The close relationship between Special Olympics and law enforcement agencies has helped to provide the organization with important financial support, but it also has led to more involvement and volunteerism by the law enforcement agencies, De Paepe said. “It’s tremendous on many levels,” she said. Although the event falls under the umbrella of the Torch Run, anyone is welcome to participate in the Polar Plunge. To be part of the Yorkville site, plungers must raise at least $75. More than $100,000 was raised at the Yorkville site in 2013. De Paepe hopes to increase that amount to $114,000

WEST CHICAGO – While many area residents will avoid the cold this weekend by staying in front of their television sets with a hot drink and blanket, members of the West Chicago Police Department will plunge right into the icy temperatures at Yorkville’s Loon Lake Silver Springs State Park. For the second year, West Chicago police officers are participating in the Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics’ annual Polar Plunge, which helps to raise money and awareness for the Olympic games. “It’s for a good cause. You’re cold for a few seconds,” West Chicago Detective Robbi Peterson said. “But it’s definitely something you remember.” In 2013, Peterson plunged with his daughter Taylor, together raising about $600. They will be joined this year by Peterson’s younger daughter, Isabella, Police Chief Laz Perez and West Chicago Elementary School District 33 Liaison Officer Meagan Perry. This year, the West Chicago

this year. So far, 427 people are registered to plunge at Loon Lake, the largest number the site has seen, De Paepe said. Participants are encouraged to have fun with the event, and many dress in costumes, Peterson said. Other ways the West Chicago Police Department supports the Special Olympics include events such as Cop on Top, Tip a Cop, trivia nights, charity basketball games, car shows and more. This year, the department will host its first motorcycle show at West Chicago’s annual Railroad Days celebration. In addition to their support of Special Olympics, West Chicago police officers also hold an annual gift drive for Toys for Tots. In the past, officers fundraised for the St. Baldrick’s Foundation, a charity that supports childhood cancer research. Perez said these types of efforts allow officers to have positive interactions with the public. “I think it builds a trusting relationship with the community,” he said. “We’re here to serve them.”

WCPD to take the plunge for Special Olympics


D-33 to host meeting about all-day kindergarten By MARY BETH VERSACI mversaci@shawmedia.com WEST CHICAGO – The West Chicago Elementary School District 33 Board of Education will host a town hall meeting to discuss the districtwide implementation of all-day kindergarten in the 2014-15 school year. The meeting will be from 5:30 to 6:45 p.m. March 6 in the community room at Leman Middle School, 238 E. Hazel St. in West Chicago. The town hall will be an opportunity for the district to share information with community members and engage

If you go What: District 33 all-day kindergarten town hall meeting When: 5:30 to 6:45 p.m. March 6 Where: Leman Middle School community room, 238 E. Hazel St., West Chicago in dialogue with them, according to a district news release. On Feb. 6, the district Board of Education unanimously approved a full rollout of an allday kindergarten program piloted this school year at Gary Elementary. The district hoped to ex-

pand the pilot for the 2014-15 school year. After evaluating the resources available and the success of the pilot thus far, the district decided it would be feasible to offer allday kindergarten at all District 33 elementary schools, officials previously told the West Chicago Suburban Life. All-day kindergarten had been incorporated into the district’s Strategic Plan in 2011. The cost increase to provide all-day kindergarten is projected to be about $750,000 per year for the next five years, Director of Business and Operations John Haffner previously told

the West Chicago Suburban Life. This increase will include additional staff, transportation, supplies and materials, Haffner said. It will be paid for by an expected uptick in the General State Aid the district receives. Schools still will offer halfday kindergarten in order to comply with Illinois School Code, which says districts with a full-day program also must provide a half-day option. All-day kindergarten provides more time for teachers and students to keep up with the increased rigor of Common

Core and Next Generation Science Standards, Assistant Superintendent for Learning Kristina Davis previously told the West Chicago Suburban Life. Having a full day of kindergarten also allows students to participate in special classes, such as art, music and physical education, Davis said. And it gives teachers the time they need to provide kindergartners with extra supports or challenges when necessary. The regularly scheduled Board of Education meeting will take place in the community room immediately following the town hall meeting.

