The Galesburg Silver Streaks football team went on the road to Geneseo for their 2nd Western Big 6 Conference game of the season. The Maple Leafs engineered a scoring drive in the 4th quarter that put them on top with just over a minute to go in the game and they went on to win, 28 - 21. The Streaks had a number of opportunities in the 2nd half to get the points that they needed, but it was Geneseo that prevailed and got their first conference win of the season.

Jamar Range had an incredible game with 36 carries for the Silver Streaks for a total of 349 yards and 3 touchdowns.

The Dave's Autobody Crunch Time Player of the Game was Streaks' offensive center, Asher Whitcomb. He was out last week due to an injury, and his return for tonight's game made a huge difference in the rhythm of the offense.

Due to a referee shortage, next week's game at Van Dyke Field has been moved to Thursday (10/3) night for the Streaks' conference game with the Quincy Blue Devils.

In their first Western Big 6 Conference game of the season, the Galesburg Silver Streaks football team suffered a loss at home to the Sterling Golden Warriors, 40-3. That ends a 3-game homestand for the Streaks, who will be on the road at Geneseo next week.

The Dave's Autobody Crunch Time Player of the Game was Caden Ashby for his fantastic athletic defensive play in the corner of the end zone making an interception.

It's once again flu season, and the Knox County Health Department has the vaccine available. But, did you know when you get a flu shot, it's not for the type of flu that results in gastrointestinal problems?

Wil Hayes and Tammy Nelson from the Health Department talk about that, and how a number of flu vaccine clinics will be held starting Thursday, with Will Stevenson on Galesburg's Morning News.
