• Hard-hitting Prospect advances May 21, 2013 12:00 AM
  You always want the bats warming up late in the season. Prospect's were as hot as the weather in Monday's play-in game of the Buffalo Grove Class 4A softball regional at Wheeling. The No. 18-seeded Knights scored as many runs in one inning as they did in any game all season en route to a 16-5 victory over the No. 16 Wildcats. After giving up 5 runs and falling behind 5-2 after 5 innings, Prospect (9-19) erupted for 10 runs on 10 hits in the top of the sixth and never looked back to advance to today's 4:30 p.m. semifinal against top-seeded Barrington (30-1) at Buffalo Grove High School.

  Kiser keys big opener for Lake Zurich May 20, 2013 12:00 AM
  Tanner Kiser received a mini-celebratory dousing of small cups of water over his head from a couple of Lake Zurich baseball teammates late Monday afternoon. Maybe they wanted to make sure the left-handed hitting first baseman didn't cool off too much. Not after the only thing that may have prevented him from hitting for the cycle was not getting a fourth at-bat in the Class 4A Lake Zurich regional quarterfinal against Prospect. Kiser homered, tripled and doubled and drove in 5 runs and cleanup man Anthony Drago went 3-for-4 with a homer and 4 RBI as the 14th-seeded Bears (15-16) stayed hot and extended their winning streak to 5 games as they rolled 13-0 in 5 innings.

  Silver linings for Palatine 3,200 relay, Meadows’ Keller May 18, 2013 12:00 AM
  Tess Wasowicz put her best foot forward — and didn't wince. In the end, all was well in a season that wasn't always well for the Palatine star. What the senior described as a "stress reaction" in her left foot kept her from competing on the track for half the season, but the perennial state qualifier left Eastern Illinois University's O'Brien Stadium with a runner-up state medal draped over her neck after joining 3,200-meter relay teammates Kara Burton, Liz Cox and Cassidy McPherson ran strong on the season's final day, finishing second (9:12.21) in the Class 3A race behind only New Trier (9:04.86). Another state veteran, Rolling Meadows senior thrower Morgan Keller, also left Charleston happy. She finished in second place in the discus (149 feet, 7 inches).

  Meadows’ Keller, Prospect’s Santiago lead the way May 17, 2013 12:00 AM
  Rolling Meadow senior Morgan Keller and Prospect junior Christina Santiago definitely set the tone at the Class 3A girls track and field state meet preliminaries at Eastern Illinois in Charleston on Friday. Keller, a five-time state medalist, took the early lead in discus by hitting the top mark in the preliminaries with a throw of 149-07, with two-time defending Class 3A champion Emmonnie Henderson of Edwardsville sitting in second (146-01). While Keller was throwing down the thunder, Santiago was lighting up the track for Prospect. She opened the day by helping Prospect secure the third-best time in the 3,200 relay (9:19.87) and followed up by hitting a school record and securing the third-best time in the 1,600 (4:55.72).
