construct the outdoor bathroom/concession facility that benefits all students as well as the community.)

Titans Fall to Rolling Meadows

The Titans football team lost to Rolling Meadows Friday, 31-14, but the team showed progress and

played hard.

The Titans fell into a 14-0 hole but climbed back and made it a game against an elite state talent.

“I don’t know if that was happening last year and that was a good offense we were facing so those

are wins,” head coach Dave Schoenwetter told the Glenview Lantern. “I thought our team on

defense ran to ball terrifically, I thought they were there, they hit hard against a team that had good

athletes.”

The Titans defense started the game strong against the Mustangs forcing a three-and-out, but an

illegal substitution when Rolling Meadows prepared to punt extended the drive and the Mustangs

went on to score on a 46-yard touchdown pass.

Rolling Meadows added another score on a 69-yard pass with 3:57 left in the first quarter before the defense started to put together more three-and-outs and fought strong, limiting the Mustangs on

early drive to red zone. Connor Weisensel had an interception in the second quarter, which led to a

Titans score.

The Titans defense broke down when the Mustangs scored a late touchdown in the first half on a 27-

yard touchdown pass and a late 3-yard touchdown run that resulted from a muffed GBS punt.

“We kept them working for first downs or forced them into three-and-outs,” Schoenwetter said. “I

think that compared to last year, I see a big jump of what the defense was able to do.”

South’s offense failed to gain any momentum for much of the game — the Titans ended the game with six three-and-outs. Senior running back Andrew Gall provided a highlight with a 48-yard run in

the first quarter but the offense didn’t get any points off the run that ended in Rolling Meadows’ red

zone.

The Titans’ other score came on the first drive of the second half when the team drove down the field and Aidan Prikos scored on a 2-yard run. Gall finished the game with 65 rushing yards and a

touchdown.

Schoenwetter couldn’t get the passing game going with the constant pressure from the Mustangs’

line and secondary, limiting what his offense could do.

“I thought we didn’t string together good series and we need to find a way to be more consistent,”

Schoenwetter said.

The defense will take pride in what it limited from Rolling Meadows while the offense will go back to

the drawing board. South’s second game of the season will be a trip to Des Paines as the Titans take on Maine West on Sept. 6, and while the Titans might not be happy with the loss, they can see the

progress made in an opening-night loss.

“There’s a lot of room for improvement.” Gall said. “I think we played pretty well even though the

scoreboard didn’t say that.”

Girls Golf off to great start

Girls Tennis

losses to Stevenson (0-5) and Edwardsville (2-3), the Titans came back and ended the tournament

with two wins. They defeated Fremd (4-1) and Loyola (5-0).

On Saturday, JV hosted the Titan Quad. They ended the day in second place!

Boys Golf

The Varsity Boys Golf Team began their season at the Hersey Invite and placed third out of 13

teams. With some of the traditionally top teams in the area at this invite, Aaron Chong (73 - 3rd place), Mac McGurn (75 - 9th place), Sam Collett (77) and Junho Oh (78) led the way for the

Titans.

The boys then played well in the CSL South vs North Showcase, with Aaron Chong (73), Sam Collett

(75), Junho Oh (76) leading the way.

This past Friday, the boys then came in first place in a quad meet vs Highland Park, Maine South and Maine West. Once again setting the pace as the medalist was Aaron Chong (34), followed by

Sam Collett (38), Junho Oh (40) and Neil Patel (40).

The team closed out a busy start to the season Saturday with the 16 team Buffalo Grove Invitational. GBS placed 6th overall with Mac McGurn (75) placing 9th and Aaron Chong (77) and

Sam Collett (79) also helping to lead the Titans.

Good luck this season!
