Nazareth Academy’s football team had no problem moving the ball up and down the field Friday night against Benet in Lisle in an East Suburban Catholic Conference matchup.
Unfortunately for the Roadrunners, despite running 81 plays for 342 yards, they were almost their own worst enemy, committing 11 penalties for 95 yards. Nazareth was able to overcome those miscues to top the host Redwings 24-7, though.
