Taking a swing at golf in Michigan T

hough many North Shore residents own second homes in Michigan, I’ve visited the state only half a dozen times at my advanced age. The first time shouldn’t even count — when I watched The Who perform at the Silverdome in 1982, I could have been sitting in any state’s massive indoor arena.

I only traveled there because the group billed it as their farewell tour — and they’re still playing more than 30 years later. I won’t be fooled again.

But recently I was invited to play a golf course in the Upper Peninsula. Recently chosen by Golf Magazine as the 17th-best of Michigan’s nearly 1,000 public courses, Sweetgrass Golf Club — about a twohour drive from Green Bay in Harris, Mich. — is a challenging, interesting tract.

The big, undulating greens (made of L93, a top bentgrass) are full of character. None are formed in a standard circle — they come in all shapes and sizes and are as long as 60 yards. Depending on which of the five tee boxes a golfer is playing (the tips run 7,275 yards), the perspective on the course can differ greatly. Fox, deer, heron and geese populate the course, and the call of sandhill cranes can be heard during a round. White fences reminiscent of a Kentucky farm meander around the course boundaries,

As a movie-mad teenager on the North Shore, Gabe Klinger discovered the furtive power of a life spent enraptured by the flickering shadows, oldfashioned projection systems and stereo sound of darkened movie theaters.

“I didn’t even have my driver’s license, I had a permit,” Klinger recalled at Chicago coffee bar recently. “I was at New Trier, and I wasn’t supposed to drive, but one time I just risked it, and decided to take the consequences the next day. I ditched my last class to see ‘The Third Man’ at the Wilmette Theater.”

New Trier was fine and all, but it was no match for watching Orson Welles captured in expressionistic, high contrast black and white photography as the mysterious Harry Lime negotiating the labyrinths of post-war Vienna.

“Nothing was more important than the movies,” he said.

“Nothing was more important than the movies.” | Gabe Klinger After a modest entrance to the life professionally — as an usher at the Old Orchard theatre who in the summer of 1999 repeatedly watched Stanley Kubrick’s final film, “Eyes Wide Shut” — Klinger has carved out a niche through his dovetailing roles as film critic and journalist, teacher and a museum curator.

Now the 2000 New Trier graduate finds himself in the privileged position as a director himself — or what the French gloriously call a “cineaste.” He conceived, directed, produced and edited the documentary “Double Play” that charts the beguiling personal and professional friendship between the leading independent Richard Linklater (“Boyhood”) and the more radical avant-gardist James Benning (“13 Lakes”).

Begun with money from French television and completed with private money he raised through crowdsourcing, the movie premiered at the Venice Film Festival last year, where it was awarded a special documentary art prize. The film is available on video on demand (VOD) and as a digital download at iTunes and other digital platforms.

The movie came together quickly last year.

Having known Benning, Klinger pitched him the idea and the two met with Linklater in Berlin, where the director was presenting “Before Midnight.” Two months later, in April, Klinger and his small crew shot the film over four days, in

Austin, Texas and at Linklater’s home in Bastrop, Texas.

“Some films shoot for more than 200 or 300 hours over years, but that was not our film,” Klinger said.

“It was going to be a time capsule of the moment.”

The movie meditates on friendship, art, creativity and sports and draws out themes of time, landscape and memory as they are addressed in the different films of the two directors. The movie is structured around a retrospective of Benning’s films Linklater programmed for his own Austin Film Society.

Klinger weaves in biography and criticism, juxtaposing archival images and extracts by the two artists to explore overlapping themes and a shared sensibility that has flourished despite their 18-year age difference and the fact Linklater is widely known and Benning, who makes unclassifiable and highly abstract movies, is virtually unknown to the mainstream.

“There was an idea to illustrate the ideas being discussed, but what if you go one step beyond that and try to find visual symmetries between the images,” Klinger said. “It’s not just about illustration, it’s about intervention and my own critical voice.

“The idea was look at all of their work and what best represented their ideas, and what would help the audience refocus their own minds, so that it’s about variety and presenting a range of ideas instead of just one.”

The movie’s making parallels his own background.

“It was a film conceived in Berlin, shot in Texas, edited in Paris, finished in Portugal and premiered in Italy,” he said.

Klinger was born in São Paulo, Brazil and spent his formative years in Glencoe and Wilmette after his father, an advertising executive, transplanted the family here to work at Leo Burnett.

“You take resources where you can,” he said.

This month, Klinger disembarks for Greece to work on his first fiction film, what he calls a story about young people and doomed love. He discovered a long time ago working a job not connected to movies was a lost cause.

“It was a challenge making a documentary,” he said. “I want to keep challenging myself. Before I made the documentary, I was in New York, at a prestigious institution, but I didn’t see any personal growth and I realized I was very unhappy.

I didn’t want to be a functionary and I wanted to start producing my own work. My desire to make films developed from that.

“I realized later that all of my bad experiences in life have yielded something positive.” ■

AFTER ENDLESS REJECTION, BOOK BECOMES A BESTSELLER ■ by katie rose mceneely B.A. Shapiro is a New York Times bestselling author and a guest of honor at Ragdale Foundation’s Novel Affair on Sept.

26-27. Her new book, “Montage,” is due out from Algonquin in 2015.

How did you learn about Ragdale?

Outside of knowing about Ragdale and wishing that I could go there and hole up and write, I never expected this invitation.

I saw that Scott Turow is going to be there, and I’m so excited to meet him.

Reading: I am reading Anthony Doerr’s new book, “All the Light We Cannot See.” It’s about World War II, which is also what my new book is about. I also just am finishing Chris Bohjalian’s “Close Your Eyes and Hold Hands.”

Listening: I was at a Red Sox game, and baseball is amazing leveler; I was listening to the conversations around me, and they were so completely different from each other. There were people in front of us who were pretty drunk and yelling and swearing and there was a family next to us that was obviously highly educated and talking about baseball as metaphor. It was an eavesdropper’s paradise. Of course, the Red Sox lost.

That’s what they’re doing this year.

Watching: The last movie I saw was “Boyhood”—it was really good. Such a fascinating, unusual piece of work. It was kind of Woody Allen-esque in that there was a story, but they could ad-lib a lot —but it was also the real coming-of-age, in real time.

“In a different field, like a doctor or a lawyer, you go to school, get your degree, you move up. In creative fields, there’s no guarantee.” | B.A. Shapiro Following: It’s kind of hard these days not to be thinking about Ferguson. I am a sociologist; I have a PhD and I taught sociology at Tufts for a number of years.

Class and race issues have always been important to me, and this whole story is just so devastating in its sameness, in its repetition. We think we’re moving forward and we just keep doing the same things over and over again.

And there’s this whole ice bucket challenge — the thing that’s fascinating to me

B.A. Shapiro photography

by lynn wayne

is the people who criticize it. You can’t do anything that somebody’s not going to criticize, which is a good thing for an artist to remember.

Activity: I’ve been pretty much consumed by book stuff. I’m still on the road promoting “The Art Forger” — it’s going to be two years since the book came out in October. I’ve been working really hard to

get this new book out. I’ve also been spending time with my family: I have two new granddaughters.

Eating: I don’t eat meat and I can’t eat gluten because I have celiac disease. I eat a lot of fish, fruit, and vegetables. We live in an area known for its food and restaurants.

Neither I nor my husband cook, which is why we moved to a part of Boston where we can just walk to dinner.

What is your favorite mistake?

Writing “The Art Forger.” I had had five previous books published and none of them did very well. Then I wrote three more that I couldn’t get published. I decided to write one more, which seemed like a grave error. It was rejected by agents all over the country.

Then I found an agent, and it was rejected by every large publisher in the country. It got rejected because it wasn’t in a genre. It ended up getting picked up

by Algonquin, and it ended up being a bestseller.

