Community organization reaches out to youth Heart Haven Outreach, commonly known as H20, has been making it their mission to open their hearts, give their time By Laura Katauskas staff reporter
katauskas@buglenewspapers.com @lkatauskas
Some people toss around terms like,“give it your all,” or “give a little heart.” But for one organization, it’s all about heart, and it shows. Heart Haven Outreach, commonly known as H20, has been making it their mission to open their hearts and give their time and resources to Bolingbrook and Romeoville teens, providing mentoring and support to those that may not find anywhere else. “This is my passion;we love these kids and love to be able to tell their success stories,” said Executive Director Ryan Lawrence. Real life sometimes isn’t pretty, but teens know that H20 is a safe place to go and find either someone “real” to talk to, or learn a thing or two from their peers.Among other programs, the support groups are offered every Tuesday where peers meet to talk about their struggles
and are facilitated by trained adult support group leaders. “A lot of them have never talked to an adult in this way,” said Lawrence. “We offer a safe place to go, and we want them to know that they are not alone in whatever they may be going through. There are no strings attached; we are simply there for them.” The 501(c) 3 nonprofit organization focuses on supporting teens experiencing challenges at school or in their home life.While it can be as simple as a pick-up game of basketball or a trip to the mall, it can be as eye-opening one-onones that reach out to a teen who suddenly opens up in the middle of a skit or cooking lesson. The group was organized by community leaders in 2004, opened its doors in January 2005, located at 201 Canterbury Lane in Bolingbrook; and expanded to Romeoville in 2012 when a grant from the Community Foundation of Will County allowed them to purchase a 12-passenger

van, eliminating the barrier of transportation for some. H20 has been active with community partners as well, working with the Valley View School District creating the ATS support group, an alternative for students committing 1 to 10 day inschool suspension offenses.

Library moves to eliminate digital divide

For some, a lack of computer knowledge is all that stands between them and a job. In a time when unemployment still plagues the area, the Fountaindale Public Library District saw a need, and when the opportunity for a grant arose, the district seized the chance, creating a program it hopes can change lives. The Eliminate the Digital Divide grant was written in hopes to specifically support basic training programs to increase digital literacy. The library’s goal is to have at least 600 individuals in the community participate in the program. “We opted to create the most diverse and widely appealing program we could with the $64,000 in funding we received,” said Deputy Director Catherine
Yanikoski. “We are excited in providing a technology training program that can be tailored to the unique interests and goals of our participants. Fountaindale’s mission is to “inspire our community through education, knowledge and recreation,” and we have sought to design a program that embodies that for all who participate.” A new program for district patrons,“Passport to Success,” is kicking off Oct. 1 and is tailored to specifically challenge, or “Eliminate the Digital Divide” that keeps someone from effectively attaining computer skills. The Passport to Success program offers four unique tracks to meet the needs of the different groups in the community: The Community Track will introduce patrons to personal computer technology and software, and can open the door to the new wave of social
media, e-reading devices, and free online classes. The Español Passport provides many new classes for patrons who prefer or need Spanishlanguage technology classes. The Business Passport is the first step to learning and enhancing business skills and career ambitions. If you’re looking to break through into a new career or to make a move into the job market, the program will offer resume writing, job searching, and LinkedIn classes to give patrons the connections and inspiration to follow their dreams. Lastly, the program offers the Diploma Track which is available to patrons 19 years or older. Once patrons complete the Diploma track they will have the opportunity to apply for one of the 75 grant funded scholarships for the high school diplomas. >> to see the full version of this story, check out buglenewspapers.com
goal is to help students develop coping skills to help them avoid the same negative behavior. “I’ve seen how the work they do positively addresses these kid’s lives,” said H20 and Valley View School Board Member Dan Falese. “What they accomplish is huge and they have taken action. Hats off to them. Now we need everyone to stand up and see what this community can really do.”
The group bases its program and curriculum on the Search Institute’s 40 Developmental Assets, proving that building self-esteem and confidence is critical. Lawrence said one of biggest issues teens face is the lack of using their time productively, so in turn H20 is constantly trying to provide those opportunities from real-life conversations and service projects to arts and crafts and field trips. But with all that heart and effort, comes time and dedication, all done with a few volunteer staff. To keep this level of commitment, the group is always looking for volunteers. There are three types of volunteer opportunities with H2O: Event Volunteers, (done in a day, large activities two or three times a year); Behind the scenes help, (fundraisers, office help, maintenance, etc.); and Program Volunteers, (weekly opportunities that involve a regular commitment to volunteer with teens during program time, September-June). To volunteer with H2O, you must be 21 years or older. For more information, check out www. HeartHavenOutreach.org or call 630-226-8403.

