Trevs', Ramblers' Huge Openers; Giants' Heartbreak — Episode 255

Author: The Record North Shore August 27, 2026 Duration: 45:06
The optimism proved accurate for New Trier and Loyola Academy football, as both teams won their openers in dominant fashion. It was a big week for local running backs as New Trier's Throy Nightingale Jr. debuted in style; Loyola's two backs put up numbers; and Highland Park's John Boman went off in a tough-luck loss. We talk road tests for the Trevians and Ramblers in Week 2, and a Highland Park home opener. Plus, we begin talking the other fall sports (soccer, volleyball, etc.)
