The interview sans Hollywood

N

o doubt you know the movie “The Interview” has disturbed the all-powerful leader of North Korea. I’d like to talk about the interview in the lowercase sense — if you happen to find me gunned down outside The Mean Wiener one day, there’s been an international misunderstanding. The first time I was ever interviewed, I was told the meaning of the word interview. Larry Boyle at Deerfield Academy in Massachusetts sat down with me, a ninth-grader. The admissions officer also taught Latin; he explained how “inter” emerged from the dead language, meaning “between,” and that an interview was really a discussion between two people — as opposed to a monologue. I had no idea then how important interviews would become in my life. Not just to get a job — in many ways, interviews are my job. Most stories I write are dependent on them. I remember the most annoying interview of all. It came early, at my first job. I met with a man who had earned an exalted title — I believe it was Illinois Punster of the Year or something similar. Anyway, during the hour-long interview, he spoke in puns. I left with a massive headache. I’ve been fortunate that, out of the thousands of interviews I’ve conducted, 99 percent of the people like to talk. After all, if they say little, it’s hard to gather material for a story. Then again, some go overboard; I remember a Lake County political candidate who answered my opening question for more than half an hour. Longwindedness served her well; she won the election handily.

in linens, furniture and more.

I bring up interviews because, in many ways, they are the lifeblood of this newspaper. Aside from today’s column, just about every story inside involves an interview. The best ones are in person, where a writer can witness facial expressions and describe attire. We need to ask the right questions — I’ve always found it helps to ask what challenges people have overcome and what separates them from others in their field — to elicit compelling answers, which helps us write the best stories. Our Sunday Breakfast feature (modeled after Lunch With The FT, a weekend staple in the Financial Times) is the one piece in The North Shore Weekend solely dependent on the interview. chicago Our writer is not watching a game or reviewing a 773 404 2020 play in addition to gathering a few quotes; the interview is the entire story. Luckily, we have Simon Murray, a Jersey boy transplanted to the Midwest, who writes many Sunday Breakfasts with flair. Last week, in a first for the feature, he shared a1.3.15 BSM NSW Bright and Beauty.indd bottle of wine and shots with his subject. In this issue, with Winnetka native Lizzie Cross, he was a little more subdued, meeting at Starbucks. But the results from both interviews are the same: engaging stories

Enjoy the weekend.

Driving off a cliff

DUIs on the North Shore are expensive — and the consequences are numbing ■

Wilmette has seen a drop in DUI arrests over the years, but those charged face many thousands of dollars in costs. photography by jim prisching

by simon murray

Being arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol (DUI) is a pricey proposition on the North Shore. And the consequences can last a lifetime. It’s a wife, a husband, a son, daughter, or friend in the North Shore who’s getting arrested. Anyone from high-level executives to low-level assistants can be charged. When a driver is pulled over by the police with a .08 blood-alcohol concentration or above, the first cost can be the impoundment of his or her vehicle, which can range from $500 to $3,000, depending on which department from Lake Bluff to Evanston is making the arrest. After that initial charge, the average cost of a DUI — including fines, court charges, legal fees, and insurance hikes — can near $20,000, especially when considering lost time at work. “If you’re insured with XYZ insurance company and they do an audit on your driving record and they find that you have a DUI, they may drop you — period,” says Rick Mackin of Dimond Bros. Insurance in Illinois. Other insurance firms will simply add surcharges, which can produce a 50 percent to 70 percent hike in fees. “And that sticks with you for a good seven years,” he notes. First-time offenders can also expect alcohol education classes — which range from 10 hours over a few sessions to 28 days at an in-patient program — a loss of license for a minimum of 30 days, mandatory community service (if one’s blood-alcohol level is at least twice the legal limit), and court supervision with a social worker monthly (always during business hours and with a $50 fee per visit). A first-time offender may reclaim his or her license on the condition that the Secretary of State’s BAIID Division installs a Breath Alcohol Ignition Interlock Device (BAIID) in the car. To activate driving privileges, one must blow into it — similar to a Breathalyzer — when the engine starts and sometimes at intervals every 15-40 minutes while the car is running. The car will not start (or will stop

running) if alcohol is sensed, and that information is passed on to authorities. Monthly fees are paid to the Secretary of State for installation and rental while the device is in the vehicle. In the era of interconnectivity and of easy-tosearch-for driving records, having a DUI can be visible on one’s driving record and criminal record — many times for life. Attorney Charlie Beach likes to tell a story about one of his former clients, an individual who had just recently been arrested for driving under the influence in Illinois. Months later, his client was traveling with a team of executives to Canada. They were onboard a private airplane, and after it landed they passed through border patrol; that is, except for Beach’s client. Instead, that person was barred from entering the country. (Canada does not permit visitors with records of DUI).

