Banks ran for 195 yards and two touchdowns and of that number, 117 was accomplished in the first-half.

No Public League team has won a state title, but Simeon has shown that they are a serious contender over the first three weeks.

Travis Starks and Jahwon Akui helped the Mustangs dominate time of possession. Starks finished with 133 rushing yards and a score while Akui had a workmanlike 109 rushing yards on 25 carries with a touchdown.

Homewood-Flossmoor 29, Sandburg 24

While Norman was chewing his way down the field, the game was clinched by the Vikings' defense, which stopped the Eagles on downs twice in their own territory in the game's final four minutes. The first of the two Sandburg drives sputtered at the Homewood-Flossmoor 8-yard line.
