  • Heady effort from Hedstrom, Palatine May 9, 2013 12:00 AM
    North Dakota recruit Megan Hedstrom says the motto of her Palatine softball team is simple. "We play as a team," said the Pirates' ace. "And we win as a team."

Playing on the field of Mid-Suburban East leader Buffalo Grove on Thursday, the Pirates found themselves in a 4-1 hole after four innings. But the visitors broke through for 4 runs in the top of the sixth and Hedstrom added another with her home run in the top of the seventh as the Pirates captured a 6-4 triumph.

    It all adds up for Palatine May 9, 2013 12:00 AM
    It was worth the wait for the Palatine boys volleyball team. The Pirates were supposed to host undefeated Barrington a week ago Tuesday, but an electrical problem forced the closing of the school building and the postponement of the match until Thursday. And in a wild scene reminiscent of the state final tournament, Palatine defeated visiting Barrington 25-15, 21-25, 25-23 in front of a large, enthusiastic crowd to earn a share of the Mid-Suburban West crown with the Broncos. Both teams finished with 9-1 division records and split their season series, each match going three games. But the Pirates will advance to Wednesday's MSL championship match at Rolling Meadows game based on a point differential of just 1.
