Lawmakers can help nuke plant Report suggests nuclear power does not release greenhouse gas By Vinde Wells Editor A report released by several state agencies last week said Illinois lawmakers can prevent Exelon Corporation from closing nuclear plants by adopting policies that penalize competitors that emit carbon dioxide, including coal-fired power plants, according to the Associated Press. After Exelon officials said early last year that they might close at least three of its Illinois nuclear plants, including the Byron Generating Station, the Illinois House adopted a resolution in May that asked four state agencies to study the impact and what could be done. Sponsors of House Resolution 1146 included Rep. Tom Demmer (R-Dixon) and Brian Stewart (R-Freeport). The 269-page report prepared by the Illinois Commerce Commission, the Illinois Power Agency, the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency, and Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity was released Jan. 7. The report suggests the state could favor Exelon because its nuclear plants generate electricity without emitting greenhouse gases, according to the Associated Press article. The report said that closing the Byron plant would result in the loss of the jobs of the 880 workers employed
there, plus another 1,776 jobs across the state due to “the indirect impacts of lost employee spending in the local economy as well as purchases the plant makes within the state.” Exelon identified its Illinois nuclear plants at Byron, Clinton, and the Quad Cities as unprofitable and atrisk for closing. Its other three plants, Braidwood, considered Byron’s “twin,” LaSalle County, and Dresden were not on the at-risk list. The Byron plant, on North German Church Road five miles south of Byron, has traditionally received high marks for efficiency and safety during inspections by federal and state regulatory agencies. Byron Station’s Communications Manager Paul Dempsey said the “unprofitable” designation is because of where it is and other market factors. “A lot of it has to do with location,” he said. “We run a very efficient plant and a safe one, as do the others.” Only two of Byron’s four transmission lines take electricity to the Chicago area where prices are higher, Dempsey said. By contrast, he said, all of Braidwood’s lines go to Chicago, as do Dresden’s and LaSalle County’s. The Braidwood plant is a mirror image of Byron, and its two reactors went online in 1988, just a year after Byron’s Unit 2. Byron Unit 1 began generating electricity in 1985. Another factor is that oil tracking operations have brought down natural gas prices, creating stiffer competition as another energy source, Dempsey said. Turn to A2
Exelon appeals the value of Byron plant By Vinde Wells Editor For the third consecutive year, Exelon Corporation officials have appealed the assessment for the Byron Generating Station. The Ogle County Board of Review (BOR) was scheduled to hear the appeal Jan. 14. In the appeal, company officials have set the plant’s value at $212.6 million, less than half of the $509 million set by Ogle County Supervisor of Assessments Jim Harrison. The appeal is for the generating station’s 2014 assessment, which affects taxes payable in 2015. Exelon also appealed its 2012 and 2013 assessments. The BOR upheld both the 2012 assessment of $499 million and the 2013
assessment of $509 million. Exelon has appeals for both those years pending before the Illinois Property Tax Appeal Board. Exelon paid more than $34 million in real estate taxes last year to 11 taxing bodies, which include Ogle County, Rockvale Township, Byron School District, Oregon School District, Oregon Park District, Byron Fire District, Rock Valley College, Byron Public Library District, Byron Museum District, Byron Forest Preserve District, and Kishwaukee Community College. The Byron School District received the largest share of that money — more than $19 million. The value of the Byron Generating Station has frequently been disputed throughout the 30-year history of the facility.

Report shows nuclear power benefits Illinois From A1 “We’re in what you could call a ‘perfect storm’ here,� he said. The same factors apply to the Clinton and Quad Cities plants, he said. The Associated Press reported that Exelon officials have told lawmakers the company wants to be included in a “clean portfolio standard� under which nuclear, solar and wind power producers are rewarded for providing energy to the state.
Otherwise, the company could push for a price on carbon that would make its nuclear plants more competitive. The nuclear industry, which has been struggling with expensive, aging plants and low electricity prices, also sees opportunity in a sweeping Obama administration proposal to curb emissions from the nation’s power plants by 30 percent by 2030, according to the Associated Press.

FHS grad named to the CMU Hall of Fame Forreston High School alumna Brenda Schrader was recently inducted into the Hall of Fame at Central Michigan University, Mt. Pleasant, Mich. Schrader, a 1990 graduate of FHS, was recognized for her contributions while playing softball in 1993 and 1994 at CMU. She is the daughter of Judy Dorsey and Larry Schrader. Schrader received a full-
ride scholarship to Illinois Central Community College, East Peoria, in 1990, and for her junior year transferred to CMU. As a softball player there, she was named MidAmerican Conference (MAC) Player of the Year in 1994 and named to the First Team All-MAC the same year as she led CMU to a MAC title and a berth in the NCAA Regional.
She was also named to the First Team Academic AllDistrict in 1994, and was twice named Academic AllMAC. A .362 career batting average is tied for secondbest in school history. Schrader’s 10 triples tie for 10th on CMU’s career list. Her 1994 totals remain on the CMU top 10 singleseason lists for hits (70), batting average (.389), RBIs
(35), and triples (9). Shrader led the MAC in triples with nine in 1994, while also ranking third in hits and fourth in batting average and RBIs. She topped CMU in batting average, RBIs, and hits in 1993 and 1994, and was 16 for 18 in stolen bases in her career. She struck out just 20 times in 339 appearances at the plate.

