For Long-Term Flourishing, Our Mums are the Word

O

ne of the joys of horticulture is nurturing growth that lastsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;those long-blooming, hardy plants that thrive through the end of the season.

Scott McAdam Jr.

At first glance, you may consider mums at big-box stores as the quintessential example of this sustained beauty. However, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only a matter of (just a little) time before you discover that what is in bloom now is sure to wilt and become brown. The reason this occurs is that these mums were likely grown in warm greenhouses to flush leaf growth and then chilled to force blooms to set earlier than is natural. Whenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the best time to purchase your mums? It is during the budding stageâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;just as they are starting to show color to maximize the blooming time. From there, you will have plenty of time to enjoy them flourish. Good news for McAdam shoppers: Our mums are budding right now! At our Nursery and Garden Center, mums are in stock, with two-gallon Mums priced at $9.99. Questions? Call us at 708-771-2299 or swing by from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday.

I Had a Car Accident. Now What? By DAN BROWNE, Forest Agency Insurance

3.

A car accidentâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;even a relatively minor oneâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;is a stressful experience for everyone involved. It can be easy to feel overwhelmed and confused after a collision, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important that you stay calm. There are a number of critical post-crash steps you need to keep in mindâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;steps that can help get your insurance in order or even save a life: 1.

Stop Your Vehicle. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re involved in an accident and don't stop, you may be subject to criminal prosecution.

2.

Determine the Extent of Damage or Injuries. Check to see if anyone needs urgent medical care. If you can, try not to move the vehicles unless they are causing a major problem with traffic. If possible wait for the police before moving anything.

Contact the Police. Call the authorities if any of the following scenarios occur:

Record as much information about the accident as possible. Be sure to include:

â&#x20AC;¢ â&#x20AC;¢

You or someone else is injured

â&#x20AC;¢

You suspect one of the other drivers may be guilty of a criminal offense (such as driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol)

Names, address, and phone numbers of everyone involved

â&#x20AC;¢

Description of the car(s)â&#x20AC;&#x201D;including license plate and VIN numbers

â&#x20AC;¢

There is significant damage to property or the vehicles

â&#x20AC;¢

The other partyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s insurance company information.

â&#x20AC;¢

Any of the vehicles involved in the crash are not drivable

â&#x20AC;¢

â&#x20AC;¢

You suspect you are the victim of a staged accident

DO NOT share your driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s license with anyone other than the policeâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;or allow anyone to take photos of your licenseâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;as this could put you at risk for identity theft.

4.

Follow the instructions given to you by the 911 operator. Police or emergency personnel will arrive as soon as possible. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t try to move anyone injured in the accident, as you may aggravate their injuries.

5.

If itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s safe to do so, get out of your car. If possible, take pictures of the scene, your vehicle, and your injuries.

6.

When itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s safe, move your vehicle to the side of the road and out of traffic. If your vehicle cannot be driven, turn on your hazard lights or use cones, warning triangles or flares, as appropriate.

7.

8.

Limit Your Conversation about the Accident with the Other Party. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important to limit your discussion of the accident and not to admit any fault or liability. You should only talk about the accident with the police, medical professionals and your insurance representative.

9.

Call your insurance company or Forest Agency Insurance as soon as possible after the accident. Inform your insurer of what happened and ask for next steps.

Naz thump Friars with shutdown defense

Brookfield Bashes Its Way to Tournament Win Second oldest little league tournament back on the rise with new vision By JAMES KAY Sports Editor

ALEX ROGALS/Staff Photographer

Nazareth’s Derrick Strongs (24) runs with the ball on Friday, Sept. 13, 2019, during a varsity non-conference football game against Fenwick at Valenta Stadium in La Grange Park

Big third quarter lifts Nazareth to 31-6 victory By MELVIN TATE Contributing Reporter