The break is so elusive. In a different field, like a doctor or a lawyer, you go to school, get your degree, you move up. In creative fields, there’s no guarantee. You can work really hard and not have it work for you. It makes us all a little crazy. ■

Pop quiz: How many times has the SAT changed formatting since its introduction in 1926?

A) Once B) Twice C) Six times D) More than 10 times E) It hasn’t changed Pencils down, folks.

The answer may surprise you. If you guessed letter “D” you are right.

In fact, the standardized test widely used as a final assessment by college admissions in the United States even endured an identity crisis of sorts; modifying the name four times before settling on (for high school students everywhere) the sleep-depriving abbreviation: SAT. And it’s about to change again. Starting in the fall of 2015, the PSAT — or the preliminary test taken before the SAT— will be markedly different than its current iteration.

And a year after that, the high school class of 2017 will sit down — most likely in a gymnasium at a local high school along the North Shore — and with sharpened No. 2 pencil or on a computer take a redesigned SAT. The planned changes to the SAT — including an optional essay, evidencebased reading and writing, a return to the 1600-point scale, and no penalty for incorrect questions — will offer some challenges for student bodies and faculties.

Asked how this will affect its curriculum, Lake Forest High School Assistant Superintendent Lauren Fagel says, “The landscape of testing and assessment is changing very rapidly. What I always reinforce with teachers is that we need to keep in touch with those changes.

We want to make sure that the kids have access to the information they need so they can be as prepared as possible for these tests.”

In 1990, four years before substantial changes were made to the SAT (including the removal of antonyms, addition of an optional essay, and the use of calculators on the math section) David P. Waldherr fou nde d C a m br id g e

Lake Forest Academy Dean of College Counseling Andrew F. Poska. photography byjoel lerner

Educational Services. The test preparation company is now located in Chicago and partners with more than 4,000 schools, preparing 9th and 10th graders for the SAT and ACT tests.

One of the biggest schools it partners with in the North Shore is New Trier Township High School, which declined to comment on the upcoming test changes for this story.

“In the Midwest, most students take the ACT,” notes Hannah Mueller, ma nag i ng ed it or at Cambridge Educational Services, of the test founded in 1959. “But, especially at New Trier, there will be a number of students who want take the PSAT because results are tied to the National Merit Scholarship.”

The National Merit Scholarship Program — a privately funded, not-forprofit organization headquartered in Evanston — is tied to the College Board, the not-for-profit that owns the SAT and PSAT. But even with 1.5 million entrants each year into this program, it faced a problem; losing ground to the ACT. In 2011, the number of ACT test takers across the country surpassed those who took the SAT for the first time.

David had finally caught up with Goliath.

With relation to the redesigned SAT, “one of the continuing themes has been business,” explains Mueller. “[The College Board] wants to be better than their competitor and increase their market share.”

A bigger issue is the way the current tests stack up when compared against each other. The ACT — or American College Testing

— touts itself as a test that focuses on “practical knowledge rather than cognitive reasoning.” For this reason, the required portion of the ACT (a writing section is optional) includes four multiple-choice subjects broken down into English, mathematics, reading, and science reasoning — a good measure for STEM fields. There is no penalty for marking incorrect answers, so guessing isn’t just allowed; it’s encouraged. (Northeast and Western universities often prefer to receive SAT scores, while Midwest colleges prefer ACT ones.)

Unlike the College Board, which is making radical changes top to bottom on the SAT, ACT, Inc. says its making minor changes, with ACT officials predicting that a student taking the exam this year (under the current system) and next year in 2015 might not even notice a difference.

A Lake Forest Academy official suggests worrying over test changes in general may be overrated.

“Despite what some may think, testing is not more important than a transcript, which is going to be the centerpiece of any application that a student sends,” says Andrew Poska, dean of college counseling at LFA. That said, the faculty encourages its student body to take both tests and offers prep classes each year.

“The bar is a little bit higher in terms of the credentials they need to present to colleges these days, so what the test prep does is give students the time and space to focus on looking at the tests for a little while,” Poska says. ■

What do you need when you call upon a congregation to step up to assist a nonprofit in a short amount of time? According to Anne Faurot, Kenilworth Union Church’s director of children’s ministries, a Flash Drive is in order.

“All too often, if a need is not immediate, the request tends to get lost in the shuffle. So the idea of a Flash Drive could be interesting,” said Faurot.

Kenilworth Union Church will host a special drive in a short amount of time with the goal of collecting diapers to support the Christopher House from Sept. 21-28. Donations of diapers, including Pull Ups training pants, will be accepted at the drop off box at Kenilworth Union Church at 211 Kenilworth Avenue.

For more information, please visit Kenilworth Union Church’s website at www.kuc.org or contact Faurot at (847) 853-2008.

Kilted skydivers, tender pulled pork among draws of Bagpipes & Bonfire

■ by sam eichner Come Sunday, Sept. 28, Lake Forest Open Lands Association — which is dedicated to maintaining scenic trails for quiet walks most of the year — will have kilted skydivers parachuting from the clouds, a massive bonfire, outrageous amounts of tender pulled pork, and the cry from a league of bagpipers wielding their instruments in unison.

“It gives people a chance to get out on the land and appreciate the beauty of all we do to preserve our open spaces here.” | John Sentell Now in its 27th year, Bagpipes & Bonfire has consistently been the North Shore’s most distinct summer send-off. Just east of Elawa Farm at Open Lands’ Middlefork Savannah, the event not only celebrates the preserve’s beauty — but also the surrounding community that’s done so much to ensure it stays that way.

“It’s really a celebration of family,” says Lake Forest Open Lands’ President John Sentell. “And it gives people a chance to get out on the land and appreciate the beauty of all we do to preserve our open spaces here.”

“It’s a thrill to come down here and contribute in the way we do,” says Steve Harrison, who for the better part of the last decade has made the sojourn down to Lake Forest from Canada to conduct the event’s mass bagpipe band, which comprises around 100 members each year.

Harrison has a strong Canadian accent, though at several points it could certainly be interpreted as Scottish — especially as he delves into the spiritual bravado of pipe music. Notes he, “It’s pretty cool to be involved in an event that will have a lasting influence for generations to come.”

A few years after securing Harrison, Lake Forest Open Lands brought owner of ProSky Diving Doug Smith into the mix — evidently in hopes of hiring a handful of his skydivers to leap from a plane in traditional Celtic garb.

“They contacted us and said, ‘We just want to do this one time,’ ” Smith recalls.

The next year — having understandably failed to come up with anything more

The bagpipers are always a hit during the Lake Forest Open Lands event.

exciting than kilted skydivers — they called him up again. Smith and his compatriots have participated in the event ever since.

“It’s such a fun opportunity for us to go in and support such a great cause,” he says.

“And it always blows the crowd away.”

Similar to years past, the approximately 1,700 ticketholders can expect the same enormous bonfire, its flames licking a dusksubdued sky, the same parachute-induced

thrills, and the same access to beer and wine and chicken and donuts that has made the event such a community staple.

This year, a longtime champion of Lake Forest Open Lands, Sue Dixon, will serve as event chair. And the money raised, Sentell says, will go on to support more educational youth programs, as well as several “very robust” restoration initiatives for their six prairies. ■

THEATER REVIEW

“Deathtrap” comes to life on Citadel stage ■ by jill soderberg The reasons why Ira Levin’s 1978 “Deathtrap” was Broadway’s longest-running comic thriller are revealing themselves on the Citadel Theatre stage, where director Pat Murphy and a committed ensemble deliver plenty of laughs, a mindboggling number of plot twists, and suspense at every splendidly perilous turn.

This is a play where nothing is as it seems, and when a character is murdered — the title tells us this is inevitable — the first response is not horror; rather, it’s surprise.

Surprise, and then delight at having been duped.