The play tells the story of newlyweds Corie and Paul Bratter and their adventures in a tiny apartment in Greenwich Village, according to a theater news release. While Paul is a lawyer wound a little too tight, Corie is

a free spirit who eagerly pursues fun. The cast includes Carl Zeitler of Lombard, Gail Cannata of West Chicago, Mark Fortman of West Chicago, Jim Rathjen of West Chicago and Amy Gage of Chicago.

As the van began to drive away, the victim clung to it, and Favela then reached through a window and stabbed him, Darrah said. The victim recovered from the injuries. “It was a drug deal gone bad,” he said.

The aggravated battery, a class three felony, occurred on Allen Avenue in West Chicago, Darrah said. In a separate incident, Favela was charged with manufacture and/or delivery of a controlled substance, a class one felony, at 5:45 p.m. Jan. 1, 2013, Darrah said. Favela possessed more than one gram but less than 15 grams of heroin at the time

of the arrest, he said. The arrest occurred as part of an ongoing investigation into local drug activity that involved the use of a confidential informant, Darrah said. Favela was sentenced Feb. 20 to five years in prison for this charge as well, he said. However, the two five-year sentences will be served at the same time.

With help, Wheaton Academy sets sights on new field By MARY BETH VERSACI mversaci@shawmedia.com WEST CHICAGO – After years of borrowing field time from other nearby schools, Wheaton Academy in West Chicago will have its own artificial turf field this fall for its football program and more, thanks to donations from supporters. “It will enhance our sense of community by being able to have home games here,” Head of School Gene Frost said. The artificial turf will replace the school’s current, grassy soccer field. The new field will be built for soccer, with the ability to paint lines for football and lacrosse when needed. As part of what is expected to be a $1 million project, stands will be installed on the east side of the field to match the west, creating about 800 seats total.

Consumer report for hearing aids Q: How come I can’t ind an independent consumer report on hearing aids?

A: he only independent report I’ve seen is the Consumer Report on hearing aids from 2009. he report Dr. Terri Lightbody didn’t evaluate (630) 580-5777 speciic hearing aid brands or manufacturers but instead, it evaluated the process a person goes through when itted with hearing aids (ie. Evaluated the person who did the itting—Audiologist or technician). A hearing aid is not a consumer electronic device like a cell phone, Ipod, etc. It is a medical device used for the purpose to treat hearing loss. he proper selection and itting of hearing aids require the skill of highly educated and trained professionals. hose highly skilled professionals are called Doctors of Audiology. here are other providers are hearing aid technicians, who also work with hearing aids but come with a lot less training than an Audiologist has.

he selection and itting process is so critical because it determines the outcome the patient experiences (positive or negative). Patients are usually unaware of how much work is required for a successful itting, including: Hearing evaluation; Hearing aid evaluation; Counseling; Earmold impression; Real ear veriication; Orientation & instructions on use; Routine follow-up visits; Unscheduled visits for adjustments; Hearing aid cleaning & maintenance; Rehabilitation services. Consumer Reports found that respondents that got their hearing aids from a Doctor’s oice gave these professionals higher marks than from those who got hearing aids from nondoctor retail outlets. his is likely due to the extensive training Audiologists receive. he Audiologists are the ones who know all the diferent hearing aids and their respective features. hey can determine what style, technology level and brand is most appropriate for the patient.