Many predicted that the first-ever football game between Fenwick High School and Nazareth Academy was going to be a highscoring affair, given that each team had prolific offenses led respectively by quarterbacks Kaden Cobb and J.J. McCarthy. In anticipation, there was a standingroom-only crowd on hand at Valenta Stadium in LaGrange Park. “I was very proud of the Fenwick community in the way it turned out for our boys,” Fenwick coach Gene Nudo. “They couldn’t help but take notice and got a little more of an understanding of what it means to be a football Friar. I got a phone call from the captain of the 1938 team; he called to wish me and the boys good luck. There aren’t a lot of places where you can get such a phone call.” The Friars put up a good fight for most of the game, but ultimately, the Roadrunners found a little more rhythm offensively in the second half to pull away with a 31-6 victory. “It was a hard-fought battle on both sides of the ball. We knew Fenwick was going to be a physical team,” said Nazareth head coach Tim Racki. “I was pleased with our defensive effort because we kept them out of

the end zone.” With 1:02 left in the first quarter, Nazareth blocked kicker Bryan Dowd’s 34-yard field goal attempt. The Roadrunners (2-1) then embarked on a 10-play, 82-yard march that culminated with Riley Theobald’s 18-yard touchdown run at the 9:57 mark of the second quarter. With Nazareth up 7-0, both the teams traded defensive stops for the remainder of the half. Four plays into the second half, Nazareth scored again on a 49-yard strike from McCarthy to Tyler Morris. “It was an isolation matchup on the outside,” said Morris. “J.J. just threw it, and I got it.” Midway through the third, Morris came up with another big play -- this time on defense -- with an interception of Cobb (10-for29, 142 yards, 2 INT) at midfield. His 37-yard return would set up Carrillo’s two-yard scramble to raise Nazareth’s lead to 21-0. The Roadrunners’ defense came up huge again on Fenwick’s next possession as linebacker Marcus Griffin strip-sacked Cobb, which defensive end Daine Hanson recovered at the Friars’ 46-yard line. Fowler’s 20yard field goal capped off a seven-play drive to make the score 24-0 Nazareth late in the third quarter. Fenwick (2-1) got a spark on the ensuing kickoff as Danny Kent returned it 92 yards for a touchdown. A failed two-point conversion left the score 24-6 Nazareth. The Friars began to build momentum as Greysen Cone

intercepted McCarthy at the Nazareth 45. Fenwick drove to the Roadrunners’ 7-yard line early in the fourth. On fourth-and-1, Cobb rolled out to his left but missed Eian Pugh in the end zone. Nazareth iced the game with a 13-play drive that chewed up over eight minutes. Carrillo’s second touchdown run, this one from eight yards out, and the point after by Fowler made the score 31-6. Outside of a few big plays, Fenwick had trouble sustaining offense. The Friars managed 144 yards in total offense, including just two yards rushing. Pugh (46 yards) and Brian Moore (26 yards) each grabbed three receptions. Defensively, Danny Farnan paced the Friars with 10 tackles. Bryce Legan added 7 tackles - including a sack of McCarthy in the first half. “We played against one of the best teams in the state, there’s no doubt about it. Nazareth is very impressive,” Nudo said. “I thought our kids did a great job of hanging in there for a half, but the third quarter did us in.” Both Nazareth and Fenwick will seek consistency as Week Four looms. The Roadrunners travel to Burbank for a Chicago Catholic League/East Suburban Catholic Conference Orange Division opener against St. Laurence. The Friars have another road challenge as they visit defending 5A champion Joliet Catholic in a CCL/ESCC White Division opener. Both games are on Friday, Sept. 20, with each kickoff scheduled for 7:30 p.m.

In the 56th annual Roy A. Overholt Little League tournament, Brookfield completed its sweep by taking down Western Springs 14-8 in the final game of the event. The star of the night was starting pitcher Daniel Lewis, who overcame a rocky start to pitch his way deep into the game. Lewis surrendered a ground rule double and a walk to the first two batters before giving up a three-run homerun to Western Springs’s Michael Murphy. Head coach David Campbell huddled his team up between the first and second innings to refocus his group of 11- and 12-year-olds. “I reminded them that we have scored so many runs this year and that we weren’t out of it,” said Campbell. “I was confident we were going to score runs, and we did just that.” Brookfield, who drove in 27 runs in the first two games of the tournament, would go on to score 14 unanswered runs. Lewis pitched 5+ innings of scoreless baseball after Murphy’s home run and started the final inning before Will Darrah and Steven Kuda took care of the last two outs. It was a tough break for Western Springs, who had played in an extra inning game the night before against LaGrange. They went into the game with a depleted pitching staff, which struggled with its location for most of the night. However, they did score five runs in the final frame to make things interesting. This was similar to their efforts against LaSee OVERHOLT on page 15

