Huntley’s Tseumah state high jump champ May 18, 2013 12:00 AM
Omo Tseumah took a calculated gamble. But it paid off handsomely for the Huntley senior in her return engagement with Lyons Township sophomore Emma Haugen. Last year at the girls Class 3A state track and field meet, Haugen defeated Tseumah for the championship in the high jump. Tseumah made a bold move as the two dueled once again on Saturday at Eastern Illinois University. "I decided to skip 5-(feet)-5," Tseumah said. The Marquette-bound senior then made her three following heights at 5-6, 5-7 and 5-8.

The Jacobs 3,200-meter relay team made quite a statement Friday at the Class 3A state girls track and field finals in Charleston. The quartet of Molly Barnes, Tori Tamburrino, Sam Baran and Lauren VanVlierbergen won its heat and clocked the fastest time of all 3A teams at 9:16.19.

LaShawna Canty came the closest taking second in the high jump in 1998 and 1999.

Barrington holds off Burlington Central May 17, 2013 12:00 AM
It was Senior Day for the Barrington softball team Friday and the Fillies played their final game of the season at the Fields of Dreams. Or did they? "We hope we have one more game here," said Fillies' senior third baseman Loren Krzysko. If the Fillies do, it will mean they're playing in their own Class 4A supersectional on June 3. But there's a long road ahead before that and Barrington, ranked No. 2 in the Daily Herald Top 20 as well as the Class 4A Illinois Coaches Association poll, tuned up for the postseason with a 3-2 win over Burlington Central, the No. 6 team in the Daily Herald Top 20 and No. 3 in the ICA Class 3A poll.

Burlington Central downs Prairie Ridge May 16, 2013 12:00 AM
Line drives are so overrated! Burlington Central didn’t hit many Thursday, but enough bouncers and rollers found holes to propel the Rockets to a 4-2 nonconference victory over Prairie Ridge on Rocket Hill. Dan Gerke went the distance on the mound, allowing just 6 hits. Leadoff man Mike Lee and No. 9 hitter Drew Wiss each had 2 hits for the Rockets (16-9).

Huntley boys track coach Jim Rolando has said his team's success this season has boiled down to teamwork.
