Outlook Dundee-Crown hopes to end a 4-game losing skid with a road victory against the Warriors, who have won 2 of their last 3 games to rebound from an 0-2 start. Last week McHenry jumped to a 21-0 lead against Huntley, which it outgained 198 yards to 168. "It's a very typical McHenry team," D-C coach Mike Davis said. "They get after you and try to bury you. Hopefully, we can hang with them early and give them a game. We were outmanned against South, but they are just so darned good." The Dundee-Crown defense was overrun by powerful CL South, which rushed for 329 yards on the way to 433 total yards. The Chargers will try to contain McHenry quarterback Thomas Rose, who threw for 1 touchdown and ran for another last week. Dundee-Crown enters this game with injury issues at some key positions, so some backups will be called on to step up.
