New geometry in construction community Star at Weber class a big hit with students Senior Place invites public to a Most recently they built cedar benches and an entry way for new edible garden
It’s full speed ahead next year for Romeoville High School’s new geometry in construction class. “We’ve taken the focus off the formality of geometry and put it more into practical applications,” said RHS industrial technology instructor Jim Egizio, who, along with math instructor J.C. Nagel, spent two hours a day every school day with 10 sophomores helping them learn how the practical side of geometry. “We’re taking things they learn in geometry and showing them how it applies to the trades,” Nagel said. “This isn’t learning how to frame a house and it’s not just swinging a hammer,” Egizio said. “We talk about excavation, road construction, plumbing, electric…all the trades. They need to understand why math is important in all this.” The class worked on several projects over the past year including construction of an 8x10 greenhouse for RHS, a chicken coup they sold to a local resident, and a 10x12 free-

It was only fitting the festival come to Bolingbrook, which is a sister city to San Pablo, in the Philippines, where Bolingbrook Mayor Roger Claar visited. The two cities share a mutual relationship promoting trade and tourism. “There is a Philippine population in Bolingbrook and we are thankful to Mayor Claar for his support,” said Ruben Salazar, cultural director and festival chair of the Philippine American Cultural Foundation. “The festival is your chance to celebrate our culture. For some who may be homesick, this festival gives them a little piece of home and allows us to share our culture, our food and our

Most recently they built cedar benches and an entry way for the new edible garden at A. Vito Martinez Middle School, working side-by-side with AVM students on a cold, rainy day to assemble them. “The AVM kids jumped right into it with our kids,” Nagel said. “This is the only program like this in Illinois that we know of,” Egizio said. You can see they understand geometry a little bit better. We’re pumped for next
year.” And “pumped” they should be because next fall 30 sophomores will be enrolled in the unique two-credit class. “We can’t just build sheds with 30 kids. We’ll have a whole crew next year so we’ll need to build bigger structures,” Egizio said. “I’m going to try my darndest to find a Habitat (for Humanity) house that we can build in stages here and have it shipped.” A pretty lofty goal? Not really, said Egizio. Just another way to make sure VVSD students are prepared for their future. “The industry needs skilled people,” he said.
Senior Star at Weber Place will host Dr. Anjum Owaisi, medical director of Adventist Bolingbrook Hospital Wound Center at 11:30 a.m.Wednesday, June 25 at 605 South Edward Drive in Romeoville.

Lewis University to leave Shorewood University had been renting the 8,000-squarefoot building housing six classrooms By Stewart Warren For the sentinel
stewartwarren509@yahoo.com @stewartwarren
Lewis University will close its Shorewood campus on Dec. 31. The classes that now are being taught at 247 Brook Forest Ave. will be moved to the main campus in Romeoville, said Kathrynne Skonicki, the school’s director of media relations. The university had been renting the 8,000-square-foot building housing six classrooms and located in the parking lot of
the Jewel-Osco store, 199 Brook Forest Ave., Shorewood. “We are not going to renew the lease,” Skonicki said June 10. The Shorewood campus currently offers business and nursing classes for undergraduate students, Skonicki said. “It was focused on nontraditional students, adults who were coming in the evening for classes from 6-10 p.m. on week days and nights,” Skonicki said, adding that some weekend classes also were held in there. The university recently bought and remodeled the 140,000-square-foot St. Charles Borromeo Center that is near the main Romeoville campus, and the classes that were taught in Shorewood will be moved there,
she said. That purchase and the increased demand for on-line and classes prompted the decision. Beginning this fall, the Borromeo Center will house the College of Business and School for Professional and Continuing Education adult undergraduate programs. In the past, these programs were served by the Shorewood location, Skonicki said. The center has newly renovated classrooms, computer labs and study spaces for students. There haven’t been any complaints from students who used the Shorewood campus. “We’re still getting the word out,” Skonicki said. “There are students who certainly have enjoyed going to the Shorewood campus for the convenience of the location.”

