Here is a recap of tonight’s(9/25) game courtesy of WGIL’s Brad Bennewitz:

“Galesburg Football team had some fun at the expense of the United Township Panthers at Van Dyke field tonight(9/25) routing UT 49-0 and the Silver Streaks really didn’t even have that great of a night offensively. They had two big defensive touchdowns to really open up the game. Tyree Mitchell had a 60yd interception return for a touchdown that was the Streaks 2nd score of the night and later in the game Jason Kelly Stripped the ball out of the UT Panthers’ quarterback’s hands and ran it back 92yds, the Streaks second defensive touchdown of the night and four turnovers forced against the Panthers.

“There was also a 49yd touchdown run by DeAndre Moren. Jacob Ross had a big touchdown, a 67yd pass to Nick Myler. So it was a big play night, but as big for the defense as much as anything as the Silver Streaks got their first shutout against an opponent since the opening game of the 2010 season when they defeated Chicago Academy. Galesburg’s now 3-2 on the season, more importantly 2-0 in the Western Big 6 Conference as they head up to Alleman next week for the Pioneers Homecoming at Augustana College. Galesburg sophomores also made a victory to complete the sweep on the night 27-12 over the UT sophomores.”

As Brad stated above, the boys will be playing again next Friday at Augustana College against the Alleman Pioneers. That game is set just a bit later than more recent ones with a pre-game time of 7:25 and kick-off looking to start at 7:40. You can catch all of the action on 93.7FM and 1400Am WGIL, WGIL.com or the TuneIn app with live play by play from Brad Bennewitz and Jim Lee.
