By Laura Katauskas staff reporter Bolingbrook will be outsourcing its 9-1-1 dispatch system, joining the Western Will County Communications Group, reducing staff and annual costs in a move to streamline services. The village will eliminate 18 positions, 16 telecommunicators and two supervisors. Bolingbrook Lt. Mike Rompa said WESCOM has offered positions at an almost synonymous longevity level (pay grade) and they are including 40 hours of compensatory time, both are union positions and their pension will transfer over. Current operations for 9-11 dispatch services cost the village approximately $1.4 million per year. In the first year, the village anticipates a saving of $319,000, a reduction of 22 percent, and expects

that cost savings to increase over time. In addition, Rompa said technology to maintain the system is becoming more complex and expensive to maintain, with texting capabilities to 9-1-1 on the horizon. “Cook County is already moving forward on this and it will be a challenge with picture and video to 9-1-1 another future project,” said Rompa. “Consolidation is the way of the future and the State has publicly announced a pro-consolidation stance.” Rompa said WESCOM is “truly vision-focused” and will simplify the operation with everything in one building using synonymous equipment and technology and a facility that is rated to withstand a strong tornado.

Road construction crews wrapping up projects One of the largest projects in Joliet, bringing Caton Farm Road from two lanes to five, is also set to be complete in November By Laura Katauskas staff reporter

katauskas@buglenewspapers.com @lkatauskas

Smooth ride down Weber Road? Bridge work near complete? Is it all possible? A number of major Will County Transportation projects are finally wrapping up, giving motorists a reprieve until the next construction season. In Romeoville and Crest Hill, after nearly 18 months of construction mucking up traffic, the widening of Weber Road, a stretch of Airport to Gaskin Roads, is complete, with only sodding left to install. Jeff Ronaldson, assistant county engineer, said that despite obvious delays along the way, noting the contract for the project was awarded in 2012, the project is complete. The $13 million ongoing project brings Weber Road to six lanes along a stretch of road from Airport Road to Renwick. Construction began on the project early in the summer of 2012, but never got far due to issues with the utility companies. The project incurred major delays waiting for Commonwealth Edison and

In addition, the work to widen Renwick Road in that same area also is complete. Perhaps the largestWill County project set in Bolingbrook, and one of the longest, the expansion bridge that extends 95th Street over the DuPage River, will be complete at the start of October, making a more direct connection between Boughton and Plainfield-Naperville roads. Motorists have been using detours for the past year as Kings Road was closed. The nearly $30 million project that essentially connects Bolingbrook to Naperville is being led by Will County with support from both towns. Ronaldson explained Terry shared his love of music by teaching private piano lessons and attending local classical concerts. He also enjoyed traveling to Australia, Germany and Norway. Terry was an elder at New Song Church in Bolingbrook for many years. He is survived by his beloved wife Cathy (Davis); his daughters, Brenna Kozor (Bryan), Stephani Suwanski (Ian), Rebekah Askeland and Brittany Askeland (Michael Rowlatt); and one sister Annette (Ken) Burton. He will be greatly missed by his eight grandsons, Caleb, Josiah, Braeden, Max, Zach, Calvin, Levi and Axel; two granddaughters, Thora and Freya; and by his dog, Joey. He was preceded in death

the extension will reduce the driving distance between the intersection of 95th Street/ Plainfield-Naperville Road and Boughton Road/Kings Road by approximately 1.1 miles. The existing intersection of Kings and Boughton roads have been widened to include dual left turn lanes on the north approach and dedicated left and right turn lanes on the south approach. The last phase of the project to widen and add a traffic signal at Plainfield-Naperville Road with 95th Street however will not be complete until Aug. 2015. One of the largest projects in Joliet, bringing to Caton Farm Road from two lanes to five, is also set to be complete in November.

