but 1-4 otherwise.
Fairfield had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Ianucilli it was a similar story. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Ianucilli saw the Falcons), he rushed for 140 yards while picking up 8.8 yards per carry.

While Eastside might've come up empty on Friday, Kaison Hewitt wasn't going down without a fight. Angola had no answer to Hewitt as he rushed for 71 yards and a touchdown.
With the loss, Eastside broke their three-game winning streak and moved their record to 4-5. Hewitt and Eastside will be staying on the road on Friday to face off against Whitko at 7:00 p.m.
