ROCHELLE — The Rochelle Hub varsity football team has reached the quarterfinal round of the IHSA 4A Playoffs for the first time since the 2017 season. Unlike the team's last quarterfinal appearance, which came on the road against Morris, Rochelle will compete on its home field as the seventh-seeded Hubs gear up to face the third-seeded Wheaton (St. Francis) Spartans. The Hubs (9-2, 4-1 Interstate 8/Kishwaukee River Blue) rolled into the quarterfinals after scoring a 34-22 road win against Johnsburg this past Friday.