Bolingbrook gearing up for Joyfest Bolingbrook’s Joyfest will take place from 1 to 6 p.m. Sept. 13 behind the Village Town Center By Laura Katauskas staff reporter

katauskas@buglenewspapers.com @lkatauskas

A community event that touches the soul is set to draw crowds from throughout the area. Bolingbrook’s Joyfest will take place from 1 to 6 p.m. Sept. 13 behind the Village Town Center at 375 Briarcliff Road. Admission is free. Chairman of the Planning Committee Sheldon Watts said the annual family fun Christian music festival aims to provide a unique opportunity for the local community and beyond to come together for a day of fellowship, fun, and festivities and promises Joyfest has something for every member of the family, including food and product vendors, a kid

zone area and an array of musical talent. “Joyfest is a relaxing, uplifting, and enjoyable event that will leave the crowd inspired and encouraged,” said Watts. “Joyfest is important to the community because it is a one-of-a-kind event that has a ministry component to it. This ministry component has a real ability to positively impact the lives of the event attendees.” Performers include choirs and praise teams from many local churches, well-known gospel artists such as Stellar, Dove; Grammy-nominated singer and songwriter Kim Stratton, extraordinary singer Ebony Wimms, Sunday’s Best Season 1 finalist Kalind Haynes, recording artist GodFrame, and the renowned Gospel Music

According to Chicago (GMAC) Mass Choir. Food vendors include Nancy’s Pizza, Little Jimmy’s Italian Ice, and local festival favorite, Johnson Bros. Vending. In addition, giveaways and numerous activities for the kids including two large inflatable bounce houses, a climbing wall, and the Fountaindale Library Book Mobile will be onsite.Each year the festival continues to grow reaching out to all who want to participate or enjoy the day outing. Originally, at its inception in 1998, the Bolingbrook Christian community sponsored a small indoor concert at James Addams Middle School called Gospel Fest at the time. According to Watts, Joyfest was founded by local residents, Leroy Brown, Christen Parker and Pastor Brown who reached beyond the Bolingbrook community, pulling in ministries from Chicago, Joliet and other towns.

The Illinois Soybean Association recently donated more than 800 children’s books to more than 70 Chicago-area libraries. State Rep. Emily McAsey helped deliver the books to several local libraries Aug. 25, including Fountaindale in Bolingbrook. Each library received three copies of “Auntie Yang’s Great Soybean Picnic”and 10 copies of “Soybeans: An A-Z Book.” According to the Educational Testing Service, more types of reading materials in the home correlate with higher student reading proficiency. Sharon Covert, a soybean farmer from Tiskilwa, Ill., and ISA director, says ISA is proud to contribute to the

variety and number of books available to local children and to help educate them about food and farming. “We know that children growing up today are further removed from the farm than previous generations,” she says. “We hope these books help children understand what soybeans are and how important they are to our state, especially since Illinois is the No. 1 soybeanproducing state in the country.” Agriculture is Illinois’ top industry in terms of economic impact. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Illinois soybeans contribute about $5.6 billion to the state’s economy annually. Directly and indirectly, the Illinois agriculture industry creates about 1.5 million jobs, estimates the Illinois Department of Agriculture.

Bethany McKee found guilty in Hickory Street murders The judge scheduled McKee’s sentencing hearing for Oct. 16 By Stewart Warren staff reporter

stewartwarren509@yahoo.com @stewartwarren

The first defendant in the notorious 2013 Hickory S t r e e t murders was found guilty on Friday. There was very little Bethany McKee reaction when Will County Judge Gerald Kinney announced Bethany McKee was guilty of firstdegree murder. No one sitting in the packed courtroom said a word, and McKee did not move, although she did blink rapidly several times. Outside the courthouse, that changed somewhat. The victims’ families did stop and speak briefly as they walked to their cars. “All I have to say is to God be the glory,” said Jamille Kent, the mother of victim Terrance Rankins, standing in front of many television cameras and reporters. Nicole Jones, mother of victim Eric Glover, seemed relieved. “I’m happy,” Jones said. “I was worried. I couldn’t sleep. God did his job.” McKee, a 20-year-old from

