Scouting Glenbard North at WW South

Glenbard North (7-0, 5-0) at Wheaton Warrenville South (7-0, 5-0)

DuPage Valley Conference

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

Last week: Glenbard North 34, West Aurora 21; WW South 55, West Chicago 0.

Last year: WW South 35, Glenbard North 7.

Outlook: To beat WW South for the first time since 2003, the Panthers must mount lengthy drives with Evin Natick and Phil Jackson, who have combined for 1,296 rushing yards and 18 touchdowns. Defensively, the Panthers get a boost in the secondary by the return from injury of Tremel Smith and Aaron Smith. Promoted sophomore safety Brian Murphy also has played well. WW South quarterback Reilly O'Toole has been amazing while completing 75 percent of his passes for 1,554 yards, 23 touchdowns and 1 interception. Despite injuries, lineman Will Davis, linebacker Mike Monterrubio and safety Caleb Bednarz have kept the Tigers' defense buzzing.

Next week: Naperville Central at Glenbard North; WW South at West Aurora.