This production’s success in rendering those shocking

Chuck Quinn, playing the lead role as murder mystery playwright Sidney Bruhl, teams up with Neil Phelps as Clifford, his protegé, in “Deathtrap” at Citadel Theatre.

moments in Levin’s expertly crafted script is a credit to Murphy and his actors, and the gasps from the audience on opening night were audible.

But even before the play begins, theatergoers are primed for intrigue by Eric Luchen’s handsome set: the study of a murder mystery playwright, furnished with tastefully chosen antiques, a fieldstone fireplace (ideal for burning manuscripts), and a wall of weaponry — knives, axes, handcuffs, and such — memorabilia from the writer’s previous plays.

No mere backdrop, the impressive set plays a major role in supplying props essential for the melodramatic mayhem.

Sound designer Patrick O’Brien’s ominous harpsichord, befitting the genre, establishes a tone of mystery as Sidney Bruhl, a once successful playwright whose career is stymied, utters the first word of the play, “Deathtrap.”

That’s the title of a play sent to Sidney by a former seminar student, Clifford Anderson. Sidney’s hit play, “The Murder Game”, has been followed by an 18-year dry spell with a series of box office flops. “Nothing recedes like success,” he quips to his long-suffering wife Myra, whose money is keeping them afloat.

Thus when the financially strapped and desperate-for-ahit Sidney recognizes a sure-fire winner in “Deathtrap,” he muses to his wife that he could kill for a script like that.

When he phones Clifford and learns that there’s only one other copy of the work (this is pre-computer 1978), he invites him over, offering a consultation. The events that follow cannot be revealed here — audiences too are sworn to secrecy — but it is not long before the aforementioned set comes gloriously into play.

As the role requires, Chuck Quinn as Sidney Bruhl is a presence on the stage. Though occasionally a Midwestern accent interferes with his otherwise credible portrayal of

the Connecticut playwright at the center of the action, Quinn is equally adept at the comic as well as the conniving demands of the role. As Clifford, Neil Phelps has a natural demeanor more suited to naïve than sinister, but he provides the necessary stature to make his character’s considerable physical exertion convincing.

“This is a play where nothing is as it seems, and when a character is murdered — the title tells us this is inevitable — the first response is not horror; rather, it’s surprise.”

Elizabeth Rude is Sidney’s supportive wife Myra, while Steve Malone as Sidney’s lawyer is a believable barrister, whose theatricality is revealed in the gleeful frenzy of the final scene. Rounding out the ensemble is Tehilla Newman in the role of the Dutch psychic, Helga ten Dorp, whose clairvoyance is designed to serve the comedy more than the plot. With appropriate exaggeration and an exotic accent (not necessarily Dutch, but who cares?), she dominates the stage. When she moves around Sidney’s study sensing peril, she utters in dire tone and oft repeats, “Pain, pain.”

But her antics bring only pleasure to the audience, who has been happily ensnared in Citadel’s “Deathtrap.”

“Deathtrap” runs through Oct. 5 with performances presented Thursday through Sunday on the Citadel Theatre stage at the west campus of Lake Forest High School, 300 South Waukegan Road. For tickets and information, call 847-735-8554 or visit citadeltheatre.org. ■

WINES OF THE WEEK ■ by johnson ho For more than 2,000 years, the red wines of the Bordeaux region in southwestern France have beguiled the powerful and wealthy of Europe. Julius Caesar introduced them to the Bacchanalias of Rome, the French and British royalty served them at lavish celebration banquets, and the Rothschild dynasties offered them to impress their clients.

Here are some insights into pricing vs. value.

SATURDAY DINNER

2007 Chateau Lafleur, Pomerol, Bordeaux; $690

The ancient clay soil of Pomerol, a tiny hamlet on the northeastern corner of the Bordeaux region, has produced superb Merlot-based wines that possess the supple texture and alluring wealth of blackberry and plum aromas accented by a touch of dark chocolate. The sublime appeal resides in the harmony of the sensual rather than powerful intensity — akin to the ageless charm and beauty of Catherine Deneuve vs. the ephemeral flash of Britney Spears.

Best 8-18 years from vintage, after one hour of decanting and paired with mild meat dishes or dark meat of poultry. The high price is due to the tiny production of this estate and a fiercely loyal clientele.

MIDWEEK MEAL 2006 Chateau Margaux, Margaux district, Medoc region, Bordeaux; $598 This legendary estate has often been referred to as the Queen of Bordeaux for her exquisite finesse and understated opulence.

A blend of the muscular Cabernet Sauvignon and soft fleshy Merlot, Margaux always provides a vibrant vivaciousness of deep black fruit flavors accentuated by a succinct bouquet of rose petals, violets, lavender and cherry blossoms at the finish. The extraordinary length of the aftertaste attests to the concentration of the vinous extracts that yearns for decadent sauces accompanying roasts, steaks, Beef Wellington, rack of lamb or flavorful rib meats.

Best 10-25 years after vintage and 2.5 hours of decanting.

This constitutes a relative bargain find for such a legendary estate. Top vintages frequently command more than twice this price.

BEST VALUE

2006 Blason d’Issan, Margaux district, Medoc region, Bordeaux; $40

An obscure neighbor to Chateau Margaux, Chateau d’Issan represents one of the many “shadow estates” of Bordeaux. Always a fantastic bargain in top years, gems like d’Issan display the lavish generosity of Bordeaux flavors at a small fraction of the prices the big stars charge.

When overshadowed by a “vintage of the century” like 2005, most chateaux (estate) create a “second label” made from barrels that did not qualify for their “Grand Vin” blend. These lighter siblings offer the best options when the dishes are lighter, e.g. veal, pork, poultry, meaty fish (salmon, tuna), or if the budget and long patience are not an option.

Best 6-10 years from vintage, after one hour of decanting.

Q& A

WITH LENNY INNOCENZI

HIGHWOOD BOCCE CLUB PRESIDENT

Restoring the North Shore for 75 Years

The Highwood Bocce Club hosted an exhibition on Sept. 9, featuring a delegation of 12 players from Italy. The headliner was two-time Triple Crown winner Gianluca Formicone, ranked No. 1 in the world. First-year Highwood Bocce Club President Lenny Innocenzi — also the owner of Buffo’s Restaurant in Highwood, since 1977 — paired up with Formicone for a 10-0 victory in one of the morning contests. A jovial, straight-shooting Lake Forest resident and 1971 Highland Park High School graduate, Innocenzi spent time during a busy two-day stretch to offer his thoughts on bocce, serving as president of the Highwood Bocce Club and the most rewarding part of owning a restaurant, among other topics.

Q: What was it like playing alongside the best bocce player in the world?

A: The guy is unbelievable.

Good, good, good, so good. He’s all about strategy … does it all. He’s like a Swiss watch, the way he keeps on ticking, never misses.

He’s got a great personality, a great sense of humor. I never said a word when we played together; I just watched him.

Q: When did your day start at the club on Sept. 9?

A: At 4 a.m. Channel 2 was here early to set up and then do TV interviews for a news show [which aired that day]. In addition to the players from Italy and 12 players who live in Highwood, we had six from Detroit and several from California who played in the exhibition. A club president from Italy and I exchanged flags. The Italian flag is up [on a club wall] now.

Q: What do you remember about the first day you played bocce?

A: I was invited to play in a league, in 1983. Guys said, ‘Come on over to the club and we’ll teach you.’ Well, I learned right away how bad I was. I was told to go back to making pizzas. But then I played every day for a week, determined to do anything I could to get better.

Q: How would you rate yourself as a player today?

A: Decent. I play twice a week, and I practice in the afternoons, especially before a tournament.

Q: How would you describe most bocce folks?

A: Good people, down-to-earth.

I’ve met quite a few people and friends through bocce … people and friends from St. Louis and Detroit and other cities. There’s a social side to bocce; we have a good time when we play.

Q: What does it take to be good at bocce?

