Week 4 football roundup for DuPage County and Fox

It was a wild and controversial finish in West Chicago Friday as Wheaton Academy lost to Hope Academy 30-29.

It was already a crazy fourth quarter as Hope Academy (3-1, 1-1) scored and converted a two-point conversion to take a 30-23 lead with under a minute to play. It was the fourth lead change of the quarter.

Undaunted, Wheaton Academy rallied. The Warriors marched 80 yards in 16 seconds to close to 30-29 as time expired as Brett Kasper connected with Ben Dehaan on a 40-yard touchdown to make it 30-29. Unfortunately, the Warriors were then whistled for an excessive celebration penalty as two Wheaton players had their helmets off.

The officials assessed two 15-yard penalties on the Warriors, making the extra point a 50-yard attempt. Ethan Head, who had previously converted three field goals of 26,24 and 32 yards, saw his attempt fall three yards short.