About the author: Dr. Terri Lightbody is a nationally known Audiologist and has her private practice at Town Square Wheaton. She works in the community as well as with the Lions Club of Wheaton, a non-proit organization dedicated to helping those with hearing loss and low vision. She is the forerunner in to-day’s most advanced hearing devices.

will not be constrained by a running track along its outside. It will be about 67 to 68 yards wide and 120 yards long. Wheaton Academy was expected to receive bids for the project this week. The project will be funded entirely by donations, including a challenge grant from former Wheaton Academy parents, Rich and Carrie Berg, whose son graduated from the school in 2010. The grant was given in the name of Performance Trust Capital Partners, of which Rich Berg is the CEO and co-founder. Other Performance Trust employees also supported the project. At the time when the grant was offered to Wheaton Academy, its leaders were in the pro-

cess of fundraising for a new science wing at the school. Rather than turning to supporters of the science project, the school found new donors to help make its field of dreams a reality. In addition to the Bergs, 40 others supported the new turf field, which will be called Performance Trust Field. Although the Bergs’ son, Clayton, had a positive experience as a high schooler at Wheaton Academy, Rich Berg said his desire to support the project stemmed more from an appreciation for the school’s overall mission to help other schools around the nation provide a strong Christian education. “To me, the mission of the academy is bigger than a local high school,” Berg said.

Continued from page 6 in 1989, Frost said. However, with a growth in enrollment and now a home field in the works, this fall will be a special time for football at Wheaton Academy, he said. “It’s a tremendous boost to the football program,” Frost said. Construction of the field is expected to begin this spring shortly after the final home soccer game. While school leaders hope to have the new space ready in July, it will be completed in time for the first home football game Aug. 29 at the latest. The field will be wider than a typical soccer field because it

Making plans for the library of the future Technology and the internet are changing our reading habits as well as our expectations about how to find and use information. In the 21st century, Americans’ relationship with libraries has also changed, and the role of librarians is shifting to reflect their expertise as content curators and trusted navigators in an expanding sea of information. Library leaders nationwide are adapting to the changing needs of library users by reimagining the library as an engaged community center. Nowhere is this more evident than at the West Chicago Public Library District. The district’s new strateCOMMUNITY gic plan, adapted early last VOICE year, specifically outlines its evolutionary plans and Shelley goals for the next five years. Campbell Central to that evolution was an evaluation of space utilization within the current facility. The evaluation, completed late last year, examined current use of space, industry trends, and our community’s needs in order to develop a space plan designed to serve the current and future needs of our users. The results provided a transitional plan to help design a functional, forward looking facility that makes maximum use of current technologies and service models to be enjoyed by our patrons. The library has now engaged the services of the architectural firm, Studio GC of Chicago, to provide professional services to update its interior and exterior lighting to improve suitability and reduce lighting maintenance costs and energy consumption while providing a more contemporary look. This lighting project is expected to be the first phase of a broader undertaking to remodel the West Chicago Public Library District facility to address the need for space flexibility, technology, service delivery, and collaborative spaces. In addition to lighting, infrastructure, sight lines and service points will be considered. The current lighting is original to the facility, which was built in 1993. Advances in lighting maintenance and energy consumption have changed dramatically in the past two decades. According to Administrative Librarian, Melody E. Coleman, the results are expected to be dramatic. “I think the patrons will appreciate the ‘wow’ factor when the project is complete,” she said. The library lighting project is expected to be completed in early spring 2014.

Shelley Campbell is the public relations specialist for the West Chicago Public Library District.

Warrenville Police Department Cpl. Steve Highland and Officer Amanda Varga (both front, center) are recognized at a Warrenville Public Safety Committee meeting Feb. 10.

When you have a health crisis, you want to know that your local emergency responders will be there for you. There’s no doubt that’s the case when Cpl. Steve Highland and Officer Amanda Varga of the Warrenville Police Department are on duty. Highland and Varga were recently recognized for saving a 79-year-old resident who suffered a heart attack in October 2013. We’re lucky to have such dedicated officers. There’s only so much you can ask a community to fund, but the West Chicago Park District isn’t just relying on local tax dollars. District staff is applying for a grant that would cover up to 75 percent of a $3 million project to add an indoor sports training facility at Reed-Keppler Park. This is a terrific example of how governmental bodies can aim to do great things without adding burdensome tax hikes.

