Carriage Park looks futuristic

Lemont Suburban Life is the successor publication to the Lemont Reporter/Met.

LEMONT – The Lemont Park District officially welcomed its newest remodeled park with a ribbon-cutting ceremony for Carriage Park on the evening of Aug. 4. The park is located in the Woodcrest subdivision in a cul-de-sac at the east end of Blacksmith Lane. The main portion of the park is a playground for kids ages 5 to 12. The renovations give the playground a futuristic look, with a curved climbing structure and spinning seats. Children also can climb on or in the wobble sphere, which, as the name suggests, will wobble them around. As part of the renovations, there is a new table and bench for parents or families to sit. The Park District is planning another park grand reopening later this year when the renovations on Derby Park are completed.

Manufacturing base continues to decline SPRINGFIELD – When I first began covering Illinois state government, a Mitsubishi sports car could be seen sitting in the governor’s parking spot at the Capitol. The year was 1988 and the governor was James R. Thompson. VIEWS Thompson drove the Scott sports car as a point of state Reeder pride; it was made in Illinois in the then-new auto plant in Normal – a plant that Thompson helped land for Illinois. Well, that mark of state manufacturing prowess is disappearing. Mitsubishi announced last week that it is closing the plant. It is just the latest example of manufacturing jobs disappearing from a state that was once a manufacturing powerhouse. For example, South Holland-based T&B Tube announced this year it will invest $5.6 million to build a new plant in Gary, Ind. Jack Jones, president of T&B Tube, has publicly cited Illinois’ high worker’s compensation rates as a reason for making the move to Indiana. U.S. Steel Corp. also announced this year that it would be halting operations in Granite City, giving pink slips to 2,080 workers. But the company has maintained operations in Michigan, Indiana, Alabama and Pennsylvania. Romeoville-based American Stair Corp. Inc., a manufacturer of steel stairs and railings, also announced this year it will move to a new plant in Hammond, Ind., by the end of the year. This will net about 200 new manufacturing jobs for the border community. But those are just recent announcements. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, over the past 20 years, the Land of Lincoln has lost 35 percent of its factory jobs. That’s 311,000 places on assembly lines that have vanished. Some of those jobs have been lost to international competition and greater automation. But many jobs have simply migrated to other states. “There really isn’t anything that we haven’t talked about over and over,” said Kim Clarke Maisch, president of the Illinois chapter of the National Federation of Independent Businesses. “What I hear from my members is that the cost of worker’s compensation is just way too high in Illinois. Sure, there were some reforms in 2011, but the state is nowhere near where it needs to be to be competitive.” Just consider: The workers compensation insurance premium in Illinois is 12.9 percent of payroll for carmakers. That’s compared to 3.9 percent in Indiana and 3 percent in Michigan.

OUR VIEW

Keep negotiations in governor’s hands Illinois voters elected Bruce Rauner knowing full well his stance on organized labor and with the expectation that he would negotiate with the state’s labor unions. A legislative proposal vetoed by the governor in July and now up for an override vote would take that power out of the governor’s hands and into those of an arbitrator. It would be a mistake. The legislative proposal, S.B. 1229, would provide for a panel of three arbitrators to consider the proposals put forward by the union and the state. They could choose elements of either, but could not modify them to forge a compromise. The legislation is targeted specifically at Rauner, applying only to contracts that expired June 30 of this year. The major union representing state employees in Illinois is the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, or AFSCME. In Illinois, almost 40,000 state workers are represented by AFSCME. Its negotiators are seeking an 11.5 percent pay increase for employees over a new fouryear contract. Rauner said AFSCME’s contract proposal would cost the state $1.6 billion in salary and pension expenses and eliminate $500 million in health care savings. The administration said the union also wants five weeks of vacation time, a 37.5-hour workweek and more expensive health benefits. Rauner, citing the disastrous condition of the state’s finances, wants the workers to agree to a four-year pay freeze.

Scott Reeder is a veteran statehouse reporter and a journalist with Illinois News Network, a project of the Illinois Policy Institute. He can be reached at sreeder@illinoispolicy.org.