Missed chances give LTHS second loss of season

Hartman: Against good teams, you have to execute By JAMES KAY Sports Editor

In a heated intra-conference battle, Oak Park and River Forest High School varsity football team got its first win of the season against Lyons Township. OPRF quarterback Jaden McGill starred in the 23-13 victory, with 233 passing yards and 88 yards on the ground. He had three touchdowns (two passing, one rushing) while running back Eric Locke contributed 105 yards receiving on four catches. After the game, OPRF coach John Hoerster was encouraged by what he saw from his team on Sept. 13. “I think the kids are starting to figure out what football is all about,” said Hoerster, whose Huskies improved to 1-2 with the win. “If you do your 1/11th on the field and trust your teammates and coaches, good things happen. Our kids came out with fire in their bellies, and I am proud of how they performed tonight.” However, that fire didn’t ignite until the end of the first half. On the first series of the game, LTHS (1-2) ran five consecutive running plays to set up a 33-yard, play-action touchdown from quarterback Blaise Reichert. Down 6-0 early, Hoerster’s team didn’t panic. “I think we had some early-game jitters that we got out of our system early,” said Hoerster. “We really put together some nice drives at the end of the first half.” After OPRF took a 7-6 lead on a McGill 2-yard rushing touchdown early in the second quarter, both teams exchanged defensive stops. Deep in their own territory, the Huskies mustered a 29-yard punt with just under a minute to play that put LTHS on Oak Park’s 42-yard line. The Lions almost took advantage of its scoring position when Reichert overthrew a pass down the sideline. Just

like on two other occasions on the night for Reichert, it could have led to a touchdown. The missed chance proved costly as OPRF’s Henry Detmer intercepted Reichert on the next play. “We had some mental lapses throughout the game on missed passes and missed opportunities with some touchdown passes that we probably could have made,” said LTHS coach Dan Hartman. “That was the difference in the game. Against good teams you have to make those plays.” Photo by JAMES KAY With 35 seconds left in the half, McGill completed two IT’S GOOD: Kicker/receiver Chris Clarke knocks down PAT in the second half against Oak passes under pressure to Park and River Forest high school. give OPRF a 14-6 lead headthing going on the ground as the defensive lines for OPRF ing into halftime.

On the next play, he led running back Eric Locke on a 36-yard strike on OPRF’s sideline for his second left in the fourth quarter to give OPRF a 23-13 lead.

Reichert finished with 152 yards through the air with a and settled in. We had a really exciting game plan going into this game and he was really confident with it. You could see pair of touchdowns.

Grange where Western Springs overcame a two-run deficit in the bottom of the eighth to advance to the championship. Ultimately, they came up short, but head coach David Sherlock wasn’t caught up with his team’s loss. “This was our forth game in a row and the kids were tired,” said Sherlock. “The effort from these 11- and 12-year-olds was just a lot of fun to watch. Brookfield is a great team, and it was nice seeing our kids not give up in the end.” Brookside celebrated their tournament win with each player and coach spraying bottles of sparkling cider on one another.

already been brainstorming for next year. I want to open it up to surrounding districts and get the information out there early and try to build it back up.” According to Nasti, the tournament used to host several teams from around the area and one of her goals is to bring that tradition back by including at least 8-10 teams in next year’s tournament. This year’s event only consisted of six teams after scheduling conflicts got in the way of some teams being able to participate. In 2016, there were only four teams a part of the event while in 2017 and 2018, there were five teams that played in each year respectively. However, Nasti was adamant that she is going to do everything she can to keep the tournament alive. “As long as I am involved, I am going to make sure we don’t let this die out,” said Nasti. “Brookfield is a baseball town. That is what we are known for.” “I really don’t want to see that change so we can keep this going for the future players but also the former board members and players who have been involved with the tournament in the past.”