A: It’s like lawn bowling … and shuffleboard, but, unlike shuffleboard, the target is always moving

in bocce. Having finesse is important, and so is knowing strategies — thinking about the next throw, figuring out the best tactic to use.

It’s not always about sitting there and having a good time. But the keys to doing well in bocce are the same as they are in other sports: practicing and competing.

Q: Did you play a sport at Highland Park High School?

A: Football. I was a kicker, defensive end, tight end.

Q: What has it been like serving as Highwood Bocce Club P r e sident (si nc e February)?

A: They could impeach me tomorrow [laughter]. … I enjoy it.

[The board] is a great group, a hard-working group. It’s the first year we established committees [8], and we meet once a month.

Membership is up [to 420]. The membership number is the highest it has been in a long time. Our VP, Jack Grandi, is in charge of tournaments at our club and is doing a great job. He works closely with the United States Bocce Association and travels all over.

Q: A ny other n ew initiatives?

A: To host more tournaments — international and national.

We’re going to hold a Presidents’ Dinner [on Oct. 4] at the club. All past presidents of the club will be invited. It will be our way of thanking them for all they did.

Q: What are the courts [four indoor, two outdoor] like at the Highwood Bocce Club?

A: The best in the country; people love them and love playing on them. We upgraded them around 2009; they’re poured-rubber resin courts. Gianluca Formicone said the courts are the best he had ever played on in the U.S. People from all over call us, asking us when they can play here, when we open.

We run men’s and women’s leagues, plus mixed events, and we hosted 11, maybe 12 tournaments on weekends last year. The bocce winter season, it starts right around Nov. 1 and goes through March.

Q: Are young people interested in bocce?

A: That’s tough … not too many.

But I know of about six high school kids — some, they might be in college now. They play in leagues here with their fathers and uncles.

We are trying to put together a Junior League.

Q: The most rewarding part of owning Buffo’s?

A: I love talking to the customers, seeing the kids enjoy their time with their families at the restaurant.

Q: Interests outside of bocce and running a restaurant?

A: I love 1999 [Chevrolet] Tahoes; I’ve owned five of them.

And riding my Harley with my motorcycle club.

Q: Retirement plans?

A: I’ll play bocce forever. I don’t know if I can say the same thing about running the restaurant, but I’ll try. ■ — Bill McLean

Let’s Talk Real Estate

by Jean Wright, President/Broker Owner Crs, GrI

Early lOan QualIfICatIOn Financially speaking, there are a few steps that all parties entering a real estate contract should take to ensure the smoothness of their path from home search and home listing to successful closing. For prospective buyers, these steps are especially crucial to a stress-free transaction. With the help of a certified, skilled REALTOR®, these steps will be easily undertaken and deliver the keys to your dream home! In a temperamental market, many lenders have become hesitant to underwrite loans for large sums of money.

In such instances, pre-qualification for loans has become an essential home buying tool that benefits both the borrower and the lender. By obtaining loan qualification early and securing a mortgage lender, you are able to provide your Realtor® with a very clear idea of your home buying budget. By narrowing your home search to only the homes that are in your price range, you limit the range of your search and focus only on the homes that are smart choices for your finances and long-term goals. This, in turn, leads to an expedited closing, where the buyer and their Realtor® are assured not to run into the unexpected obstacle of being turned down for a loan at the last minute. By securing your loan before beginning your home search, not only do you have a more realistic picture of your financial capability, but you also ensure that your loan will perform as expected over time.

RAGDALE FOUNDATION TOUR Oscar Leon

photography by joel lerner

■ by katie rose mceneely

Oscar Leon is the chef at the Merion, a luxury retirement community in Evanston.

How did you start cooking? I started cooking with my mother — she worked in a cafeteria and she used to take me when I was little.

Years cooking? I’m an executive chef and have been for eight years.

What made you decide to become a professional chef? It’s something that I really liked, from the beginning. I didn’t see myself doing something that I didn’t enjoy or have passion for. I went to St. Augustine College and took cook’s training and then transferred to Cordon Bleu in Chicago, where I finished my culinary degree.

“I have a big background in French food, because I’ve worked in a couple of bistros, but I like pretty much everything: Asian, Italian.” | Oscar Leon Best skill you learned in school?

Baking was the best that I learned — pretty much everything else I was familiar with already, because I was cooking at the same time I went to school.

Signature dish? I have a tenderloin filet

served with potatoes — a croquette potato in the shape of a pear. And I do a trufflebutter sauce — that’s my signature plate at the Merion.

Favorite cuisine to make? I really like to practice everything. I have a big background in French food, because I’ve worked in a couple of bistros, but I like pretty much everything: Asian, Italian. Not one in particular.

What do you like to eat at home? My wife cooks for my kids and I like to share with them —whatever mommy has for them, that’s what I eat.

Worthwhile gadget? A combi-oven — it’s a steamer, a convection oven, or both.

It’s a really, really good tool.

Favorite fruit or vegetable? I grew up in the Caribbean, so papaya, mango, those are my favorites.

Least favorite food: It’s liver. But I do cook it —it’s not my favorite.

Proudest of: When I get a new position and I put everyone together and everybody gets together and respects together — and everybody works as a team. That’s what I’m proud of.

Most memorable kitchen incident?

One day we forgot to set up the pasta machine, so when people started calling orders, nothing was working, there were a lot of people in the kitchen, but no one noticed. That was kind of exciting.

The Merion is located at 1611 Chicago Avenue in Evanston. For more information, visit merionevanston.com or call 847-8646400. ■

THE NORTH SHORE WEEKEND 9/20 – 9/21/14

More than 1,000 poised to celebrate Oktoberfest

Father Steve Lanza may sample a few brews at the beer garden during Sacred Heart Church’s Oktoberfest on Saturday, Sept. 27.

Lanza, the church’s new pastor, may be hardpressed to say any are better than the beers he drank while in Germany at a workshop with clergy and chaplains. Still, he’s excited about the Okotberfest at the Winnetka church because he’s never been to one before — and he’s looking forward to meeting some of the expected 1,000 or more guests.

“I have been to Munich but never during Oktoberfest. The people of Munich do not need an excuse like Oktoberfest to drink beer,” he joked.

“What I remember in Munich was there was an evening at a park when we sat at picnic benches, and there was chicken on sticks on open fires,” he recalled. “They served this beer that was absolutely, incredibly good.”

He later learned the beer was mixed with lemonade.

Rest assured, there will be straight beer at Oktoberfest, said the church’s business manager Michelle Wasielewski.

“We have consulted Father Steve on this very important manner. We will definitely have an Oktoberfest beer, along with bratwurst, sauerkraut, pretzels and other German foods,” she noted.

Kids will have their own beer garden — but it will be root beer, she said.

Sacred Heart’s Oktoberfest began three years ago because the congregation’s former pastor was from Germany.

“We wanted to create a community event,” Wasielewksi said. “And the idea was Okotberfest.

We had no idea in terms of attendance, but the first year we had about 600 and last year 1,000.”

Lanza said he’s looking forward to the huge crowd of people.

“For me, that will be a great opportunity to continue to meet our parishioners and also community members.”

The festivities take place outdoors on Gage and Burr streets in front of Sacred Heart School, 1095 Gage St. at 4 p.m. Mass begins the event, followed by music, food and drink from 5 to 10 p.m.

An authentic “oompah” band, Jimmy’s Bavarians, will perform first followed by Dick Holiday and the Bamboo Gang, which Wasielewski. said “has a huge following.”

All along the street will be kids’ games, an inflatable jump house, face-painting and other activities.

“Anyone can come and listen to the music and

“We wanted to create a community event. And the idea was Okotberfest.” | Michelle Wasielewski enjoy the atmosphere,” Wasielewski said. “We only charge for food and drink and for games. The primary intent is community building. As demonstrated by significant attendance last year, we certainly are achieving our goal of bringing out our Sacred Heart families and neighbors.”

