    Barrington brings out the best

    Barrington’s senior Kyle Ujiiye holds the 200-yard medley real metal is his mouth as he stands with his teammates after they won the event at the Mid-Suburban League meet Saturday.

    Feb 9, 2013 8:03 PM

    Welcome to Barrington, Mid-Suburban League competitors. You were guests one of the finest boys swimming teams in the history of the conference, and more supporting evidence came forth Saturday. The host Broncos finished with 273 points to win the MSL championships in workmanlike fashion. Barrington answered challenges to win all three relays, but beyond that their only victory came from Kyle Ujiye in the 100-yard butterfly (50.46). That oddity is simply due to the overall balance of top-level...

    How do you improve on perfection? Don’t ask Michael Cullen, because the Cary-Grove sophomore still feels he’s a long way from being there. Of course his opponents might feel a little differently if they were asked. Another simply smashing performance from Cullen was put in the books following a dominating 11-1 major decision in his 113-pound final against Colin Kenyon (New Trier, 33-8) at the Class 3A Barrington sectional Saturday. The win sends the Trojans’ star into the 3A state tournament...

    Flying under the radar last season as teammate Shakhiem Chapman enjoyed most of the spoils on his way to a third-place state finish, Warren’s Danny Hicks had a wonderful year himself in 2012. It’s looking like 2013 might be even better for Hicks after Saturday’s result at the Class 3A Barrington sectional. The senior won his second consecutive sectional title, this one coming at the expense of Libertyville junior Austin Koziol (28-11) in a 5-0 decision to send the star 170-pounder into the...

    Black sets the pace as Stevenson, LF share NSC crown

    Connor Black of Mundelein checks his time after the 50-yard freestyle during the North Suburban Conference boys swim meet at Lake Forest High School on Saturday.

    Feb 9, 2013 8:34 PM

    In Saturday's North Suburban Conference boys swimming meet, Mundelein's Connor Black broke the 100 butterfly pool record set in 1994 by Tucker Shade of Decatur MacArthur in a quick 48.76. Host Lake Forest (286) edged Stevenson (283) in the team standings, meaning those teams share the overall conference championship.

    Make it 3 for Hersey’s Rollins, after 3 OTs

    Ben Calamari of Barrington is victorious over Lawrence Phillips of Rockford Auburn at 285 pounds during sectional action at Barrington.

    Feb 9, 2013 10:24 PM

    Hunter Rollins put the finishing touches on a brilliant regular season before a packed house. With a brave effort during a gripping contest, Rollins struck late to seal his passage into next weekend’s Class 3A wrestling state tournament. In doing so, Rollins won his third straight sectional crown. He’s the first to do so since Barrington began hosting in 2009. The No. 3-rated Hersey senior outlasted No. 4 Kayne MacCallum (40-3) of Libertyville in the third OT period of the 160-pound final...

    Feb 9, 2013 11:47 PM

    Metea Valley wrestling coach Claudio Torres spoke for many of his brethren when sizing up the field of the Class 3A Shepard sectional Saturday evening in Palos Heights. "It’s like a mini-state tournament,” Torres said. “I have seen so many state qualifiers (from past years) get eliminated already. There are ranked wrestlers not getting out (to the individual state tournament this week in Champaign).” Defending team state champion Sandburg was the true measuring stick...