Polo graduate shoveled show By Jermaine Pigee Sauk Valley Media When Jacob Gale looked on Facebook and saw people charging $15 and $20 to shovel a driveway, all he could do was shake his head. “I’m thinking to myself, ‘Why would you charge someone to do that?’” said Gale, who lives in Sterling and works odd jobs with his parents. “These are our neighbors, and we see them every day.” So the 22-year-old spent all day earlier this year shoveling driveways in the Sterling and Rock Falls area – free of charge. He shoveled his first driveway at 4 a.m. By 4 p.m., Gale had cleared 26 driveways. “I saw people on Facebook say I’ll do this and that for money, and I was always brought up to help neighbors and help people,” Gale said. “In my opinion, helping people is worth more than making money.” Gale, a 2011 graduate of Polo High School, said his mother, Angela Hecathorn, taught him at an early age about the benefits of helping people. “She always taught us that helping people went a mile, while money only went a minute,” Gale said. “My mom pushed that, and she always taught me to help my friends and family when they are in need.” Gale posted on Facebook that he was willing to shovel driveways in the area – if folks would provide the shovel. He’s had people reaching out to him ever since. “This was just the right thing to do,” Gale said. “I enjoy helping others and letting them know that the almighty dollar does not rule
everything.” Still, those he helped offered to pay. “I’ve been telling people to keep their money,” Gale said. “I’m not doing this for a spotlight. I just enjoy helping other people.” Gale eventually came up with a way for people to pay him. “If you want to pay me, a cup of hot chocolate will do just fine,” Gale said with a laugh. “It’s pretty cold out here.” One of the driveways Gale shoveled belongs to Casey Kindle, who lives on 15th Street in Sterling. “I just told him I thought he was doing a good thing,” Kindle said. “If we had more Americans like him, our country would not be as bad as it is.” Kindle gave Gale a snow thrower to make his job easier. He also gave him $20 for some gas for his truck. “I would not let him shovel my driveway for free,” Kindle said. “If he is doing good for the community, the least I can do is help him out and make his job easier.” Kindle, 34, said what Gale is doing is not something that is seen every day. “For a kid to take his own time and his own gas and do everything on his own is touching,” Kindle said. “Things like that do not go unnoticed.”

Governor-elect Bruce Rauner introduces Lt. Governor-elect Evelyn Sanguinetti on Friday morning at Swedish Pancake House in Byron. Rauner also was scheduled to visit Chillicothe, Casey, Grayville, Benton, Maryville, Quincy, Moline, and Moweaqua as part of his tour. Photo by Alex Paschal
Rauner visited crowd in Byron From A1 approval Thursday of a special election in 2016 for state comptroller. He has named former businesswoman Leslie Munger to succeed the late Comptroller Judy Baar Topinka, who died after winning a new 4-year term in November. Rauner says he would have preferred a constitutional amendment, but the Democratic Legislature didn’t want an appointee to serve the full term of an elected official. “I think they made a bad decision,” Rauner said. “I don’t support it, but that’s not one I want to really spend time fighting about. I want to focus on the priorities that
really impact families.” During his stop, Rauner told supporters he wanted to lower taxes, create a better jobs climate, improve Illinois schools, and enact term limits on career politicians. “I love this part of the state,” Rauner told the crowd in the Byron restaurant. “Our goal is to make this part of the state a booming economy. We will change the culture in Springfield so the government is running for your benefit and your family.” Rauner said he looks forward to working for Illinois citizens – and with Democrats to solve the issues and concerns of the state. “We will solve problems
on a bipartisan basis,” Rauner pledged. “To get the big solutions, Democrats and Republicans need to work together. I’ve met with 140 out of the 178 members of the General Assembly over the past few months.” State Sen. Tim Bivins, R-Dixon, said he was excited to have Rauner in office. “It’s kind of unusual to have a governor-elect, just a few days before getting sworn in, come back and go around the state to talk to people,” Bivins said. “He is actively involved in the budget. It will be a big issue not only for the governor, but for the General Assembly, but he is ready to work on that, and we are excited.”
The Ogle County Solid Waste Management Department encourages Ogle County residents to recycle their live Christmas trees once this holiday season has passed. Christmas trees can be dropped off through Sunday, Jan. 18 at the following locations: Byron – Sunshine Park, Ill. 2 and S. Peru St. Forreston – 407 N. Locust St. Leaf River – 208 W Railroad Street by the sewage treatment plant. Monroe Center – 309
Pacific St. at Lichty’s Landscaping. Oregon – 507 Hill St. at Oregon Park District maintenance yard Polo – 410 N. Prairie Ave., west of storage building. To enable the trees to be recycled, the trees must be totally undecorated. All tinsel, ornaments, lights, nails, plastic bags, and tree stands must be removed. Pine mulch is excellent for acid-loving plants such as irises, tiger lilies, lilacs, azaleas, roses, rhododendrons, hydrangeas, evergreen, blue berries, raspberries, pin oaks,
grapes, and dogwood. Pine mulch helps conserve moisture, keeps weeds from growing and can be used for walk ways. When Christmas trees are chipped and used for mulch, landfill space is conserved and burning them is avoided thereby reducing pollution. Residents may bring a shovel and container and take home free mulch when available at the drop off sites. For more information, call the Ogle County Solid Waste Management Department at 815- 732-4020 or visit www. oglecounty.org.