Proceeds from the event support the parish’s ministry and outreach programs. For more information, visit www.sacredheartwinnetka.com. ■

THE NORTH SHORE WEEKEND

The finished lower level of the home boasts billiards and a family pub..

■ by simon murray A blueprint is useful for imagining what a project will look like once it’s completed. But it can only show so much.

“It’s nice to go from so many months of seeing something just on paper to it coming to life,” says Andrea Moreland who, along with her husband Ray, had embarked on a maiden voyage four years ago: custom home design.

If you were to look at the property today, nestled on over two acres of woodland, you would have trouble imagining how it looked in 2010. Instead of an immaculate backyard and a European-influenced home, there was nothing but dirt.

“We love the French oak floors, the white kitchen with its marble counter tops, the beams, the outside stone in the interior of the all season room.” | Andrea Moreland Orren Pickell, founder of his eponymous building group, was the builder hired to nurture their vision and bring it to life.

“I’m sure they looked — like many of our clients do — up and down, looking for a good value someplace; a good piece of property and a house on it that suited them, and they just couldn’t find it,” says Pickell.

Coming from Northbrook, the Morelands noted they went up and down the North Shore, visiting close to 50 homes. Most came down to the design: they couldn’t envision living with the homes they viewed for the long-term, especially with two young kids.

“After awhile,” explains Ray, “you go through all of these houses and you realize what you do like.” It was with a similar thought that inspiration struck — they would build instead of purchase.

The Morelands settled on Pickell’s Tarns of the Moor in Bannockburn, a 15-acre enclave of plots. Tarns, which mean “little lakes,” is a nod to Pickell’s Scottish heritage and the Village of Bannockburn, which was designed to imitate country living in the auld land.

This modern-day nouveau residence contains elements of rustic, Old World charm — such as the barn beams in the kitchen — with a “European style that goes back centuries,” says Pickell. While the vision was all the Morelands, the Pickell team offered ideas and touches that could be added to the project.

“We love the French oak floors, the white kitchen with its marble counter tops, the beams, the outside stone in the interior of the all season room,” says Andrea. “They let you be creative and have freedom but they’re also good about throwing ideas at you.”

One such idea was the second-story sleeper porch. A necessity a century ago for the sick or a retreat for the sickly, the Moreland’s one merely offers a pleasant space to relax and look out on the front yard.

Pickell — whose company next year will celebrate its 40th year in business — has been through it all: remodeling and building over 800 homes. After weathering the financial downturn and real estate recession, he says he’s finally starting to see investment in the home again, at almost three times the pace it was in 2009.

“People are working as hard — or harder — than they ever have,” says Pickell. “This is how they reward themselves.” ■

Connelly & Co. — blessed with a bevy of No. 1's — putting together a show-stopping season

Sand-sational: New Trier senior Will Connelly is having a blast this fall. The Trevians have claimed team titles at six invites.

■ by bill mclean

sports@northsoreweekend.com Among the traditions of the New Trier boys golf program is the gentle roasting of seniors — via speeches given by underclassmen — at the team banquet after each season.

Will Connelly, a sophomore in 2012, chose to speak about Ian Wright, then a Trevians senior co-captain. As Connelly stood to address a rapt audience of players, coaches and players’ parents, at least one of the audience members feared Connelly would double-bogey the oration.

“I thought, ‘Uh-oh, this probably won’t go well,’ ” New Trier JV boys golf coach Eric Duffett recalls. “Will was the quietest kid, a kid who laughed at others’ jokes, a kid who didn’t feel very comfortable expressing his personality.

“But you should have heard him that night,” he adds. “He blew the roof off with his speech. His delivery was great, and he told fantastic jokes with a sense of humor that was appropriate for the setting.”

Two seasons later, on stages featuring fairways and flagsticks, Connelly, now a senior tri-captain, lets his clubs do a lot of the talking for him.

Their collective delivery around golf courses: show-stopping good.

As a member of an undefeated, stacked lineup that boasts more than a few No. 1-caliber golfers this fall, Connelly is grateful to be surrounded by teammates capable of shooting par or under-par in duals or at invites.

“It’s been fun, absolutely fun,” says Connelly, New Trier’s No. 2 scorer (7678, 21st-place tie) for the Class 3A state runner-up team last fall. “When everybody

is pretty much No. 1, it takes pressure off all of us. No single guy carries our team … everybody relies on every teammate.”

Connelly earned medalist honors at the Deerfield Invite at Twin Orchard Country Club in Long Grove on Sept. 6, shooting a par-70 to edge junior teammate and runner-up Matt Murlick (71), who also finished second (72) at the Fremd Inverness Invite on Sept. 8.

New Trier senior tri-captain Jack Junge (35) and junior Andrew Huber (36) finished 1-2 at the nine-hole Woodstock Invite on Aug. 21; Trevians junior Nick Iserloth fired a medalist round of 68 at the Raider Classic in Bloomington on Aug. 20 and needed only a meet-low 33 strokes to tour half of the Winnetka Park District Golf Course in a dual with Highland Park eight days later; and NT junior Ethan Schmitt contributed a medalist effort of 35 in a home dual with

Evanston on Sept. 11.

Senior tri-captain Will Seaman won the Central Suburban League South Meet in 2012.

One program, lots of aces.

“Our coach [Pete Drevline] says we’re a 50-people-deep program,” says Junge, the 2012 Class 3A state champion. “Knowing that motivates all of us whenever we compete.

“Our depth is incredible.”

Connelly’s most laudable round to date: his 4-under 67 at Winnetka PDGC in an invite last fall. He eagled the first hole.

“Will is not a real emotional player,” Drevline says. “But that day, after his round, he gave a fist pump with a big crowd watching him. That was nice to see.”

Connelly got his first taste of varsity golf at the end of his sophomore season.

The promotion allowed him to travel to the Class 3A state meet in Bloomington, where Drevline deployed Connelly in his Day Two lineup. But rain scrubbed that day’s action.

Last fall Connelly established himself as a steady varsity force from start (August) to finish (October). He went birdie-parbirdie on the final three holes of his Friday round at state.

“Will,” Drevline says, “is a very good two-way player — he can overpower a course and dissect one. He’s a power surgeon. Another one of his strengths is how even-keeled is; he has the same demeanor out there, whether he bogeys a hole or birdies a hole.”

Connelly’s older brother, Sam, didn’t get a chance to play a hole his junior year at New Trier. Sam Connelly, now a junior at George Washington University, got cut after tryouts in August of 2010.

But he made the team the next year, a feat that still impresses Will Connelly.

“That doesn’t happen often,” says Will, who is leaning toward not play collegiate golf. “Sam got me interested in golf, and so did my father [Peter]. I’ve always looked up to my brother … looked at him as an inspiration. There was a summer when he worked hard on his game and shaved nearly 20 strokes [100 to 83] in a short period of time.”

Folks are still talking about the time a reticent Will Connelly transformed himself into a crowd-pleasing, highly engaging teen at a banquet two years ago.

The shy guy had become a stand-up comic guy right before all kinds of eyes.

“I spent a lot of time preparing for that speech,” Connelly says. “I worked on it with my dad, who has a good sense of humor. I was quiet, young. Everybody wasn’t expecting much.”

Junge knows exactly what he’ll get when he watches Connelly attack a golf course.

Or when he simply converses with his talented teammate outside the ropes.

“I’ve played golf with Will so many times this fall,” Junge says. “I know his swing pretty well. He likes to swing aggressively, hit the ball far. When he’s on, he also hits it really straight. That’s a great combination to have. “[Off the course],” Junge adds, “Will is a great kid, one of the nicest kids, a great guy to talk with about anything.”

