VILLA PARK – Villa Park residents in need of a library card now have the option to choose from two award-winning designs in addition to the traditional card, according to a village news release. Villa Park students Ruby Kingji and Queen Grace Bantugan won the first Villa Park Public Library card design contest. Ruby and Queen Grace were selected from more than 40 entries in two grade divisions during the contest in September for National Library Card Sign-Up Month. A panel of judges made up of Village President Deborah Bullwinkel, Director of Economic Development Jan Fiola, President of the Friends of Villa Park Library Meredith Meder, Villa Park Public Library Director Sandra
Hill and retired art teacher Bob Fritz chose the finalists. The public also was invited to cast votes to help choose between two designs the judges had selected in the kindergarten through 6th grade division. Ruby, 5, who attends Montessori Children’s Academy in Villa Park, ultimately won that division with her colorful design illustrating the slogan, “Books make life beautiful.” Willowbrook High School student, Queen Grace, 16, depicted her card as a key to the adventures readers experience through books. Queen Grace’s design won the 7th through 12th grade division. The winners each received an iPad Mini donated by the Friends of Villa Park Library, and they were recognized by the Villa Park Village Board during its Jan. 12 meeting.

LOMBARD – With 2014 in the rearview mirror, Lombard hosted its State of the Village address Wednesday, providing Village President Keith Giagnorio and guests an opportunity to reflect on the accomplishments of the past year. Giagnorio discussed some of the most significant developments in the way of business, infrastructure and more to a room filled with members of the Lombard Area Chamber of Commerce and Industry at the Westin Lombard Yorktown Center. “If you come away with anything from today’s presentation, I hope it is this: State of our village is strong,” Giagnorio said. “It is strong because we are all partners in mutual success. It is strong because we have worked together to achieve that success. It is strong because we share the same vision for Lombard: to be the greatest place to raise a family, educate our children and enjoy the greatest quality of life possible.” Here are some highlights from the village president’s talk:

Bonds to fund facility projects in District 45 By MARY BETH VERSACI mversaci@shawmedia.com In order to fund facility projects across its schools, School District 45 will issue $7 million in bonds by April 21. The district’s Board of Education voted unanimously Tuesday to allow staff to issue the bonds, which will not increase the property taxes of residents living within the district. However, the bonds will extend the district’s debt by three years to 2033, said Vickie Nissen, assistant superintendent for finance. Without the bond issuance, taxes would have decreased for those three years, but instead they will remain at the same level, Nissen said. Prior to the board’s vote, a public hearing was conducted to gather input from residents on the issuance. No one addressed the board. Discussions began in the fall to identify facility needs at district schools and the best way to fund the needed projects, Nissen said. So far, District 45 is prepared to move forward with one project: the replacement of portions of the roof at Westmore Elementary School in Lombard. This work is expected to cost about $390,000, although the district

While a meeting goes on Thursday in the Jackson Middle School LRC, computer stations are idle. Configuration of the space can limit flexible use for computer learning and research. will not go out to bid until the bonds to fund the project have been issued. The roof work likely will start in June. Other potential projects discussed by District 45 include parking lot repairs, new flooring, kitchen and learning resource center renovations, and more. It’s undecided at this point which of the projects will be funded by the bonds. “They’ve been identified but not prioritized,” Nissen said.
MARK YOUR CALENDAR!!!
The rest of the projects are expected to be prioritized by the end of the current fiscal year June 30. The district will spend the $7 million during the course of three years. At Tuesday’s meeting, the Board of Education also unanimously approved a contract not to exceed $76,000 with BrainSpaces Inc., a consulting firm that combines architectural and educational experience to plan and design learning environments.
BrainSpaces will help District 45 evaluate how it’s using its facilities in light of the lack of space it has for the students it serves, Nissen said. The findings of the firm may help the district prioritize the needed projects it has already identified, she said. A BrainSpaces representative is expected to attend the district’s next Facilities Planning Committee meeting Tuesday. Although the board members all voted in favor of the contract, some voiced concerns prior to the vote. “Whenever we do something like this, it is a lot of money for a service,” said board Secretary Jerry Bimber, seeking assurance from staff that the district is confident with what the final product will be from BrainSpaces. Board member Tracy Vroman asked whether plans developed with the help of BrainSpaces would come to fruition. “There’s a lot of plans and we spend lots of money on plans, but what are the realities of those actually happening?” Vroman said. Nissen said District 45 could pursue solutions presented by BrainSpaces, if those ideas are agreeable with the board. “We’re looking at all options,” she said.

