Daily Herald Staff Report

Aurora Central (2-6, 2-4) at IC (2-6, 1-5)

Suburban Catholic Conference

Game time: 1 p.m., Saturday.

Last year: Immaculate Conception 28, Aurora Central 6.

Last week: Aurora Central 27, Marmion 21; St. Francis 36, IC 26.

Outlook: IC coach Bill Schmidt warned of ACC's 20 points against Montini, which has 5 shutouts. IC can't allow Chargers quarterback Mike Adams to make big plays and convert third downs to receivers Mark Adams (his brother) and Kyle Edwards, which they did to Marmion. IC's best bet is the offensive ball control (no turnovers!) and running game displayed much of last week when tight end Alex Jacobo, linemen Matt Purdom, Josh Fenton, Marco Medina, Charlie Vail and Josh Nottingham led backs Jon Ellis and Nick DiBrito to 195 and 118 yards, respectively. The prep finale for 13 seniors like three-year starter Ellis, defensive tackle Julius Cheng, linebackers Bob Perrone and Chris Mulligan, cornerback Brendan Ryan.
