God wants us to be doing.” Between drawing energy from the solar panels and driving an electric car from Nissan called the Leaf, Jansen estimated he has reduced his monthly power usage from the grid by about 10 percent. He has made efforts to let other people know how they can reduce their energy usage as well. Jansen recently discussed solar panels at the Riverside Public Library. The program was co-sponsored by the Riverside Sustainability Council, Frederick Law Olmsted Society and the library, said

We had students, teachers and parents from Riverside Brookfield High School as well as some engineers.” Riverside residents previously approved a referendum measure urging village officials to ensure projects done in he village are environmentally friendly. But the village also has an ordinance prohibiting solar panels from

being installed in such a way that they can be seen from the street. Jansen said his first application for a permit to put up his solar panels in February 2012 was denied. But then the ordinance was revised to allow solar panels if they weren’t located right next to the street, he said. Jansen then reapplied for a permit, which was granted, he said. “There is a fear of the unknown because people don’t know what they will look like,” Jansen said. “But all my neighbors said that mine look great.”

RIVERSIDE – For his first five years of living in Riverside, Scott Jansen endured five or six power outages lasting at least an hour every year. So, he decided he would be prepared for the next blackout, and installed three solar panels on the roof of his garage. The panels provide his home with enough backup energy to power some essential items in times of need. “I put the solar panels up about a year ago,” Jansen said. “But since I did that, I haven’t experienced a single power outage!” That’s a problem Jansen likes having. He also loves the idea of conserving as much energy from the power grid as possible, and he has a couple of good incentives to pursue and promote such a system. As an engineer, Jansen was intrigued by the prospect of designing and installing the system himself. And as an ordained minister, he believes people have a responsibility to care for God’s creation. “I was an engineer for about four years, and I was volunteering at a church in the evenings and whatnot,” Jansen said. “And I felt God was calling me to do that. I thought that’s where I really felt I was resonating with my purpose, and so I gave up the engineering job and became a pastor.” Jansen said he has been pastor of Riverside Presbyterian Church for the past six years. He has been in the ministry for about 25 years, he said. Jansen earned undergraduate degrees in engineering

Pursuing championship no trivial matter to Brookfield library By JERRY MOORE jmoore@shawmedia.com BROOKFIELD – On the road to victory, members of Les Quizerables took a wrong turn. Representing the Brookfield Public Library, they were on their way to the 2013 Little Trivia on the Prairie contest on April 13. This annual competition determines the Trivial Pursuit champion among local library districts. The Les Quizerables team – Brookfield Public Library Director Kimberly Coughran, and board members Dianne Duner, Lisa Knasiak and Jennifer Perry – were headed to the Indian Prairie Public Library in Darien. The problem was that the event was actually being held at the Prairie Trails Public Library in Burbank. True to form, the team members corrected their error in mid-trip and made it to the event on time. Not only that, they bested the five other library teams involved to take home the championship plaque. “This is our second attempt at the Trivial Pursuit competition,” Coughran

said. “We last participated when they last offered it in 2011.” Each member of Les Quizerables said being a part of the event was a memorable experience. “I enjoy the fact that everyone had a kind of niche. You had music people and literary people and tech people ... and culture,” Duner said. “So it seemed like we filled in where we were needed. Now we know where to go for information.” When Les Quizerables competed in 2011, there was one trustee and three staff members on the team, Coughran said. This time there were three trustees and one staff member, she said. “Being with the group; we had a great time,” Perry said about what she enjoyed most. “It was really fun – even when we went to the wrong library!” As for deciding on the name of the team, Coughran said it was a true group effort. “There was staff input,” she said. “There were some people on staff, and we put their heads together and came up with the name.”

A state grant in the totaling $260,300 will be used to make some major improvements at Kiwanis Park in Brookfield.