Legislators respond to COD buyout of Breuder By EVAN SHIELDS eshields@shawmedia.com Illinois Senate Democrats announced the formation of a new subcommittee to investigate executive compensation at public institutions in a news release Feb. 11. The announcement comes in the wake of the fallout following the approval of a massive severance package for Col- Robert lege of DuPage President Breuder Robert Breuder. The subcommittee will be part of the Senate Higher Education Committee and will steer reform efforts and ensure tuition and tax dollars are used responsibly. It will have three members: Bill Cunningham, D-Chicago; Dan Kotowski, D-Park Ridge; and a Republican who has yet to be selected, according to John Patterson, director of communications for the Illinois Senate Democrats. “Taxpayers are demanding to know how we compensate administrators, why we are compensating them and what safeguards we can put in place to end the type of abuses we’ve recently
“This money could be better spent on providing an affordable, world-class-college education for students. It could be used to offer much needed tuition relief for families. Taxpayers cannot afford to pay for six-figure golden parachutes, shooting club memberships and other lavish perks for public servants.” Dan Kotowski D-Park Ridge
seen,” Cunningham, who will head the subcommittee, said in the release. The issue was thrust into the spotlight when the College of DuPage Board of Trustees voted 6-1 to approve a $762,000 buyout for Breuder, who will retire March 31, 2016 – three years earlier than anticipated. The college will also name its new Homeland Security Education Center after him. The vote drew outrage from the public, as 400 people attended a board meeting in January about the severance package. Board Chairwoman Erin Birt said at the meeting the board quantified 1.5 years of Breuder’s salary and benefits when coming to the agreement. “This money could be better spent
on providing an affordable, world-classcollege education for students. It could be used to offer much needed tuition relief for families,” said Kotowski in the release. “Taxpayers cannot afford to pay for six-figure golden parachutes, shooting club memberships and other lavish perks for public servants.” Several local representatives are looking at legislation regarding Breuder’s buyout and others want to prevent similar severance packages in the future. Rep. Jeanne Ives, R-Wheaton, filed two resolutions related to the buyout. The first is a request for the Illinois Auditor General to perform an audit of the college’s state funding from the past three fiscal years. After Ives’ re-
quest, the college asked the auditor general to move forward with the audit prior to receiving legislative approval. Ives also is sponsoring a resolution urging trustees to reconsider the buyout and the building naming. At the January meeting, several members of the public expressed an interest in naming the building after Staff Sgt. Robert J. Miller, a Wheaton native awarded the Medal of Honor after dying in combat in Afghanistan. Rep. Peter Breen, R-Lombard, announced earlier this month he would introduce legislation known as the Breuder Rule, which would ban excessive severance packages at public institutions. At a House Republicans news conference after the buyout was approved, Rep. Ron Sandack, R-Downers Grove, announced he would pursue legislation banning the use of state money in such severance packages. At the news conference, legislators also announced other possible laws including cuts in state funding for the college and reductions in the length of board trustees’ terms, which are currently six years. When reached for comment, college spokesman Joe Moore declined.

D-87 to host athletic code changes forum SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA GLEN ELLYN – Glenbard Township High School District 87 will host a community forum next month to discuss changes to its athletic code. The forum will be from 6 to 7:30 p.m. March 18 at the administration center, 596 Crescent Blvd. During the first half of the meeting, the policy committee will lay out the work that has been done to the athletic code so far. The second half will be an opportunity for the public to provide feedback on the changes. The public input will be considered by the committee at its April 13 meeting. The committee has been reviewing the proposed changes for the past few months. The revisions came after the Board of Education denied overturning suspensions for student athletes caught at a party in June where alcohol was being served. Some students received yearlong suspensions, and parents asked the board to examine a policy they deemed too harsh. In a November note to the community on the district’s website, Superintendent David Larson said the board would look at the athletic code in an effort to “continue to be fair, consistent and adhere to best practices.”

