BOLINGBROOK, IL - The Bolingbrook Raiders football team ended its season on Friday night with a 28-14 home defeat to the Warren Blue Devils in a first-round playoff game of Class 8A football. Bolingbrook was playing Friday's playoff contest without its regular starting quarterback, Anthony Vespo, who was lost to an injury during the previous week's game. Raiders freshman No. 17 Samuel Jackson tried to fill the void at quarterback. There were some bright spots for Bolingbrook. Junior RB Quentin Pringle rushed for two TDs including his second score early into the fourth quarter to close the score to 21-14. Warren got another touchdown to seal the win. Final score 28-14. Bolingbrook finished the year 7-3.