Public Voice Company donates books to school
Dear Editor, On Tuesday, Dec. 16, 2014, I was invited to QBI, or Quality Books Inc. Mrs. Stephanie Wendt, a QBI employee and an Oregon school district parent, contacted me with a proposal that would allow Oregon School District 220 to obtain free books for our school libraries. After speaking with her, I emailed the staff in the district, asking them what type of library materials they needed in order to support their curriculum. I received several responses, and was able to fulfill all of the requests. QBI donated thirteen boxes of brand new books to our school district. One box was for Mr. Majewski, our English Language Learner teacher. Two boxes went to David L.
Rahn Jr. High. Oregon High School received a box of new fiction. At Oregon Elementary, our Jefferson-wing library received one box and our Etnyre-wing library received the other eight. I would guesstimate that there were 100 books in each box; times 10 equals 1000 new books. There were 40 in the high school case and another 40 for Mr. Majewski. I would give a grand total of around 1200 new books. I would like to extend a HUGE thank you to Mr. Rob Zimmers and all of the members of the staff at QBI. The students and teachers of District 220 are extremely appreciative. Your generosity will touch hundreds of readers for many years. I shared one of the cases briefly with Mr. Nate Rogers, a sixth grade social studies teacher. He took one look inside and said: “My sixth graders are going to LOVE these books! When will you
have them ready Mrs. Green? allowing us to facilitate the Tomorrow would be great!” program at the bank. Sincerely, Well Mr. Rogers, we won’t have them done that quickly, Ginger Morhardt but will have them available Karla Merdian to our students very soon. Kathy Scholl Thank you again!

How to reduce your injury risk when exercising Exercise enthusiasts look to avoid injury like the plague. Injuries are akin to kryptonite for athletes, who tend to be averse to inactivity and unaccustomed to life away from the gym. But injuries are a legitimate threat to athletes of all ages. Fortunately, there are several steps athletes can take to reduce their risk of injury. • Work with a professional. Personal trainers can be expensive, but novices might want to work with a trainer as they begin a new fitness regimen. Even veteran athletes can benefit from working with a professional, who can help individuals tailor a workout routine that best suits their bodies and fitness goals. A trainer can show you how to use machines properly, and many trainers stay abreast of the latest developments in exercise science, making them valuable sources of information on everything from workout tips to stretching techniques and more. Even if you can only afford one or two sessions with a
trainer, make the most of those sessions by asking as many questions as possible. • Recognize your limitations. Whether you are beginning a new workout regimen or already have an established routine, you still need to recognize your limitations. If you’re just starting out, don’t push yourself, as your body will need time to adjust to regular exercise. If weightlifting will be part of your new routine, lift light weights initially and gradually work up to heavier weights as your body grows more acclimated to strength training. If you already have a set routine, it’s also important that you recognize any limitations you might have. For example, if you have nagging knee injuries, avoid exercise that might prove especially taxing on your knees. • Take a slow and steady approach to each workout. One of the easiest ways to suffer an injury while exercising is to dive into vigorous exercise without first preparing your body.
Warm up your body before hitting the weights or going full bore on the treadmill. Warming up before a workout readies your muscles for the stress that’s coming later in your routine. If you don’t warm up beforehand, your muscles will be cold and loose, possibly leading to strains, tears or other painful injuries. Gradually increasing the intensity of your workout as your body warms up, rather than going full steam from the get-go, can greatly reduce your risk of injury. • Stretch at the end of each workout. Soreness and stiffness should not be a regular byproduct of your workouts. While novices will almost certainly experience some soreness and stiffness at the onset of their routines, such feelings are normal because you are exercising muscles that likely have not been worked out in quite some time. But as your body becomes acclimated to routine exercise, that soreness and stiffness should go away.
If it does not, that’s likely because you are not stretching enough at the end of your workouts. Muscles shorten during a weightlifting regimen thanks to the repeated contractions they undergo as the body does repetition after repetition. Stretching helps the body return to a more natural position, reducing the likelihood that you will develop tight, sore and stiff muscles. • Take time off. Even the most accomplished athletes in the world take days off from their exercise regimens. Tired, overworked muscles are more susceptible to injury, so make sure your body has enough time to rest and recover. Skip a workout if your muscles seem stiff and sore, or change up your routine so you aren’t taxing the muscles that don’t feel up to snuff. The risk of injury is always present for exercise enthusiasts. But there are Professional trainers can help men and women tailor several ways to greatly reduce their exercise regimens to meet their specific needs and that risk. reduce their risk of injury.
Many men and women struggle to find time to exercise. If hectic schedules dominated by professional and personal commitments have made it difficult to make exercise part of your daily routine, you might want to consider skipping the snooze button so you can work out in the early morning hours. Early morning workouts
have their ups and downs. Glucose levels in the body tend to be low in the morning, when many people wake up with a relatively empty stomach. Low blood glucose levels can cause feelings of nausea and weakness and possibly make you feel faint. In addition, since you likely aren’t moving much while you’re asleep, your joints and
muscles are likely less mobile early in the morning than they are in the evening, which can make morning workouts difficult and, if you don’t allow yourself more time to warm up, put your body at greater risk of injury. But morning workouts also can energize you throughout the day, and many people find it easier to consistently
exercise in the early mornings than at night, when distractions or long days at the office can affect your motivation to workout. Early morning exercise routines can be difficult to adjust to, but there are some ways to make the adjustment to such regimens go more smoothly. • Make sleep a priority.