“There’s also time you spend dealing with it — and the mark on your record for the rest of your life.” | Charlie Beach “A lot of people call me who are under the impression that they can expunge or seal a DUI plea of guilty — and they cannot,” says Beach, chair of the Traffic Law Committee for the Chicago Bar who has been defending North Shore clients since 1996. By law, a DUI will not appear on one’s driving record after dismissal . . . but it does remain in private databases. Because of that, a DUI is tracked forever. Adds Beach, “It will always be visible to individuals who have access to it.” Private databases like Equifax or LexisNexis accumulate such offenses. This means that many people who have never committed a crime in their lifetime — but who have a DUI in their past — are suddenly caught in a Catch-22 when sitting down to a job application. Asked if you have a criminal record, do you lie and say no, and risk your potential employer DUI >> page 13

Robert Smith and Gov. Pat Quinn

Big grants nabbed

Three North Shore nonprofits received hefty grants recently. The Winnetka Park District was awarded a $398,500 grant from the Illinois Department of Natural Resources Open Space Lands Acquisition and Development Grants Program. It is a matching fund grant for the development of Hubbard Woods Park. Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn made the announcement at a press conference at the Cheney Mansion in Oak Park, which was attended by Winnetka Park District Executive Director Robert Smith. Quinn announced $26 million in funding to help communities across the state renovate existing parks and to purchase land for new parks. “We are honored to be among those parks and recreation agencies recognized,” said Smith. “It is a positive way to start out 2015.” The Lake Bluff Park District and Lake County Forest Preserve District also received large grants. Lake Bluff Park District’s grant was $400,000; the Lake County Forest Preserve District received $263,700.

Baytree Bank sold

The Federal Savings Bank (TFSB), one of the largest privately held banks focused on residential home lending in America, entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Baytree National Bank & Trust Company in Lake Forest. The deal was announced Monday. With $90 million in assets, Baytree specializes in personal and commercial banking services. Said Steve Calk, chairman and CEO of The Federal Savings Bank, “We are thrilled to work with a bank that has established deep roots in the community. With the acquisition, Calk says that TFSB is looking to hire approximately 50 additional employees as the bank continues to expand in the North Shore. John Calk, vice chairman and co-owner of TFSB, along with his wife and six children, are long-term residents of Lake Forest. John also is founder and president of East Lake Academy, a private Roman Catholic school in Lake Forest. TFSB’s acquisition of Baytree is subject to regulatory approval and is expected to close before the end of the first quarter of 2015.

Brutal weather hits area

The cold snap this week after a relatively mild winter was bracing news for North Shore residents. Glencoe announced that Village Hall was available as a warming center for any resident “who may need relief from the below-freezing temperatures and wind chills” which exceeded 20 below zero. The Winter Club in Lake Forest canceled outdoor hockey practices. The cold was compounded by a few inches of snow on Tuesday. The frigid air pounded residents trying to shovel driveways.

social media

Couple is drawn to visual arts Listening Tony: I’m a big Bob Dylan fan, so I listen to everything he makes. Judy: I like a lot of electronic music, so I’ve been listening to Afrojack and Mustardpimp. Watching Tony: We’re starting to go through “The Killing,” but I’m getting annoyed with the red herrings. We can only have one show at a time. Judy: We saw “Boyhood,” and that was beautiful — it kind of stays with you for a while. Following Tony: I follow the horrendous news about the Middle East in The New York Times. I listen to two podcasts: “Here’s the Thing,” where Ale Baldwin interviews people, and I also listen to “WTF,” a podcast mostly about comediennes. That’s the only unusual thing that I follow. Judy: Locally, the upcoming art fairs in Chicago and news on campus — I don’t pay much attention to social media. My world’s a little small.

Tony Tasset

by katie rose mceneely

Tony Tasset is a visual artist and a professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago; Judy Ledgerwood, his wife, is also a visual artist and the director of graduate studies in art theory and practice at Northwestern University. The two were guests at Ragdale’s Novel Affair in 2014 and have been invited to return for residencies.