Federal judge tells Elwood to remove reroute barriers By nick reiher managing editor
nreiher@buglenewspapers.com @JolietILNews
The Village of Elwood has untilTuesday morning to remove barriers blocking northbound traffic on Baseline Road from Walter Strawn Drive in the CenterPoint Intermodal Park. U.S. District Judge Gary Feinerman on Friday issued a temporary restraining order requiring the Village of Elwood to remove all traffic barriers and cease enforcement of its traffic ordinance that directly impacts the CenterPoint Intermodal Center (CIC) by 6 a.m., Tuesday, June 17. CenterPoint spokesperson Jacque Engle said Feinerman’s order was based on the fact that Elwood’s actions severely restrict truck access to and from intermodal facilities in the CenterPoint park, causing irreparable harm to CenterPoint and the other tenants in the CIC, and violate federal law on interstate commerce and transportation via the Surface Transportation Act and other sections of federal and state law. The judge found that CenterPoint has a likelihood of success on the merits of several of the claims made in court, she added. As of May 26, truckers no longer were able to use Elwood as a shortcut to get to Joliet’s Union Pacific intermodal facility a few miles north of the BNSF intermodal. Both are on CenterPoint property and are part of a transportation mix that makes Will County the largest inland port in North America. The village used home rule power to create a port authority earlier this year. The port authority, composed of village representatives, as well as officials from Elwood’s BNSF Intermodal Park and several of the businesses, voted to close traffic on Baseline Road. Until then, truckers had been coming off Interstate 80 and south on Route 53 (Chicago Street) to get to Walter Strawn Drive. They would then turn north on Baseline Road to get to Joliet’s Union Pacific Intermodal Park, on the north end of the CenterPoint Park. Elwood
officials said truck traffic on Walter Strawn Drive is up to 8,000 trucks a day, and that barring the ones headed north to the UP Park would reduce that number by 2,000. They point to accidents that have occurred on Route 53 due to increased truck traffic, including trucks running into the crossing gates on Walter Strawn Drive. They said trucks should instead use Interstate 55 and the new Arsenal Road interchange created to handle that truck traffic. CenterPoint and other critics of the reroute wondered why Elwood officials could not wait
“We remain committed to being a good corporate neighbor and protecting our investment in the economy and infrastructure of the region,” Engle said in a release. until the Illinois Commerce Commission case the village reopened was addressed. The next hearing is scheduled within the week. Also, they wondered why, if village officials were concerned about safety, they couldn’t have waited to do the reroute until after construction on the Des Plaines River Bridge on I-55 was completed in a few months. Congestion due to that project caused dozens of accidents, including two fatalities, last year. Officials from CenterPoint and the Village of Elwood each have accused the other of ignoring the opportunity to talk and possibly solve the issue. CenterPoint Properties, in conjunction with Union Pacific and APL Logistics, filed suit June 9 in United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, seeking injunctive relief from a traffic ordinance recently passed by the Village of Elwood that directly impacts access to the CenterPoint Intermodal Center. The lawsuit alleged Elwood’s actions severely restrict truck access to and from intermodal facilities in the CenterPoint park, violating federal law on interstate
commerce and transportation, causing significant economic damage and creating unsafe road conditions throughout the region. CenterPoint official say they have invested more than $1.5 billion in the CIC-Joliet/Elwood, resulting in job creation and tax support for the community. The development has resulted in more than $7 million per year in new property taxes for the Village and a total investment in the Village of Elwood of more than $800 million, they said. Direct benefits to the community, worth tens of millions of dollars, funded primarily by CenterPoint, include road improvements; support for police and fire services; expansion of public utilities, including a new water and wastewater treatment plant; a Village water tower and a Village park, they added. “We remain committed to being a good corporate neighbor and protecting our investment in the economy and infrastructure of the region,” Engle said in a release. “And we remain hopeful that the Village of Elwood will work with us on a cooperative resolution that will address traffic issues and continue the progression and success of the park. In a press release, village officials said the judge’s order gave them time to complete a traffic study using the reroute for a June 18 ICC hearing. They maintain the reroute was done to improve safety for the village’s portion of the intermodal park, as well as along that stretch of Route 53 where accidents and close calls have been more common. Critics of the village’s plan said the reroute has instead sent more trucks onto nearby Millsdale Road, parts of which are more residential, because they still want to avoid the I-55 bridge construction. Elwood officials in the release said in making his decision, the judge used a federal statute that disallows states, towns, and localities from regulating railroads, the judge decided that, for a two week period, the barricades must be removed, preliminarily finding they effectively regulate the railroad.

