Johnsburg (5-3, 3-2) at Grayslake North (3-5, 1-4)

When: 7:15 p.m. today

Last week: Johnsburg def. Prairie Ridge, 24-21; Grayslake North lost to Grayslake Central, 28-0.

Skinny: It's another huge game for Johnsburg, which last week knocked Prairie Ridge out of contention for the Fox Valley Fox Division championship. The win made Johnsburg playoff-eligible, but with 32 playoff points (total wins by opponents) entering the weekend, the Skyhawks would probably be on the bubble as far as earning an at-large berth with 5 wins. So, in short, they need to win tonight. Led by Illinois-bound wide receiver/linebacker C.J. Fiedorowicz (31 receptions, 21.5 yards per catch, 9 TDs) and senior running back Justin Peete (461 rushing yards, 11 TDs), Johnsburg will face a Grayslake North team whose playoff hopes ended with a shutout loss to its crosstown rival last week. The Knights have scored only 100 points, 41 coming in a Week-4 win over Dundee-Crown.
