Recruitment for college sports starting earlier each year By DANNY CIAMPRONE dciamprone@shawmedia.com HINSDALE — It may seem odd to think about at first, but kids as young as 13 years old currently are being scouted and recruited to play sports in college. “There’s a misconception on many levels that recruiting starts when you’re a senior,” said Tracey Bosch of KBB Athlete Recruiting in St. Charles. “I work with athletes as young as seventh grade.” For high school athletes who dream of continuing athletics in college, the process can be long and highly competitive. Bosch used football as an example, stating that of the 1.1 million high schoolers

8NEWS BRIEFS School districts fight against cancer WILLOWBROOK — The students and staff of Westview Hills and Maercker schools will compete against District 61 (Eisenhower Jr. High and Lace School) and District 66 (Lakeview Jr. High and Prairie View) to raise funds to support cancer research at the Robert H. Lurie Cancer Center. The kickoff for this event will be today with an assembly. Students will sell a paper fist for $1 each and will have the opportunity to dedicate their fist to someone they know who has been touched by the disease. Last year, Districts 61 and 66 raised about $22,677 for this cause and now the schools have invited District 60 to join. The collection will take place next week. All three middle school/junior high principals have agreed to take on the challenge and the losing schools will have its principals wear the winning school’s spirit wear.

Sodikoff meets with Cook County board president BURR RIDGE — Burr Ridge’s Acting Village President Robert Sodikoff, Trustee Bob Grela and Village Administrator Steve Stricker met last week with Cook County Board President Toni Pre-

playing football in the U.S., there are only 3,000 Division I full-ride scholarships. Bosch said when she talks to athletes, she covers a variety of items, including one of the most important — expectations. “We have to take a serious look at what their expectations are and what their realities are,” she said. “When they go into the process, everyone wants to believe they have a Division I athlete, but only 3,000 do, as an example for football.” Seventeen-year-old Will Leach, a senior swimmer at Hinsdale Central High School, recently committed to swim for Georgetown. He has been swimming competitively since about 8 years old, but it was in his sophomore year

where he realized he wanted to continue swimming competitively in college. “Georgetown has a great academic atmosphere,” Leach said. “When I went on my visit there to meet with the coach and the team, they were so welcoming and I loved the campus and classes.” Leach did not go through a recruiting agency. Instead, he filled out questionnaires and emailed coaches at the end of his junior year to see what kind of feedback he was getting. After visiting, he knew Georgetown was for him, but admitted he took too long in the process. “My biggest advice, I guess, would be to start the process a little earlier than me,” he said.

Bosch said it’s not just an athletic resume, but gradepoint average and what major the student wants to pursue has a large effect on playing college sports. She said if you’re doing it right, student athletes will start the recruiting process as freshmen if scouts aren’t noticing them before then. “Some folks will say they don’t agree with it, that it shouldn’t happen earlier and earlier,” she said. “I think for a lot of these kids if maybe they were playing the piano or just getting in that way, it wouldn’t be as implausible to some. There are things you can identify with athletes at an early age where you know if all things keep progress-

ing as they are, that they are going to be a Division I contender.” Bosch said the three main factors for a successful recruitment include: starting early, getting good grades and watching what you do with social media. In regards to starting early, Bosch has already seen on a website the top 20 quarterbacks for the class of 2016. The trick is to get on everyone’s radar screen, get media attention and let coaches know you’re interested — which are services her company provides. “I had a coach say to me once, ‘If your local paper isn’t writing about you, I don’t need to know about you, either,’” she said.

ckwinkle and John Yonan, Cook County department of transportation and highways superintendent, to discuss issues affecting both the county and village. Among topics discussed were three issues that exist on roadways in Burr Ridge that are solely within the county’s jurisdiction, including: traffic signal inadequacies, the poor condition of 79th Street and addressing that the left turn lane at County Line and Plainfield roads is not long enough, which results in traffic congestion. In a news release, Burr Ridge officials said they looked forward to working with Cook County to resolve the outstanding issues.

Architects and confirmed by an independent architect, according to a news release. Over the next 50 years, maintaining the new school will cost taxpayers $26.7 million in maintenance and repairs. That compares with $48.7 million to maintain the two current structures in District 53, Brook Forest and Butler Junior High. For the new school, if one adds the cost of constructing a new school — $40 million, plus $9 million in interest and the 50-year maintenance/repair/ equipment cost of $26.7 million — the costs are substantial, district officials said. But, by consolidating to one building and maintaining a new structure with some shared savings with the village, that cost is substantially reduced, amounting to a savings of $28.5 million over 50 years, according to the release.