Health Department trains police on heroin reversal drug By NATHAN LURZ

Narcan fast facts

nlurz@shawmedia.com Fine mists of water sprayed the air Friday at the DuPage County Health Department during a training session for area police officers, in an effort to ensure 2013’s record number of heroin overdose deaths isn’t repeated. The lesson was part of the department’s DuPage Narcan Program, which puts the non-addictive drug Naloxone, or Narcan, in the hands of local Erica Benson - ebenson@shawmedia.com police, allowing them to reverse Police officials, including Hanover Park Sgt. Kathleen McClaughry, the effects of an opiate overdose. With a rising number of learn to properly give a person experiencing a heroin overdose a nasal DuPage County heroin-related spray of Narcan on Friday at the DuPage County Health Department. deaths in recent years, including 46 in 2013, the drug could be a valuable tool, said Health Department Executive Director Karen Ayala. “These numbers are not nameless, nor are they faceless,” she said. “Each one represents a life lost.” Police are often the first responders to the scene of a drug overdose, sometimes before ambulances, said County Coroner Richard Jorgensen. Those two or three minutes can be the difference between life and death, he said.

• Nonaddictive • Can be used as a nasal spray or shot • Usually works within two to five minutes, immediately beginning withdrawal symptoms • Wears off in 30 to 90 minutes • People who have received Narcan in an overdose situation are more likely to seek treatment • Those who call 911 when there has been an overdose are immune to criminal charges for drug possession under the Good Samaritan Overdose Law • Nonmedical personnel, including civilians, can be Essentially, those overdosing on heroin become so relaxed they fall asleep and stop breathing, according to Jorgensen. If first responders give the person a dose of Narcan before their brain dies, they can survive. Since mid-November, the program has trained officers from 10 departments, as well as an additional 13 Friday.

The program’s first participants, including those from the DuPage County Sheriff’s Office, have successfully trained 364 officers and equipped them with two doses of Narcan each, according to the health department. They have been deployed since mid-January, while the additional estimated 541 participants in the Jan. 21 and Feb. 21 sessions hit the streets in March and May, respectively. Ayala said there haven’t yet been any cases where Narcan has been used by trainees. She said the department’s $40,000 investment has sufficiently funded the program, including the $16 individual doses of Narcan, through its most recent training session. The department was looking for partners in the medical community to continue it. This represents one of many county government actions to address what officials call a growing epidemic, including the $100,000 education initiative Be a Hero in DuPage. It is also the first county-wide application of a 2010 state law allowing nonmedical personnel to be trained to use the drug, Ayala said.

t National University of Health Sciences, if you’ve finished your general education requirements, you can earn a Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Science in as little as 16 months. Not only that, NUHS gives you the freedom to tailor your own degree program by letting you create a course list that matches your unique goals. Whether you plan to use your science education for a career in business, health care, or as a prelude to graduate school, you can construct a specific program to give you the best preparation. According to Dr. Randy Swenson, dean of NUHS’ College of Allied Health Sciences, “You can choose from any combination of courses in our BS program to complete your bachelor’s degree. There are no required core courses, just a requirement that you earn 64 credits. So no matter which of our many courses you pick to meet those credits, you’re on track.” That means that if you are interested in medical administration or hospital work, you can choose courses in Medical Spanish, Medical Terminology and Computer Software. Planning a career in sports and fitness, how about adding courses in Sports and Performance Nutrition, Kinesiology, or Exercise Physiology? If you are looking for a place in research or laboratory work, you might choose courses in Research Methods and Statistics, or Epidemiology. If you want to learn more about how the brain works, NUHS offers Biopsychology and Neuroscience. “Most of our students are interested in nutrition,” Dr. Swenson says. “That’s why NUHS has six separate courses in nutrition and food science available in the BS program.” NUHS is a primary destination for those seeking a professional career in natural health care. Originally founded in 1906 as a single purpose chiropractic college, National’s academic programs now encompass chiropractic medicine, naturopathic medicine, acupuncture, oriental medicine, massage therapy, and more. The best part of earning your bachelor’s degree at National University is that you’ll be taught by many of the same faculty who teach in the professional degree programs, and you’ll use the graduate-level facilities of one of the world’s top universities specializing in natural medicine. NUHS boasts an outstanding library of 13,000+ volumes devoted to health science, a cadaver-based gross anatomy laboratory, as well as an on-campus student clinic where you can take advantage of free health services. NUHS’ beautiful 35-acre Lombard campus is conveniently located in suburban Chicago, and offers on-campus housing, financial aid counseling, a student fitness center, and several student social and professional networking organizations.