Shorewood who has as young daughter, was charged with murder in connection with the Jan. 10, 2013, deaths of Glover and Rankins, both 22, of Joliet. Her friends Alisa R. Massaro, 20, of 1121 N. Hickory St., Joliet; Joshua F. Miner, 26, of 601 W. Jefferson St., Joliet; and Adam M. Landerman, 21, of 1053 Glenwood Ave., Joliet, the son of a Joliet police officer, also were charged with murder in the sensational crimes that shocked people in Joliet and across the country. Miner and Landerman have been accused of strangling the victims while McKee and Massaro participated in other aspects of the crime. In late May, Massaro pleaded guilty to lesser charges -- two counts of robbery and two counts of concealing a homicide – and was sentenced to 10 years in prison. She also agreed to testify against the other defendants in their trials. McKee’s trial began Aug. 4. Represented by Chuck Bretz and Neil Patel, McKee chose a bench trial. That meant that Kinney made all of the decisions in the case, and a jury was not involved in the proceedings. During the six-day trial, many of the gruesome and longrumored details of the case finally emerged. Massaro and Miner attempted to have sex on top of a mattress that had been placed on top of the victim’s bodies, McKee said during her videotaped confession to police.

Miner also talked about removing the face and hair of one of the victims so he could wear it like a mask, she said on the same tape. Before Kinney gave the verdict Friday, he read a sixpage document explaining his decision. It cited case law and explained the “common design rule,” or how defendants can be found guilty of a crime without actually committing it. He also went over the different points of the case. “A review of those facts show a stunning lack of respect for human life as well as a stunning lack of concern for the consequences of taking two human lives,” Kinney said. McKee had several opportunities to prevent the crimes, alert the authorities or leave the scene, but she did not take them, the judge said. “After the victims were subdued, she participated in discussions with the other defendants and implicates herself in her statement that she felt that it was important that these bodies be removed from the premise by saying, ‘You got to get them out of here,’” Kinney said. The lawyers involved in the case would not discuss it and cited the gag order issued by Kinney. It prevented them from talking about the proceedings, Bretz said. “Obviously we are disappointed with the verdict,” he added. The judge scheduled McKee’s sentencing hearing for Oct. 16.

Board hears Lake Michigan water plan

Lake Michigan water could be brought into Shorewood for around $29 million from a Bolingbrook pipeline By Jeanne Millsap For the Sentinel

sweditor@buglenewspapers.com @ShorewoodNews

The Shorewood village board is considering a change from well water to Lake Michigan water. The village has had an Illinois Department of Natural Resources allocation to pipe in lake water since 2005, but it’s poised to begin serious planning for the option should the board take up the recommendation given to them Aug. 26 by consultant Derek Wold of Baxter and Woodman Consulting Engineers. “You have a viable option to bring lake water here,” Wold said at the meeting. In a workshop before the meeting, Wold said the board should make the decision within the next year, as it would likely be six or seven years to get the system online,

which is also precisely when the village’s well water could reach its maximum output. Currently, Shorewood gets its water from four shallow and two deep wells that have a combined capacity of four million gallons per day. By the year 2017, Wold said, that flow will be reached. “Sometime in the next five years,” he said, “the village should plan on having another water source.” The deep aquifer used by the Chicago area is expected to be dewatered by 2050, its use highest in the Joliet/Shorewood area, he said. Water from the deep wells also has enough radium that Shorewood has to treat it, creating radioactive sludge, which is going to become a problem to dispose of, Wold said. He told trustees not to count on its shallow wells much longer, either, because the

Lake Michigan water is clean and abundant, he said, and could be brought into Shorewood for an initial cost of around $29 million by partnering with Plainfield to bring a line from a Bolingbrook pipeline on Schmidt Road.

Governor signs bill for new Will County courthouse State Senator Pat McGuire (D-Crest Hill) led a bipartisan group of legislators in helping pass House Bill 5889 Governor Pat Quinn signed off on a bill that will allow an increase in court fees to help pay for new Will County courthouse. State Senator Pat McGuire (D-Crest Hill) led a bipartisan group of legislators in helping pass House Bill 5889. The Senate had recently passed the bill on a 46-7 vote, allowing the Will County Board to adopt a “judicial facilities fee” of up to $30 on civil and criminal cases which require a court appearance. The fees collected can be used only for the construction of a

new courthouse and courtrooms. “The current courthouse is overcrowded and deteriorating,”McGuire said. “We need a courthouse that’s the right size for the fourth most populous county in the state and that’s built to last.” The new fee would raise an estimated $1.5 to $2 million per year. A new courthouse is expected to cost between $140 and $200 million. County officials currently are discussing a mix of revenue sources to finance the construction.

