St. Viator has fun while making progress Jan 10, 2013 12:00 AM
St. Viator boys swimming coach Mary Ruffin is an outspoken advocate for her sport, but she recognizes some of the challenges that go with the territory. “It’s a sport that can have some monotony, with all the time you have to spend in the water training,” she said. “But I like this team — you can tell they’re having fun. You see them hanging together at the wall between sets, then somebody says something, and I see smiles. I can’t always tell what’s been said, but I know they’re enjoying themselves. That’s really important. “It’s hard work, so it’s important to remember that you’ve also got to have fun with it.” If winning is fun, St. Viator had plenty of it Thursday. The Lions hosted a Notre Dame program that’s just getting its feet wet and came away with decisive wins on both the varsity (78-15) and JV (68-12) levels.

What a rush: Williams, Lake Forest top Notre Dame Nov 9, 2012 12:00 AM
Lake Forest junior Geno Quaid certainly could sympathize with the members of the Notre Dame offensive line. After all, Quaid had to go up against teammate Trent Williams all through summer workouts, so he knew just how the Dons linemen felt when they tried to block Williams on Friday night during the Class 6A quarterfinal game in Niles. "I know it wasn't easy," Quaid said of his battles with Williams over the summer. "(Trent) was so hard to try and block, and you could see it tonight that he made it hard on Notre Dame, too." Williams busted through the offensive line of the No. 14 seeded Dons for a school record 7 sacks to help lead No. 10 seed Lake Forest to an impressive 31-19 victory and a trip to the state semifinals for the first time in school history. Notre Dame completed its season with a 7-5 mark.