BSL

BROOKFIELD – Musicians who performed in Brookfield’s Battle of the Bands event held this past weekend may have an improved staging area in 2014. While presiding over his final Village Board meeting as president May 13, Michael Garvey announced that Brookfield will receive an Open Space Lands Acquisition and Development grant from the Illinois Department of Natural Resources. The money will fund improvements at Kiwanis Park, including erecting a band shell and staging area for outdoor entertainment, Garvey said. “There are several big improvements planned,” Garvey said. “But the biggest one will be installing a band shell.” Keith Sbiral, Brookfield’s assistant village manager, said the village will receive $260,300 through the OSLAD grant. Brookfield will contribute another $300,000 for the project, which calls for improvements such as stormwater drainage, walk-

in Kiwanis Park, he said. “This is the third OSLAD grant that we’ve received in the last 10 years,” Garvey said. “I think this puts us at about $2 million that we’ve received through the OSLAD grant program.” The band shell improvement will include a stage and graded lawn seating area for outdoor events, Garvey said. The sand volleyball courts now at Kiwanis Park will be enhanced as will the basketball courts, he said. “We’re very excited about this,” Garvey said. “In tough economic times, more folks are coming to events held closer to their homes, so the park has been getting a lot of usage. The village staff did a great job putting the application together, and so did members of the community like the [Brookfield] Chamber of Commerce, our state senators and legislators and other residents.”

By JERRY MOORE jmoore@shawmedia.com BROOKFIELD – As a longtime village official, Kit Ketchmark believes Brookfield has been moving in the right direction. The leadership provided by former Village President Michael Garvey and members of the Village Board have left Brookfield in good shape fiscally, Ketchmark said. This has allowed them to proceed with important projects that will benefit the community, he said. This foundation will serve Ketchmark well. After serving as a trustee for 10 years, he took the oath of office May 13 as village president. “I wanted to continue on with what we had started, what I had worked on as a member of the board,” Ketchmark said when asked what prompted him to run for village president this year. “The village is in stable condition, and I wanted to see that continue.” According to a village ordinance, individuals are prohibited from holding elective office in Brookfield for more than two consecutive terms. However, they may serve in the same position for multiple two-year terms as long as those tenures are not consecutive. Ketchmark, for example, was first elected to the Brookfield Village Board in 2001. He served until 2009 and was off the board for two years. Re-elected in 2011, Ketchmark was in the middle of his third term. Previously elected as a trustee, Garvey was unable to run for village president this year because he had served two consecutive terms. So he ran for re-election as a member of the Village Board.

Trustees Cathy Colgrass-Edwards and Michael Towner as well as Village Clerk Brigid Weber also served their two consecutive terms and could not run for re-election to their seats. Colgrass-Edwards ran unopposed as village clerk while Towner ran against Ketchmark and Bill Russ for village president. The PEP Party slate of Ketchmark, Colgrass-Edwards, Garvey, Nicole Gilhooley and incumbent Trustee Brian Oberhauser swept the April 9 consolidated election. The PEP Party has won every municipal election in Brookfield since 2005. Towner, who was previously affiliated with the PEP Party, ran for village president as an independent when Ketchmark was slated to run this year instead of him. With the election behind them, village officials can focus on issues such as Brookfield’s roadways and enhancing the business community, Ketchmark said. “We have a long-term infrastructure plan. There are a lot of streets that need attention,” Ketchmark said. “Staff members put together a street survey, which lists the condition of our streets. This way we can prioritize what we need do to first.” Officials are working on a marketing strategy to entice developers to come to Brookfield, Ketchmark said. This plan will show what the village has to offer and should spur economic development, he said. “One goal is to make Ogden Avenue the sales tax generator that it can be,” Ketchmark said. “I’m certainly very optimistic about the village’s future. Much of what we’ve been doing these last few years will help us move forward.”