IDOT woos investors for South Suburban Airport State and county officials are confident the South Suburban Airport plan is a win for the entire region By rex robinson for the bugle
sweditor@buglenewspapers.com @JolietILNews
State officials hoping to get plans for a South Suburban Airport off the ground in Peotone via a public/private partnership shifted into full sales pitch mode Tuesday to entice potential investors to climb aboard and come fly with them. While difficult to tell exactly how many investors attended what Illinois Department of Transportation officials coined an “international industry forum,” about 150 were on hand for IDOT’s “Partnering for Progress: Innovative Delivery of the South Suburban Airport” event held Tuesday morning at the Tinley Park Convention Center. Mixed in with the investors (mainly equity firms and banks), business and aviation industry professionals were Will County board members and staff, as well as various state and local elected officials. After presentations by Susan Shea, director of IDOT’s Division of Aeronautics, and Roger Driskell, director of IDOT’s office of Innovative Project Delivery, and a brief statement from Acting IDOT Secretary Erica Borggren, officials met one-on-one with investors to get feedback on the project. Two big screens set up on each side of the stage flashed statistics and other aspects of the airport plan as Shea and Driskell gave their presentations. The media were not invited to stay for any of the one-on-one meetings, and potential investors declined to speak to members of the press. State and county officials are confident the South Suburban Airport plan is a win for the entire region and will spur economic growth for not only the south suburbs, but the entire state. “Today’s forum and your involvement here is another sign that Illinois is open for business,” Borggren said, adding that she looked forward to hearing
feedback from potential investors and get their ideas on moving forward with the project. If the financial part of the puzzle and other pieces fall into place, construction on the project could get underway in 2017,officials said. Shea said the airport is designed for very long-term economic growth, an infrastructure project that will remain relevant for 50, 75, even 100 years and be here for “our children’s children.” IDOT, to date, has spent more than $80 million and acquired 3,600 acres of the estimated 5,800 needed for the inaugural airport. Land acquisition, according to Shea, is continuing. The state is in condemnation proceedings with 11 property owners and has made offers with another 19 land owners, according to Shea. Shea has said recently the federal government is requiring the state to buy land for the airport as part of its Tier 1 Record of Decision. Property owners in the area have wondered why such a thing could occur. While there is still much more planning to be done and financial hurdles to pass before the first shovels are dug into the ground to make way for the first runway, Shea said the project is moving forward. “It’s not a matter of ‘if,’ ” she said, “it’s a matter of ‘when.’ We are ready to move into the public/ private partnership.” She said the airport is needed for jobs, increased commerce from expected cargo business, as well as the estimated 1.7 million potential air passengers in the region now and the 2.3 million expected by 2030. “There is truly unlimited potential,” Shea said. The state needs investors on board in order for the estimated multi-million project to take flight. Estimates for the first phase of the airport (what officials refer to as the inaugural airport plan or IAP) which includes plans for 9,500foot commercial runway would cost a total of $702 million. Driskell outlined how the
public/private partnership would work. He said bringing in the private sector allows a better way of balancing risk, as the investors are going to demand a “reasonable rate of return” on their investment. Shea and others pointed out the South Suburban Airport is needed to reduce congestion at the region’s two other main airports – Midway and O’Hare – and Peotone is the best location.There is plenty of room for expanding the airport as well as land for other economic development around the proposed airport, they said. Will County Executive Larry Walsh, Will County Center for Economic Development CEO and President John Greuling and other county officials said they know if the private investors don’t come to the table and the airlines don’t commit to landing planes there, the airport will not come to fruition. However, all are confident that the plan is solid and the potential for economic growth both in the region and the state is huge. The next critical step is the approval of the master plan by the Federal Aviation Administration in 2015. A public/private partnership airport plan has never been done in Illinois, and there are only a couple of examples of others around the country. However, Greuling said there are a number of public/private partnership funded airports around the world. The South Suburban Airport is not the only public/private partnership project the state is attempting to sell to investors. The Illiana Tollway, estimated to cost $1.25 billion, if constructed would run from Interstate 55 in Wilmington to Interstate 65 in Lowell, Ind. The forum Tuesday was a way for officials to gauge interest from prospective investors. “We’re trying to get a sense of how many players there are,” Will County Board member Denise Winfrey, D-Joliet, said just before forum got underway. >> to see the full version of this story, check out buglenewspapers.com