usy adults need to make the most of their time. Work and family commitments keep down time to a minimum, so taking on the additional load of a college student is a big decision. They need a program that makes the most of their time. Courses that are directly applicable to the career, and partnerships with students who take their college experience seriously, and have similar goals. With that in mind, Northwood University’s DuPage campus in Glen Ellyn location offers an Adult Degree Program, which gives students the opportunity to pursue their education while maintaining the flexibility they need to balance family, work and school. “Northwood offers evening, weekend or online formats, as well as innovative options like our ‘3+1’ degree program, which allows students the opportunity to complete three years of coursework at partnership institutions

like College of DuPage and Harper College, before completing their final year at Northwood University,” said Ann Marie Rosen, regional development manager. The Northwood University student generally arrives with prior college credits from another university or community college. Many have been out of college for a while or took a break to focus on their career and family. They also have some students who are just beginning their university education. The Glen Ellyn Adult Degree Program Center offers a variety of degrees in both hybrid (a blend of face-to-face and online) and completely online formats. Classes are designed in partnership with industry specialists and advisory boards and are taught by experts who are active in the business world. Along with its Bachelor of Business Administration degree in Management and Marketing, the Glen Ellyn campus also offers

seven fully online degree programs including aftermarket management, automotive marketing management, health care management, marketing, entrepreneurship, management and finance as well as an online Masters of Science in Organizational Leadership. Northwood students work with one advisor from application all the way to graduation, assisting them with registration, academic advising, financial aid and ordering books. “With classes in eight-week and weekend formats, students can complete two or more courses in the same 16-weeks it takes traditional students to complete one class,” she says. Students also have the opportunity to earn credit for work and military experience. One student earned 27 credits for her prior work experience, Rosen said. “This made a tremendous impact on the quality of her life by enabling her to complete her degree faster and with substantial savings on top of it.”

MYSTERY DINER Restaurant reviews

Get a homestyle meal at Bulldog Ale House CAROL STREAM – Sometimes you just want a homestyle meal, a plethora of beer options, and a classy atmosphere to possibly take in a game. Bulldog Ale House takes the concept of a neighborhood sports pub and combines it with a full-service dining room. The bar area is partitioned off from the diners, meaning you can feel free to bring your family for dinner and not have to fret about any sports fans’ exuberance spoiling your meal. On a recent visit, I opted for one of the few seats not in direct view of a TV, primarily because it was a slow night in the sporting world. That was a good thing, because it allowed me to focus on the food. My companion, not much of a sports fan, was indifferent to the televised display, but had a great time regardless. Located in the Fountains at Town Center subdivision just off Lies Road in Carol Stream, Bulldog Ale House could, at first glance, be mistaken for a local version of an Applebee’s, but that’s not true at all. There’s nothing kitschy about Bulldog, just a clean, nicely decorated and well-maintained eatery with a focus on food and beer. Wanting to get a sense of what’s offered, we started out with the “super grande platter” of mozzarella sticks, chicken wings, chicken tenders and warm pretzels. As mozzarella sticks were apparently in short supply that night, my dining companion was delighted at the chance to substitute mini corn dogs instead. Served with a variety of dipping sauces, it could easily serve as a meal for two all on its own. We ordered entrees nonetheless, knowing we’d end up taking most of the meal home for leftovers – you can’t very well review a restaurant off a single appetizer. I selected the beef Stroganoff, a childhood favorite of mine that can be excellent when made well and terrible when not. In this case,