Lombard’s budget is balanced, and this year’s general fund budget reduces spending by about 3 percent. Although the city of Chicago imposed a water rate increase on the village, Lombard’s utility rates still remain below average compared to other communities in the region.
Eye on events The village will pursue the formation of the Lombard Pride Committee to oversee village events to ensure they reflect Lombard’s character. Giagnorio hopes to get the committee started as soon as possible and attract interested community members from all backgrounds to get involved. The committee will help to guide the village as it decides the best way to move forward with a summer festival in the future, in light of the cancellation of the Taste of Lombard because of the dissolution of the Lombard Jaycees.

SUNGLASSES IN WINTER Sunglasses are designed to protect the eyes from the sun’s rays year-round. The fact is that ultraviolet (UV) light poses a danger to eyes due to exposure accumulated at any time of the year. Protecting eyes from UV exposure at all times helps decrease the risk of cataract formation, pterygium (fleshy growths on the surface of the eye), and eye cancers. Moreover, glare is as much a problem for drivers, skiers, and outdoor enthusiasts as it is for boaters, beachgoers, and vacationers. Sunglasses help to virtually eliminate this problem during the entire course of the year. With this in mind, sunglasses have as much a place in a winter wardrobe as they do with bathing suits and cycling gear.

Vision 20/20 aims to transform schools At District 88, our mission is to work for the continuous improvement of student achievement. As part of that mission, we continue to stay informed about and up to date with policies, laws and programs that impact our students to ensure we maintain a high-quality educational environment. One of our education initiatives is to support Vision COMMUNITY 20/20. A coalition of profesVOICE sional education organizations Scott in Illinois is proposing this visioning process, with the goal Helton to unite the education community and develop a long-range blueprint for improving public education in Illinois. The vision is comprised of four areas for prioritization, which are: Highly effective educators: By attracting, developing and retaining the best educators in Illinois, we can have a positive impact on student learning. This goal would be accomplished through recruiting and retaining high-impact educators and providing relevant professional development. 21st-century learning: Vision 20/20 focuses on expanding the definition of student learning, committing to the development of the “whole child” and investing in policies proven to link all schools to 21st-century learning tools. We must always provide our students with an education that is focused on what they will need in the future, not just today. This goal would be accomplished through preserving instructional time, investing in early childhood education, linking students to college and careers and expanding equity in technology access. Shared accountability: According to Vision 20/20, a quality education for all Illinois students cannot be ensured without the collaboration, compromise and hard work of educators and legislators. The initiative seeks to expand educator responsibility in the legislative process, create a shared accountability model and restructure mandates to allow local districts more flexibility. Equitable and adequate funding: A focus of Vision 20/20 is to improve equity in the funding model, appropriate adequate dollars for education and allow local school districts the autonomy needed to increase efficiency. This goal would be accomplished through funding education based on local need, stabilizing state funding for education and enhancing district flexibility to increase financial efficiency. We will continue to provide updates regarding Vision 20/20 and other education initiatives and how those programs would impact District 88. For information, visit illinoisvision2020.org.

Too much focus on polls Our political campaigns have become too expensive and much too long. There is some value for the voter in the televised debates. At least we can learn what positions the candidates have on certain issues. But the TV media does focus too much on polls and pollsters. It can always find a poll somewhere that will support its agenda, and then it becomes the news. Is everyone watching?

Jeep Wrangler and Dodge Charger Win 2015 Best Resale Value Awards SPONSORED BY
Bag initiative is not a new idea This is not a new issue. Developing countries, such as Mongolia, have attached small fees to plastic bag usage for quite a while. Very progressive. Of course, European nations have encouraged reusable bag use for a long time. It has even inspired a whole new fashion in tote bags. Our village should find creative ways to discourage disposable plastic bag usage [and] find solutions to many other environmental issues that can contribute to our community’s well-being.
Elmhurst parking tip Did you know that Elmhurst has seven “municipal parking holidays” that include New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, July 4, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, the day after Thanksgiving and Christmas? Martin Luther King Jr. Day, which is a federal holiday, is not included in this list. I found this out when I received a parking ticket that Monday. Thought I’d pass this information on.

