Games to watch for this week along with some notes on the local teams.
As we past the Labor Day holiday, here is what is going on with our local teams. Strong Showing: On Saturday, the Jacobs volleyball team showed that there is some potential for this season, finishing fourth at its own invitational in Algonquin.

Cary is going to be a roadblock for a lot of teams in the Fox Valley Conference this season but getting any chance to see them additional times may allow a chance for victory later in the year. On the Field: Saturday’s weather didn’t allow things to get too involved but Huntley’s boys’ soccer team notched a 2-2 tie against Marian Central at the Wauconda Tournament …