Notable: How deep is New Trier’s boys golf program? This deep: It won the fiveteam Highland Park varsity invite at Sunset Valley Golf Course by one stroke on Sept. 13 — with a crew of JVers. Senior Brett Golden and sophomore Michael Adler shot 76s. NT senior David Perl carded an 81. The Trevians now have won six varsity invites. ■

New Trier’s Hauser is hard to miss on ‘Miss Mac’ night ■ by bill mclean

made me come in the next morning, at 7 a.m., and run a timed mile. Miss Mac was there, too; that’s how dedicated she was.

“She was great,” he added, “because she wanted all of her students to set high standards for themselves. She knew I had run a six-minute mile, so she wanted me to go faster than that on that morning.

“I think I ran a 6:03.”

Niles North’s football team ran for only six yards all night against NT (3-0) last weekend after averaging 48.5 points in its first two games. The Vikings (2-1) did accumulate 170 passing yards, including 55 on their lone TD with 29.7 seconds left in the first half.

Trevians senior linebacker Tim Fox also stood out defensively for the hosts, entering Niles North’s backfield seemingly every other play and knocking down an Anthony Granato pass on a third-and-10 in third quarter.

The pass disruption occurred two plays after Fox and Hauser combined for a sack.

“Awesome player,” Hauser said of the 6-4, 190-pound Fox. The play of the first half was an usual one. Granato, positioned to receive a

sports@northsoreweekend.com On a night when New Trier honored alleverything Jane “Miss Mac” McNamara — a teacher, coach, adviser, mentor, guide and friend during her 48 years at the school — Trevians senior Andrew Hauser showed his incalculable worth and versatility on a football field.

The 6-foot-4, 230-pound tight end/defensive end caught an 11-yard touchdown pass, blocked a 38-yard field-goal try and made several tackles for loss or no gain in NT’s 34-6 defeat of visiting Niles North in soggy Northfield on Sept. 12.

Mr. Hauser also displayed his humility after the Trevians’ third win in as many weekends.

“I am by no means the best player on the team,” he said. “All I try to do each week is be consistent.”

What McNamara has been in the New Trier community for 2,496 weeks (and counting) since 1966: a constant.

“She was my PE teacher,” recalled New Trier first-year coach Brian Doll, a 1995 NTHS graduate. “I missed a class, and she

shotgun snap in the third quarter, appeared to have no idea the snapped ball had flown over his helmet and landed near midfield. By the time he did, New Trier senior Michael Pruchnicki was well on his way to recovering the loose ball 22 yards behind the line of scrimmage.

Trevians sophomore quarterback Clay Czyzynski (6-of-17, 119 yards, 2 TDs) didn’t waste any time capitalizing, hitting senior wideout Michael Miller for a 39-yard TD connection on the first play after the turnover.

The tally upped NT’s lead to 20-0 at the 4:26 mark of the second quarter.

Czyzynski and NT senior running back Caleb Roth each scored earlier on 1-yard TD runs. Senior backup quarterback Will McCain capped the scoring with a 1-yard sneak of his own at 5:50 of the fourth quarter. Trevians senior running back Kevin Mulhern ran hard all night, totaling 133 yards on 18 carries.

But the night belonged to McNamara, who joined dozens of well-wishers near midfield at halftime for the recognition of her career, including the year (1976) in which she guided New Trier West’s 14-2 field

hockey team to the state championship.

“You truly are a New Trier icon and treasure,” the PA Announcer said to Miss Mac in front of an appreciative crowd.

A grateful, smiling McNamara bowed to the rain-soaked fans in the home bleachers and later greeted countless former and current students with high fives and hugs.

New Trier travels to Deerfield (1-2) Sept.

19 for the first of three straight road games.

Notable: NT has already played half of its four home games this fall. The Trevians’ homecoming game vs. Evanston Oct. 24 is also the finale of their regular season. …

Doll, on Hauser’s Division I prospects: “He’s a sleeper. With his size and frame, I can see him walking on somewhere. And he could play tight end, outside linebacker or defensive end.” … Trevians sophomore defensive back Francis Fay picked off a pass in the second quarter, and senior lineman Steve Salinas recovered a fourth-quarter fumble against Niles North. … Miller (2 receptions, 52 yards) finished as NT’s leading receiver in the Central Suburban League crossover. ■

With Kevin Reiterman & Bill McLean Twitter: NorthShore Sports @tnswsports ROAMING THE SIDELINES FOOTBALL

Lake Forest: Kyle Gattari is proving to be quite a weapon.

The senior placekicker kicked three field goals and added four PAT kicks to finish with 13 points in the Scouts’ 37-14 win at Wauconda on Sept. 12.

Gattari opened LF’s scoring, when he drilled a 23-yarder in the first quarter. He connected on a 32-yarder in the second quarter and then added another 23-yarder in the fourth quarter.

In helping the Scouts to improve to 3-0, he is 16 for 16 on extra points.

Jack Traynor and Wes Janeck also turned in starring roles. Traynor not only led the team with 12 tackles, including a 16-yard quarterback sack, but the senior inside linebacker also scored a touchdown on a 25-yard interception return in the second quarter.

Janeck, meanwhile, rushed for 100 yards for the second game in a row. Against Wauconda, the senior hit the century mark on the dot on 18 carries. He had two rushing TDs, including an 18-yarder in the second period. He has scored seven times in the three games.

Junior Quinn Julian (10 carries, 53 yards) scored LF’s other TD on a 4-yard run in the first quarter.

The Scouts will have on another road game on Sept. 19, when they travel to Stevenson (3-0) in an NSC Lake opener. The Patriots are ranked No. 1 in the state by most area media outlets.

Loyola: Senior linebacker Mark Nichol turned in a spotlight performance in a losing cause.

Despite some big plays by Nichol, the Ramblers dropped their first game of the season to host Brother Rice 16-13 on Sept. 12.

LA’s defense was stout for most of the night,

allowing only 117 yards. Nichol came up with three tackles for loss, including two quarterback sacks.

Defensive end Brock Hardwick also had a sack, while defensive back Mark Dowdle had an interception.

LA (2-1) came up with the game’s first score — a 3-yard run by Dara Laja with 2:12 left in the first quarter. The Ramblers’ other TD didn’t come until 3:35 remaining in regulation, when quarterback DJ Melsheimer (11-21-1, 159 yards) tossed a 17-yard strike to Spencer Cecola (5-58).

Owen Buscaglia was the game’s top receiver: 6 catches, 94 yards.

The Ramblers, who will host Fenwick (2-1) at 1:30 p.m., turned the ball over four times.

STICK NATION FIELD HOCKEY

Lake Forest: Kerry Lawler and Hannah Metzger shared the shutout as the Scouts improved to 3-1 with a 6-0 victory over visiting Deerfield on Sept. 8.

Sasha Carney (2 goals) and Paige LeClerq (2 assists) led the offense. The other goal scorers were Camille Cook, Emma DeNoble, Katelyn Lochiatto and Kelly Nolan. Nolan, Mary Alice Arnstein, Lindsey Close and Grace Payne had the other assists.

Loyola: Jane Totaro tallied two goals as the Ramblers (5-0) took care of Glenbrook South 3-0 on Sept. 9. Laura Mahoney had the team’s other goal.

New Trier: Kitty Kenyon came up with a hat trick in NT’s 6-0 win over Deerfield on Sept.

10. The other offensive standout was Lindsay Hackett: 1 goal, 3 assists.

Rachel Mirkin helped the Trevians’ cause with one goal and one assist. Maggie Lake added

a goal, while Emily Carothers had an assist.

CHIP SHOTS BOYS GOLF

Patriot Day Invite: This six-team tourney, which was held at Sunset Valley on Sept. 13, had two storylines.

First, guys named Noah stood out. Highland Park juniors Noah Apter and Noah Fishbein shot 73s to share medalist honors.

And then, there’s that loaded squad at New Trier. With their top players not competing, the Trevians put their tremendous depth on display by scoring a 318 and edging host HP (319) and Lake Forest (320) for the team title. Michael Adler and Brett Golden shot 76s. David Perl added an 81.

