• Helmich, Grant topple Cary-Grove May 26, 2012 12:00 AM
  A nasty collision between Grant's Jared Helmich and Cary-Grove's Matt DiCicco at first base in the top of the seventh inning looked much worse than it actually was. "I tried to avoid the guy," Helmich said. "There was nothing I could do, I was going full speed I just couldn't get away from him." Luckily, both players eventually got up, dusted themselves off and continued on. But it was Helmich who would ultimately forget the pain. How so? He'd pitch the bottom half of the inning with a 2-run lead and close the Trojans out for a 4-2 Class 4A McHenry regional championship win. It's the Bulldogs' first regional win since 2001.