State Senator Pat McGuire D-Crest Hill

The judicial facilities fee was the idea of Twelfth Judicial Circuit Chief Judge Richard Schoensteadt, who described it as “a classic user’s fee.”The initiative was endorsed by Will County Executive Larry Walsh, Sr. and the Will County Board. “Officials of all three branches of Will County government— judicial, executive, and legislative—supported this bill across party lines,” McGuire said. “Here in Springfield, Democrats and Republicans together put their weight behind the bill.”

operating and maintenance costs would be much lower, and there would be no radium in the product. The board briefly discussed ways to pay for bringing lake water online, and they learned that increasing sales tax by one percent would meet the costs. At an initial project cost of $29 million and an annual interest rate of 2.25 percent with a 30-year loan, the annual debt for the village would be $1.3 million. A one percent increase in sales tax would bring in a revenue of $2 million per year. The village, however, might have to consider becoming a home-ruled municipality to increase the sales tax, which would require a majority vote in a village-wide election. Shorewood’s Finance Director Anne Burkholder said raising property taxes is probably not an option to finance the new water source, as it would put the village in a “precarious position” if it needs to issue bonds for another capital project. Increasing water and sewer fees would bring in additional

dollars for the project, but it would be a drop in the bucket, the board was told. In the end, Mayor Richard Chapman said the matter would be taken under consideration. Also Tuesday, the board approved its comprehensive financial report and audit, reported by Dan Berg, of Sikich LLP. Berg said the audit opinion was “clean” and that there were no new deficiencies identified.

The board also: Approved a proposal for professional design engineering services with Christopher B. Burke Engineering for Parkshore Drive storm sewer improvements at $47,800. Tabled a motion made by the mayor to extend a reduction in school impact fees for another two years. Heard a plea by Trustee Jim McDonald for drivers to be sure they turn their headlights on in the morning. With the shorter daylight hours and children starting back to school and waiting at bus stops, it can be difficult to see the children without headlights, he said.

ya’ll come Back now, ‘Hear? Check out the upcoming Ag Expo in Manhattan By nicK reiher manaGinG eDitor

nreiher@buglenewspapers.com @JolietILNews

I told you last week how much I enjoyed, and needed, a few hours at the Will County Fair to reset my body clock and get my head straight. There are other events, such as the Legislative Barn Meetings, I look forward to and remember fondly in the rearview mirror. We have a new one now. One started last year by Manhattan farmer John Kiefner. He invited one and all, especially city folk, to his farm for a few hours of good, honest, and instructional, life on the farm. This year, it’s set for noon to 4 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 14, at his farm, 15002 W. Hoff Road, Manhattan. It’s kind of like Ag Expo, but for whole families. At Ag Expo each spring, fourth-graders from throughout Will County can take a field trip (I used to love those) to the JJC Weitendorf Agricultural Education Center on Laraway Road, which is set up with live

animals and displays showing the kids and their teachers all the steps that go into making pizza. Then they eat some that’s already been prepared and delivered, without having to give any more thought to how the sausage, or pepperoni, is made. At the Kiefners’ Farm, visitors last year got a load of all that John and his wife Sherry are involved including raising crops, a handful of animals, old and new farm machinery, and tours of the whole shebang. Whenever you want to, there will be hot dogs, courtesy of Farmers Weekly Review. Try not to think about what went into making those. There might even be some fresh corn, too. Oh, politicians and wanna-bees are invited, too. Many by now have at least been around farms, but you never know. I’m hoping Will County Board Member Jackie Traynere from Bolingbrook can stop by. You may remember she told fellow Board Member Judy Ogalla of Monee they’re putting the South Suburban Airport out there because there’s nothing there. I got the camera ready for some high-speed action that day, but Judy, to her credit, let it go