D-53 releases building cost report OAK BROOK — A recent analysis presented to the Butler District 53 Board of Education determined it would cost less to build a new school and maintain it over 50 years than to keep the district’s two older buildings, provide the required life safety updates and maintain both of them over 50 years. The board sought the in-depth analysis before the April 9 referendum, in which voters in Butler School District 53 will be asked whether to approve building a new K-8 school at the Sports Core.

Cathy Marchese recently earned the Darien 2013 Citizen of the Year Award for her outstanding work in the community.

“I like John Adams after I watched a series on him.”

Marchese named Darien 2013 Citizen of the Year By DANNY CIAMPRONE dciamprone@shawmedia.com DARIEN — Longtime resident Cathy Marchese says she’s honored to be named the town’s 2012 Citizen of the Year. “I was very touched, and I cried a little,” she said. “There are so many people in this community that have done so much, that for me to be singled out, to get this recognition, I was a little embarrassed but so honored because this is one of the biggest awards in Darien.” Marchese was nominated anonymously for the award, and a committee judged all nominations after the Jan. 7 deadline. Some of her activities include being a member of the Darien Historical Society, a member of the Darien Women’s Club and co-chair of the Darien Fest planning

committee. She also has done a variety of volunteer work that spans 26 years. “I think volunteering originated with my mother,” she said. “My mother used to volunteer at the school when I was in grammar school so I think it’s just in your blood. When my children were in grammar school I was a stayat-home mom ... and I volunteered at the school so I could see my children and also be involved in all the activities.” Some of this volunteer work includes helping out

the Darien Lions Club for its annual Candy Day fundraiser, which takes place in mid-October. For the past 25 years, residents have seen Marchese collecting money for the blind and deaf at intersections in exchange for candy. “I’m not like a leader, but I’m an extra set of hands that you’ll always find around the community,” she said. Marchese loves her community, but her family always comes first and is one of the main reasons she is who she is. “My children and grandchildren are the love of my life ... along with my hus-

band, of course. I don’t want to leave him out,” she said. “I would not be who I am today without my husband.” Marchese was not always the outgoing activity-oriented woman that she is today and credited that to her husband, Joe, whom she’s been married to for 40 years. “I was very shy and when I married him I saw his interests and I think that’s prompted me to do what I do,” she said. A dinner-dance honoring Marchese will take place March 16 at Alpine Banquets. For reservations, call 630852-5000, Ext. 8102.

The experiment proved to be a failure, but it didn’t matter. “The cool thing about this class is that you learn just as much when you fail,” said Peter Pintz, another teacher who helped start and run the class. “Despite things not working, (Sally) developed those skills so when she goes to a university she can say she has them.” And working in the lab was one of her favorite things to do — a nice break from the typical classroom. “You can read anything in a textbook, like when I add this solution to that solution this happens, but that’s just words so you don’t necessarily know what’s going on,” she said. “If you do it your-

Luckily for future students, what started as an idea after attending a conference quickly turned into a popular summer school class. SIR1 will now be offered in the regular curriculum next year, and both Emma and Sally will be graduating. Sally is studying to work in chemistry and computer science, while Emma hopes to one day be a surgeon. Their teachers are confident their summer school experience can help jump-start their careers. “If you look at the secondyear kids and what they did, a lot of what they did really blows your mind,” Pintz said. “What some of these high school sophomores and juniors are doing, I was doing my sophomore and junior years of college.”

HINSDALE — A summer course at Hinsdale Central High School strives to modernize science class and put the fun back into the lab. “The idea was to teach them how to be a scientist versus learning what scientists had done in the past,” said Mark Wollschlaeger, one of the teachers who helped start the class, Science Inquiry and Research. SIR was first offered to students at Hinsdale Central and Hinsdale South in 2011. Instead of memorizing science facts and reading about other people’s research, students would conduct their own research and use the scientific method to investigate something they were interested in. The honors-level class also required a bit of commitment from a student’s summer — five hours a day,

five days a week for seven weeks. “We had no idea if we would even get enough students for the class to run and we wound up with 26 students,” Wollschlaeger said. “We went from thinking, ‘Are we going to have enough to run the class?’ to ‘How are we going to manage 26 projects simultaneously?’” There are two levels to the SIR class: SIR1 and SIR2. SIR1 first outlines the scientific method and students pitch their ideas. The rest of the time, they work on their own research. In SIR2, students spend time with a mentor from a university and work together on a project. One of those students was 17-year-old Sally McNichols, who first took the class after her sophomore year. “My first-year project, I tested the effects of light on E. coli growth,” the senior said. “The second year, I actually ended up working at a

