Bartlett at Glenbard North

When: 7 p.m. Friday.

Last matchup: Glenbard North won, 17-0, last season.

About the Hawks: Their goal is simple — “We want to compete for the conference championship and earn a spot in the playoffs,” said Bartlett coach Milan Vuckovich, who has guided the team to 3 straight 4-5 seasons. The Hawks return plenty of talent, led by senior QB Vince Yario, senior OT/DT Daniel Thorner, senior RB/LB Isaac Harris, senior LB/FB Daniel Jasso, and senior LB/TE Ethan Rataczyk. Olivier Chrapek will handle the kicking and punting duties.