By Denise Freese Resale value is an important component to consider when choosing a vehicle to buy. A higher resale value maximizes your investment in the vehicle, enhances the vehicle’s reputation, and makes the selling process both quick and smooth, as your vehicle will be in high demand. Kelley Blue Book is a vehicle valuation and information source that is trusted and relied upon by both consumers and the automotive industry, according to www.media.chrysler.com. The company’s website, www.kbb.com, is a popular resource that publishes up-to-date tradein values and fair purchase prices for any vehicle. KBB offers prestigious awards to honor vehicles that are expected to maintain the highest proportion of their original list price after five years of ownership. According to Eric Ibara, Director of Resid-
ual Value Consulting for Kelley Blue Book, the entire list of Top 10 Best Resale Value vehicles is dominated in 2015 by trucks, SUVs, and crossovers, which indicates these categories’ strength for the future. For 2015, the Jeep Wrangler Unlimited won two awards for Best Resale Value; it was named on both the Top 10 and the Mid-Size SUV/Crossover lists. This is the fourth consecutive year that Jeep Wrangler has been named Best Resale Value in its class, and the fifth consecutive year it has been ranked on the Top 10 list. More than seven decades of 4X4 engineering experience contribute to the vehicle’s popularity and success. The 2015 Dodge Charger also earned a Best Resale Value award, in the Full-Size Car category. The newly restyled Charger is the most successful and fastest fourdoor muscle car on the market, delivering outstanding performance and technology. The awe-inspiring Hellcat version is a fantastic addition to the Charger lineup.

The murder of American hostages by Muslim extremists is terrible. How does the U.S.A. stop this? First, imagine how a President Roosevelt, Eisenhower or Reagan might have responded to such murders. Immediate carpet bombing of manufacturing centers and terrorist enclaves is a good guess. With today’s technology, enhanced security and pin-point retaliatory capability, a terrorist group would be certain of self-destruction, ordered by presidents who cared more about the safety of American citizens than political correctness.

What happened to the children of Jackie Robinson West is shameful. Those children played their best. They did everything they were supposed to do. The adults let them down! I hope those coaches are banned from ever coaching again. To them, it was more important to win than show the boys that honesty and integrity are what counts. Imagine the hurt the coaches have caused these boys. I just hope the boys can see this for what it is and not let it destroy their hopes and dreams.

Sanguinetti, Cronin to lead consolidation task force By NATHAN LURZ nlurz@shawmedia.com Government consolidation, DuPage style, may be coming to counties across the state. Gov. Bruce Rauner signed Executive Order 15-15 to form the new Local Government Consolidation and Unfunded Mandate Task Force headed by Wheaton resident and Lt. Gov. Evelyn Pacino Sanguinetti during a news conference Feb. 13 at the DuPage Water Commission in Elmhurst. Rauner called it an “exciting step towards turning our state around.” “We need to encourage the streamlining of local governments and of school districts to reduce costs and be good stewards of taxpayer dollars,” he said. “The [task force] will get the conversation started on how to streamline [and] end duplicative services and improve efficiency.” Rauner has previously praised consolidation efforts in DuPage, most notably in his State of the State address Feb. 4. DuPage County Board Chairman Dan Cronin, who said he will play a leadership role in the task force, spoke

To view video of Gov. Bruce Rauner speaking Friday in Elmhurst, visit http://shawurl.com/1qcp. at the news conference, calling DuPage a laboratory for consolidation. The county projects more than $100 million in savings from its Accountability, Consolidation and Transparency Initiative, which Cronin started in 2010. While Cronin said the county’s approach to consolidation isn’t one size fits all, he believes its principles could be transferred statewide. “Imagine the savings if we could repeat that success story in 100 other counties throughout Illinois,” Cronin said. Rauner said the government contraction would have to come without compromising the important services local districts provide. The governor’s order came just days before he presented his budget proposal to the General Assembly in the face of massive debt and revenue problems.