I first met Jan Novotny more years ago than either of want to admit. At the time, she was Coordinator of the Youth College at JJC, and I was a reporter at the Herald News. She called one day asking about getting some help with a summer program she wanted to do for the Youth College: helping the kids put out their own newspaper. It sounded like fun. Jan and I came up with a curriculum and ran it past the poobahs at the H-N. Before we knew it, we were off and running. The kids came over to the newspaper office on Caterpillar Drive, now the administration center for Joliet Township High Schools. I don’t know what the kids thought when they first
saw the building, but I know I was impressed when I did. A nice, clean building with lots of glass and a moat. The moat was around only the publisher’s office, just in case the community revolted. The rest of us were on our own, I guess. We gave the kids a tour. I can’t remember if the press still was in the building, but that was the most impressive-looking part of the place. Especially when it was running. That was fun to see, and I miss that. We taught the kids all aspects of newspaper work: writing, editing, photography, ads … and truth and integrity, something that still separates what professional journalists do versus the other stuff you see on the web. We even brought them to a new event so they could have something to write about.
They took their own pictures and made their own ads. And at the end, they laid out and put together their own newspaper. We celebrated with pizza, the food of choice for journalists everywhere. We had a ball, and then we went our separate ways. We never did get a chance to do the summer newspaper project again. But I saw Jan fairly regularly when we took the kids to the Gnome Festival at Bicentennial Park each December. She’s director of the play, and she and her husband Tom play the Woodsman and his wife. Her daughter Lori was co-director as well as an actress from her youth to adulthood. >> To see THe fuLL VersIoN of THIs sTorY, CHeCk ouT buglenewspapers.Com

>> women, from page 7 special guest Lisa Las, Executive Director of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Will & Grundy Counties, speak to us about mentoring opportunities nearby. Launching a new and innovative mentoring program called Mentor2.0, Las shared excited opportunities
that drew the interest of many members. No matter how much or how little time you have, there are opportunities to give back and make a difference for a local child or young adult. In Springfield, I have been involved with the Conference of Women Legislators (COWL), a bipartisan, bicameral group of women in the General
Assembly. We hold different events throughout the year to raise private dollars for college scholarships that are awarded to non-traditional age women, for example – a woman whose college pursuits may have been postponed by motherhood. We also offer trainings, workshops and other support services for each other and newcomers who
are looking to get involved. In addition to the scholarship awards, every year, COWL, in partnership with the University of Illinois and their Institute of Government, holds a conference in Chicago for young women called NEW Leadership Illinois, a non-partisan, week-long residential program for college women designed to increase
women’s representation in all elements of public life, including elected office. The goal of the program is to challenge these young women, who are interested in public leadership and elected office, to think critically and creatively about public policy. Each year, hundreds of applications are submitted, and after a long and difficult process, 20 women are chosen.These bright and aspiring leaders are submerged in a weeklong process of understanding their own leadership qualities, gaining new leadership skills, learning to negotiate desired outcomes and handling ethical dilemmas. It is an exciting week for all who participate, and every time I attend and interact with these young women, I am inspired and hopeful for the future. As I look forward to seeing my Working Women’s Advisory Committee grow, I hope that someday the membership will include some of those New Leadership Illinois students I’ve met through COWL. Many of these young women told me that New Leadership Illinois experience was life changing, that they were excited about finding ways to get involved in shaping public policy and were resolute in their desire to take on the challenge of seeking out their place within public service. No matter where the path leads these women, we will all benefit from their commitment to make our communities a better place.