Prioritizing sleep makes it easier to get out of bed in the morning, when you will face the daily temptation to hit the snooze button and roll over. But if you aren’t sleep deprived, you will find it easier to skip the snooze phase of your morning routine and get right out of bed. Skip the late night talk shows and call it a night earlier, making sure you get between seven and eight hours of sleep each night. Once you establish a new sleep schedule, you will find it easier and easier to get up and hit the gym in the morning. • Designate more time to warm up. Early morning workout routines require athletes to warm up more than they would when exercising at other times of the day. As previously noted, your body is perhaps at its least mobile right when you get out of bed, so set aside more time to warm up when you workout in the mornings. Five to 10 minutes of light cardiovascular exercise before you begin your workout can be enough to increase your body temperature and loosen your body up so it’s ready for exercise. • Don’t go it alone. The buddy system is effective for many people regardless of when they exercise, but it can be especially beneficial for men and women who want to start working out in the morning. If someone is waiting
for you at the gym or if your significant other is up and ready to go, you’re far less likely to skip a morning workout than you would be if you are going it alone. • Eat at your own discretion. Some people simply cannot eat before a workout, while others find working out on an empty stomach makes them faint and weak. The problem many people who work out in the early morning encounter with regard to eating before their workouts is they simply don’t have the time to eat and afford their body enough time to turn that meal or snack into fuel that will benefit their workout. A study published in the Journal of Applied Physiology found that eating a meal 45 minutes before a moderateintensity workout enhances exercise capability. But morning exercise enthusiasts typically find they do not have that spare 45 minutes to wait around while their bodies absorb a meal. Eating healthy before exercise, and giving your body adequate time to absorb that meal, can definitely fuel your workout. But if that 45 minutes ultimately compromises your ability to workout, you may want to have a glass of orange juice or a drink that contains carbohydrates so your body has some fuel as you exercise. Many adults find that mornings are the only times they can consistently exercise.