They’ve got all (again, topped with ice cream, it was terrific. Strips of skirt steak are sautéed with fresh garlic and mushrooms, then combined with red wine and brown sauce over fettuccine. Add a dollop of sour cream and the dish is complete. If I hadn’t been so full from the appetizer, I easily could have polished it off; instead, it made for a terrific lunch the next day. My companion was similarly stuffed from the appetizer, and selected the pot

roast over the pot pie, reasoning that the pot pie likely wouldn’t reheat as well. The pot roast is cooked in a red ale gravy with carrots, red onions and celery, and served with garlic mashed potatoes. Not usually a fan of cooked carrots, my companion enjoyed every morsel, proclaiming the various flavors complemented each other perfectly. Bulldog Ale House offers 32 beers on draft and 22 in bottles at the Carol Stream

the standard varieties you’d expect at any bar, and some more esoteric brands, such as Franziskaner Hefe-Weisse, Half Acre Daisy Cutter and Shock Top Belgian White. If you enjoy a draft brew, there’s probably something here for you. As you might’ve guessed, we didn’t have room for dessert, but would’ve been interested in the giant chocolate chip cookie (topped with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream and chocolate syrup) or

whipped cream and chocolate syrup). But then, who’s going to make it as far as dessert when the appetizer and meal portions are so tasty and generous? Maybe if we just split an entree …

Closing in on history Konchar nearing school’s all-time scoring record By SCOTT SCHMID sschmid@shawmedia.com WEST CHICAGO – Having tripled its win total from a year ago, this season has already been a special one for West Chicago’s boys basketball team. But it has a chance to become even more memorable tonight. With a Upstate Eight Conference crossover matchup against St. Charles North on tap, senior John Konchar stands just 16 points away from becoming the all-time leading scorer in program history. Wildcats’ head coach Bill Recchia holds the current record of 1,461 points. “What a phenomenal year and what a phenomenal career he has had,” said Recchia, who, like Konchar, played three-plus varsity seasons. “Careers like that should be capped off with that sort of achievement.” Konchar poured in 33 points, to go along with 22 rebounds, in Friday’s 61-60 overtime win against Waubonsie Valley. Mikey Bibbs added 10 points, which included a clutch 3-pointer to begin the extra session. “That was a great win,” Recchia said. “We had lost to them by four earlier in the year and that was a game we believed we should have won. We were confident going into the game, and they executed the gameplan defensively.” Prior to the Waubonsie game, West Chicago picked up a 71-67 non-conference win over Glenbard South behind 31 points from Konchar and 19 from Bibbs. Ryan Orr also checked into double figures

with 10. “That was another nice win,” the coach said. “We were down I think nine with six minutes left in the third quarter. I called a timeout, we righted the ship and went on a 12-0 run and held the lead the rest of the way.” The Wildcats improved to 1510 on the season after the Waubonsie game and finished with an even 6-6 mark in the Valley division. “Finishing .500 in conference,” Recchia said, “you are never satisfied [with .500], but that was a nice result for us. The kids have worked hard and that is something they should be proud of, especially with where we came from. “You look at what we’ve done in the second half and I’m very happy with it. The kids are playing hard and they believe in themselves and they expect Bill Ackerman - backerman@shawmedia.com to win ballgames. That was our goal at the beginning of the year, West Chicago’s John Konchar passes the ball in a game against East Aurora earlier this season.

