Oswego 28, Plainfield North 21: Jack Kwiatkowski caught three touchdown passes and blocked a punt. And Elliot McGaughy's pass defense in the final seconds boosted the Panthers in the opening round of the Class 7A playoffs Friday night.
Breaking It Down: One of the goals Oswego football coach Brian Cooney set for the Panthers’ defense was to show improvement in the red zone. Now, Cooney can check that item off his to-do list. Oswego twice stopped Plainfield North from scoring after the Tigers moved to first-and-goal inside the 10 in the second half of a 28-21 victory in the opening round of the Class 7A playoffs on Friday night at Ken Pickerall Stadium in Oswego. Included was a dramatic goal-line stand in the final 45 seconds that enabled the Panthers (9-1) to notch their eighth straight victory.

OHS assistant moves up. OEHS brings in new blood.
Oswego's two high schools went from having no varsity head football coaches to both positions filled late Monday night. The District 308 board voted to approve the hiring of assistant coach Brian Cooney as the new head coach for Oswego High School. Tyson LeBlanc, the former head coach of Curie Metro High School in Chicago, will take over the Oswego East High School program. Cooney, an OHS graduate, had been an assistant coach for 14 years and is a dean at the school. He takes over for Dave Keely, who retired at the end of the Panthers 8-3 season that took them to the second round of the IHSA playoffs. LeBlanc takes over for Mark Green, who stepped down as head coach Oct. 31. Under Green's leadership, the Wolves won 14 games in seven …
