St. Charles East and Bartlett held up their ends of the bargain, but the other nine teams in the Upstate Eight Conference all lost Friday night.
Here's a look at how the UEC stacked up during Week 1 against two neighboring conferences, the DuPage Valley Conference and against the Fox Valley Conference.
UEC VS. DVC
(1-3)
Bartlett 28, Glenbard North 21
Naperville North 41, Neuqua Valley 19
Naperville Central 24, Waubonsie Valley 14
West Aurora 46, East Aurora 0
UEC VS. FVC
(0-3)
Cary-Grove 24, St. Charles North 21
McHenry 18, Larkin 7
Crystal Lake Central 32, Streamwood 6
It looks like the DVC and FVC are still king in the western and northwestern suburbs.
A 2-9 showing isn't exactly the way to build up a positive reputation going forward, but the UEC will try to change its fortunes next week when the battle of the conferences continues.
Here's a look at next week's lineup.
UEC vs. DVC
West Aurora at Elgin
Lake Park at Naperville Central
UEC vs. FVC
Waubonsie Valley at Prairie Ridge
Larkin at Jacobs
St. Charles North at McHenry
Dundee-Crown at Streamwood