By SCOTT SCHMID sschmid@shawmedia.com WHEATON – His team’s effort this winter has never been an issue for Wheaton Warrenville South boys basketball coach Bob Szorc. So on Friday, Szorc was thrilled to see the Tigers rewarded for their hard work with a 52-46 win against Lake Park. “That was a good road win for us,” he said. “We did a lot of good things, and that’s a credit to the kids and them continuing to keep working. Every day of practice is enjoyable and I’ve said that since the beginning of the season. I’m happy for the kids to get a win like that with the stretch we’ve been through.” The visitors had four players reach double-digits in scoring, led by the 16 points of Aidan Hernandez. Matt Kienzle had 11 points and Keishawn Watson and Joe Metzger each added 10.

even the kids said that they didn’t know how good we would be [this year]. But I said, you can’t doubt yourself. We knew Chrissy would be the focal point but we were asking Emari [Jones] to play a position [point guard] that she hadn’t played since eighth grade. “Everything went through Emari. And then we had Emmy [Gryna] and Kelly [Thornton] hitting shots from the outside which really stretched the defense. It really shows our kids what hard work is about, and that is what our program is based on.” In Eaton’s first season on the job, the Falcons went 1-27. Now the team is coming off a combined 42 wins over the past two years. “We talk about being a family,” the coach said. “If you love each other and respect each other, it’s a lot easier to work hard for each other. The kids have bought into the family part and they’ve bought into the hard work part. “We’ve worked hard to build a program. We went from being 1-27 to being able to compete with the best teams in the state. Geneva will finish ranked higher than 18th, and I think we are one of the top 25 teams in the state of Illinois, too.” That closeness with her teammates is what Baird will miss most. “They are the best,” Baird said of her teammates, which included fellow seniors Hadley Pfalzgraf, Abby Watts, Emily Barry, Bri Lyons and Jessica Wolff. “We’ve been through a lot together, both ups and downs, but we always stayed together. We will take these memories with us for the rest of our lives.”

Hard work pays off for South

WHEATON NORTH LEADERS

Wheaton Warrenville South’s Keishawn Watson dribbles the ball in a game against Wheaton North earlier this season. Watson and the Tigers topped Lake Park on Friday.

WHEATON – When Chrissy Baird walked off the Wheaton North basketball court for the final time Feb. 20, she departed as the all-time leading scorer and rebounder in program history. But there is little doubt that what the Falcons’ senior wanted most was to play another game. Instead, Geneva advanced to the Addison Trail sectional after posting a 75-63 victory in the Class 4A regional championship, leaving host Wheaton North with a final mark of 19-10. Baird, who scored 23 points and added 16 rebounds in her final game, needed nine boards to break the previous record set by Annie Bowen. She had ascended to the top of the scoring list in the previous game against Downers Grove South. “She did it through hard work and dedication to making herself better,” Wheaton North coach Dave Eaton said. “She had a phenomenal career and she can walk out of this gym knowing she gave it everything she had. But as good of a basketball players as she is, and she is arguably the best Wheaton North has ever had, she’s a 10 times better kid. We will definitely miss her.” The Vikings proved to have too much firepower in winning their 11th straight game. Wheaton North battled back from an early deficit to grab a 32-30 lead in the second quarter before the visitors ended the half on a 9-2 run. The Vikings’ advantage grew to eight at the end of three quarters and the Falcons didn’t get closer than six the rest of the way. “I think we tried to prepare ourselves all year by playing some of the best teams in the state,” Eaton said. “But they’ve got great athletes and good basketball players.” The loss could not take away what turned out to be a very successful campaign for Wheaton North, which entered the season with plenty of question marks after losing a standout senior class. “These kids exceeded everybody’s expectations,” Eaton said. “After last year,

Suburban Life ATHLETE OF THE WEEK CHRISSY BAIRD Wheaton North Senior | Basketball Why Baird was selected: Baird became both the all-time leading scorer and rebounder for the Wheaton North girls basketball program last week. Wheaton North senior Chrissy Baird ended her high school basketball career in style, becoming the program’s all-time leading scorer in the Falcon’s playoff win Feb. 18 and then moving to the top of the rebounding list Feb. 20 against Geneva. She finishes with 1,081 points and 829 rebounds in three-plus seasons on the varsity. Baird, the Wheaton Bank & Trust Athlete of the Week, spoke with Suburban Life sports reporter Scott Schmid about this season and the recognition she leaves the program with.

