Calling all athletes! Energy-boosting foods needed

I'm a high school student that happens to play football in the fall and rugby in the spring and summer. I just can't seem to find more than a handful of foods that can re-energize me and put me on track for the rest of the evening so I can work productively without feeling worn out.

Granola bars failed (too much sugar, I think).
Nuts work...but there's gotta be some more foods that keep me going, at least from 5:00-11:00 PM.

If there are any athletes, or if you have any sort of experience with energy-boosting, lower sugar foods, please, voice your expertise in the comments! What do you do?
(Sorry JEP, I borrowed the format of the topic title, I hope you don't mind).