Hydroponics workshop Jan. 27 A workshop on Growing Food Indoors Using Hydroponics will be presented on Tuesday, Jan. 27, from 5:30 to 7 p.m. at the Ogle County Extension office, 421 W. Pines Rd., Oregon. Hydroponics, a method of growing plants in water instead of soil, is becoming increasingly popular for growing food indoors.
Participants will learn to grow lettuce, herbs, or other vegetables inside in the middle of winter. Candice Miller, Extension horticulture educator, will demonstrate how easy it can be to make a home hydroponic system. Miller will discuss the basics of how hydroponics works, the materials needed to build a system and the
maintenance required. This hands-on workshop will allow participants to make their very own hydroponic system to take home with them. The workshop is open to the public but preregistration is preferred. The fee for this program is $15. All materials to build a hydroponic system are included except for
aquarium air pump and grow light. For those who would like to attend the lecture but not make a hydroponics system, the fee is $5. Registration can be completed on line at http:// web.extension.illinois. edu/bdo or by calling the University of Illinois Extension at 815-732-2191.
Business Briefs Hospital welcomes new general surgeon SwedishAmerican is pleased to welcome its newest general surgeon, Ancil Philip, M.D. Dr. Philip graduated from the University of Redlands in California, and earned his medical degree from the Medical College of Wisconsin in Milwaukee. He completed his general surgery residency at Mayo Clinic Arizona in Scottsdale
X-ray system will improve spine diagnosis Rockford Spine Center (RSC) recently installed a new Samsung digital X-ray machine that improves patient safety and digital photo quality to aide in diagnosis of spinal conditions. The Samsung Dual Detector GC80 is a wireless robotic system that on average lowers the radiation dose to patients by 30-50 percent while still providing a superior digital photo. Rockford Spine Center is the first in Illinois to utilize the wireless Samsung technology. Since its inception in 1895, X-ray technology has been a useful tool for physicians in diagnosing conditions and getting a glimpse inside a patient’s body. RSC uses X-rays of the spine to diagnose the cause of back or neck pain, fractures or broken bones, arthritis, spondylolisthesis, disk degeneration, tumors, spinal deformities such as kyphosis
and the University of Wisconsin Hospital and Clinics in Madison, serving as chief resident in his final year. Dr. Philip is a clinical assistant professor at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health and has a special interest in several areas of surgery including minimally invasive/robotic, endocrine, emergency general, colorectal, hernia and gallbladder. He is a member of the American College of Surgeons and the American Medical Association.
He holds several academic honors from the University of Wisconsin, including the Surgical Resident Teaching Award, UWAA Alumni Resident Teaching Award– Outstanding Resident and the Outstanding Resident Educator Award. Dr. Philip joins Drs. John Haeberlin and Abraham Sayon in the new partnership of UW Health Surgery at SwedishAmerican. For more information or to schedule an appointment, call 779-6968700. Dr. Philip participates in a variety of insurance plans. Patients should check with
their plan administrator for verification of coverage. SwedishAmerican is a not-for-profit healthcare system headquartered in Rockford. The health system is comprised of two hospitals, 30 clinics, a home health care agency and a foundation. SwedishAmerican is a division of UW Health, which is comprised of the academic healthcare entities of the University of WisconsinMadison, including: UW Medical Foundation, UW Hospital and Clinics and UW School of Medicine and Public Health.
or scoliosis, or congenital abnormalities. “Our number one goal is giving patients their lives back and it all starts with the proper diagnosis,” said Dr. Fred Sweet, fellowshiptrained spine surgeon, Rockford Spine Center. “X-ray images are an important tool in determining a course of treatment.” While the technology has not changed much, the quality of images and patient safety has evolved immensely. Samsung’s GC80 provides a spectrum of diagnostic and patient-centric tools aligned to meet the various demands and needs of both the care provider and patient. The system offers the following benefits: Patient safety – The GC80 lowers the dose of radiation to patients minimizing unnecessary exposure. Additionally, the machine is robotic with a collision sensor that recognizes when objects or people may be near
and automatically stops. Patient comfort – The X-ray table is designed to move with great flexibility in six directions. This is meant to help patients who are immobile or who have severe injuries to position themselves easily for a scan. Exceptional quality images – RSC will have higher quality images with the ability to enhance the contrast and sharpness further. This will aide in making the proper diagnosis, which is critical in treating spinal conditions. Increased efficiency – The GC80 is a fully automated wireless system that allows RSC to reduce image processing time 10-fold from 30 minutes on average to three minutes. The increased efficiency decreases wait time for patients and allows the radiology technician to see additional patients. “From workflow to dose management, Samsung’s digital X-ray technology balances science with
purpose without jeopardizing image quality,” said Charles Richardt, US DR Channel Manager, Samsung. “Rockford Spine Center offers innovative care and this X-ray technology will further enhance its capabilities, which will have a positive impact on patient care.”

Chana couple has KSB’s first baby of 2015 By Christi Warren Sauk Valley Media Lynn and Matt Kalnins were pretty surprised when the nurses told them their daughter, who was born Jan. 2, was KSB Hospital’s first of 2015. “They just kind of said, ‘Oh,
by the way, you’re the first one,’” Lynn said. “We were the only ones in there at the time, but as soon as we delivered, within half an hour there was another baby born, and then as the night continued, there were two more born, so it was kind of a domino effect.” Caroline Marie Kalnins,
all 8 pounds, 2 ounces of her, was born at 10:16 that Friday morning. “It’s kind of funny. I mean, it’s something that we can always kind of talk about,” Lynn said. “Our other daughter was born before the Fourth of July, so we kind of joked that our daughters like to be born
around holidays.” Four-year-old Abigail, born July 3, also was delivered at KSB. “We didn’t find out the gender for either pregnancy, so it made the moment even more exciting to know that we had a little girl to join our family,” she said. “Our
daughter was hoping for a sister the whole time because she’s in love with the movie ‘Frozen’ and wanted a sister just like Elsa.” The Kalnins live outside Chana in Ogle County, and both Lynn and Matt work in Ogle County. Lynn is assistant principal at
Chana Education Center, and Matt is a police officer with the Oregon Police Department. The parents, both 32, were married in 2007 and will celebrate their eighth anniversary on Sept. 1. “Like I said, it was just such a surprise,” Lynn said. “We’ve had quite a year!”

