Off a 42-12 win at Pontiac last week, the Monticello Sages host Rantoul for Homecoming Night.

The Sages allowed a pair of big-play touchdowns in the first half but rebounded to blank the Indians in the second half and roll to their fifth straight win.

The winless Eagles lost 30-6 last week to Paxton-Buckley-Loda.