Reading Tony: I just finished reading this book called “Farmers and Pirates” by Dave Hickey, who’s a kind of art critic. There’s a book I really like to recommend called “Let’s Talk About Love: A Journey to the End of Taste.” It’s about Celine Dion, and the author asks why he dislikes her — why is she so awful to him. It questions taste and where taste comes from. Judy: I just finished “Butter, Bones, and Blood,” and right now I’m reading “The Goldfinch.” I’m really enjoying it.

Activity Tony: I’m working on a big public commission for Kansas City, Missouri. It’s in front of a federal building. It’s a piece called “The Pursuit of Happiness,” and it’s going to be about 40 feet tall; it’s going to be about five spheres on top of each other. From a sad face at the bottom, and it goes up into the top sphere, a smiley face in colors that range from blue to yellow. Judy: I just finished a big commission for a new building that’s going up on the campus at Northwestern University in Qatar. It’s for Sheikha Moza bint Nasser Al Missned, probably the most powerful woman in the art world right now, and I was really honored to be asked to make this painting for her. I’m also working on a commission for the American embassy in Laos. It’s a huge painting and I’m deep in the middle of that — and I also have this billboard project: six big billboards scattered throughout the city, projects that were inspired by a visit to Captiva Island in Florida. I stayed at Robert Rauschenberg’s house, one of the most important pop artists of the 20th century. (The billboards debuted at Expo Chicago in 2014.) Eating Tony: I’m trying not to eat bread. I start a diet about every morning, and it goes to hell at about 5 p.m. We just

went to Dusek’s in Chicago, and we’re finally going to go to Alinea. I’m really excited about that. Judy: Yogurt and berries and lots of chicken — pretty much whatever Tony cooks.

What is your favorite mistake? Tony: Some of my artwork has a lot of accidents in it — I don’t know if they’re mistakes, but they’re things I don’t plan. Sometimes you can embrace it.

Fixer keeps companies from going underwater ■ by bob gariano Working out of his offices in Lake Forest’s Market Square, Tom O’Mara applies his more than four decades of business experience to helping businesses that need resuscitation. Private equity investors, large public companies, and family-owned businesses hire O’Mara to help them when they are in trouble. “Businesses which are underperforming often feel like they are riding a raft in a whitewater canyon. Troubles come up suddenly, the walls are steep, and there is a sense of being swept along helplessly by the market,” O’Mara says. “In these situations, an experienced guide can be a big help if the chairman or CEO is to stay off the rocks. “That guiding hand is what we bring to the situation. I have been involved with about 60 different turnarounds in my career, so many of the issues we face are similar to ones I have already seen before.” How does a person become a business

fixer? O’Mara started developing his intervention skills at Allegheny College, where he was one of the school’s first graduates with full majors in both economics and mathematics. After graduation, he was recruited into the executive office at U.S. Steel as an analyst. The company recognized his potential and sent him to Carnegie Mellon University (then Carnegie Tech) for the interdisciplinary graduate program in the behavioral sciences and industrial administration. One of his professors was psychologist Herb Simon, who won a Nobel Prize in economics in 1978. Another, Franco Modigliani, won the prize in 1985. Other pioneers on the faculty include Nobel Laureates Merton Miller and Robert Lucas. And Dick Cyert, who would later become the university’s president, taught O’Mara a course on the behavior of firms in transition. “We soon learned that all business problems require multifunctional strategies involving analytics and dataflow, technology deployment, financing and cash flow

having access to a private database? Or do you say yes, and try to explain to the interviewer how one night led to a terrible mistake, with the knowledge the job could easily be lost because of the admission? To keep the roads safe for all drivers, the Lake County Sherriff’s Department, along with the Highland Park Police Department, have received extra grant funding the past two years from the state of Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT). “The state of Illinois pays the force, which allows additional officers to be paid time and a half to specifically look for impaired driving, seatbelt violations, and excessive speeding,” says Staff Sergeant Chris O’Neill with the Highland Park Police Department. In Illinois, 70 percent of fatal crashes involving alcohol are between midnight and 3 a.m., so the officer’s patrol from 11 p.m. until 4 a.m. “That’s when there’s the greatest risk,” says O’Neill. “We make a lot of stops based on traffic violations so we have contact with the driver to put us in a position to see if there’s any impairment.” Crashes due to driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs have been reduced statewide, but Wilmette’s decrease over the past few decades has been dramatic. For a three-year period between 1995-97, more than 650 vehicular crashes were due to DUI. A decade later — during another three-year period —there were only 36. The past five years have seen an average of 70 drivers arrested each year for DUIs in Wilmette; in 2014, that number dropped to 59. “That’s mainly due to recent legislation

