• Reed, Meadows win again May 18, 2013 12:00 AM
  Mid-Suburban League champion Rolling Meadows improved to 19-9-1 with a 1-0 victory over Addison Trail on Saturday in nonconference play. On senior day for the host Mustangs, senior Austin Reed tossed a complete-game 4-hitter. He induced 13 groundball outs, struck out four, walked none and the hits he allowed were all singles. It was a good thing Reed was so sharp, because Addison Trail's Zach Dowz allowed 2 hits and struck out 15 in a tough-luck complete-game loss.

  Stephens says losing Demons won’t hurt Rosemont May 17, 2013 12:00 AM
  Rosemont Mayor Bradley Stephens said Friday he is disappointed but not irked by the prospect of losing DePaul University's Blue Demons men's basketball team to Chicago, even though the team has played at Rosemont's Allstate Arena for nearly three decades. "It's not like it's a nasty divorce," Stephens said. "All good things come to an end. We were fortunate enough to be there in their heyday."
  

   

• Sweet evening for Lakes at VH sectional May 17, 2013 12:00 AM
  Trevor Ray held a small bundle of gift-wrapped goodies baked by Stephanie Rowells, wife of Lakes boys track coach Kurt Rowells, when a competitor stopped by to feed the speedy senior some sugary praise. It was none other than Ray's old middle-school relay teammate, Leroy Chapman of Antioch. "Mention that he beat me," Chapman said with a smile, as he patted Ray on the shoulders and back. "Smoked me." Chapman, who finished second to Ray in the 400-meter dash, wasn't the only one blown away by a Lakes runner. If this were a high school baseball game, it would have been called after five innings. Lakes piled up 144 points to capture Friday night's Class 2A Vernon Hills sectional. Defending sectional champ Grayslake Central (76 points) was way back in second. Vernon Hills (69), Antioch (52) and St. Viator (36) rounded out the top five.