“I have suffered 24/7 for 20 years with back pain and had years of treatment …and I’ve had it all (surgery, physical therapy, hospital stays, ESI’s, back braces, body casts…to name a few ) and nothing worked. With 4 bulging lumbar discs in a row, this treatment has been a God-send…a real answer to prayer. I began to be pain free during my 2nd week of treatment and today, after 6 weeks of treatment; I am PAIN FREE 99% of the time (the other 1% is when I do something I shouldn’t have done). The benefits I have received from this treatment have been great. Along with virtually no pain, I have also lost weight. I feel that my general health has improved as well. How great it is to hear my wife thank me for not kicking her all night long because the pain caused me to flay my legs at night. How wonderful I feel not complaining about back pain all the time.”
- G.E.
“My next step before being treated…. was to get around in a wheel chair. After treating my lumbar as well as cervical my life has been changed. I now have increased mobility and I am not having to take pain medication anymore. I don’t have to sleep with a special pillow anymore. I can now cut the grass and do other chores. I don’t have to use the assistance of furniture around the house to help me balance. I am actually starting to function again.”
- F.A.
“I actually got results, not the run around that I experienced with other doctors. I have seen much improvement with my back and I will continue taking care of myself, since my treatment…. May God bless the doctors and staff for being so patient, kind and caring.”

Marcos earn a conference win By Rob Laird For Sauk Valley Media
and spreading the ball to create easy scoring chances on offense. For Marcos junior forward Max Simmons, who finished with 13 points and a teamhigh eight rebounds, Tuesday was a good palate cleanser after Saturday’s 58-52 loss at Aquin. “After that tough loss, we needed to come in and get the victory,” he said. “We’re getting into the thick of the conference schedule.” For all their struggles, AFC showed some alligator blood, remaining within striking distance through the end of the third quarter, and after Bret Gittleson opened the fourth quarter with four straight points for the Raiders, the Marcos’ lead was trimmed to 52-44. But the Marcos responded quickly, with Simmons recording a 3-point play to stretch the lead back to nine points. The undermanned Raiders, missing several players for a variety of minor disciplinary issues, simply didn’t have the fuel to offer a final push, and Polo ended the game with a 20-5 run. “We showed a lot of composure tonight,” Polo coach Matt Messer said. “There were times that (AFC) cut it close and we thought about calling a timeout, be we waited to see how our kids would respond. Every time, we responded well.”
To hear Ashton-Franklin Center basketball coach Russ Zick tell it, you’d think his Raiders see Polo in their sleep. It certainly seemed that way Tuesday night as Polo played the role of Boogeyman to perfection, throttling an undermanned AFC squad from the opening tip in a 7049 beatdown. The win put the Marcos back on the winning track and knocked the Raiders off their perch atop the Northwest Upstate Illini East. “I don’t know what it is, but when our guys hear ‘Polo,’ they just wilt,” Zick said. “Polo played terrific today. They’re a great team. But they’re not unbeatable, and our guys act like they are. Every time we got close tonight, we got scared.” Indeed, it was a nightmarish night for AFC, which entered the game unbeaten in conference play. The Raiders committed 10 turnovers in the first quarter, and a desperate Zick called timeout after timeout in the opening minutes in an attempt to restore order. With 2:58 remaining in the first quarter, Zick had used all five of his timeouts, and his team trailed 16-5. At the end of the frame, the score was 18-9. While AFC spent the first quarter hiding under its figurative bed covers, Brad Cavanaugh led the Polo was having a field day, Marcos with 14 points, with jumping the passing lanes to Richie Bartnick adding 13 to force turnovers on defense go with seven rebounds.

Oregon wrestlers ended their long winter break at the Polo Invitational Tournament on Jan. 10. In front of a good sized and enthusiastic Oregon crowd, the Hawks came away with two championships and third place. Glenbard North JV won the team title with 190 points followed by Camanche, Iowa with 180 points. The Hawks had 162.5 points, 21.5 ahead of third place Fulton and 26 more than fifth place Belvidere North. Polo was tenth with 63 points, edging North Boone by one point. Oregon moved into a solid third place in the standings in a strong championship semifinal round, winning five of seven matches and a consolation semifinal. Things got a little tougher in the medal round. The Hawks dropped three of the championship matches, won one third place match, and lost their only fifth place contest. Glenbard had four champions and extended their lead in the medal round. The Hawks gained a couple of points on Camanche, and put some distance between themselves and the rest of the field with the hardware on Polo’s Max Simmons goes up for a shot over Freeport line.

Cardinals earn a win The Forreston Cardinals picked up a 66-51 win at home Saturday night against Milledgeville. The Cardinals had an early lead 29-14 after the first quarter and a 48-22 lead at the half. Forreston improved their lead slightly in the third quarter and starter the fourth quarter with a 66-38 lead. Milledgeville shut out Forreston in the fourth quarter with 13 unanswered points. During this run, Forreston coach Travis Ross called timeouts to try and improve the Cardinals defensive play in the fourth quarter. Wyatt Kerchner needed
the night with 19 points, Robert DeVries had 12 points, Nathan Schneiderman had 12 points, and Ethan Groom had 10 points. Kaleb Reining added 2 points, Aaron Shelton had 4 points, and Markus Edler had 6 points. The win brings Forreston’s record to 7-3. Forreston took on Aquin Tuesday night. The Cardinals took Aquin to overtime, but were unable to close out the game. Forreston lost 63-57. Forreston was led by Robert DeVries with 16 points and Ethan Groom had 11 points.