8LETTERS Vintage homes worth preserving in Hinsdale

Argonne research focusing on supercomputers Debuting last year as the world’s third-fastest computer, the new supercomputer at Argonne National Laboratory is a superstar in its own right that also happens to be capable of simulating a trillion stars. The massive machine, named Mira (from Latin “miraculum,” or “object of wonder”) adds a tremendous amount of computational power to the nation. Research teams from around the world are preparing to use Mira to tackle the most challenging problems in science and engineering today. What happens when a star explodes? Can we find alternative fuel sources? How hot will the greenhouse world be? These problems cannot be addressed any other way because of their sheer size or complexity. Mira will be used to compress time and explore many possible solutions to issues related to energy and the environment. It will enable the prototyping and testing of construction materials before they are ever physically built and will help search for effective vaccines to deadly infections. Along with Argonne’s other high-profile user facilities such as the Advanced Photon Source and the new Joint Center for Energy Storage Research, the laboratory operates a premier supercomputing center where Mira is housed: the Argonne Leadership

Janet Simons, manager of Home Care Assistance, makes her weekly visit to Betty Kieffer, 94. Home Care Assistance recently opened an office in Hinsdale.

A new business in Hinsdale provides more than just medical care to homebound senior citizens — it offers companionship. Home Care Assistance gives part- or full-time care to seniors in their homes. Staff members focus not only on helping to alleviate the physical concerns of seniors, they also work to uplift their clients’ emotional state so they live out their later years in happiness. It’s wonderful to have such services available to local seniors. Officials with the Butler School District 53 Board of Education believe they have named the ideal candidate to lead the district. Heidi Wennstrom will succeed Sandra Martin as superintendent of District 53 beginning July 1. Wennstrom recieved a bachelor’s

To the Editor: Ask any local real estate agent. Those lucky enough to own a home in Hinsdale are investors in a piece of history. Our village has more than its share of modern construction — both gaudy and tasteful. But the unique value of our community lies in its character, its charm and a certain Norman Rockwellquality that other towns simply cannot offer. We owe much of that charm to vintage homes from centuries past. These homes dot the landscape like seeds of a bygone era, sprouting roots that hold fast to the special qualities that make Hinsdale exceptional. Their very presence mutes the impact of more flamboyant homesteads and reminds visitors of why this community is cherished above others. That is why I am so disappointed that one of the most precious examples of local residential craftsmanship is being sold under the banner “tear-down” real estate. The home at 206 N. Washington St. was once described in the November 1897 issue of Campbell’s Illustrated Journal as, “One of the

• LETTERS Continued from page 10 handsomest homes in the town.” It’s a well-maintained Queen Anne with an expansive interior of maritime-inspired wood work. We have all seen dilapidated relics replaced by modern homes with state-of-the-art comforts. This is not one of those homes. It’s a beautifully cultivated piece of history that seems to be sliding

Is there no way to call attention to the special value of this home? Is there no way to respectfully urge potential buyers to consider an investment other than new construction for 206 N. Washington and properties like it? Vintage has value to a wise investor. But if we sit silent while our most historic homes are sold for demolition, that value is lost forever and all of Hinsdale loses.

toward destruction on a wave of apathy. Just one block north — an empty lot sits ready for new construction — yet it is this Queen Anne that faces bulldozers. Countless residents, the Hinsdale Preservation Commission and the Historical Society all have worked for decades to recognize and preserve homes likes these. And yet, judging from the marketing, it’s likely that a prospective buyer would know nothing beyond the property’s square footage and location.

Taste Indian Chinese Cuisine

ON THE

FUSION OF FLAVORS Address: 2117 W. 63rd St., Downers Grove; closed Mondays Contact: 630-541-9872, taste63rd. com At first blush, the menu offerings look like classic Chinese, but restaurateur Trevor Pereira has gone fusion at Taste Indian Chinese Cuisine. He explains that the combination is a popular trend in India, where Chinese immigrants attuned their culinary skills to suit the tastes of the local population. The spices of India infuse the dishes at Pereira’s restaurant inside the Meadowbrook Shopping Center on 63rd Street in Downers Grove, just east of Belmont Road (Finley). The eatery is tucked along the side of a courtyard in the western half of the mall. Inside the space, he has created an appealing dining room, where hanging lamps are turned low in the evening and add to the warm ambiance. While beer and wine are available, one of the favorite beverages is the mango lassi, a creamy concoction of mango in a yogurt base, colorfully presented in a cocktail glass. He says the drink is an Indian favorite. Pereira’s background includes working with the luxurious Taj Hotels group in India, and helping launch Indian restaurants in the Chicago area. Taste is the first establishment of his own. “This is my dream,” he says. “I wanted to have a restaurant where I could serve people quality food for a very good price.” He says the chefs are happy to accommodate special requests and cater to the American palate, adding, “Since we make everything fresh, we can make (dishes) mild to medium to spicy.” Taste offers vegetarian dishes, in addition to chicken, seafood, beef and lamb, as well as gluten-free options. No pork is served, and no peanut oil is used, only vegetable. He suggests trying the Manchu-