for increasing penalties,” for crimes of this nature, notes Brain M. King, Wilmette’s chief of police. Championed by the Alliance Against Intoxicated Motorists, such legislation includes a law enforcing an additional fee of $50 to be paid by all drivers who are found guilty (or are granted supervision as a result of driving under the influence) and a bill that forces any impaired driver to serve at least 85 percent of his or her sentence if they have dramatically injured another person. According to the 2014 Illinois DUI Fact Book, 86 percent of all drivers arrested for DUI are first offenders. Barring injury or death, “the first DUI for a professional is money, inconvenience, time, and embarrassment,” says Beach. With many print and online news sites reporting North Shore DUIs — and with a number of police departments offering online access themselves to arrests — the embarrassment is growing. Beach says he personally has a database of everyone that has been arrested for a DUI in Cook County. He can look back and search through the past 15 years, uncovering skeletons in the closets of even the most straight-laced professionals. With DUI cases, the past comes back to haunt you. Even former President George W. Bush needed to get a special waiver to enter Canada because of a 1976 drunken-driving offense in Maine — and the revelation of the arrest late in the campaign nearly cost him the 2000 election. Says Beach, “DUIs are a lot of money. But there’s also time you spend dealing with it — and the mark on your record for the rest of your life.” ■

maneuvers, as well as human commitment and emotional insight all in an intense environment of uncertainty,” O’Mara says. “Too many seemingly good strategies miss because they do not treat all of these dimensions.” After graduate school, IBM asked O’Mara to install training centers or “homesteads” for early information systems customers to train their executives. This coordinated systems approach was useful in his later consulting work. Increasingly, O’Mara was hired to lead the most difficult turnaround efforts. O’Mara went to Denver to help guide Samsonite through its systems restructuring. Private equity firms hired O’Mara to help them fix their investments in businesses that were faltering. His client list became a who’s who, especially for people who owned businesses that were faced with liquidation. But it has never been work for the faint of heart. “It is a lonely job to run a company,

especially one in trouble,” O’Mara says. “I have grown up being a trusted counselor to owners and CEOs. Jack Welch once said that the most common sensation when he visited a plant was the smell of fresh paint. The boss has to get under the surface to see and attack the real problems. We help our clients get past the facade and at the real issues.” O’Mara has built a successful consulting business (omarapartners.com) helping struggling businesses regain their footing and profitability in an uncertain and hazardous world. Today he continues his work of returning troubled companies to profitability, while finding time to serve on the boards of technology startups. As a director, the coaching role is one that he relishes. “My career and business have been built around helping other business leaders be successful. We take great pride in being a whitewater guide to help companies get through the rapids.” Main Street columnist Bob Gariano can be reached at bob@northshoreweekend.com. ■