Jim Zay County board member
300 building code violations on its grounds. Many of the violations have already been addressed, DuPage County Fair Association Treasurer Jim McGuire said in January, but work remained. Should the authority be dissolved, the Fair Association would likely receive the about $240,000 the authority had in reserves as well as be the $204,000 the authority receives from the Department of Agriculture each year. County Board member Jim Zay publicly brought up the idea during a Feb. 10 County Board meeting after speaking to Cronin about it, Zay said. “We’re the only county in the state that has a fair authority and a fair association, every other county has a fair association,” he said. “So why do we

ROBERTO’S
need that extra layer? We don’t.” Mike Formento, chairman of the authority, said he supported shutting down the body. Originally, the authority was set up in the 1980s to be a watchdog of sorts over the money, eventually take over the fair and also eventually accumulate dollars for future real estate development. The real estate angle never developed, the association remains in control of the fair and Formento said he believed the association could serve as its own check and balance. “We served our purpose,” he said. “We have very, very limited funds on hand which should be used now to assist in making whatever improvements need to be done at the fairgrounds themselves.” The seven members of the fair
authority are unpaid. Cronin said the issue had been a concern for years, and it was time for a serious look. He said he believed a 2013 state law giving the board the ability to eliminate 13 local government entities extended to the authority. The county had previously dissolved a fire protection district in spring 2014. “We’ve been concerned about the buildings and the economic viability of the fair as it currently exists for some time now – it all seems to be coming together,” he said. He believed the board could take action as soon as August after ensuring the county or association could still receive the state funds. While he hoped the fair could continue, Formento said he wasn’t sure if the Department of Agriculture would continue its funding due to the state’s economic problems. Should that dry up, the fact the association’s lease was up soon may not matter as it would be hard to continue the fair in its current form. “It would be regrettable to see the fair go away, but like all things that may end up being the alternative that may be available,” he said.

The latest DuPage County consolidation effort may funnel some much-needed cash into the hands of the County Fairgrounds. County Board Chairman Dan Cronin confirmed the county was looking at dissolving the DuPage Fair and Exposition Authority. The organization is charged with receiving and distributing annual payments from the Illinois Department of Agriculture to the DuPage Fair Association to put on the five-day summer county fair. Cronin said the authority was an unnecessary layer of government. “I always was prepared to dissolve the authority, but we wanted to make sure there was a clearer picture about the condition of the buildings and what the future of the fair might be,” he said. The Fair Association’s lease for the grounds is up in 2020, which has led county officials to look into what they should do with the property and fair. The county recently received a report detailing suggestions for the future of the fairgrounds as well as more than
“We’re the only county in the state that has a fair authority and a fair association, every other county has a fair association. So why do we need that extra layer? We don’t.”

CrossFit incorporates high interval training, Olympic weightlifting, plyometric kettle ball lifting, gymnastic, calisthenics and more.

KEYNOTE SPONSOR
Everyone has a starting point. Whether you are a novice or experienced athlete, we all are looking to improve in one way or another. That improvement might be to lose weight, to place in your age group in a local or national race, or simply to improve your fitness. Setting goals will give you motivation and boosts selfconfidence. Having those goals, adjusting, and learning how to set them can help you achieve them. Ryan Giuliano started from not knowing how to swim in college to becoming the top ranked amateur Ironman athlete in the world in 2015. It has required him to set many short term and long term goals and keeping motivated and disciplined to attain them. He will discuss how to plan goals out and follow through to meet them.

