  • Katie Kirker

    Kirker’s story truly one to admire May 26, 2012 12:00 AM
    Jacobs softball coach Jeremy Bauer rarely shows emotion on the field. It takes a special moment or performance for Bauer to really open up a little. Golden Eagles' senior Katie Kirker gave her coach, her teammates, her family and Jacobs fans just that Saturday at Huntley, when she 1-hit Cary-Grove to lead the Eagles to a 1-0 regional championship win.

     
  • Helmich, Grant topple Cary-Grove May 26, 2012 12:00 AM
    A nasty collision between Grant's Jared Helmich and Cary-Grove's Matt DiCicco at first base in the top of the seventh inning looked much worse than it actually was. "I tried to avoid the guy," Helmich said. "There was nothing I could do, I was going full speed I just couldn't get away from him." Luckily, both players eventually got up, dusted themselves off and continued on. But it was Helmich who would ultimately forget the pain. How so? He'd pitch the bottom half of the inning with a 2-run lead and close the Trojans out for a 4-2 Class 4A McHenry regional championship win. It's the Bulldogs' first regional win since 2001.

     
  • Jacobs, Kirker surprise Cary-Grove May 26, 2012 12:00 AM
    It seemed appropriate Katie Kirker's finest moment would come in a regional championship game. Retiring the first 15 batters she faced, Kirker, who has been plagued by injuries her entire high school career, twirled a masterful 1-hit shutout as second-seeded Jacobs upset top-seeded Cary-Grove 1-0 in the Class 4A Huntley regional final Saturday. It is the Golden Eagles' third straight regional title.

  •  Barrington’s Kathryn Avedon hoists the sectional championship trophy into the air after their 2-0 victory over Huntley in Rockford on Friday.

    Barrington claims 4th straight sectional May 25, 2012 12:00 AM
    Aimee Pierce stood between freshmen Jenna Szczesny and Kelsey Muniez encouraging them in their postgame interviews. But this wasn't a typical situation for a sectional championship team. After all, Muniez had only played on the Barrington varsity team for a month and hadn't scored a goal. Szczesny has been on the Fillies' varsity squad, but it has been the playoffs where she has started to become a constant scoring threat. Each freshman scored goals in Barrington's 2-0 victory over Huntley in the Class 3A Rockford Boylan sectional, giving the Fillies a fourth-straight sectional crown.

But as part of an agreement with West Dundee, Browne has until Aug. 1 to raise $500,000 in seed money.

    Fox Valley could be showered in medals this weekend May 24, 2012 12:00 AM
    The medal stand at the boys state track and field meet at Eastern Illinois University could be littered with Fox Valley area athletes this weekend. Among the brightest hopes to win state titles in Class 3A are Elgin's 800-meter relay team and Cary-Grove senior thrower Josh Freeman. Elgin seniors Terrell Campbell, Devante King, Derek Moorman and Dennis Moore will attempt to win the first state track title for their school since Tony Adams won back-to-back 440-yard dash titles in 1978 and 1979, according to IHSA records. The foursome set the school record in the 800-meter relay at the St. Charles North sectional (1:27.83).