Marchetti pinning his way to the title and Mennen with two pins and a technical fall before a 7-2 win in the final. Corey Grady at 145, John Ghibellini at 182, and David Labash at 220 finished second. Matt Crandall at 285 won the third place medals. Garrett Rude, at 170 , took fourth and Chris Alaniz was sixth at 106 pounds. Skylar Carlson at 126 and Cole Burke at 195 were both eliminated in the quarterfinal wrestlebacks and Anton AbaVarela went out in the first round of consolation. Marchetti only made it into the second period once in the tournament. He started with a first round bye, went out front with a chicken wing at 1:20 in the quarterfinal, and led 6-1, put in a half nelson, and reloaded it for the fall at 2:47 in the semifinal. In the final, Marchetti worked an arm bar for a fall at 1:03. Mennen came from the middle of the pack and took out the second and third seeds on his way to the first place mat and defeated the top seed in the championship. He pinned with a chicken wing at 2:37, then hooked up the butcher at 2:26 in the quarterfinal. In the semifinal, Mennen took an 8-0 first period lead, extended it to 13-3 in the second and finished an 18-3 technical fall at 5:30 with a three point cradle. In the final he had backpoints in the first period
and rode out the third to win 7-2. Grady took a wing over the front at 1:44 to advance to the quarterfinals where he trailed until the final seconds. He needed a reverse to the back in a half nelson for five points as the buzzer sounded to pull out an 11-9 victory. Keeping the fans on edge in the semifinal, Grady
reversed with 40 seconds left in the match and held on for the 4-2 win. In the final Grady never got rolling, and went over in a cradle and was pinned at 3:15 to take the silver. Ghibellini had a first round bye and hooked up a cradle at 1:49 in the quarterfinal. Next Turn to A2

Lady Cardinals struggled at AFC By Patrick Mason Sauk Valley Media Sometimes Allison Prestegaard has to mind her head. She had to duck when she jumped to slap a wall before heading into the locker room before pregame warmups. Other times, Prestegaard, the 6-foot-3 AFC forward, has to duck to avoid sharp cross-court passes from her spot underneath the basket, like she did during the Jan. 9, 60-32 win over NUIC East foe Forreston. Sister Madeline Prestegaard, a 6-2 center, has the same problem. “We’re going to have a size advantage on a lot of teams,” Allison Prestegaard said. “Sometimes me and Madeline will see double and triple teams; for us to be successful, we need players who can shoot from the outside and keep teams honest, and we have that in Alisyn.” Alisyn Essex has been that stretch player for the Raiders this season. Essex, a 6-foot forward, has the ability to balance the floor for AFC, and that’s what she did during
Friday’s win. With Forreston sending multiple defenders to sandwich the Raiders’ height under the basket, Essex was able to unleash 3-pointers, a shot she had spent large portions of practice this season perfecting. Essex drained three corner 3s in the first half off slick passing from guards Krista Beach and Cassidy Koning. The outside shooting forced the Cardinals defense to shift defenders to defend the shot. That opened up the lane for Allison Prestegaard to score a game-high 13 points. “That shot is what I work on a lot,” said Essex, who finished with nine points and four steals. “I’ve always liked shooting, and Coach [Chris Jahn] believes in me to make those shots. I know if I can hit them, it will open the floor up.” With opposing teams focusing on the Raiders’ bigs, as Forreston did on Friday, Essex has become a crucial component to the team’s offense. The Cardinals (4-10, 2-3) looked to slow the pace of the game from the start and played keep-away at the top

of the key, searching for cracks in the Raiders’ 2-3 zone. Occasionally, Forreston found open players on back cuts early on as it got AFC’s zone to shift, but Jahn adjusted and had Beach and Koning pressure the guards up top. What resulted was a dominant defensive effort that included forcing 27 Forreston turnovers throughout the game. Koning finished with nine
points and added four assists, while Beach had nine points and three assists. The Raiders led 29-18 at halftime, and cruised to a 47-18 lead heading into the fourth quarter. For AFC, Friday’s game was more about the future for the Raiders than it was the present, and Jahn liked what he saw, as each player on the roster played in the game, and 10 scored at least two points in the win.

Cain was nicked for a stalling point, but Rude dropped to the third place match with a tough 2-1 loss. Cain was injured in the match and defaulted the championship match to get second. In the third place match Cain scored first on an escape in the second, but did not have much power late, losing an escape and a takedown to get fourth place 3-1.

