Freedom new No. 1 atop area rankings; plus top players

The Irish leave no question on which team is the best in the area with a 49-29 victory over previous No. 1 Little Chute. Freedom played without starting running back Axzil Eggert and didn't miss a beat. Quarterback Owen Henkel with more than 300 yards passing with four touchdowns. This is a special team and one that may get to Camp Randall Stadium in November.