rian sauce, noting you won’t find it in a Chinese restaurant. It’s one of the signature flavors at Taste. A fan is Tanya Schmidt of Downers Grove, who enjoys dining there with husband Carl, or ordering carryout. “They make the best soup in the universe — the Manchow soup,” she says, noting she traveled frequently to China on business before becoming a teacher. “It beats anything I’ve had there.” She says she’s hooked on the General Tsao’s chicken, while her husband recommends the shredded lamb with hot garlic sauce.

She praises the delicate spring rolls, and the wide choice in vegetarian dishes. “With all the corporate restaurants, it’s so lovely to have a small, privately owned restaurant that makes wonderful food,” she says. “You get very personal service, and they care about whether you like what you’ve eaten there.” Having lunch with her family recently was Anu Mathur of Burr Ridge. “Everything is tasty,” she said as they shared dishes, noting friends recommended they try Taste. “We’ll be back. They do a good job catering to what you want. (For example, making it the) medium spicy I requested.” Indian ice cream is made in house. Available in pistachio or mango flavors, a petite portion adds a sweet finish to the meal.

After Hours Film Society unites movie lovers

By ALLISON HORNE msleditorial@shawmedia.com Debbie Venezia of Glen Ellyn received a phone call in 1999 that would change her life — and the future of her After Hours Film Society. The call was from Shirley Johnson, co-owner of the Tivoli Theatre in Downers Grove, inquiring whether Debbie would be interested in transplanting the society to the larger venue. The move was a good one, and Venezia calls it a dream come true. The 1,000-seat Tivoli has ample room for the average 440 guests who come to the movies, and enough to accommodate the majority of the society’s 1,100 members. Meeting each second and fourth Monday, the society features foreign and art films, as well as classics. Upcoming films include “Central Park Five,” “Rust and Bone” and “Royal Affair.” One of the organization’s highlights is the annual student film festival, which is accepting entries until June. As the society’s 25th anniversary approaches, Venezia reflects on how far the group she founded has come.

What made you want to start a film society in the suburbs? I’ve always loved foreign and art films. In the 1980s, I used to drive down to the Music Box (in Chicago) every Friday or Saturday. I’d be fighting traffic, paying for parking, and it became an allday excursion. I kept thinking, ‘I can’t be the only one that wants to do this.’ I called my brother one night, and told him about a small Hinsdale theater that showed foreign films occasionally, and asked if he thought the owners would think I was crazy to volunteer to work the movies and sell tickets to save payroll expenses. He said, ‘Why don’t you form a film society?’ I said, ‘What’s that?’ That was the beginning.

Sarah Minor — sminor@shawmedia.com

Debbie Venezia founded the After Hours Film Society, whose home is the Tivoli Theatre in Downers Grove.

More info What: After Hours Film Society brings foreign and art films to the suburbs Where: Tivoli Theatre, 5021 Highland Ave., Downers Grove When: 7:30 p.m. the second and fourth Monday of every month except December; $5 for members, $9 for nonmembers Contact: 630-534-4528, afterhoursfilmsociety.com

Do you pick all the films shown? I do, but I also take suggestions and recommendations. I read the New York Times, and I watch (to) see what films are opening here or there, and I compile a list. I do rely heavily on word of mouth and other reviews. There have been one or two

films I’ve been disappointed with, but the rest is kind of an adventure. I don’t even like to read reviews before I see a film — too much of the plot is revealed and it ruins the experience. You don’t know what will happen an hour from now in your own life, and that’s how I like to look at films.

“You may have seen films over and over again on cable or a local network, but when you see it on the big screen, it makes such an impact.” Debbie Venezia Glen Ellyn resident

How do you or a local network, but when balance the two? you see it on the big screen, it makes such an impact.

It’s kind of like the Art League is two-thirds of my time and After Hours is onethird. It’s amazing to be able to do something that you really love. I’ve always loved the arts

— it’s fully rewarding.

What’s your take on the upcoming Oscars? My vote is ‘Silver Linings Playbook.’ I love the idea of the Academy — anything that gets people out to the movies is great. When they’re nominated, it makes people want to go see them. I’m in support of all kinds of films — mainstream or my favorite: independent. It’s fabulous.


