Chester visited Red Bud on Friday, October 17. Both teams play in the Cahokia Conference, Illinois Division, and it would be their last conference matchup of the year. With Chester going into the game undefeated in conference, a win would crown the Yellow Jackets outright conference champions. And they did not disappoint.

Receiving was led by Junior Tashawn Palacio with 81 yards and a touchdown, along with Junior Trey McCartney with 51 yards, and Junior Zane Eggemeyer with 33 yards and a touchdown. Rushing was led by Senior Ethan Colvis with 138 yards and 2 touchdowns, Juniors Alex Blechle added 33 and Eggemeyer 24.
The defense was led by Colvis with 7 tackles, and senior Morgan Miers with 7 tackles, 1 for a loss and 1 sack.
