Fantasy football is a popular trend for OH students as the NFL season begins, and OH students come together as a community to participate in this activity.
The digital era of the game started in the 1990’s, and now has over 60 million people playing yearly.
It's a game where students draft NFL players as a group and throughout the season, students receive points on how the player performed in their NFL game.
On Sep. 16, the OH Varsity Girls Flag Football team beat Yorkville 19-6.
This was the newest chapter with their rivalry with YHS, which started 0-41 in their regional game, and their victory exemplified the training and collaboration that the team has been working on since the start of the season.
“We play really well, it's a lot of communication while playing with other teammates,” OH senior and player Amiah Roberts said.
During the game, the team got to show the skills and improvement that they’ve made since playing Yorkville last year.
“I’m very excited," said senior Captain Thalia Aburto. "Knowing that this is my senior season makes every game and every moment with my teammates feel even more meaningful.” Aburto, a 2026 Chicago Bears High School All-Star, has two total points and one safety this season according to MaxPreps.
