Sporting All The Benefits May 20, 2013 12:00 AM
Do you think sports are all fun and games? While that is not incorrect, the truth of the matter lies in the obvious fact that a child who participates in a sport is offered far more benefits than just having an enjoyable time. Although some may argue participating in a sport is a distraction and a time consuming activity, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention declares otherwise. Childhood obesity has reached an all time high, doubling in children and tripling in adolescents over the past 30 years. In 2010, more than one third of children and adolescents were overweight or obese. With obesity becoming such a prevalent issue, it is no fallacy that children need to increase their physical activity, and what better way to start then by participating in a sport.

Ellis’ winning hue: A second coat of blue May 18, 2013 12:00 AM
She blended nearly as perfectly as she ran. All dressed in blue on the O'Brien Stadium blue, under a blue sky, with blue bleachers above, Warren Blue Devil Brittny Ellis dominated in her Year Two at EIU. "Last year was just totally new for me," the speedy sophomore said. "I didn't know what was going on. "But now," she added, smiling, "I feel like I belong here." So true, girl in blue. Her feats may have been new to the IHSA track world last spring, but what Ellis does on a track is getting old, yet no less exhilarating. She won the Class 3A 400-meter dash for the second year in a row Saturday, successfully defending her title by burning off a 54.34 to edge the equally amazing Cameron Pettigrew. The Chicago Payton star sped to a time of 54.84.

After a tough 8-7 loss to Lincoln-Way Central in the semifinals, Mundelein was hoping to finish its great season with a win Saturday afternoon in the girls state water polo tournament.