RON HURST

A few days ago (while channel surfing) I came across someone trying to sell an ormolu case clock that is nearly 200 years old for about $10,000. I was stunned. If you’re not familiar with the term, it refers to metal, usually cast bronze, gold plated with nearly pure gold using a technique OSHA would have fits over. Essentially I think it likely to be a derivative of one of the traditional (also very dangerous) techniques for refining gold. Gold bearing ore was crushed and mixed with mercury, the gold detached itself from the rock and amalgamated with the mercury. The slag, or waste rock, was then skimmed off to leave only the gold and mercury ‘soup’ which was then distilled to drive off the mercury and leave only the gold behind. The manufacture of ormolu was no less deadly to the artist applying the gold, in that a gold amalgam paste was applied to the object to be gilt and then the object was ‘roasted’ in a kiln until the mercury was driven off leaving a gold plated object behind. I was stunned because it was a casting (hence very unlikely to be unique) and also, I confess, a bit stunned that anyone would even consider that kind of money for a clock that wouldn’t keep time. On the other hand maybe I shouldn’t have been so naive. One of our clients has a grandfather’s clock that he is very proud of - even though its time keeping is relatively uninspiring. Not only that, he recently waxed enthusiastic over an antique replica clock he is building that will undoubtedly, when finished, be interesting to watch; but it probably won’t keep time particularly well either. You may wonder why he wants it, but let’s just say that it doesn’t matter to him. In a very real sense he finds it a romantic reminder of a different era. Though born in utility, clocks and watches have always had a rather unworldly existence. Think about this, in Ancient Rome time keeping began with the break of day and ended with nightfall. Of course the Romans knew there were other hours in the day, but in a world without bright and abundant artificial light it was practical to reckon the first hour of daylight to be the first hour of the day. Concern with those dark hours of the night seems to have begun in monasteries (how’s that for unworldly?); indeed, the origin of the word clock, seems to signal this. The English word “clock” is derived from Middle Dutch “clocke” meaning bell or clock and it, in turn, was derived from Old French “cloche” meaning bell, exclusively. Latin scholars may go on (my dictionary certainly does) to note that cloche seems to owe its origin to Late Latin “clocca”, an onomatopoetic name for a bell. Late Latin, Old French, those are connections that would put clocks into Medieval monasteries even if historical records did not first mention them in connection to monasteries. Monks needed to be awakened for prayers in the middle of the night, and before the invention of clocks, it must have been someone’s job to stay awake with an hourglass to mark the time so that he might awaken his brothers (by ringing a bell, perhaps?) for prayers. While I’m sure their faith never faltered, I’m equally sure that more than a few monks assigned to mark the time must have fallen asleep on so dull a job. Then there must have been a rascally few brothers who became so bored and impatient with their task that they succumbed to the temptation to “eat the sand”; that is, turn the

hourglass over before the sands had finished their course of travel from top to bottom. Faith (saving the faithful from error) and reason must have conspired for an answer to this problem and the result seems to have been some sort of gravity powered alarm clock. A rock (perhaps some more sophisticated weight - but let’s say rock just to keep it Medieval) suspended from a chain would have powered the device. It would have to have transmitted the tug of gravity on it, via the links of the chain, through some sort of gear train to an escapement, a device to control the march of the rock towards the ground; and in this controlled fall we would have had the essence of timekeeping. The rock would “fall” at a known (slow!) rate of speed and when it reached the time for the brothers to awaken (given the origins of the word) it probably would have mechanically rung a bell, all of this a thousand years ago. I wouldn’t bet on the accuracy of that first clock, but if it used a pendulum in its escapement (not at all unlikely) it could have been fairly consistent in the way it divided the hours of the night. As travel became

more safe in the late Middle Ages (and with it, correspondence more reliable), the technology of time spread throughout Europe. Prosperous cities and wealthy men had large public clocks built; and as important status symbols, they proliferated. By A.D. 1500 Renaissance Europeans had become accustomed to a 24 hour day that began at midnight. This allowed a (not always good) reordering of the work day while continuing developments in timekeeping ultimately became the cornerstone of superior navigation at sea. The rest of the world would not follow for more than 3 centuries, during which time Europe came to dominate most of the known world. As you may have gathered, clocks, while interesting to me, have never had much of a romantic significance for me. My romance is saved for diamonds, eternal, brilliant and when cut to perfection, the perfect gift with which to say, “I love you.” We promise that we will never offer you a diamond that is not rare and beautiful; and while our Hearts On Fire diamonds (the stellar combination of rare diamond and rare craftsmanship) will not keep time, they are the perfectly timeless gift.

IDOT formed the Community Advisory Group (CAG) in March to evaluate options for the intersection, currently a four-way stop. One option being ex plored is an overpass. At an April Village Board meeting, former Village President Liz Asperger said IDOT got the message “loud and clear” from residents that they do not favor an overpass, which many think would increase traffic and affect bordering Sedgwick Park. Village trustees also said they oppose an overpass. IDOT is also considering

