How Oklahoma coach helped save Schaumburg couple
A youth triathlon coach who helped pull a Schaumburg trustee and his wife out of the rubble after Monday's tornado in Oklahoma will be watching his team participate in a race Sunday in Geneva. "(Talbot Cox) was one of the responders that helped my parents," said Steve Kozak, son of the trustee. "Obviously he helped save their lives, and I'm grateful for that."

Thorson pitches Kaneland into regional finals
Updated May 24, 2013 9:15 PMOne reason the high school baseball postseason can be so unpredictable is that even a heavy favorite can find itself in a tough game early in the tournament going up against the opponent's No. 1 pitcher. For Kaneland Friday, that meant getting Sandwich ace Jake Roehn, a hard-throwing righty who will be pitching Division I baseball at Ohio University next year. The Knights, though, were up to the challenge. They scored five runs in the second inning on a combination of a few hard hit balls, a little small ball and some shaky Sandwich defense, then watched Curtis Thorson do the rest.

- The Choral-aires Chorus placed second in the Community Teams category raising funds for breast cancer research last month, missing first place by only $25. The chorus raised $3,985 by the time the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure rolled around, with more donations still coming, surpassing their original goal of $3,000. The Choral-Aires has five current chorus members that either have, or have had, breast cancer. And this year, 2 of the team members discovered that their mothers have breast cancer, so they were walking on race day for their moms. One member of our team, Kara Gray, celebrated her 10 years without breast cancer this year. While not a Chorus member, she is the daughter of long-time member Martha Anderson, who also walked with the team on race day. Lindsey Herza