Arc-istry

Lake Forest's Karras launches picture-perfect shots to become a mega hit at Tosh Tournament ■ by kevin reiterman sports@northshoreweekend.com There’s a film coming out at the end of 2015, and Noah Karras can hardly contain himself. A huge Star Wars Trilogy fan, the Lake Forest High School senior is counting the days, minutes and nanoseconds before its release. He can’t wait to fully immerse himself in “Star Wars: The Force Awakens”. A few days ago, while wearing jersey No. 15 for the Scouts and playing in the championship game of the 41st Annual Jack Tosh Holiday Basketball Classic in Elmhurst, Karras had one of those “galactical” experiences. He found himself in three-point heaven — and he didn’t want to leave. You should have seen the smile on his face, when York High School’s public announcer went public with the all-tournament team and the list included the name Noah Karras. The 6-foot-4 senior guard won’t lie. His goals in the five-game set were two-fold: win the team title and earn all-tourney honors. “After the first two games against Nazareth and Matea Valley, that looked pretty iffy for me,” said Karras, who tallied a grand total of 11 points in those two wins. “But I didn’t lose confidence.” Instead, in Game Three, Game Four and Game Five, Karras played like it was a Game Seven. He became an offensive force. Go to your DVR and fast-forward to the title game held on New Year’s Eve, when the now 14-0 Scouts defeated a heralded and previously unbeaten Riverside-Brookfield team 69-42. Talk about ushering in the New Year with flair. Karras has had some big moments on the court in the past — his two dagger threepointers against Zion-Benton last year with the home fans crowding him in the corner definitely comes to mind — but this game counts as his grand awakening. It was his breakout game. In a 40-second span late in the first quarter, Karras took three perfectly placed passes from senior guard Jack Traynor and turned the gym into Noah’s arc. Traynor, back from a meniscus injury, couldn’t get the ball out of his hands fast enough. “When Noah gets like that, you just have to keep getting the ball to him,” Traynor said. “He’s an awesome shooter.” “This is what Noah is capable of doing,” said LF head coach Phil LaScala. For the game, Karras was 5-for-8 from Trifecta Ville. And all five shots hit nothing but white nylon. Iron, not required. Hey, the kid loves his trilogies. Karras, who by the way also is a war movie buff (especially the old black and white versions), capped off the tournament averaging 13.6 points per game. He shot 83 percent from the foul line and 50 percent from the three-point line (15-for-30). Shooting like that is nothing new for Karras. As one of the first players off the bench last winter, he led the team in threes with a 50 percent success rate: 31-for-61. And then, there was that team camp game last summer at University of IllinoisChicago. The Scouts were pitted against Simeon, and Karras took the game into his own hands. Simeon was sitting in a 2-3 zone, and

Karras went kaboom. He drained 13 threepointers, including 11 in the second half. “I got a (scholarship) offer from UIC after that game,” said Karras. His shooting skills just didn’t come to him overnight. According to LF assistant Austin Scott, he is a true “gym rat.” Taking extra shots before and after every practice — and any time in between — is commonplace with Karras. “His success is a direct result of the hard work that he puts in,” said Scott, a former lights-out shooter and all-state guard at Lake Zurich High School who went on to play Division III basketball for WisconsinLaCrosse. “He’s earning everything that he gets.” Scott and Karras have been squaring off in a three-point shooting game called Waterfall for a couple of years. “Last year, he never beat me,” said Scott. This year? “It’s been a different story.” Playing club basketball for coach Michael Weinstein and Fundamental U also has served him well. “That’s where my game escalated,” said Karras, who is averaging 12.4 points per game this season after scoring 6.0 points per game as a junior. “That’s when it took off.” Like LaScala and Scott, Weinstein raves about his work ethic and coachability. “He wasn’t really a good shooter when he first came to us,” said Weinstein. “But he’s put in the work and the time. He’s done the reps. He now

has a big-time pretty shot. You don’t get a shot to look like that if you don’t do drill after drill after drill. Like any great golfer and baseball pitcher, you have to keep your mechanics clean. And he’s done that. He’s great off the dribble. He’s great on the catch and shoot. “And he one of the nicest kids that you will ever meet,” the coach added. “He wants to be coached. He wants to be pushed.” Weinstein also doesn’t hold back when it comes to Karras. “He’s a Division I shooter right now,” Weinstein said. “And he’s athletic enough to be a Division I player. “But Noah has picked the (Division III) University of Chicago,” said Weinstein. “He loves the school. Loves the academics. He feels blessed. I think he’s picked a place where he can be outstanding.” Karras easily could have been a two- or three-sport athlete at LFHS. As a freshman, he was considered an upand-coming wide receiver. In fact, Karras was moved up to the varsity for the playoffs. But there was one little problem with the pigskin. It took him away from basketball. “I didn’t like not going to open gyms in the fall,” said Karras. “I still loved football, but I just thought that playing year-round basketball would benefit me more.” Seeing him run routes and admiring his athleticism, LFHS head football coach Chuck Spagnoli no doubt had big plans for