Wildcats’ Poznanski tabbed Player of the Year By Scott Taylor sports editor
staylor@enterprisepublications.com @Taylor_Sports
Not much was expected from the Plainfield Central volleyball team this year. Not only had the Wildcats never won a regional championship, they also lost several contributors from last year and were breaking in a third coach in as many years. However, they went on a remarkable run this year, going 27-11 and advancing to the Bolingbrook Sectional championship game. In the Bolingbrook semifinal, senior outside hitter Tom Poznanski carried the Wildcats, tallying 24 kills in the match. For the season Poznanski had 402 kills, 139 digs 74 total blocks and 85 aces. For his accomplishments, Poznanski has been named the Voyager Media 2014 Boys Volleyball Player of the Year. “It is such an honor,” Poznanski said. “I didn’t play club this year, so I was kind of disappointed. I wasn’t playing in college, so I just wanted to
leave my mark. I wanted to do something that no team has done in history. I knew it was going to be tough, but if we could get the young team together, we could do great things. We hit our stride at the right moment. Personally, I was just doing whatever I could to help my team get Ws. It’s just an honor to be recognized. There are so many good players in this area.” Poznanksi was one of just for seniors this year for Plainfield Central. “As a senior I knew I had to step up and be a leader,” Poznanski said. “I had to lead the underclassmen and show the energy they have to bring next year. I felt like I had to be a role model for all levels.” “Two-time all-area outside Tom Poznanski is one of the most well-rounded athletes in the state,” Plainfield Central coach Alex Hurlburt said.“While his serving, defense and servereceive are all excellent, most will remember him for his highflying, powerful hits.

Instead, he will be attending Northwestern University in Evanston. “It was a choice I made quite early,” Poznanski said. “I got more money for academics. I’m still going to be involved with volleyball there, but I’m not going to play competitively. I really wanted to go D-I or D-II. I had D-III offers, but I didn’t really want to go D-III. It just all played out that way.” The rest of the members of the Voyager Media All-Area team are:
CHRISTIAN ALES S e n i o r outside hitter was a threeyear varsity starter from Bolingbrook. He ended the season with 154 kills and 124 digs.
“He is the main leader of our team and has helped grow the program by getting others excited and serious about the game,” said Bolingbrook coach Andrea Bercot.
TONY ALLEN A junior libero for JCA, Allen tallied 400 digs and 40 Aces and was named to the East Suburban Catholic AllConference team.
ELI GELFAND Niles West’s senior outside hitter rang up a team-leading 303 kills, but thanks to a devastating jump-serve, he also was the Wolves’ leader in aces with 29. He helped lead Niles West to its first regional title since 2005. “Eli, for such as skinny guy, he can put a lot of muscle behind that ball,” said Niles West coach Drew Roche. “When he’s on, and his jump-serve is on, it’s fun watching him. He was our go-to player when we needed a kill.”

SCOTT KLEISER
BRIAN LYMAN
Benet junior totaled 238 kills, 45 blocks and 61 digs. “Scott is a very versatile player, starting out the season at outside hitter and then transitioning to our middle blocker about halfway through season,” Benet coach Amy Van Eekeen said. “He is quick, athletic and able to hit a variety of sets from various locations on the court. He is co-captain of our team and definitely demonstrates leadership with his hard work and determination.”
Senior four-year starter for Joliet West was a two-time SWSC All Conference player and team MVP in 2013. The team captain and one of the senior leaders, he will play at McKendree University next season.This season, he posted a team-best 240 kills to go along with 29 aces, 140 digs and 50 blocks.
STEVEN LENDY When Notre Dame coach Patrick Cole needed a big play this spring, he knew he could count on his senior outside hitter to deliver, whether offensively or defensively. The ESCC Player of the Year tied for the team lead in kills (237), led the Dons in aces (51), and was second in digs (179). “When we need that big point, our setters threw it to Stephen and he made the intelligent play with it,” Cole said. “His defense is above and beyond expectations for someone with such a highly developed offensive game.”
LERIN MATHEW Maine East coach Jon Kulesza sums up the play of his junior outside hitter this way: “He’s absolutely an offensive stud.” Mathew, a native of India, notched 336 kills and 22 aces—both numbers led the Demons—and was second on the squad with 120 digs and a .336 kill average. “We get to have him back,” Kulesza said. “He’s a special player and I can’t wait to see what he does in the offseason.”
GARRETT METZGER