requirements for qualified borrowers. Myth: If you owe a lot of student loan debt, there is no way you can get a mortgage. Reality: Don’t assume that having a lot of student loan debt automatically disqualifies you from getting a mortgage. The key factor is not necessarily the size of your loan obligation, but the amount of your total monthly debt payments compared to your monthly income. This is called DTI. imortgage, for example, has approved thousands of loans to first-time buyers whose monthly student loan payments were as high as $300, and many more could qualify by increasing their monthly income. Myth: If your credit score is low, you should not even try to get a mortgage. Reality: Millions of potential buyers assume they will not be approved for a mortgage even though many could qualify, according to a national survey commissioned by loanDepot LLC. Today, median FICO scores for mortgages to buy a home are 683 for FHA loans and 754 for conventional loans. But hundreds of thousands of buyers with scores lower than those are getting mortgages if they have good income and low levels of debt. Myth: Buying a home isn’t a good investment. Reality: Real estate, like other assets, rises and falls based on supply and demand. Over the past two years, home values in most markets have been rising. While all real estate is local, if you
bought a home in March 2012, by August 2014 the national median home price as measured by Case-Shiller had risen 29.6 percent. Myth: The mortgage-interest tax deduction is going away. Reality: Though the deduction has its critics, most observers believe it is unlikely that Congress will eliminate the mortgage interest deduction any time soon. Many states also allow homeowners to write off the interest they pay on their mortgages from their state income taxes. Check with your accountant or CPA on if you can qualify for this type of tax deduction. Myth: I’m about to get married and the wedding is so expensive I won’t be able to buy a home. Reality: According to TheKnot, the average wedding has 138 guests who typically give a gift valued at $100 each. That’s $13,800 in spatulas, baking pans and other things. If every guest contributed to a Down Payment Fund, you could have enough saved for a down payment on a $276,000 home in San Diego. “These are just a few of the myths about home buying that surface frequently in our conversations with first-time buyers,” says Thompson. “I always advise potential buyers, especially first- time buyers, to get in touch with one of our local imortgage loan officers if they’re interested in straight answers to specific questions about financing a home. We are here to help.”

(BPT) - When buying a first home, most people are making one of the biggest purchases of their lives. Without home buying experience, it’s hard to separate fact from fiction. “Buying a first home can be exciting and stressful for most young buyers, especially the financing process,” says Clete Thompson, vice president at imortgage, a division of loanDepot LLC. “There’s a lot of paperwork, many choices, and sometimes budgets don’t stretch very far. Our licensed loan officers specialize in helping first-time buyers navigate the home finance process, which can be stressful if you’re not working with a seasoned professional.” To help first-time buyers, the experts at imortgage are uncovering prevalent myths about financing a home purchase: Myth: It takes a 20 percent down payment to buy a home. Reality: Required down payment amounts vary by type of loan and they are on average much smaller than people think. Last year, the median down payment for all first-time buyers was 6 percent, according to the National Association of Realtors. One reason is that many first-time buyers use FHA loans, which require down payments as low as 3 to 3.5 percent. VA loans require nothing down for qualified veterans or active military personnel. If you want to take out a conventional loan, many lenders do require 20 percent down, but you can lower that percentage with private mortgage insurance. There are also hundreds of down payment assistance programs that eliminate or reduce down payment

