Meet the members of the 2012-2013 Northwest suburban Academic Team, a remarkably diverse bunch, with different backgrounds, interests and goals. But their commonalities are what put them in a special category: very smart, enviably self-disciplined and acutely aware of the world around them. "My successes thus far show me one thing above all else: I have the capacity, and therefore the responsibility, to do more for the world," writes Benjamin Brissette, of Maine West.

Fremd’s girls, Barrington’s boys take Frisk/Paddock honors Jun 6, 2013 12:00 AM
There were no major surprises in the battles for varsity sports supremacy in the Mid-Suburban League for the 2012-13 school year. The usual suspects jockeyed for No. 1 in girls and boys sports throughout the fall, winter and spring seasons, and the two races were as close at the wire as a photo finish in the 100-meter dash. Fremd’s program won the Bob Frisk Paddock Trophy for girls for the fifth straight year, and Barrington edged defending champion Fremd for the Bob Frisk Paddock Cup for boys. Palatine and Prospect came in a solid 3-4 in both competitions.

Palatine-Schaumburg District 211 plans to renovate pools at all five of the district's high schools, but parents and coaches say they have needed improvement for over a decade now because of their unusual design.

Cote of honor: Libertyville ousts Fremd May 29, 2013 12:00 AM
After being named Libertyville's opening day starter, Nate Cote struggled during the regular season and found himself moved to the No. 3 role in the Wildcats' rotation. But Wednesday at the Class 4A Glenbrook North sectional semifinal in Northbrook, Cote looked like his old self, scattering 4 hits as Libertyville ousted Fremd 2-1. "This is easily the best game I pitched all year," said Cote, who struck out two while improving to 5-2. "I had some arm trouble early in the year. But I was able to come back today and help my team, thanks to some great defense behind me."

Fremd cashes in with seventh-inning rally May 25, 2013 12:00 AM
Money was big money for Fremd on Saturday in the Class 4A St. Viator regional final in Arlington Heights. Greg Money, that is. He delivered a two-out single to right-center to score Austin Jetel as the Vikings rallied for 2 runs in the bottom of the seventh and a 4-3 victory over Buffalo Grove. “I was way down in the order,” said Money, who was the sixth batter to come to the plate in the inning. “I was hoping that they would get to me. I swung at the first pitch and once I hit it, I knew we had won.” The victory gave coach Chris Piggott his first regional title since he became coach in 2003, and it’s the first regional title for Fremd since 2002. Fremd moves on to the Glenbrook North sectional Wednesday, where the Vikings will meet Libertyville, a 7-6 victor against Glenbrook North at Lake Zurich in regional play Saturday.
DeLoye, Barrington quickly get back on track downstate May 24, 2013 12:00 AM
The disappointment that Barrington junior Parker Deloye felt after the high jump went away — quickly. All it took was two laps around the track by the members of the Broncos' 800-meter relay team, and all was well again with Deloye. During the prelims session of the Class 3A boys track and field state championships at Eastern Illinois University and O'Brien Field, Deloye missed the cut in the high jump but bounced back with a robust leadoff leg on the Broncos 800 relay. JP Brooks, Brendan Melynchuk and Scotty Miller joined him in a school record 1:28.64 to earn a spot in Saturdays' finals as the third overall seed. "This definitely makes up for earlier," Deloye said.