The Benet three-year senior middle starter notched 201 kills and 84 blocks for the Redwings. “Garrett is an extremely dynamic middle blocker who was a quiet leader on our team,” Van Eekeen said. “He is very athletic, able to adapt to any set and was definitely dominant on our team offensively. He has been a starting middle blocker on our varsity team for three years and will be greatly missed next year.”
JORDAN MOY A three-year varsity starter for Niles West, Moy was one of the Central Suburban League’s top setters during that span. In 2014, the senior piled up 746 assists, 151 digs and 80 service points—all team highs—to go along with 27 aces. “He’s probably the secondbest setter in our conference behind Dante (Chakrevorti of New Trier),” said Roche. “He >> see all-area | page 15

lake geneva
Tough gem The Highlands at Grand Geneva has difficulty at every turn We enjoyed the Brute at Grand Geneva so much last year,we decided to take the two hour trip back taylor’s take to Lake Geneva by scott taylor this year to review the Grand Geneva’s other course, the Highlands. The Highlands is a slightly cheaper option than the Brute, as top costs are $139, but it doesn’t offer the large bunkers or huge elevation changes the Brute does. However, it does offer a scenic trip around the ski hills and it isn’t the easiest course to play. Our trip to the Highlands wasn’t the luckiest of ventures as the closer we got to the course, the harder it seemed to rain. In fact, it rained the first 12 or so holes that we played, making the course play that much harder with the thick rough. It also made the greens fairly slow and hard to judge. My guess is they are much faster when dry. A couple qualities I liked most about the course were the tough pin placements and
tricky greens. Nearly every pin placement was in the corner or side of a green, not far away from the rough. I don’t recall one hole where the pin was in the center. This made it feel more like a professional course, as did the tricky greens. At many golf courses, I find it easy to read greens. The slopes are rather obvious most of the time. That isn’t the case here. Maybe it was because of the rain, but I had a hard time reading the greens. On one long putt, my ball broke 10 feet right and I played it straight up. Mark Gregory and I both looked at the putt from multiple angles after and we couldn’t see that break. This gave me a real feel of how well the pros can read the smallest of breakpoints in a green. As expected, the course was well maintained as it is about to hit its peak season.The staff, even in the rain, was again friendly. The fairways are pretty spacious for the most part, although there are a few tight holes. There are a lot of tough doglegs, where there is a bunch of trouble if you unsuccessfully cut off the dogleg. I found the greens to