with just a few stern words of reprimand. Those of you who know John Kiefner are aware he seems to be moving in four directions at once. That’s no different on the farm. I swear last year, he was leading four different presentations at four different parts of the farm at the same time. Only John. … It’s like the “7 Faces of Dr. Lao,” except with barns and animals. Last year, it was chilly and it drizzled, and he and Sherry still had about 100 people visit over the course of the afternoon. It is on the same day as the Sprint Cup race at Chicagoland Speedway, but, really, you can TiVo that. You can’t TiVo real life on a farm. You get all the sights, sounds and smells, live. And even if you never step onto a farm again (and do watch where you step), for a few hours, you had that experience. And you get to see one small example of why Will County is one of the prime Ag producers, not only in the state, but globally. So, come on out, introduce yourself and have a great time. You’ll be glad you did … especially if you bring old shoes.

Cooling off for a great cause

In mid-August, Facebook reported that 2.4 million videos related to the Ice Bucket Challenge

By now you have seen the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge videos of people getting doused with ice water and then nominating others to embrace this call to action.They encourage friends and relatives to accept the challenge, donate money to an ALS charity or do both. In mid-August, Facebook reported that 2.4 million videos related to the Ice Bucket Challenge had been shared and more than 28 million people posted,commented or liked these posts. As the executive director of the Skokie-based Les Turner ALS Foundation, I am invigorated by the response to this campaign. Some videos have been funny, others creative, and some very emotional. These videos provide

hope to the ALS community – hope that the dialogue around ALS will continue and funding will continue to increase, long after the Ice Bucket Challenge has ended. While we have not raised tens of millions of dollars like the national organization and we will not receive any of the funds they have collected, the Les Turner ALS Foundation has experienced a significant increase in fundraising. Since the Challenge took off, we have raised over $550,000, a nearly 600 percent increase over what we raised last year in the same time period. When people choose to donate to the Les Turner ALS Foundation, their contribution stays local.They are helping support three research laboratories at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, a patient center at Northwestern Medicine and a range of patient services, such as home visits, support groups and grant programs. Critics of the campaign have said it fails to move the needle in terms of awareness, so for

those unsure of what ALS is, it’s a terminal neuromuscular disorder that attacks a person’s muscles, gradually robbing them of their ability to walk, speak, eat and breathe, yet usually keeping their mind intact. At any given time, approximately 35,000 people in the United States are living with ALS. Currently, there is no prevention or cure. I am grateful for every donor and every dollar, as these funds guarantee the programs we offer will continue and new programs can be created, both in research and care; however, the public needs to know that the millions of dollars continually referenced in the media will not benefit the Les Turner ALS Foundation, only those funds donated directly to us will be allocated toward our local programs. Sincerely, Wendy Abrams Executive Director Les Turner ALS Foundation Skokie, IL

District looking to increase its college attendees; degree recipients District 365U has embarked on a unified multi-year plan In an effort to continue to increase the number of seniors who not only attend college, but also go on to obtain their degrees, Valley View School District 365U has embarked on a unified multiyear plan to educate students about the skills and knowledge necessary to be successful in life. Developed by the VVSD College and Career Readiness Committee, components of the plan will be

launched this fall at every grade level. “It’s exciting to be able to look at the data and see roughly two thirds of our students go to a two-year or four-year college right after they graduate from high school,” said Dorletta Payton, Director of College and Career Readiness for VVSD. “We want to widen the funnel to not only get more kids into college but also increase the number of kids who get their degrees and ultimately go into a career that can sustain them and their future families.” Both VVSD high schools, in cooperation with the Illinois Student Assistance Commission (ISAC), are in the final planning stages for information-filled college application nights in September that will help seniors and their parents understand, and actually

begin, the college application process. The “College Admissions Process I” events will take place at 6 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 10 at Bolingbrook High School and at 6 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 23 in the Romeoville High School Little Theatre. Parents and students may attend either session regardless of where they live. Romeoville High School and ISAC will also host “College Admissions Process II” on Tuesday, Oct. 28 featuring more information on applications, interviews and financial aid. Meanwhile, the entire month of October has been declared “College Application Month” in VVSD. While details on the month’s activities at every grade level are in the formative stages and won’t be released for several weeks, Payton gave a

sneak peek at what’s in store for high school seniors. “Our goal is to get each senior to fill out and submit at least one postsecondary application during October,” she said. “Or if they’re interested in the military, we want them to meet with one recruiter.” Also on the 2014-15 school year schedule are FAFSA Completion Nights, evenings designed to help juniors and their parents start their college search,standardized testing seminars and what promises to be an amazing “College Declaration Day” celebration in May. Plus, students at both the middle and elementary school levels will be involved in a variety of college awareness activities. “This is really an opportunity to shine a light on college and career readiness,” Payton said. “Our goal is to make

more students and parents are aware of the possibilities.”

