When a hack writer (and golfer) gets hacked

T

hough I may not have scoffed at the idea of cybersecurity since the Internet became ubiquitous, I certainly gave it little thought. A colleague or two had complained about identity theft over the years, and recently my wife Tricia asked for $2,000 via e-mail to get her out of the Philippines when she was ensconced at home, a hacker scam I’ve received before (along with the forlorn African prince in need of cash).

But since I had been online since the 1990s, nothing egregious had happened to any of my accounts.

That changed drastically late last month. It was a typical Tuesday — edit stories, check proofs, make deadline for the newspapers — when I checked my personal e-mail account.

There looked to be a number of e-mails between me and my bank representatives. I opened them and read parts of them. My initial reaction was: Could I have written these this morning and already forgotten about them? Was the loony bin my destination that night?

Then one line jolted me. “I will be making a capital Withdrawal of $41,300 from my account to my account in Europe,” it was written. The note even ended with a “Thanks, David” — just an everyday $41,300 money transfer to Europe by me.

An attached form was e-mailed back — and the hacker filled it out with precision, even nailing my

checking account number.

I called a bank representative, and there was a bit of understandable confusion on the other end as create a fresh look with the John robshaw linen and furniture collection.

I had to explain I had never written those e-mails from an hour or so before. He then explained a verbal confirmation was needed for any transfer of that manner, and no money was lost. Though that was great news, the hacker had also sent perhaps hundreds of bulk e-mails — many to people I hadn’t chicago hinsdale lake forest winnetka corresponded with in years — asking them to open 773 404 2020 630 655 0497 847 295 8370 847 441 0969 a Google doc that would have caused some havoc shopbedside.com on their end.

8 | news Rodeo Drive in Deerfield? Tria makes its move ■ by simon murray

Deerfield Square, a collection of red brick storefronts placed in a row like oblong children’s blocks, is thousands of miles — and dollars —away from Worth Avenue or Rodeo Drive.

But try telling that to the nouveau patrons of Tria.

“So many people have come in and said, ‘It’s so beautiful, we feel like it belongs on Rodeo Drive.’ And that’s what we want,” says Tria’s co-owner, Jody Strauss-Figura.

In fact it could be — or Fifth Avenue or Avenue Montaigne, for that matter. The interior space —sleek white furniture, white floral décor — is dominated by two crystal chandeliers that hang from the focal point like earrings from an earlobe. They not so subtly hint at the boutique’s wares; the high holy trinity of accessories: shoes, handbags, and, of course, jewelry.

Tria is also a play on three, says co-owner Tony Patel.

An ex-Londoner, Patel began his foray into fashion working at Bally Footwear before moving to the United States.

“There are two of us that our partners, but we have an integral store manager so there are really three of us in essence,” he said.

The trio (David Sugg, the store manager, rounds out the third spot) boasts more than 60 years of combined experience — most of it working alongside each other at the family-owned, high-end shoe boutique Shirise in Glencoe. Patel had been with Shirise for 20 years, Sugg close to 15, and Strauss-Figura about 10 (after previously working as the store manager of Joan & David in Northbrook Court and an Escada specialist at Neiman Marcus) when they decided to forge their own path.

“We just thought, we knew our customers well enough, time to move on and start something on our own,” says Strauss-Figura.

A month after Tria opened its doors for a private “soft” opening on Feb. 28 — where 300 women attended — Shirise closed its doors.

Ambitiously, the owners say their target customer is every woman on the North Shore. These women represent

old patrons familiar with their service and new customers looking for, as Patel puts it, “different [designer] names they can’t get in the area.” Names like Laurence Dacade, Rupert Sanderson, Jason Wu, Henry Beguelin, and Santoni.

Says Patel of Santoni, which derives from a men’s line: “They really concentrate on the fit and the quality. It’s going to be huge in America.”

Tria also carries the familiar as well: Pedro Garcia, Giorgio Armani, Attilio Giusti Leombruni.

“It’s a mix of things they’re used to seeing as well as introducing new, established, and young designers,” says Strauss-Figura.