Have you put off doing your kitchen long enough? Is this the year you have vowed to do something with your cabinets? Have the horror stories of kitchen remodeling made you afraid to even think about it? With prices approaching and surpassing $100,000 for full kitchen remodeling, it is no wonder the Average Joe and Jane feel a little overwhelmed. Enter Kitchen Tune-Up! This locally owned (Downers Grove) National Franchise has been offering minor kitchen remodels for 19 years. Marty Ceranec, the owner, has won numerous awards from KTU for Sales, Customer Service, and Creativity. He received the highest award in 2000 when he won National Franchise of the Year and in addition, is a two time Angies List Super Service Award Winner. We offer Kitchen Solutions for Any Budget. “I think some people get sticker shock when they look at the price of redoing an entire kitchen and are overwhelmed. We work with clients every day who have the same anxieties,” says Marty. KTU can provide anything from the Signature Kitchen Tune-Up to a full blown design and remodel. “The bulk of our work last year was in refacing and door replacement. Door replacement doesn’t change the color, but replaces old particle board doors with new solid raised panel doors utilizing concealed hinges. Refacing, on the other hand, enables one to change their oak cabinets to maple cabinets without buying all new cabinetry,” said Marty. “These two options also save landfill space because we are saving the boxes.” Why have they been so successful? “I think it’s because we follow our trust points (below). Simple things like showing up on time and returning phone calls which is often lacking in the remodeling industry. I have chosen to keep the business small so I am involved in every job with my three long time installers. By doing this we have become well known as experts in minor kitchen remodeling.” Kitchen Tune-Up also offers cabinetry upgrades such as glass doors, tipout trays, soft-closing dovetail drawers, and full extension rollouts as well as counters in laminate, solid surfaces, granite and quartz (Cambria) “The Best Counter Top Around.” When questioned about any regrets, Marty replies, “We often get calls to update the kitchen when the owner is ready. We always wonder why they didn’t do it earlier so they could have enjoyed it sooner.”

Hinsdale Central’s Brian Allen wrestles with Stefan Ivanisevic during practice last week.

‘A feeling I never had before’ By JASON ROSSI

Allen’s state title run

jrossi@shawmedia.com CHAMPAIGN — Brian Allen wanted to get over the hump. He did so in resounding fashion. After falling in the semifinals at the state wrestling finals the last two years, the Hinsdale Central junior won big in last Friday’s semifinal match, needing just 32 seconds to pin T.F. South’s Corinthian McBridge. “Once I got through that — it was a feeling I never had before,” Allen said. “I never won in that round before, so it was a relief to get to the finals.” Relief turned into euphoria

First round: Fall, 51 seconds Quarterfinals: 5-2 decision Semifinals: Fall, 32 seconds Championship: 4-2 decision

as Allen went on to take home the Class 3A 285-pound title the next day, completing an undefeated season and picking up the bracket board he had in his sights all season. After the semifinal win, Allen had a whole day to get set for his championship match showdown with Neuqua Valley’s Andrew Geers, who also entered the bout undefeated.

He spent his time getting mentally prepared. “I had some time to think about it,” Allen said. “I’ve wrestled Geers before (in my career) so I had some time to watch film on him and put together a game plan going into the final match.” As expected when two undefeated wrestlers meet in the final match of the year, the Allen-Geers bout was a tight affair. But Allen prevailed, becoming the second undefeated state champ in the family after older brother Jack Allen completed a perfect season in 2011. “I’ve been down there three times now and the last couple years I haven’t been able

Hinsdale Central’s Allen joins brother as undefeated state champion

to close things up the way I wanted to, so to finally get the title and that bracket board is kind of a relief. “It was fun,” said Allen, who will return next season with a chance to set Hinsdale Central’s alltime wins record and become the Red Devils’ first two-time champ. Allen wasn’t the only one who had fun at the state finals. A week after finishing third in the Shepard sectional at 138, sophomore Juwan Edmund made it to the title match and finished second in his second trip to state. He was fifth at 126 last year. “It was pretty fun,” Edmund said. “I didn’t like the

way it ended, it didn’t end the way I wanted it to, but it was pretty fun.” Edmund started his tourney with a pair of major decision wins (16-6 and 14-2), then won 8-1 in the semifinals to make the championship match. “I was staying in my stance, working my shots and just wrestle how I usually wrestle,” Edmund said. Belleville West’s Mech Spraggins got the best of Edmund 7-2, which provided motivation as he didn’t plan to waste any time prepping for next season. “I won’t start wrestling for a little while,” he said, “but (Wednesday) I’ll be lifting.”