After losing such a strong senior class last year, how were you girls able to have another successful season? I was scared to lose their leadership more than anything. But people stepped up this year. These (fellow) seniors are the best and we led together. I’ll miss it, I’ll miss everyone dearly. I’m blessed and completely lucky,

and Wheaton North will always hold a special place in my heart.

What has gone into all of the success the team has had the last couple of seasons? We worked so hard in the summers. I was lucky to be a part of it, to be surrounded by people who work their absolute hardest, and to be around coaches who push you to work hard.”

How special is it to leave as the leading scorer and rebounder in program history? It took a lot of hard work and it took a lot of people around here believing in me. It was a team effort. I’m proud of the points, that’s a big accomplishment, but I’m more proud of the rebounds because that is all about heart. I hope people come after my records, it’s something to aspire to and work toward. It could be my little sister [who breaks them].

South’s Johnnic, North’s Thurston are fourth at state By SCOTT SCHMID sschmid@shawmedia.com CHAMPAIGN – After competing in the IHSA individual state wrestling tournament last weekend, Qarin Johnnic left quite a mark within the Wheaton Warrenville South wrestling program. And the best news is that Johnnic still has one high school season remaining. The junior wrapped up the 2013-14 campaign by placing fourth at 138 pounds in Class 3A. “It feels great,” Johnnic said. “I would have liked to have done better, but I wrestled tough and wrestled hard and took fourth place. I’m going to train hard during the offseason, come back down here and hopefully take the title, but no matter what, placing in the top four is a great feeling.” Johnnic won his first two matches before losing 5-1 to Mario Leveille of Marist in the semifinals. He bounced back to defeat Pernevlon Sheppard of Glenbard West 6-4 but fell 13-4 to Jimmy Davis of Waubonsie Valley in the third-place match. “It’s tough to lose in the semifinals and to come back because you want to be in the championship match so much,” he said, “but you have to put it behind you and keep pushing through because you don’t want to keep dropping places. I just kept pushing and wrestling hard.” The junior finished with a record of 43-7. “Overall, I had a great season,” Johnnic said. “I won DVC and wrestled tough. Taking fourth in the state is a great accomplishment. I broke the record at our school for wins in a season with 43, so overall, great

Marist assistant takes over St. Francis football SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA

St. Francis 2013 season

St. Francis High School announced Monday Mike Fitzgerald has been hired to take over the football program. Fitzgerald replaces Greg Purnell, who retired after leading the Spartans to a 47-26 record and a state championship in his seven seasons. Fitzgerald comes to Wheaton from Marist High School, where he has been the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach for the past six years. He also coached at Lake Forest College and Carroll College. Last fall, Marist eclipsed 5,000 yards of total offense. “I really enjoyed my time at Marist, and that’s one of the

• Overall record: 5-5 • Suburban Christian Conference record: 3-4

reasons I was attracted to a school like St. Francis,” Fitzgerald said in a news release. “Both schools not only challenge their students academically and athletically, but they put a premium on character development. I can’t wait to get started and become a part of the St. Francis family.” As a player at Lake Forest College, Fitzgerald led the team to its highest win total in school history. As the team captain, Lake Forest College claimed its

first conference championship in 20 years, which qualified them for their first NCAA playoff appearance. “Mike’s coming from a great program and institution,” St. Francis athletic director Dan Hardwick said in a release. “You can’t ask for a better mentor in [Marist head coach] Pat Dunne. We’re extremely excited to have him on board with us here at St. Francis. He runs such exciting systems that I know our players will be enthusiastic to work hard and play for him. “Mike really fits the mission and vision of St. Francis, and I couldn’t be happier to welcome him into our family. He will be very successful here.”