When pressed to reveal who of the three is responsible for bringing in the different designers, she notes, while it is a collaboration of buying trips to Las Vegas and New York City, the difference between the two co-owners is categorized with a smile and a laugh. “I’m more classic, he’s more edgy.” ■

The Northfield Township Road District provides a recycling program for the villages of Glenview and Northbrook to promote recycling and the disposal of household products.

Recently the facility, located at 1928 Lehigh Avenue in Glenview, has experienced the discarding of unacceptable recyclable materials during its off-hours. When this occurs, the township will write tickets and fine any individuals caught leaving materials when the building is closed.

For a complete list of recyclable materials, please call (847) 724-7055.

The Village manages a parkway treeplanting program. Each year, as unhealthy or dead trees are removed, new trees are planted along public parkways. More than 130 varieties of trees were planted this spring. The Glenview Public Works Department is scheduled to plant another 430 this fall.

Each planting season, the Village adds a few select trial trees to help diversify the tree population, which helps control the spread of disease.

THe North shore weekend | glenview, northbrook, deerfield | 9/13 – 9/14/14

ManorCare specializes in host of medical areas ■ by simon murray When Pauline Mintz’s grandmother fell and fractured her shoulder, the family was concerned. Was it safe for her to be alone in her condominium, they wondered?

She rehabbed for less than 30 days before Mintz and her family decided “she was not safe to return home by herself,” says Mintz.

Though her shoulder was strong, she was starting to display early warning signs of Alzheimer’s disease. ManorCare of Northbrook, where she was staying, offered a seamless transition from the rehabilitation unit into the long-term wing.

“I would come in as a family member,”

“ManorCare has been in the business for over 50 years, so they’ve really pioneered skilled rehab.” | Pauline Mintz recounts Mintz, “and what was so nice about it was that if I ever needed anything, or my grandma needed something — anybody, from the nurse to the nurse manager, would always do it with a smile on their face. The staff was just phenomenal.”

Unbeknownst to the staff, Mintz was a ManorCare employee herself — albeit at a different location. The way her family and grandmother were treated gave her great pride in what she does.

Now as a ManorCare employee at the Northbrook location, Mintz works as a business development specialist for the 158-bed

facility: one of eight centers in the region and more than 500 across the country specializing in skilled nursing and rehabilitation, assisted living, hospice, home health care, and memory care.

In particular, the Northbrook facility is a leading center for rehabilitation and has received 5-star accreditation by The Joint Commission — a nonprofit that accredits more than 20,000 health care programs in the United States — four years running.

“ManorCare has been in the business for over 50 years, so they’ve really pioneered skilled rehab,” says Mintz. “The protocols they’ve implemented and have in place are really able to meet the needs of any patient who wants to rehab and transfer back into the community.”

For example, many times patients who finish a hospital stay as the result of illness, injury or surgery are in stable condition, but they need to complete their recovery.

ManorCare of Northbrook’s short stay medical and rehab unit — or MedBridge — offers just that: a bridge between hospital and home. A multidisciplinary approach oversees orthopedic injuries, total joint replacements, cardiac recovery and complications, stroke and neurological recovery, oncology care, and other complex medical conditions.

Two specialists round out the facility’s cardiac and pulmonary programs: full time cardiologist Dr. Jason Robin of NorthShore University HealthSystem and full time pulmonologist Dr. Elizabeth Klein of Advocate Lutheran General Hospital.

“They have a solid relationship. They work together seamlessly,” explains Administrator Tam Wagner.

And while the goal is to discharge patients

North Shore executive champions critical thinking ■ by bob gariano Diane Offereins, the president of Discover Financial Services Payment Services in Riverwoods, is a senior leader in this successful financial services and bank holding company.

She is also one of the most senior women in the financial services industry globally, being chosen as one of American Banker’s The Most Powerful Women in Banking and Finance for the past five years.

Discover has rewarded its shareholders with a fivefold increase in shareholder value over the last five years. The company has a market capitalization of approximately $27 billion.

