Lincoln Way West fell to Naperville North for their third straight lost after winning their first three games in a row to start the season.

With a final score of 38-33, Lincoln Way fought a hard battle against The Huskies all the way down into the fourth quarter.

In the first quarter, Lincoln Way went up 10-7 and in the second quarter extended their lead to a 20-17 advantage. 

Naperville North came out in the second half, firing on all cylinders, scoring 14 in the third quarter to the Warriors six. 

The Huskies scored a touchdown again in the fourth to make it almost out of reach as the score sat at 38-26. 

LW running back Jahan Abubakar ran the ball from the 6-yard line into the end-zone as time expired to give the final score of 38-33.

Lincoln Way West quarterback Chase Hetfleisch had a decent game despite throwing three interceptions. Hetfleisch completed 17 of his 36 pass attempts for a total of just under 200 yards and a touchdown.

Abubakar had another great game on the ground, carrying the ball 24 times for 128 yards and two touchdowns.