New Assistant Principal at Martinez Romeoville High School Dean of Students Russell “Bill” Normand Jr. has been named Assistant Principal at A.Vito Martinez Middle School effective immediately. He succeeds Lisa Harrington who has left the district. Normand has been with Romeoville High School since 2003, having served as a health, physical education and driver education instructor. He also coached wrestling, boys and girls golf, baseball and football at RHS, was the announcer for football and basketball games, and was coordinator of the Teen Safe Driving/SADD program and sophomore class sponsor.

Raiders fall in season opener By Mark Gregory sports reporter

mark@buglenewspapers.com @Hear_The_Beard

While the result of the last two games in Bolingbrook stadium has been the same, the outcome is still different. When the Raiders lost the final game of the season last year at home, it ended their season. This year, despite falling 23-15 to Hinsdale Central on opening night, coach John Ivlow and the team understand it is only the first game. “It is a motivator. If you don’t know the meaning of the word resolve, look it up,” Ivlow said. His players agreed. “This is not the way we wanted the game to turn out, but we just have to leave this behind us,” said junior middle linebacker Tuf Borland.“I will give them full credit.They are a quality team and they hit us with a few things that we were not expecting. We just have to get better. We are looking at this as it is and this is only week one, so we have to get better.” Bolingbrook found itself down by a pair of scores early, as Hinsdale Central blocked a Raider punt that was taken back in for a score less than three minutes into the contest. “We just made too many mistakes,” Ivlow said. “We had some penalties and some special teams that we have to get taken care of, but we will be alright.” After a possession which the

Bolingbrook’s Quincy Woods led the team in rushing in the loss to Hinsdale Central.

Bolingbrook defense held on a fourth down, the Red Devils struck again as they scored on a 74-yard pass when quarterback Adam Klein hit Neo Armstrong for a 41-yard touchdown late in the first quarter. A Julian Huff 2-point conversion made the game 14-8.

After a lightning delay, Quincy Woods ran in from two-yards out and Bolingbrook took a 15-14 lead. Hinsdale Central then took over the game. Red Devils’ quarterback Matt Rafferty hit Ryan Doney from

what happens.” An interception on Bolingbrook’s next possession and a Hinsdale Central field goal all but put the game away. The Raiders would get two >> see FALL | page 15

Bolingbrook runners ready for season By Mark Gregory sports reporter

mark@buglenewspapers.com @Hear_The_Beard

A season ago, the Bolingbrook boys cross country team came up just shy of advancing as a team to the IHSA sectional meet, finishing seventh at the regional level, one place short. Senior Jonathan Cook advanced to the sectional as an individual last year and returns this season to pace the Raiders. He is joined back by Peyton Chapman and Bjorn Shroda. In Chapman, Bolingbrook returns a runner who had battled injur y a year ago and advanced to state in state track last season. They will join forces to tr y and help the Raiders, finish in top half of conference and qualify as a team for the sectional meet. “Our returnees put in major mileage over summer and we need to build on that as we progress through the season,” said Bolingbrook coach Art Pahl. Bolingbrook is looking for newcomers to step up and Pahl has an idea of two that could be ready. “Sophomore Caleb Robertson (1500 meters) and junior Eric Dzik (3000 meter racewalk) both qualified for the USATF National Junior Olympics last month in Humble, Texas,” Pahl said. “We are hoping that experience will benefit them in their upcoming cross countr y and track seasons.” The Romeoville boys cross countr y team also enjoyed a successful season a year ago, as the Spartans sent the entire team through the regional round and onto sectional. Of the runners from last season, only two were seniors, meaning the Spartans expect five of its top seven runners and all buy one scorer from the sectional.

