DOWNERS GROVE – Wheaton North played an inspired first half of defense Friday night at Downers Grove South. The best, however, was yet to come. The Falcons held Downers Grove South to just two possessions and 29 yards of offense in the third quarter as they built a 20-0 lead, and Wheaton North went on to win 23-7. 'We're coming together as a team,' said Falcons senior Matt Rambasek, a two-way lineman, after the game. 'I was a little gassed today because I didn't play both ways last year. I've kind of got to get used to how to stay energized.
