  • Bush, Stevenson rise to another NSC occasion May 11, 2013 12:00 AM
    Taking control of the North Suburban Conference boys tennis tournament is starting to be an annual event for Stevenson. The Patriots netted another NSC title on Saturday, topping Lake Forest 38-28.5 for the top spot in the event hosted by Wauconda and completed at the Vernon Hills Athletic Complex. Warren edged Libertyville 23.5 to 23 for third place. Jeremy Bush of Stevenson was victorious over Warren's Kristiyan Trukov in straight sets for the No. 1 singles championship, and the Patriots captured all three of their doubles matches over the Scouts.

  • Lake Zurich’s Olivia Schneider pitches against Warren in Gurnee on Friday.

    Schneider’s heroic effort lifts Lake Zurich May 10, 2013 12:00 AM
    Lake Zurich junior Olivia Schneider, a little lefty if there ever was one, has no lofty expectations. "I'm little," Schneider, who stands 5 feet, 1 inch, said with a laugh. "Not growing anymore." Funny, as Friday's North Suburban Conference Lake Division game between Lake Zurich and host Warren moved from one inning to the next, Schneider seemed to be getting bigger and bigger. Her presence in the circle was growing, Incredible Hulk-ishly. "It was really hard to get the pitcher down," Warren junior left fielder Jazmin Bonke said. "She had a lot of movement." Schneider retired the first 17 batters she faced, before Bonke singled with two out in the sixth to spoil the perfect game, in what was maybe her best pitched game in high school. She settled for a 4-hitter, as Lake Zurich held on for a 3-2 win, delivering Warren a crushing loss in its attempt to successfully defend its NSC Lake title.

  •  Lakes’ Caleb Arnwine competes in the triple jump during the North Suburban Conference boys track meet Thursday at Libertyville High School

    Grant’s repeat plan succeeds May 9, 2013 12:00 AM
    It started in the field and ended up on the track, and that's the formula that led to another conference championship for Grant. It was that formula that the Bulldogs and their coaches met about back in November, and every week since — not losing focus on the ultimate goal, another North Suburban Conference title. Thursday night, on a cool and very soggy night at Libertyville, the Bulldogs, who shared the conference title with Lake Zurich a year ago, showed their dominance in all facets to win their second consecutive NSC crown. Grant, which also captured the NSC Prairie Division title, amassed 115 points to 96 for runner-up Lakes.

    Extra special win for Holtz, Lake Zurich May 8, 2013 12:00 AM
    It hasn't always been fun for Lake Zurich's baseball boys this spring. Not for Joey Holtz, either. Consider that the Bears junior second baseman had been getting ribbed by his team lately because his batting average, while on the rise, has continued to equal his slugging percentage. "No more," a smiling Holtz said Wednesday after helping Lake Zurich play the spoiler's role by beating visiting Stevenson 5-3 in North Suburban Lake Division action. The singles-hitting Holtz muscled up on a pitch in the second inning, hitting a tailing drive deep to right field. The ball bounced around on the warning track, as Holtz hustled to third with a standing triple. It was his first extra-base hit of the season.

     
  • Lake Zurich repeats as NSC champ May 7, 2013 12:00 AM
    Molly Powers saw that time was slipping away in the North Suburban Conference girls soccer championship game. So, in a determined effort, she made the most of the moment. Powers struck for the game-winning goal in leading Lake Zurich past Vernon Hills 1-0 in overtime on Tuesday night in Lake Zurich. The Bears won the NSC title for a second straight time over the Cougars. Powers scored the goal in the 82nd minute after taking a cross from Meaghan Galinas. On the play, Powers' initial shot was saved. But the rebound came right back to her, and she made good on the second attempt.

  • Patience rewarded for McCullough, Lake Zurich May 4, 2013 12:00 AM
    Saturday’s soccer match with Libertyville was worth the wait not only for Katie McCullough but all of her Lake Zurich teammates. McCullough recently returned to the field from knee surgery. She scored the game-winning goal Saturday, as the host Bears pulled out a 3-1 victory over the Wildcats that gave the Bears the North Suburban Lake Division title. Lake Zurich (7-6-3, 4-1-1), which will host Vernon Hills (9-3-2) in the NSC championship game Tuesday, scored a pair of second-half goals.

  • Lake Zurich slugger Nick Jones hit 6 home runs last week alone.

    The joke’s on Lake Zurich’s joltin’ JonesMay 2, 2013 12:00 AM
    It was all getting a bit too routine, which seems funny to say about watching home run baseballs being driven over the outfield fence with authority. But after so many of them, Anthony Drago and his Lake Zurich teammates were ready to change up their own routine. Instead of greeting Nick Jones at home plate with cheers and high-fives after yet another of his homers for the Bears, they sat motionless in the dugout, quiet and ho-hum. "We were giving Nick the silent treatment," Drago laughed. "We were just messing with him. I mean, going out to home plate like we usually do was getting old. We needed to do something different. We had already been out there two other times that game already."