Legislator considers letting schools opt out Whether schools should serve as polling sites is a question more districts are considering post-Sandy Hook, and the debate has reached Springfield. In March, Illinois Comptroller Judy Baar Topinka and state Rep. Jack Franks, D-Marengo, announced legislation that would prohibit public and private schools from being used as polling sites. No bill has been officially introduced, and after talking with county clerks about the shortage of available polling sites, Franks said a future bill would not eliminate schools as polling sites altogether, but would allow schools to “opt out” of their obligation to serve as voting locations – a state law – if they cannot maintain the same level of security on election day compared to a normal school day. Cook County Clerk David Orr said he does not support such a change. Orr notifies districts of future election dates far in advance – currently, through 2018 – and he encourages districts that have security concerns to plan so that they don’t have school on election days, such as by having an Institute Day. This year in suburban Cook County, 131 schools chose that option. There were 14 districts that requested that their schools not be used as polling sites for the April 9 election, some citing security reasons, but all were denied. “We definitely sympathize with their need to keep their school secure, but since a third of our precincts are located near schools, we need to

Diane Bradford, of La Grange, checks her paper ballot in precinct 10 at Seventh Avenue School in La Grange on March 20, 2012. use schools as polling places,” said Courtney Greve, spokesperson for Orr. Nearly 400 schools in suburban Cook County served as polling places for the election, including all four schools in Western Springs District 101. “We hope that April was the last time elections will be [held] in our buildings,” Superintendent Brian Barnhart said. “The lack of ability to really control that situation is reason enough to try to get elections out to different places in the community.” That, said Greve, isn’t a possibility. Schools make up one-third of polling places in suburban Cook County, and without them, there wouldn’t be enough places for people to vote, Greve said. In some places, schools are the only sites that meet accessibility requirements. Franks anticipates that 5 to 10 percent of schools would opt out of their requirement to act as a polling site if legislation is passed. “I don’t see why the clerk can force schools to be polling places when the schools don’t want to be and can’t protect their children,” he said.

A lesson in democracy or a security risk? That’s how the debate was framed by officials in La Grange School District 102 who recently voted to push back an Institute Day next year to keep students out of schools for the March 2014 gubernatorial primary election.

room [that] the kids and staff are not using that day,” May said. “We hire off-duty policemen for each school to keep an eye on voters and make sure that none of the voters leave that room and go into any other part of the school.” May said he thinks students benefit from their school serving as a polling site. “When they see all the voters coming in and the signs and hear the room is closed for the election, I think that’s a good civics lesson for them,” May said. Board Vice President Joyce Fitch, a former language arts teacher, didn’t agree. “I don’t think it is a civics lesson,” she said. “The overriding factor for me was that the parents and the teachers wanted to have the students out of the buildings [on Election Day].” One District 102 parent, Susan Ragaishis, drafted an online petition asking Illinois to stop using schools as polling places while students are present – Franks’ initial proposal – that received 145 signatures.

Recently, the village of Lyons hosted members of the Peace Officers Memorial Foundation at Cermak Woods Forest Preserve as they paid tribute to fellow officers who have died in the line of duty. The foundation also is attempting to raise money to install a permanent memorial at that location to honor fallen officers. We give a thumbs up to honoring all the officers who serve our towns each day. It’s a tough job, and we’re glad they do it. A thumbs up to Western Springs resident and Eagle Scout candidate Daniel Myhre, who upon noticing that a prayer garden at Brookfield’s Faith Lutheran Church could use some TLC rounded up a group of volunteers and got to work. We’d like to give a thumbs up to Myhre for his work in beautifying the community and to all the Scouts who invest their time back into the community. Just think of what could be accomplished around town if we all had to live up to Eagle Scout expectations.

Swimming notes on Hladik: • Earned All-America honorable mention honors in 2013 as part of Missouri’s 200-meter medley relay team. • Ranks fourth in Missouri history in the 100-meter backstroke • At LT, won the won the Charles ‘Chuck’ Bennet award for most outstanding male athlete • Holds three LT records • Eight-time High School All American

I’m a resident in the Downers Grove area. I just wanna say I love dogs. I have three dogs of my own. But I really feel that when people walk dogs by your house that their dog should be allowed to only go on the parkway, not be running all over your front lawn or peeing all over your plants or all your flowers. Especially now in the spring and the summer when you planted things. And even in the winter and the fall. It’s just common courtesy to direct your dogs. And it’s common sense for you to be the director. A lot of the people to come by allow their dogs to go wherever they want. I think we as humans need to be in charge of the dogs and direct them to the parkways, and certainly clean up after your dog too because a lot of people don’t own dogs, and they don’t appreciate dogs all over their front lawn. Again, I love dogs, but we’re real careful with ours to make sure they’re not all over people’s front lawns.