BOYS HOOPS PLAYOFF PREVIEW

By JASON ROSSI jrossi@shawmedia.com

Class: 4A Sectional seed: No. 5 Regional: Wheaton Warren-

ville South

Hinsdale South Class: 4A Sectional seed: No. 19 Regional: Oswego East Regional opener: 6 p.m. Mon-

day vs. No. 14 Oswego East Outlook: Winning hasn’t come easy for the Hornets this season, but the arrow is pointing in the right direction as the postseason arrives. A 7-17 record might not indicate much success, but after an eight-game winless stretch in December and January, South

Central keeps it close against state power Pirates SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA HINSDALE — Hinsdale Central boys basketball came into the game on a roll, winners of 12 in a row. Proviso East came into Wednesday’s West Suburban

Conference crossover considered one of the best teams in the state. Using their recent success as a foundation, the Red Devils put a scare into the Pirates before falling 66-59. It was their first loss of 2013.

Central (18-6) led 16-13 after a quarter, but East (23-3) battled back to take a 40-26 halftime lead. The Red Devils flipped the script in the third quarter and whittled the deficit down to 50-44 at the end of the third quarter. A pair of Brian Owens free

throws cut East’s lead to 52-50 with 5:58 left in the game, and though the Pirates went just 7-of-14 at the free throw line in the fourth, they did just enough to fend off the Red Devils. Owens finished with 13 points, and Matt Rafferty led

Central with 17 points and 16 rebounds.

Hinsdale South Facing host Downers Grove North in a WSC crossover Wednesday, the Hornets fell 64-44 to the Trojans.

HSL

Regional opener: 7:30 p.m. Tuesday vs. No. 12 Geneva or No. 21 Wheaton Warrenville South Outlook: If nothing else, the Red Devils have plenty of momentum on their side heading toward the playoffs. After they fell to 1-1 in the West Suburban Silver with a December loss to Oak ParkRiver Forest, they won their next 10 conference games to claim the outright title. They were 12-0 in 2013 before Wednesday’s 66-59 loss to state power Proviso East — a West Suburban crossover meeting between the two division champions. Central’s reward for all that hard work was to be thrown into one of the toughest sectionals in the state. “Probably the top four seeds were clear-cut but you take five all the way down to 15 or 16 and there are some good teams,” Central coach Nick Latorre said. “It’s a great sectional.” Though the sectional field is deep, the Red Devils have the horses to compete. Senior

has gone 4-5, and two of those losses — to Proviso East and Morton — helped prep the Hornets for the postseason. “Those were a couple of tough games, but we played really good, especially against Morton,” said South coach Tanner Mitchell, whose team had an eight-point lead on the Mustangs in the second half Feb. 12. “The kids played well. I’m proud of the way they played.” Additionally, South has had nine single-digit losses, four of those by three points or less; just another sign the Hornets are close to turning things in their favor. “We’ve had a lot of close games.

point guard Brian Owens is as good as they come, while fellow senior guards Jared Eck and Alec Hutcherson stretch the defense with their longrange accuracy. Sophomore Matt Rafferty, junior Ian Bunting and senior Rigas Pappas complement the guard play with tough play in the paint. With a win in the opener, Central would move on to the regional championship game at 7:30 p.m. Friday, likely against No. 4 seed West Aurora. The key to winning the first game and moving on is the same as it has been all season long. “We have to guard people and take care of the ball,” Latorre said. “When we are able to run our offense and get the ball inside, we are tough and when we guard and rebound, that really completes us.”

Maslow medals in first trip to state By JASON ROSSI jrossi@shawmedia.com CHAMPAIGN — Mike Matozzi believes there is a progression to achieving success at the state wrestling tournament. “In the years I’ve been coaching,” the Hinsdale South coach said, “It’s first you qualify, then you place and then you think about becoming a state champion.” Justin Maslow must have tuned out his coach during that lesson because the junior placed fifth at 145 pounds in his first trip to the Class 3A tournament last weekend at Assembly Hall in Champaign. “Going in there I was kind of an underdog,” Maslow said. “People didn’t really know who I was because I didn’t even qualify last year, but now I definitely have confidence and the stuff to back it up where I know I have a chance to be the best kid next year.”

Maslow’s state scores 1st round: W, 4-2 decision Quarterfinals: L, 7-1 decision Backdraw 1st round: W, 1-0 decision Backdraw quarters: W, 7-4 decision Backdraw semis: L, 7-2 decision 5th place: W, 7-2 decision Maslow earned a decision win in his first match at state, then fell to the eventual runner-up in the second round. But he finished strong with a 3-1 record in the backdraw, including a 7-2 win the fifth-place match, to earn his medal. “All my matches were kind of close, but the one I won in the quarterfinal wrestlebacks where I was sure I was going to place, that was my best match,” Maslow said. “To be able to medal his first time down there is an outstanding accomplish-