Karras. The two of them had a friendly chat in the coach’s office. “Telling him that I wasn’t going to play football — that was a tough conversation,” said Karras. “I really like Coach Spagnoli. He’s an inspiring guy.” Karras also has been smitten by professional soccer — European style. Favorite team: Manchester City FC. Favorite player: Manchester City FC midfielder Yaya Toure. Playing FIFA video games has become one of his main diversions. Hanging out with the family is another one. His dad, Michael, might be his biggest fan. He’s a former point guard at Lake Forest Academy. Or, it could be his mother, Jennifer. Inspiring others is one of her things. “She’s always writing down quotes and giving them to me,” said Noah, who has two younger sisters with equally cool first names (Reese and Blythe). “Here’s one: ‘An attitude of gratitude brings opportunities.‘ And, ‘You get out of life what you put into it.’ ” And then, there’s dear ol’ granddad: Sheldon Karras. He’s a big fan of University of Illinois basketball. But even more, he’s all things Noah Karras. “I pretty much talk to my grandfather after every game,” the grandson said. “He especially wants to talk to me if I’ve had an off game.” No doubt, they had a fun conversation on New Year’s Eve. ■

Ringing in the new year Boudreaux earns MVP honors (again) at York Tournament

■ by kevin reiterman sports@northshoreweekend.com Lake Forest High School’s Evan Boudreaux fares pretty well on most basketball courts. But his favorite home away from home just might be the gyms at York High School in Elmhurst. This is where he turns into Superman. “I have some great memories here,” said the 6-foot-8 Boudreaux, following his team’s 69-42 win over previously undefeated Riverside-Brookfield in the championship game of the Jack Tosh Holiday Classic on New Year’s Eve. Boudreaux, who wears cape (jersey) No. 12, put 29 points and 14 rebounds in the scorebook against R-B. The LF senior finished the five-game set with 145 points (29.0) and 69 rebounds (13.8). He shot 61 percent from the field, while he made 40 of 46 foul shots, including 17 straight to finish to the tourney. Boudreaux earned tourney MVP honors for the second year in a row. Last winter, he helped the Scouts to the tourney title at York by averaging 22 points and 10.4 rebounds per game. “He’s a man out there,” said Lake Forest head coach Phil LaScala. “He competes on every possession.” Boudreaux, a Dartmouth recruit, is a big reason why the Scouts have started the season 14-0. For the season, he’s

averaging 25 points and 12.5 rebounds per game. He’s shooting 59 percent from the field and 79 percent from the foul line. It’s hard to pick his best game of the tourney. But maybe, it was this one. In a 65-60 come-from-behind win over Matea Valley on Dec. 27, he finished with 38 points and 15 rebounds. But, at the moment, what really excites Boudreaux is the way the Scouts, who were scheduled to play an North Suburban Conference Lake game at Warren on Jan. 6, are playing on the defensive end. “Defense is our calling card,” he said.

Dent and sophomore Justin McMahon definitely were bright spots at the guard position during Traynor’s absence.

• Jack Traynor may not be putting up huge numbers at the moment. But the LF senior guard, a three-year varsity player, is a difference maker with his leadership and defensive toughness. After missing the first seven games of the season with a meniscus injury, which he sustained in a Class 6A state quarterfinal game against Nazareth Academy on Nov. 15, Traynor made his first start of the season on Dec. 29 against Highland Park. In the title game, Traynor was credited with a seasonhigh six assists. Fellow senior Scott Dent, who continues to start at point guard, had four assists against Riverside-Brookfield. He had 20 assists in the five games.

• Senior Tommy Trkla and junior Lorenzo Edwards are two of LF’s unsung heroes. Trkla had six points and four rebounds in the title game. His best moment came midway through the fourth quarter, when he fought — and fought some more — for a loose ball. Mad scrambles on the floor always are entertaining. Edwards, meanwhile, played extremely well coming off the bench. He averaged 5.8 points and 4.8 rebounds in the five-game set.

• And there also was another sighting at the championship game. Senior Steven Vogrich dressed for the first time since coming down with mononucleosis in early December. “The doctor cleared him to play this morning (Dec. 31),” said LaScala. “It’s awesome to have him back. He’s a big part of our team.” The 6-7 Vogrich made it into the game in the final moments and scored the final two points of the game.

