Welter helps Buffalo Grove outscore Lake Zurich Feb 11, 2013 12:00 AM
Buffalo Grove coach Steve Kolodziej had a message for freshman Maddie Welter at practice Saturday. "My coach told me whenever he put me in the game, he wanted me in there to score points," said Welter, who nine months ago was a student at Thomas Middle School in Arlington Heights. "So I kind of thought on that." Whatever she was thinking, it couldn't have worked out better for BG. Welter came off the bench to score a career-high 19 points and help No. 15 seeded Buffalo Grove claim a 59-52 victory over No. 19 Lake Zurich in Monday's play-in game of the Class 4A Fremd girls basketball regional.
It all adds up in another Stevenson win Feb 9, 2013 12:00 AM
Stevenson is one of those “pick your poison” basketball teams. If somehow you figure out a way to stop super sophomore Jalen Brunson, then fellow fine sophomore Colby Cashaw will burn you inside and outside. Add the outside shooting of Andy Stempel and Matt Morrissey, and there is no wonder why the Patriots are the top seed in the Waukegan sectional. “They have four really good players,” Lake Zurich coach Billy Pitcher said. “And with Cashaw hitting 3s, they are hard to defend.” On its march to a North Suburban Conference Lake Division title, the visiting Patriots hit their first three baskets from three-point range and never looked back in beating Lake Zurich 62-49 Saturday night.

Barrington saves best — Calamari — for last Feb 2, 2013 12:00 AM
For the second consecutive weekend, Barrington found a novel way to win. The latest came Saturday, when the Broncos saved their best performance for last — in the person of Ben Calamari. After their sensational final round at last Saturday’s Mid-Suburban League tournament that broke open a tight race en route to a third straight title, the Broncos rode a dramatic victory from Calamari in the final bout of a marathan Class 3A Lake Zurich regional to edge Deerfield by 1.5 points and capture a spot in the dual-team sectional later this month against Grant.

Libertyville prevails in NSC battle with Grant Jan 26, 2013 12:00 AM
Once again it was a two-team race Saturday as defending champion Grant and archrival Libertyville battled it out for the North Suburban Conference wrestling championship. The Bulldogs held a slim 9-point advantage over Libertyville heading into the second day of the 57th annual league meet, held at Stevenson. But the Wildcats turned the tables in the semifinal round to win 223.5 to 211.5 over Grant. The victory marked the fourth NSC crown in five years for Libertyville, and its 19th overall. It looks like No. 20 is a strong possibility next year, with the abundance of young talent on the Wildcats roster.
Lake Zurich takes charge against Libertyville Jan 26, 2013 12:00 AM
In Saturday's defensive battle between Lake Zurich and Libertyville, it seemed only fitting that victory was sealed with a charge taken. Down 7 points in the final minute, the host Wildcats were in desperate need of a few quick scores. But the Lake Zurich defense didn't give an inch. The Bears turned Libertyville away again and again. And when senior guard Ryan Roach drew a charge on yet another Libertyville attempt at the basket, it put the Bears in charge once and for all. Lake Zurich hit 7 straight free throws, including 3 by Roach, to close out a 55-45 North Suburban Conference Lake Division victory over Libertyville.
