Scouting Wheaton North at Glenbard North

Wheaton North (3-0, 1-0) at Glenbard North (3-0, 1-0)

DuPage Valley Conference

Game time: 7:30 p.m. today.

Last year: Glenbard North 32, Wheaton North 0.

Last week: Wheaton North 50, West Chicago 7; Glenbard North 10, Naperville North 3.

Outlook: Wheaton North has not beaten the Panthers since 2002, but the Falcons may have their best team since winning the DVC title that year. They boast a potent offense led by quarterback Reece Butler, who has been amazing so far while completing 81 percent of his passes for 787 yards, 9 TDs and no interceptions. The Panthers' stingy defense, led last week by defensive back Sean Fogarty and lineman Joe Williams, is a little healthier. Offensively, they return running back Evin Natick, who missed last week's game. Run stoppers Clemonte Dossie, Montrell Williams and John Murphy anchor Wheaton North's stout defensive line.

Next week: West Aurora at Wheaton North; Glenbard North at West Chicago.