Use the bike path Why do people on bikes need to ride in the driving lane on Woodward as if they are a car when there’s a nice bike path right next to them? They don’t even hug the curb. It’s dangerous and inconsiderate. Use the bike path, that’s what it’s there for.

INDIAN HEAD PARK – Joe Hladik, the most decorated athlete in Lyons Township High School history, still sends his former high school coach messages when he’s on his way to a swimming meet. Hladik, a senior swimmer at the University of Missouri, left LT and his Indian Head Park home to compete for a Division 1 school, but he’s more than kept in touch. In April, Hladik was selected out of 14 nominees as the Southeastern Conference (SEC) Male Community Leader of the Year, which comes with a $10,000 post-graduate scholarship. Hladik, majoring in health sciences and minoring in art and psychology, can use the scholarship for the master’s in education he plans to start at Missouri in the fall after graduating May 17. He would like to teach art at the highschool level. “I couldn’t be prouder,” said Scott Walker, Hladik’s swim coach at LT. “I guess the biggest reward is that you can have an athlete you spent so much time with keep in constant contact with you to share his joy and success. That to me is the value of education.” Hladik was recognized for volunteering in and near the university’s home in Columbia, Mo., including his work for the MS Society, which funds research and treatment for multiple sclerosis, a chronic neurological disease.

Residents put on track with train safety By JERRY MOORE jmoore@shawmedia.com RIVERSIDE – It figures. As soon as the police show up, everyone decided to behave themselves around trains. Riverside police officers Jeff Miller and Mike Panek said motorists and pedestrians alike were adhering to laws for crossing the train tracks at Longcommon Road on Tuesday morning. The officers were there as part of the village’s enforcement program regarding train safety. “As soon as people see us here, they obey the rules,” Panek said, adding he often observes people breaking the law at the railroad crossing when police officers aren’t visible. Sgt. Bill Gutschick said people do not realize how powerful trains are or how fast they are traveling. Incidents happen most often when pedestrians or motorists rush to beat a train across the tracks or to try and catch a train, he said. Members of the Riverside Police and Fire departments were at the Metra commuter station last week passing out literature reminding people of the laws pertaining to train safety. Violations can result in a fine of $250 or 50 hours of community service.

Local representatives crown winner of senior spelling bee By JERRY MOORE jmoore@shawmedia.com CICERO – A local state legislator recently welcomed a new colleague by co-hosting an event for senior citizens. State Rep. Lisa Hernandez, D-24th District, of Cicero partnered with state Rep. Silvana Tabares, D-21st District, of Chicago to hold a spelling bee for seniors May 13. Tab-

ares was sworn into office in January. Her district covers the Brighton Park and Little Village neighborhoods in Chicago as well as Lyons, Stickney and Summit. “There were seven people who participated in the spelling bee, and 54 people attended the event,” said Alaina Hampton, a legislative aide for Tabares. “It was just a friendly competition for se-

niors. It was a way for them to meet and become friends with other seniors.” The spelling bee was held at Piotowski Park Gym, 4247 W. 31st St. in Chicago. The winner of the event was Jose Reymundo, a writer who attended the event with his mother, Maria Reymundo. He will advance to the statewide spelling bee hosted by the Illinois General Assem-

bly later this summer. Christian Lopez, one of Hernandez’s assistants, said Hernandez normally holds this event on her own. This year, she decided to invite Tabares to co-host the spelling bee, Lopez said. “The spelling bee this year was conducted in English,” Lopez said. “We’re thinking that next year it may be conducted in Spanish.”

Called ingenious, the murder mystery will keep the audience guessing. “I have a great cast and crew,” Wavak says. “Normally set in Wales, we decided to change the setting of the play to a remote village in central California. It takes place the week before the 1980 general elections. Hopefully, this makes the play more accessible to our audience and shows the universality of Agatha Christie’s work. However, we did leave one of the characters a Brit to honor her.”

The “Tree House” exhibition of sculpture and installation by Kathleen Thometz, all done on a miniature scale, features diminutive tree houses, forts, houseboats and mobile homes. “Everyone needs a place to get away,” Thometz says. “Even if you can’t physically enter your own hut or fort, you can mentally and emotionally by meditating on one of these tiny homes.” They deal with the need for personal space, escapism and control. Gallery hours are 1 to 5 p.m. Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday.