Feds approve next phase of Illiana plan The agency on Sept. 26 released a final Tier 2 Environmental Impact Statement By nick reiher managing editor
nreiher@buglenewspapers.com @JolietILNews
The Federal Highway Administration has approved the next step for the Illiana Tollway plan. The agency on Sept.26 released a final Tier 2 Environmental Impact Statement, which proponents hope clears the way for a Record of Decision on this phase soon. The ROD initially was to have been issued in the summer, but issues with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service held up the required EIS approval over concerns about several endangered species. The Final EIS describes the process, including the identification of transportation needs, consideration of dozens of alternatives,and a comprehensive analysis of the potential effects on environmental resources, such as wetlands, wildlife, cultural resources, air quality, and noise. The potential effects on future traffic operations caused by all of the proposed alternatives, including the noaction alternative, are outlined as well. In its report, the FHWA said parties still need to continue working with the Fish and Wildlife Service to iron out some likely effects to wildlife, including endangered species. Illiana coordinators also need to get public input on the updated Air Quality Report, the agency said. Issues that can be worked on after the ROD is issued include a Clean Water Act Section 404 permit from U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and change in access to the Interstate approvals from the FHWA. Proponents in both states say they can begin acquiring land for right-of-way after the ROD is issued. One local economic official
was thrilled at hearing of the Tier 2 EIS approval. “The release of the Final EIS is the most significant step taken to date by Illinois and Indiana to move this project along,” said John Greuling, CEO of the Will County Center for Economic Development. “The fact is was done in under four years is monumental in itself. This gives assurance to the possible P3 (public-private partnership) bidding teams that the two states and the federal government are squarely behind this project.” And that support is critical right now for proponents. A movement led by Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle and Palos Hills Mayor Gerald Bennett seeks to remove the Illiana Tollway project from a regional planning agency’s long-range plan due to renewed funding concerns. The fast-moving, $1.3 billion Illiana plan —proposed to run some 50 miles from Interstate 55 in Wilmington to Interstate 65 in Indiana – hit a snag this time last year when some officials of the board of the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning fought the plan after their staff said the state’s user and revenue projections were flawed. Opponents said such flaws would result in too high a percentage of public funds given toward what was proposed as a bi-state, public-private partnership, or P3. Preckwinkle and Bennett, CMAP Board chair, say they want to bring the issue of removing the Illiana from regional funding at an Oct. 8 combined meeting of the CMAP Board and its Metropolitan Planning Organization. The CMAP Board last year voted to reject the Illiana plan, but MPO Policy Committee, which decides the funding matters for CMAP’s 2040 plan, approved placing the Illiana on the funding list by an 11-8 vote. The latter vote took heavy lobbying and vote-counting by then state Transportation Director Ann Schneider, who
chaired the MPO Committee, and Will County Executive Larry Walsh. As a new discussion and vote approaches, Schneider resigned several months ago amid charges of hiring favoritism, and Walsh is recuperating from prostate cancer surgery. Erica Borggren, the state’s Acting Transportation Director, will chair the MPO, and an alternate from Will County will stand in for Walsh at the Oct. 8 meeting if he is unable to attend. In a July letter to CMAP Executive Director Randall Blankenhorn, Preckwinkle asked that the agency revisit the issue. She was opposed to the Illiana then, Preckwinkle said, because CMAP staff said the state’s figures were flawed. She is more concerned now, she said in the letter, because state officials have said they plan to use more public funds to guarantee shortfalls, which have been estimated to be between $440 million and $1.1 billion. “It would be impossible of me to support a project like this that will compromise other, more fully vetted transportation improvements with greater benefits for Cook County, metro Chicago and Illinois,” Preckwinkle wrote in her letter. Bennett said the state now wants to guarantee at least $750 million in public funds toward the Illiana plan, which he believes is too much of a burden on taxpayers. He and others also do not believe the tollway would draw enough users to pay back private investors, meaning the state would be on the hook for the remainder. Bennett made some waves at last year’s CMAP meeting on the issue when he referred to the Illiana project as a “political plan” and a “highway to nowhere land,” Bennett said in a Sept. 24 telephone interview he would have no problem if $2 billion instead were to be directed toward improving Will County roads. >> to see the full version of this story, check out buglenewspapers.com