In the lower bracket, he got turned with a half nelson and pinned at 3:34. His opponent took an 18-4 major decision over Andy Rucker of Polo in the consolation semifinal. Rucker had lost his opener 7-2. Aba-Varela was on his back twice in the first period of his first match, pinned in a chicken wing at 1:06 on the second turn. He lasted just 50 seconds in his second match, pinned with a half nelson. From Polo, 126 pounder Braxton Stamm was pinned at 3:59 by the eventual third place winner in his opener, and won by a fall in 41 seconds in his first consolation match. His tournament ended in the wrestleback quarterfinal with a fall at 1:06.

Top seed Jesse Ditzler was upset 6-5 in his opener, losing a takedown to his back at the start and a reverse in the second. A late reversal was not enough to make up the difference. His opponent took the tournament title. In the lower bracket, he pinned at 1:35 and 0:36 to get to the semifinals where he won 8-6. He took the fifth place medal with a 7-6 decision. At 152, Jake Hanlon was pinned in his opener at 1:53 and pinned at 1:40 in the lower bracket by the eventual fifth place winner. At 220, Juan Dominguez was reversed to his back at 2:42 by the eventual third place winner, then countered a throw for a pin at 3:31 to get to the fifth place mat where he won 7-1.
Sports Column Former Oregon coach to coach at Rock Falls By Andy Colbert Reporter Last month, there was a sports article in the Sauk Valley paper that caught my attention. It told of the decades-long futility of football at Rock Falls and a major coaching overhaul that was taking place. You know there are problems when the current players say more discipline and conditioning is needed. That’s not normal for a high schooler to request and one of the indictments on Rock Falls’ program. In a surprise move, athletic director Rich Montgomery applied for and was given the position of head coach by the school board. Though he has helped out
with the football off and on since last being the RF head grid coach in 1996, the 58-year old Montgomery was probably more on the retirement track than assuming the heavy lifting chores of being a head coach for a major sport like football. What is also unique about the staffing is that a wily group of veteran coaches have also been brought in, including five with head coaching experience. One of those is former Oregon Hawk boss Ken Scott, also a past varsity assistant with Dixon football. Like Montgomery, the 65-year Scott is no spring chicken and will be joined on the staff by the Mike Berentes, the star running back Scott used to block for in the mid 60s at Rock Falls. For the Berentes family, it will be a three-generation affair, as Mike Berentes Jr. will also help coach and youngest son, another Mike,
Today’s

will be a junior on the team. “I think Mike Sr. and Mike Jr. concocted this and Montgomery spearheaded it,” Scott said. “I think the school didn’t want to go with rookie (coaches) again and decided to go the veteran route instead. They had losing seasons 22 of last 24 years, so something is missing. Other sports do well. I don’t know the reason for the football struggles.” Besides trying to help solve this mystery, it was also a chance for Scott to reconnect with his old school and be a part of something that could turn out to be very special. Most 65-year old retirees would balk at getting back in the coaching circles again, but Scott has remained active in sports all his life and the only thing initially hindering his decision was the drive each day from Oregon to Rock Falls. “I couldn’t do this if I wasn’t retired,” Scott said.
“After mulling it over, the only negative I could come up with was the long drive. Other than that, I’m excited.” His wife of 45 years, Donna Scott, is also supportive of the venture. “I think it is wonderful,” said Donna. “Ken and the other coaches have so much to offer.” Scott sees his role as helping Montgomery on defense, while the Berentes will handle the offense. “I’ve watched the team and they need coaching,” Scott said. An advantage of having a largely veteran staff will be in trouble-shooting and fixing shortcomings, such as technique. Hopefully, what takes place on the practice field will translate into a more favorable won-loss record. But, there is more at stake than getting the old gang back together, as it were.

2004 to 2012, has signed on. “I don’t think this current arrangement guarantees more wins,” Scott said. “What it does is bring stability. The plan is to get the program built up and then bring someone in to take it over.” Besides the nostalgia of bringing former grads back to coach, Rock Falls opens its season with cross-town rival Sterling. Several years ago, Montgomery dropped Sterling from the schedule, as the competitive disparity between the two schools became far too great. The Rockets were supposed to play Harvard, its first-week opponent for the three years they have been in the Big Northern. Harvard opted out because of the long travel and chose to play Stillman Valley instead. “That doesn’t make sense for Harvard to want to play Stillman Valley, but it opened up the chance for Rock Falls and Sterling to meet again,”
Andy Colbert
Scott said. “However, it will be a 1-year deal only.” Scott also realizes that the dilemma of Rock Falls football is not all in-house. There is also the issue of the competition it has faced since joining the BNC in 2011. Their only win was in 2012 against Oregon. “The Big Northern is brutal,” Scott said. “But, we should at least be able to make a better effort on the field than what we have.”

Your involvement will benefit your neighborhood, give you a sense of pride and lead to new friendships.

gathering that will allow you to display your attributes and stand out in the crowd. Lady Luck is on your side today.