Restaurant reviews

Davanti Enoteca pairs wine bar with fresh fare WESTERN SPRINGS – Wine and charm flow plentifully at Davanti Enoteca, newly opened in downtown Western Springs, just north of the tracks. The place was almost full on a recent Sunday evening, but we were directed to a comfortable high top next to a window in the bar. The design pays homage to the rustic wine bars of Europe, right down to plank floors and weeping mortar that appears to drip out between the bricks behind the bar and the stone on the walls, including a semi-private area off the main dining room. That space with an impressive vaulted brick ceiling loosely evokes the atmosphere of Old World subterranean wine cellars. Hanging over the granite-topped bar are three lamps with exposed filaments that at first remind you of oversized incandescent light bulbs, until you realize they are the giant glass wine jugs you’ll spot in 19th-century Italian paintings celebrating the fruit of the vine. Another wall is fancifully covered with the lids of wooden wine crates. The Italian word Enoteca refers to a wine bar or shop, and Davanti offers an expansive selection, complemented by a full bar. Our server explained the menu features small plates meant to be shared. So we both dug into a salad of roasted beets turned decadent with a garnish of creme fraiche, accented with a melt-in-your-mouth accompaniment of walnut butter. The server said a house specialty whose flavor changes daily is the ragu served with mascarpone polenta, a comfort food favorite. Neither of us had ever eaten polenta, which is made of cornmeal, but we’re glad we were adventurous. Friends recently had tried it with lamb ragu and raved.

Surprise season By DAN SANTAROMITA dsantaromita@shawmedia.com BROOKFIELD – Expectations were high at the beginning of the season for Riverside Brookfield. They weren’t quite this high though. The Bulldogs finished off the Metro Suburban Conference title with a sweep of Elmwood Park to finish 16-2 in the league. RB had 29 wins entering Monday’s regular-season finale against Hinsdale South. “I don’t think anybody, including me or them, expected us to do this well,” said RB coach Dallas Till. “This doesn’t happen a lot. Approaching 30 victories in high school baseball whoever you’re playing is not easy. They need to cherish that and I think they are. It’s been a fun group.” Having already clinched the

MSC title May 15, RB had plenty of fun on the base paths in Thursday’s final game against Elmwood Park. The Bulldogs stole 10 bases in a 9-5 win. Leadoff hitter C.J. Duffek was as important and influential as he’s been all season. Duffek was 4-for-4 with a double, a triple, three stolen bases, an RBI and four runs scored. He also stole six bags in the series opener on Tuesday to break the school record. Duffek had 43 stolen bases entering Monday. When the Northwest Missouri State-signee gets on base opposing pitchers and defenses have to work hard to keep him from stealing and eventually scoring. Duffek isn’t the only stolen-base threat on the team. Six other Bulldogs have stolen 10 or more bases. “We’ve had quite a few this season,” Duffek said. “I love it. Coach gives me the green light whenever

MSC-champ RB surpasses expectations, sets sights on regional title

I feel that I can take a base whether it’s second or third. It’s worked out so far. We’re winning ball games.” Duffek will need to play like that for the Bulldogs to meet their second goal of the season, winning a regional. Despite a sterling record and a conference championship, the Bulldogs enter this week’s regional at Ehlert Park in Brookfield as the underdog. The No. 5-seed Bulldogs will likely have to go through No. 4 Montini, the Suburban Christian Blue winners. RB’s semifinal will take place on Thursday. “We scouted Montini a number of times and we have a pretty good idea what’s coming,” Till said. “It’s just a matter of if we can execute and prepare. “They’re not satisfied with a conference championship. We want a regional. Nothing less would be acceptable.”

Katie O’Connell threw a two-hit shutout last week to help Riverside Brookfield earn its 10th win of the season.

RIVERSIDE – The Riverside Brookfield softball team completed the regular season with a 10-20 record. The Bulldogs picked up win No. 10 on May 14 against Ridgewood. RB won 13-0 in five innings on senior day. Sophomore Katie O’Connell picked up the win with a two-hit shutout. Seniors Emma Schander and Emily Hastings had four hits each in a 16-hit explosion. The win brought RB’s final Metro Suburban Conference record to 7-5. On Saturday, the Bulldogs faced a split doubleheader with travel in between and lost both games. RB fell to West Suburban Silver-champ Downers Grove North 11-4 at home. Hastings hit a two-run home run to bring RB within 5-4 in the fifth inning, but the Trojans added some insurance runs and the Bulldogs couldn’t respond. The second game on Saturday was at the Stone City Jamboree in Minoo-

ka. RB lost to Elgin 7-2. The Bulldogs led 2-0 early but couldn’t hold the lead. The regular season was a struggle with RB carrying a younger roster than in recent seasons. Wednesday’s playoff opener, a regional semifinal against Hyde Park, will offer RB a chance to reset the season and strive for postseason glory. Hastings finished the regular season with a staggering .621 batting average and nine home runs. Schander also had a big year at the plate, hitting .473. RB hit .355 as a team.