use your head on spotting signs of ovarian Cancer By nicK reiher managing editor
nreiher@buglenewspapers.com @JolietILNews
About seven years ago, we did a family campout up in Minnesota after my daughter Jillian’s high school graduation party. All Tammy’s brothers and sisters and their families were there as we camped in a new spot,at least for me,Madison Lake. This place, according to Tammy, was upscale for camping.That is, there were indoor showers. I still preferred Ely, but, hey. At least at night, there still was the campfire and s’mores. As I sat there one night, the little dustmop dog belonging to my brother-in-law’s fiancé sat on my lap, practically purring. Not just that night; every night we were there. Now, every time I have seen that dog since, it has growled and snapped at me, and treated my lap as if it were a gas chamber. The only difference between then and now is, now I don’t have a six-inch infection in my colon that could burst at any time. I knew I was having a bad bout of diverticulitis, but I didn’t know how bad. But the dog seemed to. Dogs, as many know, can sense things the rest of us might not: drugs, bombs, diabetes, epileptic attacks and now, ovarian cancer. I heard a presentation on this recently when I had the honor

of appearing on WJOL’s “Lynne, Mary and Natalie Show.” My friend Lynne Lichtenauer had invited me specifically to hear a presentation by Vallie Szymanski, Executive Director and CoFounder of Ovarian Cancer Symptom Awareness. This was an emotional topic for Lynne. She said on the radio this was the first time she had disclosed she is a survivor of ovarian cancer she had some 35 years ago. She knows she was amazingly lucky because ovarian cancer has a survival rate of an astonishingly low 40-plus percent. One of the reasons ovarian cancer claims more than half of
its victims, Szymanski told us, is because the warning signs are not always that obvious. By the time they get worse, it often is too late. As you can see, many of these are can be symptoms of other illnesses.The key, Szymanski said, is if one or more of these persists for a couple weeks. If they do, see your doctor immediately. Men, get the woman in your life to go. A blood test and ultrasound can help with the diagnosis. And an early one is crucial. Now, Szymanski said, scientists are working with another early detection system. His name is Olin, a Chocolate Labrador Retriever that is being trained to identify odorants associated with ovarian cancer cells. Dogs can do this, she added, because dogs can have between 125300 million scent receptors, depending upon the breed, while we humans have some 5 million. Believe me, I thank God every time that little dustmop dog snarls at me these days. But until they can get Olin and a bunch of other dogs trained to use their noses to help detect ovarian cancer, we’ll have to use our brains. Cut out that list above, and if you or the woman you love is suffering with these symptoms, get to a doctor … now. Please don’t wait. I want you reading for a long time.
Letter to the editor
Abuse should not exist in a civilized society It seems that many times, celebrities, politicians, athletes, get treated differently
Abuse should not exist in a civilized society. Recent reports indicate that several cases of abuse occur every minute of every day, 24/7/365. Abuse comes in many forms: physical, mental and financial, to mention a few. Lately, physical abuse has been in the headlines and can be among many types, mainly domestic, spousal, elder,
and/or child abuse. Disagreements occur between people all the time. Domestic and financial issues, plus children’s behavior can push a person under stress to act inappropriately. However, explanation doesn’t qualify as an excuse. It seems that many times, celebrities, politicians, athletes, or those politically and/or financially connected individuals get treated differently than we common folk when it comes to these and/or criminal issues. This should not be tolerated. Morals, ethics, and the law should be equal for all.
If anything, those of position or status should be role models and held to a higher authority. We need to strongly teach at home, houses of worship, school, and work that abuse of any kind is not to be tolerated. When abuse backed up by strong evidence like video and/or pictures, and/or physical injury exist, action should be swift and strong. Likewise, accusations without definite proof should be turned over to law enforcement for investigation and recommendation prior to action. We need to eliminate abuse in any form from our society.