ment,” Matozzi said. An offseason of hard work, training and wrestling got Maslow to state this year. He plans to stick with that formula as he gets ready for next season. “I think Overtime (School of Wrestling) starts in two or three weeks, so I hope I can make the Fargo freestyle (national championship tournament) team and just wrestle throughout the whole summer,” Maslow said. Freshman Joshua King also represented South at state and had a 1-2 showing at 220 pounds at the tourney, but Matozzi still found positives in that performance. “I know he wanted to be on the medal stand and he was disappointed after his second loss,” Matozzi said. “But to be the only freshman to qualify for state at 220 and to win a match at state by pinning a kid who’s a senior, I think that showed a Bill Ackerman – backerman@shawmedia.com lot. I think it’s a good learnHInsdale South’s Justin Maslow (top) wins his third-place match at sectioning experience for him.”

Sandburg tops Hinsdale Central to earn wrestling state berth By JASON ROSSI jrossi@shawmedia.com DARIEN — First impressions aren’t everything. When Hinsdale Central’s wrestling team faced Sandburg Tuesday in the Class 3A Hinsdale South dual team sectional, the Eagles won 43-20. While the final might not show it, the Red Devils performed well, even as their season came to a close. “That’s all we asked of our guys, to go out and compete hard,” Central coach Jason Hayes said. “We know Sandburg has a tough team. They’re probably one of the teams that could end up being state champions, so that’s a tough draw.” Sandburg’s lineup included three individual state champs and another finalist, but aside from Ricky Robertson’s secondperiod pin, all of the bouts pitting Central wrestlers against Sandburg state finalists were close.

Hinsdale Central winners WEIGHT RESULT Juwan Edmund 138 Fall, 5:30 Tom Ward 145 Fall, 5:42 Matt Allen 220 7-3 decision Brian Allen 285 25-10 tech fall At 120, George Tolbert at one point led 3-1 against state runner-up Sebastian Pique before Pique came back for a 10-6 win. C.J. Brucki, the 160 state champ, needed a late takedown to finalize a 5-1 win over Tim Glavin, and 171 state champ Colin Holler was limited to a 12-6 decision by Keith Schmidt. “I thought our kids wrestled tough,” Hayes said. “We wrestled Sebastian Pique down to the wire, C.J. Brucki down to the wire. You can’t

ask for much more than good effort, and for them to go out and compete hard.” Starting at 113 pounds, Sandburg won the first four matches of the dual. Juwan Edmund and Tom Ward had back-to-back third-period pins to steal back some momentum for Central, but the Eagles won the next fives matches to take control. Matt Allen (7-3 decision) and Brian Allen (25-10 technical fall) had back-to-back wins, but Sandburg’s 37-12 lead prior to the Allen wins was too much to overcome. “I think we performed all right. We wrestled our best and did what we could do, but in the end I think they were just the better team,” Brian Allen said. “We just have to keep working and hopefully we can be like them soon. They’re a pretty tough team and they’re going to be right there until the end.”

But King isn’t talking about that with his team. “These are teenage high school kids. Sometimes the more pressure you put on them the better they do, but we’re going to try to take the pressure off,” King said. “We’re just going to tell them, ‘Swim fast and have fun.’ Sometimes if you let it all hang out, that’s when good things happen.”

The Red Devils topped Oak Park-River Forest in two previous meetings this season, but the third time wasn’t the charm as the Huskies won 70-56 in a Class 4A regional semifinal game Feb. 14 at Hinsdale Central.

WESTERN SPRINGS — Even though Hinsdale Central’s boys swimming team earned 12 solo berths to this weekend’s state meet and 15 overall, its title at the Lyons Township sectional was a team effort. There was a little bit of everything as the Red Devils ran away with the title. “There was a sophomore who had never swam distance before and he cut 15 seconds,” Central coach Corky King said of Adam Pircon, who finished fourth in the 500-yard freestyle with a time of 4:47.15. “One of his goals was to make varsity as a sophomore, and now he’s going to state.” King also enjoyed seeing freshman Craig Smith qualify in the 100 backstroke after he finished second with a time of 52.98 seconds. The coach suspected Smith might have had some motivation from older brother Mark Smith, a senior who punched his ticket in the 100 butterfly (second, 52.37) earlier in the meet. The Red Devils crowned three champions on the day. Sophomore Brian Portland in the 100 butterfly (52.08) earned the lone solo win and swam on two winning relays. Seniors Will Leach, Eddie Mapel and Connor Schroyer joined him on the 200 medley relay (1:36.03), and Portland

Are you sufering with

Irritable Bowel, Celiac, Crohn’s or Colitis? Are you afraid to leave your house due to an unpredictable bowel? Have you tried diferent treatments but continue to sufer? Do you know the essentials for a healthy digestive system? Have you given up and decided to just live with it? he digestive system assimilates food (carbs, fats and proteins) to produce energy. It breaks down food into nutrient forms that your body can absorb. It uses enzymes, good bacteria and hydrochloric acid to break down food to a usable form. Your gut is a barrier, a tube that starts in your mouth, continues as your esophagus, small intestine, large intestine and rectum. 80% of your immune system is in your gut. When you break down the barrier (gut lining), toxins can “leak” into the blood stream leading to an immune response, inlammation and food allergies. Hippocrates, the father of medicine said… “look to the gut, there will you ind the origin of almost all human illness.”