Offereins joined Discover in 1998 as the company’s chief technology officer and led the effort to transform the company’s information systems. After Discover acquired the Pulse ATM network — an electronic funds transfer network — in 2005, Offereins was given additional responsibility to oversee that business. Later, she also added Diners Club International to her portfolio of businesses. Under her leadership these businesses have expanded to serve customers in 185 countries, handling $300 billion in payments annually.

“Even in the best-thought-out business plans, we challenge ourselves to think about different approaches and more imaginative ideas.” | Diane Offereins There are three talents that a senior executive must possess in order to create extraordinary results. Table stakes is the intellectual octane to understand and maneuver in the high-velocity and high-stakes global financial markets. But this technical skill is only the beginning of Offereins’s abilities as an executive. The second skill can be described as business acumen, the ability to see and act on commercial opportunities.

“I think that business acumen is built on an analytical approach,” she says. “It means we are constantly questioning even our most appealing business plans to see if they make sense. It is a type of critical thinking that seeks out what I call disconfirming information.

“Even in the best-thought-out business plans, we challenge ourselves to think about different approaches and more imaginative ideas. We look for flaws in our work that will help us anticipate problems before they occur and plan our competitive actions early. It is a critical way of thinking that encourages everyone to think about new ways of approaching issues.”

Offereins went on. “It is important that every leader in a company subscribes to the style and culture of the organization. At Discover, our CEO, David Nelms, has established a culture of commitment and involvement. David cares deeply about the business, our employees, and our shareholders, and that idea is adopted throughout the company.

“Leadership at Discover Financial Services means being involved as a working leader.

We are each a participating member of the team that we lead. We don’t do each other’s jobs, but we all roll up our sleeves and get involved with the task at hand.”

Such leadership skills are developed early in a career, and the patterns are established by having good supervisors early who understand their role in developing such skills in young executives. Offereins was fortunate to have had such good management.

At MBNA America the scale of the business meant that every person had to build their ability to communicate and influence their colleagues across the company. But there were leadership influences in her life that started even earlier than her professional career.

“I was the oldest child in my family and I have four younger brothers,” she notes. “I learned early how to influence, cajole, convince, and even sometimes how to twist an arm or two. These skills become good habits and values. Without them it is hard to compensate later.

“It is like a good golf swing that is learned early. It is awfully difficult to correct a bad swing later in life.”

The analogy is not surprising. In her spare time, Offereins is a perennial candidate for women’s club champion at Conway Farms. Her game exhibits the same cool concentration and tenacity that makes her business leadership compelling. Offereins also contributes her spare time to helping other young women in their professional careers by being an active member of the Chicago Network, the Committee of 200, and Womenetics. She also serves as a trustee for the Children’s Home and Aid Society.

In addition to these philanthropic activities, Offereins is also considering serving on a public company board as an independent director.

Melissa and Michael wake up in the city that never sleeps With 15-year-old twins Emily and Jacob always on the go, Melissa and Michael Pure do their best to ensure the family spends time with each other.

“We try to have dinner together every night, but it’s difficult. It’s like wrangling cats,” Michael says.

Which made the foursome’s weekend in New York City this summer all the more special.

Visiting for a niece’s wedding, they stayed in a hotel on the Upper West Side that featured a room with a terrace.

“We’re eating spicy food at 2 a.m., sitting there and laughing.”

“We ordered fabulous food from a kosher restaurant and ate often on the terrace,” Michael says. “We were happy just being together.”

Late-night excursions were common. Emily, Jacob and their dad ventured out looking for soup once around 1 a.m. On another night, the family walked to The Original Halal Guys, a food cart, even later.

“There must have been a block-long line for it,” Michael says. “We’re eating spicy food at 2 a.m., sitting there and laughing.”