RB qualifies 5 entries for state after move to larger class By DAN SANTAROMITA dsantaromita@shawmedia.com WESTERN SPRINGS – Moving up in class, Riverside Brookfield entered unknown territory Friday. The Bulldogs qualified six events to the state meet last year, but that was in Class 2A. This year RB headed into the Class 3A Lyons Township sectional and still sent five entries to the state meet in Charleston. David Swon qualified in the long jump and the triple jump. Lewis Rogers was RB’s other individual qualifier in the 300-meter hurdles. The 4x200 and 4x400 relays also

qualified to help RB take second to the host Lions in the team standings. “To qualify five events in 3A I feel like David is a successful Swon year,” said RB coach Tim Olson. “David Swon and Lewis Rogers stand out, but even kids that didn’t qualify were running their best times, throwing their best [distances].” Swon won the triple jump and was second in the long jump. The senior jumped personal records in both to make

his first appearance at the state meet. He missed sectionals last year due to injury and was battling an in- Lewis jury leading up Rogers to sectionals again. Swon was able to recover in time. “For the past two weeks my leg has been hurt, but this week I’ve been rehabilitating it,” he said. “It felt really good so it put me back on track.” For Rogers, qualifying was also a first. His second-place finish in the 300-meter hurdles came before he ran the

RB’s state qualifiers David Swon: Triple jump (43 feet, 6 inches); long jump (22-0) Lewis Rogers: 300-meter hurdles (40.71 seconds) 4x200 relay: (1:31.36) 4x400 relay: (3:28.04)

fastest leg of the 4x400, which also finish second to close out the sectional. “After qualifying for that my adrenaline was just pumping ready for the 400,” Rogers said. “Personally it feels better to make the relay because I’m bringing my teammates with me. The guys

I’ve been working out with all year long. Some of these guys play other sports with me so we’ve built a friendship up. It feels great to bring those guys down there.” Matt Chapp, Andrew Bell and Gerrand Moody teamed with Rogers in the 4x400. Chapp, Mike McCabe, Bell and Marvin McKenzie ran the 4x200. McKenzie qualified in the 400 last year and was seeded second at the sectional, but was recovering from a hamstring injury. Olson scratched him from that race to have him help the 4x200, a gamble that paid off for the relay.

Beating Harris in that event won’t be easy, but simply staying close to him means Mogorovic ran a good race. “He’s just ridiculous out of the blocks, but then it’s playing catch up every hurdle,” Mogorovic said. “I think if I keep following him we’ll do good at state.” Mogorovic won the 300 hurdles and was in two winning relays, the

SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA CHARLESTON – Emma Haugen wasn’t able to match her state title from a year ago in the high jump, but the Lyons Township sophomore still earned a state medal by taking second place. Haugen had edged out Huntley’s Omo Tseumah in the high jump last year when Haugen cleared 5 feet, 7 inches to top Tseumah’s 5-6. This time around, both went higher and Tseumah won on criteria. Both cleared 5-8, but couldn’t clear 5-9. Tseumah needed fewer attempts to clear 5-8 than Haugen which served as the tiebreaker. Haugen will be heavily favored to regain her title next year with Tseumah graduating. Haugen also made the triple jump finals and took 11th. In the prelims, the LT sophomore also competed in the 100-meter hurdles and placed 21st. The Lions had plenty of entries in the prelims, although none of the others made the finals. The 4x400 relay team of Jessica Fuller, Erin Szczepaniak, Kate Heinz and Sarah Kreikemeier came in 11th place. Kreikemeier, a senior, also took 13th in the 400. Other top-20 finishers were Makayla Hubbard (17th in shot put), Elaine Smith (18th in the 800) and the 4x200 relay team of Olivia Cabanban, Jessica Fuller, Luci Lussier and Jessica Stabenow (18th).

