Lake Park took the trifecta.

Quarterback Larry Nawrot returned after a week resting a foot injury and threw touchdown passes of 60 and 24 yards to Artie Monaco.

Those were the big blows that earned Lake Park a 20-15 win on Friday over South Elgin in Roselle. With it Lake Park (6-1, 5-0) gained its first playoff slot since 2006 and kept pace with St. Charles East for the Upstate Eight Conference lead.

"I haven't been 100 percent for awhile," said Nawrot, a left-handed senior. "I've been like 60, 77 percent. I'm 85 now, it feels good. My foot feels real good and I'm starting to be able to do everything."

Nawrot's joy was opposite the mood of South Elgin (5-2, 2-2). Many of the Storm players attended a wake before the game Friday for the older brother of junior linebacker Justin Wright. Matt Wright, a 2008 South Elgin graduate, died Monday after a two-year battle with cancer.  http://football.dailyherald.com/story/?id=328036