The Raiders return four of the top five runners in senior Cassandra Cerpa, junior Marisa Caputo and sophomores Trianna Rodriguez and Arianna Amill.

to carry the ball for Bolingbrook in the loss. The Raiders were paced by Woods, who had 11 carries for 41 yards while lining up in several positions during the game. Woods also had seven catches for 64 yards. Klein connected on 10 of 21 pass attempts for 123 yards. Defensively, Borland paced the team with 13 tackles, four for loss. “I can speak for Micah and the twins and myself and say that we are here to help the team and we will do whatever we can do to help the team,” Borland said.

volleyball team posted a 16-19-2 record, but just how good the season could have been was marred by injuries. “Last year we were plagued with several injuries throughout the season and we never were fully healthy,” said Raider coach Andrea Bercot. “That left a lot of question marks with how the season could have gone.” Because of the injuries, Bercot expects returners Megan Bielawski(senior, outside hitter), Nicole Gambon (senior, setter), Juliana Wober (junior, outside hitter) and Kayla Loeb (senior, opposite side) to lead the team. “Because of last season our returning players seem to be ver y eager for this season,” Bercot said. “I can already see the determination an dedication in them. We seem to be ver y scrappy and defensive minded this year, and I am ver y happy with that being a foundation to build on. “My goal for them is to be ver y smart this season. I want them to have good vision of the opponent’s side and make smart decisions. Our conference is always competitive and we always strive to be at the top.”

continued from page 11 and I know the boys can’t either,” he said. “We can play with anybody still, we will be fine. The most improvements ever y year happen from week one to week t wo.” Romeoville has not defeated Bolingbrook since the 2002-03 season when both teams were par t of the SIC A Gray, however, the Raider loss gives Romeoville players confidence. “It gives us a lot of confidence, but Hinsdale Central is a good team also,” said Romeoville

quar terback Kelvin Jones. “Both of us have lost and both of us are looking for a win so it’s going to be a tough game. They have a good defense, but I think we can come out and beat them.” “It’s going to be tough, but if we play tough and listen to our coaches, we’re going to have a good chance of beating Bolingbrook,” said senior Chuck Hunter. “We have a lot of returning star ters, we pass the ball a lot and we have a pret t y good running back (Gil Whitaker), one of the best running backs I’ve seen.”

Keys to the game: As obvious as it sounds, the team that will win the game is the team that scores. If Romeoville can get on the board fast, it could be a huge boost for the Spar tan sideline, whereas a fast tally by the Raiders could spark the new of fense and send Bolingbrook on a roll. Special teams and penalties will be another key as both plagued Bolingbrook Friday night. Compiled by Mark Gregor y and Mike Sandrolini

Flyers picked second in GLVC East Division The Lewis University women’s volleyball program has been picked to finish second in the Great LakesValley Conference East Division in the 2014 preseason poll released on Tuesday (Aug. 26). The poll is voted on by the league’s 16 head coaches. The Flyers, who won the 2013 regular season GLVC crown, is slotted behind 2013 GLVC Tournament champion Indianapolis. The Flyers picked up seven first place votes and 110 total points. Indianapolis gained nine first place votes and 112 points. “To be ranked second and so close to first is a sign of the respect this team has earned around the league,” Lewis head coach Lorelee Smith said. “I appreciate the respect but as Indianapolis proved last year it’s about getting better as the year goes on and playing your best volleyball during the tournament.” Truman State and Rockhurst were selected as one and two, respectively, in the GLVC West Division. The 2014 Flyers return every starter from 2013 including last year’s GLVC Player of the Year Kim Vertin (Joliet, Ill./Joliet Central). Lewis opens the season Sept. 5 against New Haven and Florida Southern.

