North Suburban Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Friday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Aaron Stewart's Big Game Leads Warren Township over Mundelein
Starting off the list is Warren Township's Aaron Stewart, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Stewart rushed for 247 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 7.3 yards per carry. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 149 rushing yards dating back to last season.
Stewart must have Mundelein's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Stewart saw the Mustangs), he rushed for 168 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 9.3 yards per carry, and also picked up 35 receiving yards and a touchdown.

Schambow Came Up Big in Libertyville's 52-14 Victory
Libertyville picked up their sixth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Quinn Schambow. Schambow was unstoppable, throwing for 280 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 12.7 yards per attempt. He is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for four or more in the last six games he's played dating back to last season.
Schambow must have Waukegan's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Schambow threw for 287 yards and five touchdowns while picking up 13.7 yards per attempt the last time he and the Bulldogs duked it out back in September of 2023.

Libertyville Wins Sixth-Straight Thanks to Blaise Lavista
Blaise LaVista's big game helped extend Libertyville's winning streak to six on Friday. LaVista did his part (and then some), picking up 80 receiving yards and two touchdowns for the 'W'. He is on a roll when it comes to receiving touchdowns, as he's now hauled in two or more in the last six games he's played dating back to last season.
LaVista is probably looking forward to his next game, a road matchup against Zion-Benton on Friday. When LaVista last faced the Zee-Bees back in October of 2023, he picked up 167 receiving yards and three touchdowns.