Willowbrook’s Kevin Miller passes the ball Feb. 6 in a home game against Morton. Miller had 10 points and eight rebounds Tuesday in a 96-94 win against Proviso East.
Willowbrook close to striking Gold By DAN SANTAROMITA dsantaromita@shawmedia.com VILLA PARK – Willowbrook’s boys basketball team has won close games in seemingly every way this season. Overtime, come-from-behind, down to the final shot. Add high-scoring shootout to the list. The Warriors beat Proviso East 9694 to extend their winning streak to 14 games. Sophomore sensation Alonzo Verge Jr. dropped 41 points on the Pirates in an incredibly high-tempo game. “This has been fun,” Verge said. “I love playing with my teammates. We’re getting better chemistry every day.” Willowbrook (20-6, 8-3 West Suburban Gold) beat Downers Grove South 74-58 Saturday, the fifth win during the streak that came by double digits. Tuesday’s win against the Pirates kept the Warriors tied with Morton atop the conference.
Both teams play tonight to close out conference play. Willowbrook hosts Leyden. The Eagles are the last team to beat Willowbrook, but also a team the Warriors beat during the streak, 57-55 in overtime Jan. 23 in Franklin Park. Morton hosts Proviso East. “It means everything,” Verge said of winning conference. “It hasn’t been done in a long time so we’re trying to make that accomplishment.” The Proviso East game was backand-forth. Willowbrook led 15-6 early, but the Pirates took a 36-26 lead midway through the second quarter. The teams were tied at 61-61 after three quarters, and that’s when the game picked up. There were 68 combined points in the fourth quarter alone. The Pirates led 7568 before Willowbrook surged ahead 8677, but even that lead wasn’t safe. Proviso East regained a 94-93 lead in the final minute before two free throws by Verge and a crucial charge taken by Micah Wil-
liams turned the game for Willowbrook. Proviso East got off a potential game-winning 3-pointer from the corner at the buzzer, but it missed. Verge scored 18 of his 41 points in the fourth quarter, out dueling Proviso East standout Kalin Fisher’s 33 points. Jake Bruns scored 18 points, Kyle Rushing added 11 and Kevin Miller had 10 points. It was Verge’s third game scoring more than 40 points this season. “I try not to say too much because I just want to keep him humble,” coach Chris Perkins said. “I know he’s a sophomore and I don’t want him to get complacent. I just want him to keep working, but some of the moves he does you’re just like ‘I didn’t draw that up. Wow.’ He kind of takes your breath away. He still does a good job of getting the other guys the ball, and that’s what I like, especially considering teams are double-teaming him almost the entire game and he’s still able to do what he does.”

hopefully I’ll get a rematch in the state finals,” Rowland said. “I think I can make it and beat him hopefully.” Getting back to state for the junior is significant because he knows what it’s like to be a wrestler at state. “Just the experience of being under all the lights and the feeling of being on the State Farm Center floor, it’s the greatest feeling in wrestling,” Rowland said.

PREP ROUNDUP
CAROL STREAM – D’Andre Johnson knows he only has one more shot to make his mark at the state wrestling meet. The Glenbard East senior won his second straight sectional title Saturday at Glenbard North to book his third trip to state. “I feel kind of emo- D’Andre tional because it’s my Johnson last one and my season is coming to an end,” Johnson said. “It’s just getting emotional, but it’s a lot of fun to keep winning.” Johnson pinned York’s Tommy Helton in the 285-pound title match. The final was Johnson’s third pin in three matches at the sectional. He entered the state meet, which began Thursday in Champaign, with a 26-1 record. Johnson also made state as a sophomore and junior. Last year he went 1-2 at state, which was below his own expectations. This year he is hoping to end his memorable career with a bang. “My goal is have fun and get that state title,” Johnson said. “I’m feeling really good. I’m ready to put it all on the line.” Johnson said he plans to wrestle in college, but is still undecided on where he will go. A strong showing at state could go a long way towards attracting some college programs, and his previous state experience will give him an edge in Champaign. “I think that does help me a lot because now I’m not as nervous,” Johnson said. “Two years ago, I was very nervous. Last year, I was more accommodated to it and this year I’m going to be ready to go.” Glenbard East also had five other wrestlers compete at the sectional. Sophomore Nick Donovan was one match away from qualifying for state at 106 pounds. Drew Fugiel, Fred Morris, Sean Corey and Bryan Andrews also wrestled at the sectional for the Rams.

CAROL STREAM – Before he was even a high school student, Jack Jessen attended the state wrestling meet in Champaign and dreamed of being there himself. Jessen’s dream became a reality on Saturday when the Willowbrook freshman won the Glenbard North sectional at 170 pounds to book his place at the state tournament, which started Thursday and concludes Saturday. Jessen already set the school record for takedowns in a season and is hoping for more. “I can’t believe I’m making it down as a freshman to Champaign,” Jessen said. “It’s just an amazing goal to achieve so far and I can achieve way more than I have.” He entered the state meet with a 46-2 record and faced Highland Park’s John Ciancio in Thursday’s first round. Teammate Matt Rowland, who qualified for state at 152 pounds, returns to