LF was led by third-place finisher Mac Montagne (75), Quinn Gaughan (79) and Jack Garrity (80).

Highland Park: Noah Apter (38), Chase Nathan (39), Noah Fishbein (40) and Ari Herzog (40) led the Giants to a 157-215 victory over Niles North on Sept. 11.

On Sept. 9, HP topped Maine West 161-178 behind the scoring of Apter (36), Fishbein (41), Nathan (42) and Ben Udell (42).

Lake Forest: Jack Garrity and Quinn Gaughan shot match-best 37s to carry the Scouts to a 156-169 win over Warren on Sept. 11.

On Sept. 10, in a three-team meet at Hawthorn Woods, Alex Georges (39) and Elliott Georges (40) led LF (161) to a pair of wins over Libertyville (168) and Lake Zurich (170).

Garrity, Gaughan and Sean Casey had 41s.

On Sept. 8, the Scouts dropped a 155-159 score to Stevenson. Garrity, Chris Munson and Ale Raganelli shot 38s. Alex Georges added a 40.

D

Loyola/NSCD: Highlighted by Sam Reategui’s even par 37, North Shore Country Day defeated Loyola by six strokes on Sept. 11 at Twin Orchard Country Club. The Ramblers received 41s from Andrew Hovanec, Billy Boesen and Naman Shah.

NSCD also got good news from the IHSA. Junior transfer Charlie Mac Vicar is now eligible to compete for the Raiders.

New Trier: Ethan Schmitt earned medalist honors for Trevians in their 146-165 win over Evanston on Sept. 11.

On Sept. 9, Will Seaman and Andrew Huber shot 35s to share medalist honors in NT’s 144154 win over Glenbrook South.

GIRLS GOLF

St. Viator Invite: Led by medalist Margaret Hickey (75), Loyola captured top honors at the St. Viator Invite on Sept. 13 with a score of 317.

LA’s other scorers were Nina Rutkowski (78), Colleen Huffman (80) and Nicole Wetoska (84).

The Ramblers also won a couple of duals last week. Rutkowski took first (39) in a 171-200 win over St. Ignatius on Sept. 8. And, on Sept. 11, Blake Yaccino was the medalist in a 171-178 win over Glenbrook North.

Prospect Knights Invite: New Trier senior Becca Lindblad put together a stellar performance to take medalist honors (34) at this sixmeet tourney at The Bridges of Poplar Creek on Sept. 9. Louis McCulloch shared runner-up honors (37) as the Trevians compiled a 153 to win the meet by nine strokes over Prospect and Maine South. Lauren Holly, Louis Suh and Rayno Kwo shot 41s.

HP's Greenberg emerges with banner night ■ by kevin reiterman

sports@northsoreweekend.com Cole Greenberg, who wears snazzy blue high tops, no longer is one of the hidden gems on the Highland Park High School football team.

Three games into the season, and this little known running back has emerged into a polished performer.

“This,” said Highland Park head coach Hal Chiodo, “is what we thought we had in Cole.”

The senior sparkled on Sept. 12.

In his team’s 24-7 signature win at Evanston, Greenberg left his tracks all over the field, rushing for a career-high 162 yards.

At 5-foot-8, 175 pounds, Greenberg has the uncanny ability to turn nothing into … 10-, 13-, 14-, 16- and 22-yard gains.

He constantly found the escape hatch against the befuddled Wildkits.

“Sometimes,” Chiodo said, “when he has the ball, you wonder where he’s going with it. But he always seems to find a way.

“It’s his vision,” the coach added.

“He’s got great vision.”

“That,” said Greenberg, “comes naturally for me. I know how to read holes.”

Last fall, Greenberg displayed his playmaking skills mostly at wide receiver. He caught 24 passes for 305 yards. He had a team-best 128 YAC (yards after catch) yards.

“We switched him from running back to receiver last year, because we didn’t know if he would hold up for a whole season at running back,” said Chiodo. “He spent the whole offseason in the weight room.”

For Greenberg, who is averaging 113.6 yards per game for the 3-0 Giants, there’s nothing better than being the team’s load back.

“I love having the ball in my hands,” he said. “I love having my teammates depend on me.”

And, one of the best things about winning a Friday night football game — especially against a tough foe like Evanston on the road — is crossing paths with your head coach in a school hallway on the following Monday.

“I’ll see coach Chiodo, and he’ll have that grin on his face,” said Greenberg. “Then, he’ll say, ‘Hey, brother,’ in that Southern accent.”

Good things are happening for the Giants in the Midwest, and they’re happy to grin and believe it.

“Beating a team like Evanston gives us an injection of confidence,” said Chiodo.

There’s also been an infusion of enthusiasm. And having a strong running game has been one of the key elements to HP’s early success.

“There’s so many times in a season, when you need to be able to run the ball,” said Chiodo. “And [Sept. 12] was one of them. We were able to keep the ball away from [Evanston].”

Holes at the line of scrimmage are being opened. HP starts two seniors — right tackle Charlie Quirk and right guard James Hermann — and three juniors — center Tucker Thompson, left tackle Adam Danzig and left tackle Gabe Guzman — on the offensive line.

And Greenberg also is benefitting from HP’s balanced attack.

Senior quarterback Sam Nevers is off to a fine start, and he’s got a stable of reliable receivers in Luke Norcia, Jack McGuire, Hallvard

Lundevall, Tommy Rudman, Cristian Volpentesta and Aaron Brown.

Nevers, who has 444 passing yards this fall, came up with a pair of TD tosses against Evanston: a 24-yarder to Lundevall on the opening series and a 1-yarder to Norcia early in the fourth quarter.

It was Lundevall’s second TD grab of the season.

But the best catch of the night belonged to Brown: a full-out diving 19-yard grab at the end of the third quarter.

“A fabulous catch,” said Chiodo.

“They [wide receivers] call themselves the ‘Hands Squad,’ ” said Greenberg. “It’s a little cheesy. But they’re a great [unit]. Teams have to respect their skills. And all of them have improved their blocking skills.”

Greenberg remains an option in the passing game. In the win over Mundelein in Week Two, he threw a 75-yard touchdown pass to McGuire on a halfback-option play.

“My inner Johnny Manziel came out on that play,” said No. 5, referring to the Cleveland Browns’ No. 2 — and No. 2-jersey wearing — quarterback.

Notable: Brown and Volpentesta led the Giants in tackles (10), while Jason Shulruff (2 sacks), Arrie skin tightening Mitchell (2 sacks, fumble recovery) and Teddy Sutker wrinkle (fumble reductionrecovery) came up game-changing sunwith damage reversal plays. skin texture rejuvenation What can Brown do … for HP? Brown, who sat out last season with a knee injury, was here, there and everywhere on defense — especially in the second half.

“No one loves the game of football more than Aaron,” said Chiodo. “He’s getting better every day. And I feel good about that.” ■

Time for a renovation?

No, not the house.

HE’S A COLOSSAL SUCCESS Old-school Moore is a huge presence on defense for LF’s soccer team

Lake Forest High School’s Hunter Moore (right) battles Highland Park’s Aidan Subra for possession during earlier action this fall. photography

■ by bill mclean

sports@northsoreweekend.com Lake Forest High School senior Hunter Moore did not receive a yellow card for doing a wonderful job of impersonating a middle linebacker on a soccer pitch last weekend.

But nobody would have faulted Buffalo Grove High School’s visiting Bison for at least lobbying for one on Sept. 13.

“He’s a colossus back there, physically imposing,” Scouts soccer coach Rob Parry said after Moore — a sturdy 6-foot, 180-pound all-North Suburban Conference pick last fall — played all 80 minutes in a 2-2 stalemate. “Hunter holds us together back there.

“I haven’t seen a better defender this year.”