For Romeoville, the playoffs start now By Mark Gregory sports reporter
mark@buglenewspapers.com @Hear_The_Beard
For the Romeoville football team, the playoffs start now. After a 37-28 in Southwest Prairie Conference loss Friday night to Oswego, the Spartans dropped to 1-4 and are one loss away from being eliminated from playoff contention after earning a berth a year ago. “We have four games left and we believe that if we do things right, we can win out and get in the playoffs at 5-4,” said Romeoville coach Jeff Kuna. “We are fighting for our playoff lives. If we win, we are still alive but as soon as we lose, we are out. “I think we are one of the best 1-4 teams in the state of Illinois right now, I really believe that. We are three plays away in three of those losses.” At times Friday night, it looked as if things may be turning around for Romeoville, but red zone turnovers, nearly 100 years in penalties and getting run on proved too costly. “Oswego is a very good football team and I am pleased with the effort, but at the same time, I believe there are plays that I think we could have made and we will get better so
that we do make those plays,” Kuna said. Oswego senior running back Treshon Weddington carried the ball 15 times for 172 yards and three touchdowns and was pulled just before halftime and taken to the locker room with reported back spasms. “Our Achilles’ heel all season has been giving up the big play. Unfortunately all year it has been on the run,” Kuna said.“We get caught in a pass defense and they hit a big play on the run and that was what happened here. We gave up several big runs in key situations.” Not to be outdone, Romeoville junior quarterback Anthony Kitchens was 18-for46 passing for 403 yards and three touchdowns. He did toss a pair of interceptions inside the 20-yard-line. “Offensively, Anthony played a good game. He made a couple bad decisions in the red zone and a young quarterback will do that thing. He is young and he got confused at times and made a couple bad reads, but overall he made plays for us,” Kuna said. “With the receivers we have on the outside, they are as good as anybody has. If he gives them a chance to make a play, they will make a >> see now | page 16

Joliet’s Quigley has banner year for Sky By Mark Gregory sports reporter
mark@buglenewspapers.com @Hear_The_Beard
Joliet’s Allie Quigley has played basketball for a long time. The former Joliet Catholic Academy and DePaul University standout has been a professional since being drafted by the Seattle Storm of
the WNBA in 2008. Although Quigley has been in the WNBA since her draft day, but has enjoyed more of her success overseas – until this year. Quigley had her best season as a member of the WNBA this year with the Chicago Sky, which culminated in her helping the Sky reach the WNBA finals and earned her the 2014 WNBA Sixth Woman
of the Year Award Presented by Samsung. Quigley earned 26 votes from a national panel of 38 sports media voters, surpassing San Antonio’s Jia Perkins in the voting. Quigley was a force off the bench for Chicago, leading the Sky in scoring a team-high nine games. >> see QUIGLEY | page 14

Spartans showing signs of improvement By Scott Taylor sports editor
staylor@enterprisepublications.com @Taylor_Sports
One sign of an improved team is a compliment from a fellow coach. Romeoville received one of those compliments after a hardfought loss to Plainfield Central Sept. 23. “You have to give Romeoville a lot of credit,” Central coach Erik Vogt said. “Over the past couple of years they have been getting a lot better defensively. They handle the ball extremely well.” Romeoville coach Melissa Zimmer confirmed the comment by Vogt. “A lot of it is desire,” Zimmer said. “The girls are wanting to play and improve.They are giving 100 percent.” The defense made things tough on the Wildcats throughout the match, picking up key blocks and digging up several kill attempts. “We are playing better than we have all last year and all this year right now,” Zimmer stated. “Jasmine Benitez and Casey Sturman are back row players who have increased our level of play by allowing us to have an aggressive offense with their passing. Kurin Czerwin and Anrrea Chaidez are doing a great job in the middle.” The Spartans (5-15) opened fast, building leads of 5-2, 9-4 and 12-7. However, Central battled back to tie it at 12-12 and eventually took a 20-16 lead. The Spartans showed their heart by coming back to take leads of 23-22 and 24-23 before a service error and two Wildcat points finished the set, 26-24. “We came out strong, but had difficulty maintaining it,” Zimmer said. “A lot of Plainfield errors helped us get the lead, but our girls played excellent defensively today. We had minimum mistakes.” Romeoville jumped out to leads of 9-5 and 11-6 in the second set, but seven straight Wildcat points gave the visitors a 13-11 lead as they would go on for a 25-20 win. >> see SIGNS | page 16