It’s clear that the threat of a strike is on the mind of Rauner; his team has been working on contingency plans in the event of a strike, which the sides have agreed will not happen between now and the end of September. But why would we want to take the power to negotiate out of the hands of our elected chief executive and turn it over to an arbitrator who is accountable to no one? That’s the kind of backroom dealing that got Illinois where it is in the first place. Rauner, a venture capitalist and multi-millionaire making his first foray into public service, was upfront about his desire to reduce union influence and hold the line on labor costs in Illinois in light of the state’s dire financial situation. Illinois voters elected Rauner overwhelmingly, some of them no doubt in hopes that he would do just that. We want negotiations between the state and its unions to be both transparent and fair. Those making the decisions should be accountable to the taxpayers whose money they are spending. Overriding Rauner’s veto of S.B. 1229 would do the opposite. Our state legislators should let it stand. It is time everyone in Springfield, from lawmakers to state employees, face reality: Illinois is broke, and its people are not willing to pay more until they see serious commitment to changing the broken system that got us here.

Press Continues Scoring as Chicago Draws 2-2 with FCKC Late Hagen equalizer prevents Red Stars win over defending NWSL champs Lisle, Ill. – Saturday evening saw the Red Stars come away with a tie for the second game in a row after facing a fellow NWSL title contender. Christen Press impressed packed stadium by scoring a brace, with both assists coming from fellow World Cup winner Lori Chalupny. However, it wasn’t enough for the Red Stars, who saw their goals rendered null by FCKC’s Amy LePeilbet and Sarah Hagen, whose late equalizer earned a point for the defending champions. Playing in front of their second consecutive sellout crowd at home, the Red Stars took the lead in the 12th minute of the match with a well-timed assist from Lori Chalupny who sent the ball over the defense for Press to run on to. The forward took one touch and got around the keeper to tap the ball into an open net. The visitors from Kansas tied the score in the 35th minute, as veterean Amy LePeilbet headed in Lauren Holiday’s corner kick. FCKC could have turned the match around three minutes from the break, Red Stars defender Abby Erceg’s professional foul keeping Amy Rodriguez from sprinting on to a through ball from midfield. Fortunately for the Chicago center back, referee Matthew Franz cautioned her with a yellow card on the play and Yael Averbuch curled the ensuing free-kick from the edge of the box just over the frame. The fans at Benedictine University in Lisle had to wait until the 64th minute for the next big spike in the action, and Michele Dalton delivered in a big way, coming up with back-toback spectacular saves. First the Chicago goalkeeper palmed Heather O’Reilly’s long-range shot over the frame in an impressive fashion. Then she back pedaled on the subsequent corner kick from the right and leapt up, tipping

the attempt over the crossbar just in time to keep Lauren Holiday from scoring directly. Press gave the Red Stars the lead in the 74th minute. The second goal yet again came from a Chalupny assist- the forward received the ball with her back to goal and looked to have no options, but a quick turn and some precise footwork allowed her to lose her mark and send the ball curling into the upper 90 for the go ahead goal. It was her eighth strike in just six games this season. The spectacular strike visibly lifted Head Coach Rory Dames’ squad, which came agonizingly close to doubling its advantage four minutes later. After rookie Danielle Colaprico blasted a shot off the bar from just outside the area, Alyssa Mautz pounced on the rebound to drive a first-time attempt on frame that forced Rowland to dive to her right and deflect the ball wide by way of an excellent fingertip save. Just as it seemed like the Red Stars might be able to hold on for a massive win over the defending NWSL champions, substitute Sarah Hagen had other plans, beating a defender to the ball in the box to head home O’Reilly’s signature cross from the right flank. The home side could have reclaimed its advantage deep inside stoppage time, but the referee’s whistle remained silent on what looked like a potential handball by FCKC defender Sauerbrunn to block substitute Vanessa DiBernardo’s cross in from the right. The Chicago Red Stars travel to take on mighty Portland Thorns FC on August 9. The club’s next home match is an August 12 clash with Sky Blue FC.