Parry had to see Moore roam and distribute the ball from the midfield as well, because LF was shorthanded against BG. At times it looked like the center-back had been born to play there, too.

Moore, stationed a few feet in front of Scouts senior goalkeeper Brogan O’Connor, put his helmet of curly-brown hair to good use early, popping straight up to clear a BG corner kick out of harm’s way.

Later, after a Bison forward had darted behind him, Moore caught up to the foe and booted the ball upfield.

Near the end of the first half he displayed his touch after battling for control of the ball near midfield, smoothly tapping a right-on pass to speedy senior forward Paul Passalino.

“He’s one of our leaders, definitely,” Lake Forest senior

midfielder Brian Roper said. “Hunter gets us focused at practices, and you can always count on him back there.

He’s a big kid who gets a lot of momentum going with his size, and when that’s going …”

Look out.

Moore’s physicality plus his will to secure 50/50 balls usually equals resignation from an opposing player.

A soccer player since the age of 7, Moore chose not play the world’s most popular sport his freshman year. He suited up for football in the fall and lacrosse in the spring.

“It was hard for me to give it up that year,” admitted Moore, who still plays lax and earned all-NSC honors (honorable mention) as a defenseman last spring. “I soon realized, when I played soccer again my sophomore year, how much I loved it, how much I missed it. It’s a great sport, and there’s nothing better than the thrill of your team scoring a goal.”

His Scouts (4-5-1) got blanked in the first half of the match against BG on Sept. 13. But the hosts showed plenty of verve after the break, making up a 2-0 deficit on goals from senior midfielder Clarke Hough and Keegan Kullby (PK).

“We played with a lot of energy [in the second half,],” Moore said. “It had been building.”

His distinctive head of hair — think Greg Brady’s curly mane in “The Brady Bunch” TV series, the latter years — is two stories high.

And counting.

“I’m old-school,” said a smiling Moore, who pulled back some of his locks to reveal a thin Scouts-blue flow band.

by joel lerner

“My hair used to be straight.”

His personality?

“As bubbly as his hair,” Parry said.

“You know what?” Parry added, turning serious. “Hunter is an inspirational leader whose teammates respect him and his abilities as a player.”

Moore is thinking seriously about playing soccer and lacrosse in college, perhaps at a Division III school. But that’s down-the-road stuff.

His mind now is on academics, soccer, Call of Duty (video game) battles and his fantasy football team.

“He’s a lot of fun to be around, even in a classroom,” Roper said. “Hunter likes to sit in the back of a classroom.”

Teachers, though, have never had to give Moore a yellow card for acting up in the middle of a lecture.

“Our teachers are great, very helpful,” Moore said. “I’m getting a great education.

“I like balance in my life. I try hard in school, play sports and never forget the importance of friends.”

Notable: Kullby delivered the assist via a free kick on Hough’s goal against BG on Sept. 13. O’Connor (first half) and junior Wil Audley (second half, 0 goals allowed) split the goalkeeper duties in the 2-2 tie. O’Connor made a sensational save at 24:05, diving to his right for a onehanded deflection. … Passalino drew the foul that set up Kullby’s second-half PK. … LF lost 2-0 to Lake Zurich on Sept. 8 and 2-1 to Libertyville three days later. Scouts junior midfielder Matthew Mick, on a Passalino assist, tallied the goal against the Wildcats. ■

STELLAR PROPELLER Race savvy — and powerful dolphin kick — puts Loyola’s Jardeleza among state’s elite

■ by bill mclean

sports@northsoreweekend.com Weeks after her little brother, Luke, was born in 2011, Loyola Academy swimmer Maria “Libby” Jardeleza must have felt like a wide-eyed, open-mouthed, speechless tot at the state meet.

She was a freshman then, all caught up in the deafening din amid the number of older, taller people on deck and older, taller people in the stands.

But the Evanston resident didn’t cry her beggogled eyes out, like an intimidated infant might have.

Jardeleza had work to do, laps to complete, wall turns to nail, splits to reduce.

“That meet was crazy, insane, so loud,” recalls Jardeleza, now a record-setting senior at Loyola Academy and the reigning state runner-up in the 100-yard backstroke. “At times it was hard for me to focus.

“I kept looking up at the spectators.”

Luke turns 3 in November and is Libby’s best friend. Libby and her older sister, University of Pennsylvania sophomore Maddie Jardeleza (LA, Class of 2013), rushed excitedly to a hospital after a Ramblers swim practice to greet their sibling on the day he was born.

Li’l Luke got his li’l feet wet as a swimming spectator by attending his very first meet — at a sectional held at Glenbrook South — later that month. The sisters made their fresh sib proud in Glenview, earning two state berths apiece in individual races.

Both also swam for the fifthplace 200 medley relay at the state meet the following weekend.

“Libby handled that weekend at the state meet like a pro, swimming as well as she did on a relay with older girls,” Ramblers coach Mike Hengelmann says, referring to then-senior Michelle Garland,

then-junior Evan Swenson and Libby’s big sister.

“She’s intelligent and a very good student,” he adds. “That carries over to swimming, where she always prepares well for races.

Libby certainly knows how to attack a race.”

Last fall Jardeleza, who touched fifth in the 100 butterfly at state to go with her silver-medal effort in the 100 back, sped to two individual LA school records (54.71 in the 100 back, 56.3 in the 100 fly) and was the swift butterfly leg of the Ramblers’ program-best 1:45.04 in the 200 medley relay (fourth place at state, with current juniors Claire Voss and Maria Kyle and current sophomore Olivia Andrew).

“I love to race, always have,” says Jardeleza, who helped Loyola Academy (3-0 in duals) capture the Lyons Township Relays championship on Sept. 13. “I’m comfortable in the water, and I love racing against certain people [including Rosary junior Annie Gosselin, eighth in the 100 back at the 2013 state meet].

“My sister loves the sport of swimming, the process of swimming. I’m more into the racing aspect of the sport than she is.”

Maddie Jardeleza swims at Penn, and she’s been recruiting her little sister. Hard.

“She’s told me, ‘It’s the best swim team ever; you have to come here,’ ” says Libby, who plans to visit the Ivy League school this month before also checking out Yale and the University of North Carolina.

Any college swim program would welcome Jardeleza with open fins.

She’s the daughter of a former collegiate swimmer (Beth, a butterflyer during her years at Loyola University-Maryland), and her dolphin kick is the envy of Flippers everywhere.

Jardeleza’s former club coach, Rick Peterson, always stresses how crucial an effective underwater kick is to an elite swimmer’s

repertoire. Jardeleza generates most of her power from the series of undulations.

“Libby’s kick underwater … it’s amazing to watch,” says Loyola Academy senior Sophia Funck, a breaststroker and 200 IMer. “You look at that and you think, ‘That dolphin kick must have taken years of hard work to develop, years of practice and intense training.’ She’s also got so much competitive energy and definite leadership qualities. But Libby is also a down-to-earth person who isn’t self-centered and whose goals are team-oriented … always team-oriented.”

Where Jardeleza, a captain, is listed in a Hengelmann lineup means nothing to her. If the swim coach ever asks her to fill in for an injured diver at a JV meet scheduled for the next day, Jardeleza would likely say, “Sure, but I’m going to need to work with a diving coach for at least six hours to give myself the best chance to help the team.”

“Libby,” Hengelmann says, “is willing to do anything for the team. If I had to define her, I’d use ‘team-first girl’ in my definition. She’d never wonder about the reasons behind lineup decisions, and she’d swim any event for us, no questions asked.”

There’s little doubt Luke Jardeleza will want to emulate his big sisters in pools or other bodies of water as soon as he graduates from tyke-hood. He’s about as afraid of the water as a fish is.

And Beth Jardeleza has told Libby that Luke is a lot like Libby.

“Luke,” Libby says, “likes swimming … he jumps right into the water. It’s real cool being around him and all of his energy.
