More than halfway through the four-year pilot program, leaders believe they're onto something.

Make it 3 for Hersey’s Rollins, after 3 OTs Feb 9, 2013 12:00 AM
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 Saturday. Rollins, along with seven others from the Mid-Suburban League, earned their trips to the Assembly Hall in Champaign, where preliminary matches start Thursday.

Barrington brings out the best Feb 9, 2013 12:00 AM
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 swimmers in the conference, though. And no one else could come close to matching the completeness of Barrington’s lineup. “With the team we have, our focus this year really has to be on swimming our best at state,” said Barrington senior Jack Strauss, who was second in the 200 free and 100 free and anchored the Broncos’ freestyle relays. “Our goal for this meet was mainly to be consisent with our times across the board, and I think we pretty much did that.”

Marist provides playoff prep for St. Viator Feb 9, 2013 12:00 AM
St. Viator girls basketball coach Christina Jost and her players knew they were going up against a quality team in Marist on Saturday afternoon at the Cahill Gymnasium. So what better way to tune up for a Class 3A regional next Tuesday? “We kind of took that mindset,” Jost said after the talented Redhawks came away with a 76-39 victory in the East Suburban Catholic Conference finale. “We knew Marist (21-9, 7-3) was a very good team and obviously well-coached. “So we were using it as a good way to prepare for the state tournament. I don’t see us playing teams as tough as them early on, so hopefully this will help us.”

Longtime Harper professor releases eighth book Feb 8, 2013 12:00 AM
Greg Herriges first began writing his latest novel, about a family coping with their 9-year old daughter’s battle with leukemia, more than a decade ago. Six months into his research, the Harper College English professor’s own family began living the plot. Herriges’ nephew was diagnosed with acute lymphocytic childhood leukemia - the same potentially devastating disease affecting the book’s main character - and Herriges put his writing on hold, using his research to simply better understand the illness and answer his family’s questions.

Prospect aims for outright title; Schaumburg tries to turn back Fremd Feb 7, 2013 12:00 AM
With two conference games remaining, Mid-Suburban League races are starting to take shape in both divisions. In the East, Elk Grove (11-12, 5-3) visits Prospect (14-9, 7-1) tonight in a rematch of a thrilling contest on Jan. 11 in which the Knights pulled out a 60-59 victory. While Prospect has already clinched a share of the East, a win for the Knights gives them the division outright and assures their spot in the Mid-Suburban title game on Feb. 20. In the West, Schaumburg (14-9, 6-2) hosts Fremd (16-7, 5-3) with the opportunity to lock up a share of their third straight West title. The Saxons won the first meeting in convincing fashion 46-35.