Lions pack in games before regional opener By DAN SANTAROMITA dsantaromita@shawmedia.com WESTERN SPRINGS – The conference season may be over, but Lyons Township still played a busy schedule last week to stay in rhythm for the playoffs. The Lions picked up wins over Lincoln-Way East and Morton while losing to Normal West. LT carried a 22-10 record into Monday’s regular-season finale against Hinsdale Central, which will be a nonconference game. LT coach George Ushela tries to play a tough nonconference schedule and use different pitchers along the way. This final week helped to set up the playoff rotation.

Big number 370: Wins for Lyons Township baseball under coach George Ushela since he took over in 2001

“We’re gearing up for the tournament,” Ushela said. Junior Sam Cybulski made his first pitching appearance of the season and got the start against Lincoln-Way East on May 15. He pitched three innings in an 11-1 LT win in six innings. Typical starters Keith Lehmann and Tom Prescott came on in relief. The Lions trailed 1-0 after three, but the offense exploded late. LT scored eight in the sixth inning.

Another rarely used pitcher, Max Larsen, started in Thursday’s 6-5 win over Morton. Lehmann starred at the plate going 3-for-4 with three RBIs. Lehmann pitched a complete game in Saturday’s 2-1 loss to Normal West. Each team managed just five hits and Lehmann struck out nine. Ushela was coy on what his playoff rotation might look like, but one thing was clear. “All I know is Keith is our No. 1,” Ushela said. Lehmann’s Saturday start means he is lined up to next pitch in a regional final. LT opens the playoffs today at Argo and the regional final is 11 a.m. Saturday.

4x100 and 4x400. “This was a huge confidence booster,” Mogorovic said. “You look at any guy here and not a single one of them is not happy with their performances. We had a lot of personal bests for a lot of kids that won’t be joining us at the state meet.” Mogorovic qualified with the state’s fourth-fastest time in the 300 hurdles (39.01 seconds) and said he ran a conservative race. He is hoping to leave Charleston with a firstplace medal. “Coming back from last year with the fifth place, I definitely feel like I have what it takes to get first this season,” Mogorovic said. Joining Mogorovic on the 4x400 were Jimmy Rhode, Antwan Swan and Alex Lima. Swan won the 400 ahead of Rhode to earn his first trip to state. On a day where both individuals and relays thrived for LT, Swan said the relays carry more pride. “I really like the guys on my relay,” Swan said. “We work hard every day. We push each other to do better. That’s probably my strongest event. The 400 is just my time to focus on what I need to do to prepare myself for the 4x4 to keep my form together.”

Fenwick boys water polo returns as state champ SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA LINCOLNSHIRE – After failing to get to state a season ago, Fenwick boys water polo returned to its familiar place atop the state. The Friars came in as the heavy favorite at the state tournament after getting past Lyons Township in a sectional final. Fenwick lived up to that after a comfortable 10-4 win over host Stevenson in the final. Fenwick (31-5) has won

10 of the 12 state championships since boys water polo became an official IHSA sport in 2002. This year’s is the first title since legendary coach Dave Perry died in September 2011. Fenwick cruised past Homewood-Flossmoor 13-6 in the quarterfinal. The Friars led 10-0 at halftime and got three goals each from Matt Farmer and Matt Bresnahan. Eight different Friars scored in that win. The semifinal proved to

be the toughest test. Fenwick got by Naperville North 12-10. The Huskies led 3-2 after a quarter, but that was their last lead of the game. The Friars led by as many as five in the fourth quarter and held off a late rally from North. Bresnahan had four goals to lead Fenwick. Bresnahan, Farmer, Andrew Bertschy, Trevor McLean and Justin White each scored two goals in the final.

The mother and son team make up Higgins Glass Studio, 33 E. Quincy, entrusted to the Wimmers to carry on the art crafted by their long time mentors, Fran and Michael Higgins, who began the company in 1948. Louise and Jonathan agree that it was Fran’s ideas and Michael’s energy and ingenuity that led these two huge talents to start their work out if their Chicago apartment in 1948. Over the years their art sold in such major retailers as Marshall Field’s, Georg Jensen and Bullocks Wilshire, the very high end store in the California based department store chain. In 1966, the Higgins decided to return to private studio work and set up their offices in Riverside. The website notes that “here they were free to set their own goals, meet their own standards and design in the direction their hearts and minds led them.” There’s a lot of history in Higgins, and the Wimmers are proud of their work and the company.