CROSS COUNTRY The U.S.Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) released its preseason regional rankings on Tuesday (Sept. 2), and the Lewis University men’s squad finds itself ranked No. 7 overall in the Midwest Region. The Flyers are the secondhighest ranked Great Lakes Valley Conference squad in the region, behind Southern Indiana (No. 2) and ahead of both UW-Parkside (No. 9) and Indianapolis (No. 10). Despite losing its three top runners to graduation, including 2013All-AmericanAndrew McLain (Fort Wayne, Ind./Homestead), first-year head coach James Kearney believes that the early season ranking could serve as a motivating factor for his Flyers. “It’s nice to be ranked after losing the upperclassmen that we did,” Kearney said.“We have a lot to live up to (with this initial ranking), and my hope is that our

intensity in practice matches the expectations now placed on us.” Lewis opens the 2014 campaign on Saturday (Sept. 6), as the Flyers head to Indiana to participate in the Crimson Wave Invite, hosted by Calumet College of St. Joseph. The race is slated to begin at 6:30 PM.

BASEBALL Lewis University head baseball coach Tim McDonough has announced four final additions to the 2015 roster. Ryan Fox (Centerville, Ohio/Centerville), Patrick Maloney (Naperville, Ill./ Naperville Central),Taylor Grimm (Cedarburg, Wis./Cedarburg) and Cory Starnes (Machesney Park, Ill./Harlem/Rock Valley College) will join the Flyers this fall and compete during the 2015 campaign. “I couldn’t be happier with the addition of these four young men to the Lewis baseball program,” McDonough said.“We feel like we solidified ourselves behind the plate and added two more power arms to our pitching staff which is what we set out to do after our successful early signing period. On top of all of that they are all outstanding students and come from great families.” Ryan Fox (RHP, 6-4, 200) earned three varsity letters for Centerville High School. As a senior he was a team captain and named AllConference First Team. He was a Miami Valley Baseball Coaches Association All-Area First Team selection and named the team’s MVP. He threw 57.2 innings as a senior and compiled a 0.61 ERA with a 7-3 record. He earned a 0.76 WHIP while striking out 60 batters. “Ryan is 6-4, throws a mid 80’s fastball and has command of his secondary pitches,” McDonough said. “He played in a very good conference in the Dayton area and his high school coaches rave about his make-up and competitiveness. We see him as a very reliable guy out of the bullpen as a freshman with the upside to grow into a weekend starter.” Patrick Maloney (RHP, 6-6, 220) recorded a 1.42 ERA and an 8-1 record in 69 innings as a senior at Naperville Central High School. He was named to the Naperville Sun and Daily Herald DuPage County All-Area teams.

One of the most important factors that lead to higher risks of injury is a lack of proper safety gear and protective equipment. Helmets need to be worn for sports such as baseball, football, lacrosse, hockey, biking and skating. Parents and coaches should also consider various other safety measures such as protective eyewearwith shatterproof goggles, mouth guards, athletic supporters, shoulder pads and shin guards. The risk varies depending on the sport and level of competition. Parents and trainers must ensure that the appropriate safety gear is available, but also that it fits properly and is actually worn correctly by the young athletes.

All athletics, from practices or training sessions to the competition itself must have qualified adult oversight. Members of the staff and coaches should have training in first aid and CPR. They should understand the importance of proper safety equipment and technique. The playing field should be free from irregularities, andotherapparatusesandequipmentshouldbe checked for proper maintenance. Adults should ensure that the participants are appropriately matched for the sport they are playing and the physical size of other participants. The staff must require adequate rest and hydration before and during practice and competition. The coaches should also be on the look out for signs of injury and must hold injured kids out of participation until evaluated by medical staff.

Children must understand the rules and proper techniques before participating in active competition so they don’t injure themselves or other participants. There must be adequate rest periods between practices or games, and knowledgeable adults should conduct training and warm up sessions.

In every circumstance, the approach should be to “play it safe”. The athlete should be removed from the practice or competition immediately until appropriate first aid and medical assessment can be completed. If the injury affects basic function, such as causing a limp or the child cannot fully bend a joint, the evaluation should be done by a physician. And of course for more severe

injuries the athlete should be taken to the nearest hospital Emergency department. For aches and pains that develop over time, more typical of overuse injuries, the child should be examined by their pediatrician who can correctly diagnose the condition and develop a treatment plan, which usually involves rest and anti- inflammatory medications such as ibuprofen.
