The Sycamore High School football team welcomed nonconference foe Mahomet-Seymour Friday night.

Kaneland can reach 3-0 but will have to get past DeKalb to do so, Sycamore looks to bounce back from a loss, G-K looks to avoid 0-3 and Hiawatha can surpass last year's win total with a victory. It's our preview capsules and picks.

With two weeks of the IHSA football season in the books, here is a look at one surprise for each Daily Chronicle area football team.

We take a look back at Week 2 action, including DeKalb's win at Phillips, Sycamore's overtime loss in Moline, and Carter Grabowski's huge game for Kaneland in a win.

A two-point conversion attempt for the win in overtime came up just short for Sycamore, Hiawatha explodes for 50 in improving to 2-0 and Genoa-Kingston falls at home to Stillman Valley despite a scoop-and-score sack for Cody Cravatta.