Sports >> QUIGLEY, from page12 She also scored in double digits 21 times this season, the most by any member of the team, scoring 20-plus points twice. Quigley came off the bench in 33-of-34 games for the Sky this season and posted her first start of her career on June 10 against Seattle. She averaged 11.2 points per game during the season, nearly three times better than her previous career best (3.8 in 2013). She also had career-best averages in rebounds with 2.2 per game (0.8 in ‘08 and ‘09) and assists with 1.9 (0.6 in 2013). During the season, Quigley posted career-highs in field goal’s made (12), field goal’s attempted (22), three-point field goals made (3, five times) and points (27 at Atlanta on 7/13). He career-best freethrow percent (.879) and three-point percent (.387) both ranked in the top 10 in the WNBA. Her 24.8 minutes per game
average doubled her previous career best. “First and foremost, Allie’s work ethic is unmatched, so it’s nice to see her efforts rewarded,” said Sky head coach and general manager Pokey Chatman in a press release.“Her ability to play at such a high level, while also transitioning to the point guard position is a testament to her ability and she’s a big part of the reason we (made) the playoffs.” Quigley’s increased performance was key to the team as it suffered injuries to several key players throughout the season. “Before the season started, we had a talk and I could tell that she had a lot more confidence in me and she was ready to give me more minutes,” Quigley said. “Then, unfortunately we had people go down for various reasons and I probably played a lot more than she thought I would. Then a few good games really helped my confidence and that just kept going.” For winning the WNBA Sixth Woman of the Year presented
by Samsung, Quigley earned a cash award and a speciallydesigned trophy from Tiffany & Co. “It wasn’t something I thought of at the end of the year, like I was trying for the award,” Quigley said. “So, when it was being talked about at the end of the year, it was humbling and it made me reflect on all the ups and downs of the last five or six years of my professional career and all the ups and downs and coming from not playing at all and being in the gym getting my game better and then finally have this all happen this summer.” Late in the season, Quigley earned her first Player of the Week award for games played Aug. 4 through Aug. 10. She led the WNBA Eastern Conference in scoring, averaging 18.0 points per game. “(It was) well-deserved honor for a player that has stayed the course throughout her career.” Chatman said. >> see QUIGLEY | page 16

GAME 6:
bolingbrook @ lockport The details: I don’t think Joliet West coach Jason Aubrey will be getting any thank you cards in the mail from Lockport (1-4, 1-2) this week. After all but sleepwalking through three games, West woke the Raiders (4-1, 3-0) in the first half last week and coach John Ivlow was not happy with how they answered the bell. Lockport is coming off its first win in the Dan Starkey era and will have to be flawless to compete.

game time Friday, 7:30 p.m. Bolingbrook feeds off opponent’s errors and the downfall of Lockport in their losses this season have been self-inflicted mistakes.
Keys to the game: I’m sure Lockport had coaches in the stands Saturday at Joliet West and it saw what not to do against Bolingbrook – make mistakes.
The key for the Porters here will be perfection, while Bolingbrook has to come off the bus firing on all cylinders and not wait until after halftime. This is the final game for the Raiders before H-F and LincolnWay East.

Plainfield S. @ romeoville The details: BPlainfield South (23, 2-1) is coming off of two straight thrilling wins to get back in to the thick of the SPC and playoff races. Romeoville (1-4, 1-2) is fighting for its playoff life after a 37-28 loss to Oswego. The question again this week will be who comes out where for the Spartans. It looks as if junior Anthony Kitchens has played himself into the No. 1 quarterback role, while Kelvin Jones can be used on both sides of the ball, however, coach Jeff Kuna would not commit to any changes yet. Keys to the game: Romeoville has shown it can throw the ball with both QBs in there, but to win football games, the Spartans have to run the ball and stop the run.
game time Friday, 7 p.m. This will not only eat up clock, but the more Romeoville runs the ball, the less stress on the bodies of guys like Chuck Hunter and Mantel Nartey ho go both ways. This game is indeed week one of the Spartans’ playoffs, as a loss in any of the next four games eliminates them from contention. -compiled by Mark Gregory and Scott Taylor

