  •  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.

    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.”

     
  • Productive day for Glenbard N. at Maine EastFeb 9, 2013 12:00 AM
    Heading to Champaign next weekend? Your probabilities of running into a few young men with bleached blonde hair are looking strong. And when you do, you will have found Glenbard North's 7 state-qualified wrestlers, all hoping for individual state titles and traditionally wearing the hairdos. Success for the Panthers came easy at the Class 3A Maine East sectional Saturday afternoon as Jon Marmolego (120 pounds), Jered Cortez (126) and Brian Murphy (152) all grabbed first-place wins in their respective weight classes, while Jimique Davis at 160 took second place, Patrick Augstyn (106) and Johnny Gosinski (132) placed third and Colton Wegner (170) sneaked into Champaign in fourth place. “We brought 10 guys here, seven got out and I can remember when we'd be happy if we got one guy out,” said Panthers' coach Mark Hahn. “To get seven guys out that's pretty good. We had five in the finals, pretty good tournament, all the way around.”

  • Confident Conant in just the right ‘state’ of mindFeb 2, 2013 12:00 AM
    Conant coach Jennifer Mikrut knew it was going to be a good day for the Cougars after only two games were in the books at Saturday’s Fremd girls bowling sectional.“We were in first place at that time,” said Mikrut, “and it really gave the girls a lot of confidence. It was an outstanding kickoff to the day and they were excited. At that point, I think they knew what they could do.”What the Cougars did was erase the memory of last year’s sectional tournament – when Conant missed out on a state berth by just eight pins – to win Saturday at Arlington Lanes and move on to next weekend’s state tourney at Cherry Bowl Lanes in Rockford.Conant’s total six-game score of 5838 bested second-place Prospect by just 73 pins, but the Knights weren’t disappointed as they also qualified for a trip to Cherry Bowl with their runner-up placement.
