The Galesburg High School football team wrapped up the 2024 season with a road trip to East Moline to take on the United Township Panthers. The stat that the Silver Streaks ended the game with negative rushing yards tells the struggles that they had getting anything going on the ground against the UT defense. Caden Riley threw for 131 yards in the game, including 2 touchdown passes. But Galesburg fell to United Township, 40 - 14. The Silver Streaks end the season 1 - 8 and winless in the Western Big 6 conference.
The Dave's Autobody Crunch Time Player of the Game was punter Anthony Makwala. Punting is a part of the offense that you don't want to have to use, but when you do, it can be an effect weapon. Anthony had punts in the game that netted 40, 48, and 50 yards. Some of them were from the goal line and the back of the end zone but he was able to flip the field with no return.