berth in franchise history and advance to the WNBA finals for the first time ever, although the Sky was swept three games to none by Phoenix. “It was great to be there, we would have liked to have won,” Quigley said. “When the end of the year rolled around, we just didn’t want to stop playing and that showed on the court. We had that, ‘I don’t want to quit attitude.’ I think the ups and downs during the
year made us stronger and it all came together at the end of the year.” Quigley will now head back to play for TS Wisla Can Pack Krakow in Poland, the same team she played for a year ago. She is currently in talks with the team trying to get a few more days home. She said when she originally had discussed her arrival date in Poland, she did not factor in
playing for the WNBA title. “They want me there as soon as possible and I am trying to buy a few more days. It can be hectic and a little stressful at times and you are a little exhausted when you just finish a season here and then you have to go over and they want just as much out of you there,” she said. “But, I think we are used to it and we know this won’t last forever. So, I want to take advantage of it while it is
here and take advantage of the moment.” Before heading overseas, she took time to work a camp last weekend at the University of St. Francis where her sister, Sam, is the head women’s basketball coach. “I was at those camps when I was their age and looked up to the counselors,” she said. “It’s a fun thing to do for the kids in the community and with my sister.”
for 90 yards and a score. It was Kitchens’ second start of the season filling in for senior Kelvin Jones, who missed last week with a shoulder injury. Jones was on the field this week as a running back and linebacker and Kuna said his role going forward will be
evaluated. Kelvin had a bad shoulder last week and he couldn’t throw the ball, so that was what we had to do. This week he started throwing midweek, but we were short a linebacker so we needed him on defense and that was the best fit for
the team this week,” Kuna said. “When you have a small team, sometime you have to make adjustments within the lineup. He is such a good football player, that he can help us at different spots.” Oswego grabbed the lone score of the opening quarter
and Romeoville roared back, equaling the Panthers in both the middle periods. In the fourth quarter, Oswego earned a TD and safety on a bad snap and Romeoville posted a late score, but failed to recover an onside kick in the closing minute. >> SIGNS, from page 13 Nikki Crowley finished with 17 assists, Czerwin had four blocks and Lyric Miles had six kills and two blocks. Even with the loss, it was a promising outcome for Romeoville, which is closer to achieving its goals this year. “Our goal is to win in conference and win at least one playoff game,” Zimmer said. “We are going very attainable and realistic and it is showing with how they are playing on the court.” Romeoville fell to Oswego East in a close contest as well, 25-22, 25-20. The Spartans finished in ninth place out of 16 teams at the Reed Custer Invite over the weekend. They lost to Streeter 21-13, 2118 and Morris 21-14, 21-15 and beat Christ Lutheran 21-6, 21-7, Spring Valley Hall 25-9, 25-20 and Bloom 25-18, 25-17.

And just because you’re like that doesn’t mean you can’t lay out a game plan and say, “Hey, we make too much money to waste it all. We have too much coming in every month to be deep in debt and broke!” Being a Free Spirit just means you have to concentrate a little harder on the details, because those kinds of things just aren’t your nature.

‘Sleepy Hollow’ Season 2: Tom Mison on ‘Ichabbie,’ Jealousy and the Battle with War Variety sat down with star Tom Mison at the Television Critics Association summer press tour to find out what’s in store for season two By Laura Prudom

Fox’s “Sleepy Hollow” returned for season two on Sept. 22, and as the premiere opened, War came to town - in the form of Ichabod Crane’s (Tom Mison) long-lost son, Jeremy (John Noble). Bitter and vengeful after years of parental abandonment and manipulation by the demon Moloch, Jeremy has joined forces with the Headless Horseman to wreak havoc on the town and its inhabitants, which is bad news for everyone in Sleepy Hollow, since its protectors are currently trapped - Ichabod in a pine box six feet underground,and partner Abbie Mills in Purgatory, after freeing Crane’s bewitching wife Katrina (Katia Winter). The first season finale also left Abbie’s sister, Jenny (Lyndie Greenwood), at death’s door after an attack from Headless, and Captain Frank Irving (Orlando Jones) behind bars, leaving the odds stacked rather uncomfortably in favor of the apocalypse. Variety sat down with star Tom Mison at the Television Critics Assn. summer press tour to find out what’s in store for season two, including love triangles, Ichabod’s quest to redeem Jeremy and where we find our characters after last season’s shocking cliffhanger. Laura: The finale left Ichabod in a somewhat sticky situation, having been buried alive by his son - I imagine that situation has to resolve itself fairly quickly, to avoid the whole season taking place with Ichabod in a box? Tom: Not too quickly! I think that it would be a shame to leave all the characters in those predicaments and then just get them out instantly. The really nice thing is, the writers decided to put everyone in the worst possible situations before they worked out
how to get them out. So all of the questions that we, that everyone watching, has about how they get them out, those were the questions that the writers gave themselves. And then I think they just left thinking,“Well, what’s the coolest way of doing it?” And I think they’ve managed to achieve that. Laura: Much has been made of the sexual tension between “Ichabbie.” From your perspective, how does Ichabod see Abbie at this point? How do you approach their relationship in terms of his motivations? Tom: She’s a partner.They need each other. If they had a choice of partners, who knows whether they would choose that person or not? The really nice thing about it is that it’s not such a black and white answer. There are lots of things that they really, really respect about each other and lots of things that just annoy the tits off each other... as with lots of relationships, which is probably why so many people go into the shipping thing with them. I love the moments where they annoy each other, probably more than the moments where they work in a perfect harmony. That’s sexy. So in that respect, it’s a very sexy relationship. But yes, for them, in the front of their mind it’s that they need each other, they’re partners and they respect each other. Laura: And they have to save the world, so they have other priorities. Tom: Exactly. There’s an apocalypse coming. Let’s not get all doe-eyed at each other. Laura: And, as you and the producers have noted before, he’s a happily married man... Tom: Oh, yes. That should’ve

