After soaring to 54 points the game before, Lakes was a bit more limited in their contest on Wednesday. They took a 30-13 bruising from the Libertyville Wildcats. The Eagles were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Wildcats apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in August of 2024.
When it comes to explaining why Lakes lost, don't look at Madeline Loar. Despite the final result, she rushed for 77 yards and one touchdown on only eight carries, and also threw for 144 yards and one TD.
Lakes' defeat dropped their record down to 1-1.