Hi, my name is Dr. Jefrey E. Forzley with Lemont Natural Healthcare. I am a chiropractic physician and a holistic practitioner. I am passionate about helping people with chronic health conditions. I have been in practice for 28 years. As a holistic practitioner I evaluate the nervous system, immune system, endocrine system (hormones), diet essentials (Neuro-‐Metabolic Care), manage the underlying cause and use natural therapies to manage digestive disorders. here are many essentials required for proper digestion. Let’s talk about a few… Zinc is necessary to make hydrochloric acid (HCL). HCL is needed to break down food (protein) in the stomach and for production of methyl groups. Methyl groups turn on tumor suppressor genes and turn of oncogenes leading to potential cancer growth. If HCL is deicient, this results in poor digestion and a many imbalances due to a deiciency of methyl groups. HCL deiciency also leads to growth of pathological bacteria like H. Pylori, which can cause gastritis, stomach ulcers and possibly stomach cancer. Probiotics (good bacteria) are normally found in the gut. Optimal levels are needed for a proper functioning digestive system. hese probiotics are also part of your immune

system. hey play an important role in the protective barrier in your gut. Your gut makes up 80% of your immune system due to this barrier system. Antibiotics kill pathologic bacteria and infections but they also kill good bacteria and cause gut dysbiosis (imbalance). his dysbiosis can lead to pathologic bacterial, yeast and parasitic infections as well as food allergies. Digestive system inlammation is associated with IBS, Crohn’s, Celiac and Ulcerative Colitis. It is due to stress, poor diet, toxins and food allergies. Digestive inlammation leads to production of cytokines (inlammatory cells). hese cytokines travel in the blood to the brain and inlame the brain cells. he brain (mesencephalon) in turn controls the digestive system. his leads to a vicious cycle resulting in an inlammatory cascade which exponentially worsens over time. Successfully managing digestive conditions involves balancing the nervous system, digestive system and immune system as well as improving the diet, decreasing gut inlammation and detoxifying the body. Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a digestive disorder that includes abdominal pain, discomfort, bloating and alternating constipation and diarrhea. he cause is unknown but theories include toxic overload, intestinal infections, inlammation from stress and poor diet generalized condition of the digestive system poor signaling from the brain to the digestive system for proper function.

Medications to treat digestive disorders can weaken your immune system and lead to infections and immune degenerative conditions including cancer. hese medications may give you symptom relief but have side efects and DO NOT ADDRESS the UNDERLYING CAUSE of your condition.

Testimonial As someone who lives with chronic nausea, poor digestion and anxiety, I assumed I was out of options when countless doctors told me that there was nothing else they could do for me. hey told me it was likely all in my head. hen I visited Dr. Forzley and he told me from the initial consultation that he was very conident he could help me. I was so excited that I cried. No other doctor has ever been so much on my side. Now, 8 weeks into treatment, I am nausea free, anxiety free and my digestion is normal. I have started living a life I never thought I could live. My body is a machine, slowed and dirtied by processed foods and environmental toxins. But with the help of Dr. Forzley, my body is on the way back to an optimal state for long term health and happiness. Veronica M.

Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity is a digestive condition that involves gluten sensitivity like Celiac Disease but is not an autoimmune disorder. It involves digestive symptoms (pain, bloating…), fatigue, joint pains as well as neurologic symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, poor memory, brain fog and diiculty concentrating. Celiac Disease, Crohn’s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis are autoimmune diseases. An autoimmune disorder is when your immune system attacks your body instead of protecting it. here is NO CURE for autoimmune disorders. But you can calm down the immune response NATURALLY and decrease the efects of the tissue destruction. If you have an autoimmune disease like Celiac, Crohn’s or Ulcerative Colitis and you do not balance and calm down the autoimmune destruction, your immune system can attack other tissues and cause multiple autoimmune disorders. It is common for people with an autoimmune disorder to have multiple autoimmune diseases for this reason. Medications are not always the long term answer.

Holistic therapy can manage digestive conditions by: 1) inding and balancing the underlying cause and… 2) using natural therapies that work with your body.