I would like to thank the people last week for comments made about teacher salaries. I especially am grateful to the person who is not a teacher but sees the efforts put forth by educators. That was the best gift I could have received as the school year begins!

Q&A

By SCOTT SCHMID

About Tim McAuliffe

sschmid@shawmedia.com

COLLEGE: Bowling Green POSITION: Center YEAR: Redshirt sophomore HIGH SCHOOL: Lemont ence and showed what I need to improve on. Schmid: Was it a big transition going from high school to college? McAuliffe: It was huge, definitely a big jump. The speed obviously picks up and everyone is an elite player. Everyone is a Division I athlete and there is really great competition every day. You have to show up every day. You can’t take days or plays off. Schmid: Having said that, how did playing for Lemont prepare you for the next level? McAuliffe: We had a really great coaching staff at Lemont. Coach [Eric] Michaelsen did a great job. Look at Lemont the past 10 years, we’ve had a lot of Division I offensive lineman come out of there, so they are doing something right. And I think it really showed; there was definitely a learning curve [when I got to Bowling Green], but I picked some stuff up pretty quickly.

Schmid: What has your summer consisted of thus far? McAuliffe: We’ve been training all summer; I got back to Bowling Green on June 1. I’m also taking one class [economics]. It’s a six-week course. Schmid: Are you looking forward to the 2015 season? What are your thoughts on the team? McAuliffe: I’m really excited about the team. We have 11 starters returning on offense; not every guy started every game but there are 11 guys that have starting experience. So we have a lot of talent coming back. We have less experience on defense, but we have a new defensive coordinator and I really like the stuff they were doing in the spring. Schmid: How special was it to be named to the Rimington Award watch list along with former teammate Ethan Pocic? McAuliffe: It’s always nice to get recognition, especial-

A three-time all-conference selection while at Lemont High School, Tim McAuliffe redshirted his first year at Bowling Green before becoming a full-time starter at center for the Falcons last fall. Heading into this season, the 6-foot, 275-pounder has been named to the Rimington Award preseason watch list; the award is given to the nation’s top center. Also on that list is former Lemont teammate Ethan Pocic. Before starting preparations for the college football season, McAuliffe spoke with Suburban Life sports reporter Scott Schmid about being on the Rimington watch list, his first season as a starter last year, and the Falcons’ prospects for 2015.

he college football season is about to officially begin as teams soon will be reporting for preseason practices ahead of the

Jack Allen

Area football players shining at college level season kickoff. Several players from area high schools will be hitting the field and making an impact for programs across the NCAA Division I Football Bowl Subdivision landscape. Here are a few players to keep an eye on this season. Rob Bain

COLLEGE: Michigan State YEAR: Senior HIGH SCHOOL: Hinsdale Central IMPACT: Allen enters his fourth year as a starter on the Spartans’ offensive line after redshirting in 2011. As a junior, the 6-foot-2, 295-pounder was selected as a first-team All-American by USA Today and also was named one of six finalists for the Rimington Award, given to the nation’s most outstanding center. Allen didn’t allow a sack all season and figures to be a mainstay on the line this season.

COLLEGE: Illinois YEAR: Junior HIGH SCHOOL: Bolingbrook IMPACT: Part of Bolingbrook’s state championship team in 2011, Bain has played a bigger role for the Illini each season after taking a redshirt season in 2012. The 2014 season was Bain’s most productive yet. The defensive lineman played in all 13 games, starting seven, and finished the season with 29 total tackles, including four for loss and one sack. In his first career start against Purdue, he recorded six tackles. He will be looking to build off that production this fall.

COLLEGE: Stanford YEAR: Senior HIGH SCHOOL: Glenbard West IMPACT: The 6-foot-4, 297-pound guard heads into his senior campaign this fall as a vital cog on the offensive line. Caspers played in 13 games in 2014, starting 12 of them, and was a Pac-12 All-Academic second-team selection. He also saw action in 14 games as a sophomore and again was a Pac-12 All-Academic second-team pick. Based on his successful 2014, Caspers figures to be a big key to Stanford’s success this fall.

