  • Seniors step forward for St. Viator May 21, 2013 12:00 AM
    Niles North was on a roll. The Vikings had just rallied to stun St. Viator in the second game of Tuesday’s boys volleball regional semifinal at Loyola to tie the match and send it into a third and deciding set. And while the energized Vikes sprinted out of their huddle early and onto the court ready for game three, the Lions and coach Chris Boylan stood on the sidelines, calmly talking things over. “We were still confident,” said St. Viator senior libero Anthony Giovenco. “We kind of lost our intensity in the second game but we knew we couldn’t let up.” “The guys relaxed a little after set one,” agreed Boylan. “But in the third set our seniors took over.” Led by Giovenco, who Boylan said gave a “virtually flawless” performance, the Lions controlled the final game in a 25-15, 18-25, 25-12 victory.

  • St. Viator smoothly passes another road test Dec 15, 2012 12:00 AM
    You won't see too many boys basketball teams have as good a weekend as St. Viator just wrapped up. One night after winning at conference rival Marist, St. Viator notched an equally impressive road win in beating a tough Loyola squad 57-53 in the CCL/ESCC Challenge. "It's huge because we are just starting to figure out how good we can be," said St. Viator coach Mike Howland. "I thought we had gutsy efforts and we grinded out wins. That's really what playing on the road is all about."

    Jackson, Glenbard North finish the job Nov 17, 2012 12:00 AM
    When Glenbard North's 2011 football campaign closed with a Class 8A semifinal loss to Loyola Academy, running back Justin Jackson felt like he had not contributed enough to his team. After this year's semifinal — again against Loyola on Saturday afternoon in Wilmette — you'd be hard-pressed to find anyone who felt Jackson could have done anymore than he did this time around. After all, the Panthers junior scored 4 touchdowns, played stellar on defense and helped Glenbard North hold off a late Ramblers rally for a 27-24 win and a spot in next weekend's Class 8A championship game against either Neuqua Valley or Mt. Carmel.