been the first thing I said.[Laughs.] D--n, yes, he’s married. Laura: But he and Katrina haven’t spent much time together over the centuries, what with him being asleep and her in Purgatory. So it’s arguable that he knows Abbie better than he knows Katrina at this point, given that Katrina has been keeping a few secrets from him. Tom: Yes. This is brought up in season two, the deceit. And of course, that’s going to be a problem. But he’s a man of honor and he loves his wife.
Laura: During your TCA panel, executive producer Len Wiseman said that thanks to“other characters that come in around [Ichabod and Abbie], you see jealousy come out in ways that are more interesting,” but that Ichabod and Abbie might also be reevaluating their feelings for each other this season. Can you expand on that? Tom: Well, reevaluating their feelings I think is a hangover from the last season where there’s questions of trust in the partnership. In terms of the love interest, yes, there’s a new character, played brilliantly by Matt Barr. And yes, he brings a completely new dynamic. Much
as Ichabod loves his wife and respects Abbie as a Partner with a capital P, someone comes in and if he starts distracting her, then that’s going to be a problem, and who knows when jealousy might creep in if someone starts taking her attention away? Laura: So it’s more a case of, “Pay attention to me,Abbie!”? Tom: Exactly. “Look at me. I’ve got long hair and a nice coat!” Laura: The show will also introduce one of Ichabod’s exgirlfriends, Mary, this season. Given the fact that Ichabod’s not from around here, that seems to imply that something supernatural may be afoot in her reappearance? Tom: There may well be. As with every glimpse into Ichabod’s past, it has knock-on effect in the present and she is certainly the case. It also reveals a lot of secrets from certain other characters... Laura: I hear we’ll also see more of the Headless Horseman in his non-headless form as Abraham, Katrina’s former flame. Tom: And I’m really pleased. Neil [Jackson] came in to join us to play Abraham only very briefly last season and I loved working with him. So he comes back into it an awful lot more. Again, that’s another problem: Katrina is with the Headless Horseman, but she hasn’t seen him as the Headless Horseman, she remembers him as Abraham, her one-time fiance, who turned bad purely because of his love for her. Laura: Which is kind of romantic, in a twisted way. Tom: Absolutely romantic. I think it’s desperately romantic of him to do that, to risk everything for the woman that he loves.So yes,
that does bring an interesting new dynamic to their relationship. And it’s also nice to explore Katrina a lot more because last year, she came in, she gave information and she was the quest for Ichabod, but now, Katia is getting to play around a lot more with more depth to the character and more understanding of who she is and why she’s here. Laura: On a literally related note, Jeremy is back and already causing a lot of trouble as War. How much is his predicament weighing on Ichabod, given that his abandonment - through no fault of his own - contributed to turning his son into this vengeful monster? Tom: There’s a war on.And one of the leaders of the opposition is your son. And that’s a very interesting direction to take with it and the various dilemmas that that brings. And that’s one of the good things about the show, it always comes back down to the characters and the reality of [deciding] what you do when you have to fight against your son. Do you fight against him as an enemy or do you try to appeal to him as a member of your family? And that’s one of the dilemmas that Ichabod finds himself in. I think the writers are very clever with this, to always bring every predicament - whether it’s a battle like that, or [choosing] which creatures appear in each episode down to “what effect do you want on the characters?” And I think that’s what, if I may say, elevates the show above a lot of the other fantasy shows.