COLLEGE: UConn YEAR: Sophomore HIGH SCHOOL: Downers Grove North IMPACT: Diggs got his feet wet at the collegiate level in 2014, playing in all 12 games for the Huskies as a true freshman. Seeing time as both a linebacker and on special teams, the 6-foot-2, 215-pounder finished with 10 tackles on the season, including a season-high four tackles against SMU on Dec. 6. Diggs could have a major impact on the Huskies’ defense this season.

COLLEGE: Northwestern YEAR: Junior HIGH SCHOOL: Lyons Township IMPACT: Harris started all 12 games last fall at cornerback and finished in a tie for 13th in the Big Ten with nine pass breakups. He was third on the Wildcats in tackles with 70 (58 solos and 12 assists) and notched interceptions against Illinois and Michigan while forcing a pair of fumbles. The junior was an Academic All-Big Ten selection and could be an even bigger force for the Wildcats this fall.

COLLEGE: Northwestern YEAR: Sophomore HIGH SCHOOL: Glenbard North IMPACT: The running back burst onto the collegiate scene as a true freshman and earned Honorable Mention All-Big Ten accolades in 2014. Jackson became the 16th player in program history to record a 1,000-yard rushing season, finishing with 1,187 yards and 10 touchdowns. He also caught 22 passes for 201 yards and an additional score and is looking to be just as productive this fall.

Dan Vitale

COLLEGE: LSU YEAR: Junior HIGH SCHOOL: Lemont IMPACT: The junior is ticketed to start at center for the Tigers this fall and has been named to the Rimington Award Watch List, which is an award given to the most outstanding center in NCAA Division I Football Bowl Subdivision. Pocic started all 12 games as a sophomore in 2014, playing both center and right guard. The 6-foot-7, 300-pounder also played in six contests as a freshman.

COLLEGE: Northwestern YEAR: Senior HIGH SCHOOL: Wheaton Warrenville South IMPACT: He enters the final season of what has turned out to be an outstanding college career. After entering the lineup as a true freshman in 2012, Vitale started all 12 games at superback in each of the past two years. As a junior, Vitale was an Honorable Mention All-Big Ten pick after being second on Northwestern with 40 catches for 402 yards and two touchdowns and could be a key offensive player this season.

Jordan Walsh

SCHOOL: Iowa YEAR: Senior HIGH SCHOOL: Glenbard West IMPACT: A veteran on the offensive line for the Hawkeyes, the Glenbard West graduate is set to begin his senior season. Walsh played in 12 games a year ago with 10 starts at right guard. The 6-foot-4, 290-pounder started all 13 contests as a sophomore and also played in seven games as a freshman after redshirting in 2011.

Jordan Westerkamp

COLLEGE: Nebraska YEAR: Junior HIGH SCHOOL: Montini IMPACT: After catching 20 passes for 283 yards as a redshirt freshman in 2013, Westerkamp saw his numbers more than double last fall. The wide receiver played in all 13 games for the Huskers and was second on the team with 44 receptions for 747 yards and five touchdowns. The junior also is a two-time Academic All-Big Ten pick.

COLLEGE: Illinois YEAR: Senior HIGH SCHOOL: Lemont IMPACT: After starting his collegiate football career at St. Xavier University, an NAIA school in Chicago, Fejedelem walked on at Illinois in the spring of 2013 and took a redshirt season that fall, then broke out with a productive 2014 season. He played in all 13 games and finished the season with 51 total tackles, two pass breakups and a fumble recovery against Ohio State. He could be a major piece in the defensive secondary this season.

SPORTS |

COLLEGE: Memphis YEAR: Junior HIGH SCHOOL: Lyons Township IMPACT: Ranked eighth all-time at Memphis with 192 career points, he also holds the program record for longest field goal after kicking a 56-yarder against South Florida as a freshman. During Elliott’s first two years, he connected on all 81 of his point-after tries while making 37 of 50 field goals. The Tigers went 10-3 last season.
