After defeating Lane Tech last week in the playoffs, Maine South High School's football team advanced and will face Conant High School Saturday, Nov. 3 at 1 p.m. at Maine South, 1111 S. Dee Road, Park Ridge.

Excitement is high, as Maine South has been the state champ in the Illinois High School Association's Class 8A three times in the past four seasons, according to espn.com. The Hawks made it to the final playoff game last year but lost to the Stevenson Patriots.