• There are more interesting games on LF’s schedule. The Scouts will host Niles Notre Dame on Jan. 9 and powerhouse Stevenson on Jan. 15. They will take on Highland Park in the City-Suburban Shootout at Niles West on Feb. 21. ■

THE NORTH SHORE WEEKEND

Jordan Krawitz (13 points, 5 rebounds) and Hallvard Lundevall (12 points, 4 rebounds). In a 60-34 victory over Elk Grove on Dec. 27, the Giants were paced by Sachs (15 points, 4 assists), Luke Norcia (11 points, 4 assists, 3 steals) and Jacob Iden (10 points, 3 assists). Norcia’s biggest game of the tournament came in a 51-43 quarterfinal loss to Lake Forest. The senior guard pumped in four three-pointers and led HP with 19 points. Sachs added 13 points. The Giants, who will travel to Niles North on Jan. 9 (7:30 p.m.), capped off the tourney with a 31-27 victory over Naperville North. Sachs had seven points. Loyola Academy: A desert dandy. Loyola Academy defeated the No. 1 team in the state of Arizona over the holiday break. Highlighted by Michael Mangan (16 points, 4 assists, 3 rebounds and 6-for-6 free-throw shooting) and Brandon Danowski (17 points), the Ramblers topped Desert Vista of Phoenix 52-51 on Dec. 30 at the Visit Mesa Basketball Challenge. Mangan put LA ahead for good, when he hit two free throws with 13 seconds left to play. Ramar Evans tallied seven points and five rebounds, while Peter Poggioli added six points and six rebounds. Mark Dowdle also had six points. LA, which was scheduled to play St. Laurence on Jan. 6, finished the four-game set 3-1 to improve its overall mark to 9-4. On Dec. 27, the Ramblers dropped a 65-52 decision to Chaparral. Danowski had 11 points. Mangan finished with 10. A day later, they defeated Tempe 66-44. Danowski went 6-for-6 from beyond the threepoint line and ended up with 24 points. Poggioli (13 points) and Mangan (10) also finished in double figures. And in the tourney finale on Dec. 31, Danowski and Mangan scored 14 points apiece in a 42-28 victory over Sunnyslope.

She is the team’s top threepoint shooter: 35-for-79 (44 percent). Lyon, who is one of NU’s tri-captains, was honorable mention all-Big Ten (coaches and media) during the 2013-14 season. She also was the Big Ten Freshman of the Year (coaches and media) two seasons ago. Men’s Basketball

Spring Hill College: Ex-Loyola Academy stars James Clarke and Jack Morrissey have made quick transitions to the college game. Clarke has started 10 of 11 games for NCAA Division II Spring Hill and is averaging 7.7 points per game.

The New Trier grad is leading the team in rebounds (6.7), while he’s shooting a team-best 55 percent from the field. He had 20 points in Dartmouth’s latest victory, a 76-59 victory at Bryant on Dec. 31. Next year, Boehm will team up with Lake Forest High School star Evan Boudreaux. ■

Off the (un) beaten track Prospect ends New Trier’s 14-game win streak in tourney final ■ by kevin reiterman sports@northshoreweekend.com Coming from the North Shore, there’s no quick and easy way to get to Dundee-Crown High School to play in the annual Charger Classic Christmas Tournament. Tucked away in a slightly hard-to-find residential area in Carpentersville — 1500 Kings Road — the route there is filled with curves, turns and tight traffic spots. With apologies to The Beatles, it’s a long and winding road. New Trier’s vaunted girls basketball team was looking to stay the course and keep its undefeated record intact at Dundee-Crown. After winning their first three games in this 16-team tourney in rather convincing fashion, the Trevians met an equally hot team — head on. The title game on Dec. 30 was a neon lighter: 14-0 New Trier (14-0) vs. 12-0 Prospect. Something, as they say, had to give. In a game which pretty much went down to the wire, the Knights, who lost to New Trier 54-35 in last year’s championship, locked up a 51-46 victory by scoring eight of the game’s final 10 points. Prospect’s Haley Will and Taylor Will went 6-for-6 from the foul line in the final 21 seconds. “We’ll learn from this,” said NT head coach Teri Rodgers. “Our offense was not at its best tonight,” she added. “We

weren’t patient. We got a little flustered. At times, we got in too much of a hurry.” New Trier held the upper hand for most of the game, leading by six points, 36-30, after three quarters. Three Trevians earned all-tournament honors: Jeannie Boehm, Haley Greer and Kathryn Pedi. All three are juniors. Boehm finished the title game with 20 points, 15 rebounds and four blocks. The 6-foot-3 junior center averaged 20.3 points and 11.8 rebounds in the four-game set. She had seven blocks in a Game One win over Dundee-Crown 74-44. In a Round Two win over Burlington Central 62-41, Boehm had 18 points, 11 rebounds and three assists. Pedi had seven points against Prospect. Her biggest

bucket came with 1:05 left, when she used a quick release to sink a 17-footer on top to put NT ahead by one point, 44-43. Pedi averaged just over 10 points per game in the tournament. Her best outing came in NT’s 67-45 semifinal win over Buffalo Grove. She finished that game with 15 points, five rebounds and five assists. Greer reached double figures in the first three games, tallying 10 against BG, 11 against Burlington Central and 13 against Dundee-Crown. She had a team-high five assists against BG. Prospect’s star player was Taylor Will. She finished the championship game with 21 points, which pushed her over the 1,500-point plateau for her career. “She’s a great leader out there,” said Rodgers. “We put out best defenders on her. She beat our best.” ■