The Highlands at Lake Geneva offers up a lot of hilly terrain.
be smaller than average, which may be disagreeable and could be because of the tough pin locations. The course was quite short from the regular tees, playing at just 5,675 yards, although it was a par-71. This is quite different from the Brute, which played at 6,554 yards. Even the championship tees at the Highlands were barely longer than the whites at the Brute, playing at 6,659. As mentioned earlier though, despite the short length, the course was still tricky. There was also a lot of rolling terrain on the fairways, making it have a true Scottish links feel to it. The course opens with
perhaps the largest elevation change tee to green on the course. The second hole is a slight dogleg par-5 that is reachable in two for some. After a few more twists and turns, my favorite hole comes up. That is the par-3 seventh hole, which is Mark’s least favorite hole. It is an elevated hole shooting a little down at the green. The green is on a steep hill. Mark missed the green left and was down the hill and it took him a few shots to get it back to the green. You don’t see holes like that often. The back nine starts with a short par-4 where you have to play your second shot uphill to the green. The 11th hole is the last par-5 and it features a double
dogleg. Overall I think the back nine plays a little straighter, but there still are some less pronounced doglegs. After a short par-3 over a creek on 17, the 18th is wide open with a dogleg left. Overall, we found the course challenging and fun to play. It would have been more enjoyable had the weather cooperated, which made it harder to review. Still, it was a course well worth the ride. If I had to choose between the courses, I would play the Brute, but both courses should be played by a golfer who is willing to take some golf trips. A couple nights away to play both courses would be a great idea.
Sports >> all-area, from page 13 doesn’t get enough credit being in that setter position.”
CHRIS PAIGE The Plainfield North libero had 203 digs, an 89 percent dig percentage and a 2.72 passer rating. “ C h r i s is the best l i b e r o / defensive specialist I have ever c o a c h e d ,” Plainfield North coach Kevin Vesper said. “It is truly remarkable the volleyballs this kid digs. Perhaps most importantly, his leadership on the court is unmatched. I would argue that Chris Paige is one of the best if not the best back row player in the state.”
JOHN PALUCKI Maine South’s senior outside hitter and twin brother of Hawks basketball star, Andrew Palucki, John was a star in his own right for coach Gary Granell’s club. He was a force offensively with 224 kills and defensively with 160 digs, both numbers leading the team. “John has been very steady for us on the outside,” Granell said. “He puts up a big block and he is very effective at hitting around and through opposing blockers. He is our go-to-guy when we need to put the ball away.”
BLAKE REARDON Reardon, a sophomore from JCA tallied 357 kills, 125 digs, 20 aces and 30 blocks on the year, while being named to the East Suburban Catholic AllC o n fe r e n c e team.
ALEJANDRO ROBLES Senior led Plainfield North in kills with 211 and added 32 blocks and 104 digs for regional champs. “I played Alejandro in all three front row positions this year (mostly due to team i n j u r i e s ) ,” Vesper stated. “He also plays all-around and is a good back row passer. Lastly, he just committed to Lincoln College with a scholarship.”
RYAN ROYCROFT
A Minooka senior, the 6-foot, 5-inch Perinar posted 360 kills, 44 blocks, 55 aces, 12 assists and 47 digs.
Notre Dame coach Patrick Cole pointed to Roycroft’s hard work during the off-season as the reason Roycroft, a senior, elevated his game and became one of the ESCC’s best outside hitters. Roycroft tied teammate Steven Lendy for most kills with 237 and added 52 blocks. “Ryan really stepped up,” Cole said.“He had that power element to his game last year, but he was very raw. He became a student of the game and started to understand when to apply power and when to apply finesse to his shots.”
NOAH RANDALL
TOM SARVER
Randall led Painfield Central to the sectional final, dishing out 1,034 a s s i s t s , a school record, along with 64 aces. “Noah has been the foundation of our offense throughout the entirety of the season,” Hurlburt said. “He is one of the more consistent setters that I’ve seen at his age level. His assists helped lead the Wildcats to an impressive season as he ran a 5-1 offense as a junior.”
Downers Grove North’s leader, Sarver tallied 257 kills on the year. “He is an all-conference selection, team captain and kill leader with 257 total kills, for a team that was competitive with every team in the area,” Downers North coach Mark Wasik said.“He would have been a starting OH for any team that we played this year.”
MITCH PERNIAR
MIKE SCHMITT Schmitt was a key cog this year for the defending state champs, totaling 306 kills, 71 blocks, 134 digs and 23 aces. >> see all-area | page 16

He leads from the front with his game play and is a leader on the court for our team. He is leaving his mark on this program not only as DGS volleyball player that younger players look up to but also as an outstanding student.”
WILL TISCHLER The Downers South junior
posted 271 kills, 61 blocks, 155 digs and 34 aces. “Will’s skill set has increased tremendously this year,” Steuer said. “He has focused on what we asked of him as player and it has shown throughout the entire season.Week by week he continues to improve and has great potential. Will has become more involved in our offense this year along with Mike Schmitt. He will continue to get better with his all around game, which can make him a top player.” Mark Gregory and Mike Sandrolini contributed
