The Cats will play Fenwick on Saturday.

This past Saturday, LHS football defeated Addison Trail 17-7 in a second round playoff matchup.

Offensively, the Cats were led by junior Riley Lees, who finished with 214 yards and two touchdowns on the ground. Lees, aggravating his knee in the first half, ran for a 60 yard touchdown on the first play from scrimmage in the second half.

Defensively, senior Jordan McInerney contributed five sacks to help keep Addison Trail to only seven points for the whole game.

The team will go on the road to play 15-seeded Fenwick (7-4).