26 | Sunday breakfast Comedy ideas always seem to Cross her mind ■ by simon murray It’s only a minute or so into my conversation with sketch comedy writer and producer Lizzie Cross, and already we’re acting out a scene. In it, Cross is sitting down to an eggs benedict and a Bloody Mary or black coffee — we haven’t quite worked out if this is business casual or professional yet — and I haven’t managed to do the unthinkable: Missing our allotted breakfast date because my Metra train malfunctioned halfway to Evanston. Like I said, we’re using our imaginations here. Reality is only slightly less interesting. Through texting, we figure out a makeup time, which finds us sitting down to a bare table at a Starbucks in Evanston, at night, a few blocks away from the Davis stop on Sherman Avenue. It’s a large, spacious Starbucks — with exposed brick, hardwood floors, and a Roast Curve depicting the different coffee flavors from “blonde” to “dark.” If Cross’s personality were to fall somewhere on this java line graph, she would surely be the Veranda Blend, which is described as being “mellow and flavorful with a nice softness.” “Are you doing a job interview?” asks the woman next to us. Not quite. We’re talking about this Sunday at 3 p.m., where the audience at Stage 773 will see the wacky antics of Cross’s sketch comedy troupe “It’s Not Us, It’s You,” as they take them on a “journey through work life and relationships in Chicago” during the 14th annual Chicago Sketch Comedy Festival. Cross, a Winnetka native, says she came at comedy from a theatrical perspective. “I always loved being on stage, and so as a kid I did musical theater, ballet — I did everything,” she says. At New Trier High School she started doing improv, mostly because it was another performance opportunity. By the time she moved back to Chicago, in 2011, she was working with the Second City writing program, where she met her current writing partner (and co-producer) Seth Zimmerman. “It’s Not Us, It’s You” is the second brainchild of the pair. (Their first, “Go

That performance is the longest-running Both explore the myriad social gaffes and awk- show in Chicago and draws upon such avantward interactions that typically garde movements like Dada, Surrealism, befall us in daily life, includand the work of the original Italian ing crushing breakups, Futurists.

run of the house. Another scene that Cross and Zimmerman have added specifically for this show involves a couple confronting their loud, upstairs neighbor, which was mined specifically from Zimmerman’s living situation. Cross says the partners get together for an hour and a half each week at a Starbucks close to their apartments and either write something together or bring in something for the other to work off of. Instead of warming up to get into the creative mindset, they just catch up: taking 10 minutes or so to talk about what they’ve been up to. “That’s because we’re friends,” notes Cross, “It’s something you do. But it does help get things going and makes everything relaxed. “We have a good balance between the two of us,” she continues. “He makes a lot of great jokes and has a lot of creative thoughts, and comes up with good perspectives. And I’m a lot more theatrical. I’ll be like, ‘No, we need to cut this; we need to serve this scene.’ Or, like, ‘We can’t stage that.’” What Cross likes to say is their performances are about 80 percent written and 20 percent improvised. And like liquor, the base material is periodically distilled or refined — in this case through improvisation. Cross, who graduated from Carlton College in Minnesota with a double major in theater and math, believes there’s creativity in everything. What she’s looking forward to most this Sunday is being part of the small comedy nexus of Chicago, as one of 168 groups that make Sketchfest the nation’s largest sketch comedy festival. “It’s an amazing exchange among artists,” she notes. “Obviously we want everyone to come see it, and we want people from outside to come see it too. But the biggest benefit, I think, is that I get to see all this other work that other people are doing in the sketch realm.” And though she gushes about “Key & Peele” and “Funny or Die” as being some of the best sketch comedy out there, right now, she’s just concerned with focusing on enjoying it. “I really like being an amateur because I feel like I can quit whenever I want; I don’t have to do it if I’m not enjoying it. And that’s amazing.” ■