Melissa’s father, Philip Schiller, and his wife Suzanne amassed one of the country’s most comprehensive art collections on social commentary. So it was special for the family to visit the Museum of Modern Art. “Our children could see the difference between the art of social consciousness, which is dark, and the world of modern art,” Michael notes With the kids busy again at Deerfield High School, Melissa and Michael realize the importance of the family jaunt to New York. Says Michael, “It was the best weekend of our lives.” ■ —David Sweet

THe North shore weekend | glenview, northbrook, deerfield | 9/13 – 9/14/14

wines of the week ■ by johnson ho With the final crops of farmers market and garden tomatoes looming, our attention shifts to the home of the best wine partners with classic Italian cucina recipes: Tuscany.

The clay rich soil stretches across the region and has yielded plump and flavorful heirloom tomatoes for centuries. The native grape is called Sangiovese (“Sun-Joe-vayzuh”), meaning the blood of Jove (Roman name for Zeus), because of the shade of red of its wine — especially in the famous Chianti Classico region.

Saturday dinner 2008 Ornellaia (“Or-nuh-Luh-Yuh”), Bolgheri, Western Tuscany; $190 This West Coast region comes closest to cowboy country in Italy because horseback riding herders have been breeding the best beef in the country.

The coastal climate and clay rich land has served as the premier showcase of the “Super Tuscan” wine evolution for slightly over two decades.

Due to its climate resemblance to Bordeaux, a couple of cosmopolitan Florentine families decided to try out Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot as blending grapes to enrich the sometimes astringent Sangiovese wines. It succeeded wildly, and many of these Super Tuscans rival even the top chateaux of Bordeaux.

Ornellaia is one the flagship renditions of this genre because of its opulence and pleasures to all of the senses. Great with steaks, chops, meaty pastas and salumi, especially the local wild boar sausage. Best 7-15 years from vintage after one hour of decanting.

Midweek meaL 2004 Podere Brizio Brunello di Montalcino Riserva, Tuscany; $87.97 The sunny hilltop vineyards of Brunello have enjoyed the reputation for producing the most powerful Sangiovese wine of Tuscany. Brunello means brunette in Italian because the local river acquired the red color by carrying the clay rich soil of the riverbanks downstream.

That clay provides the iron rich nutrients that give the vines tremendous muscularity and concentration of tannins.

The Riserva distinction is given only to exceptional vineyards in excellent vintages.

They require 10-15 years of aging and two hours of decanting before reaching their peak of harmony. Gamey meats, hearty sausages, ham, lasagna and strong cheeses make perfect complements.

Best value 2011 Dei Rosso di Montepulciano, Tuscany; $18 The Rosso di Montepulciano and Rosso di Montalcino, two neighboring villages, represent the equivalent of a second quality for top regions or producers that wish avoid a diminution of their reputation in weaker years or grapes from newly planted vines (it takes 15-plus years for the roots to reach the subsoil for optimal absorption of nutrients).

In great or marginal vintages, the Rossos provide the best value for more casual enjoyment as long as the producer has a topquality reputation, as in this case. From sandwiches to picnics with cold pasta or with veal, pork, poultry or grilled vegetables, Rossos always make a trusted bargain fallback choice after three years from vintage and a half hour of decanting.

Horses lift spirits of special-needs children ■ by joanna brown

Every week for the last decade, Nancy Friedrich has driven her triplet daughters from their home in Bristol, Wis. to Lake Forest to ride horses.

There are undoubtedly dozens of barns closer to their home, but few that offer the kind of therapeutic riding programs that Equestrian Connection has provided for Friedrich’s 16-year-old girls — two of whom have limited mobility due to cerebral palsy.

Equestrian Connection is a not-for-profit organization that has offered therapeutic services to people with special needs since 2001. Its menu of 18 programs ranging from horseback riding to art classes to job coaching pair licensed therapists with individuals and groups — for whatever fee the family is able to pay.

“We started riding at a friend’s house in Gurnee because I had heard so many good things about therapeutic riding. So even before I got them started, I was excited for them,” Friedrich recalled. “When they were little, it gave them the feeling of walking because the gait of a horse is close to the gait of a human. But each year we’ve been at Equestrian Connection, I’ve seen the riding really improve their self-esteem and self-confidence.”

The flexible fee schedule has allowed Friedrich’s daughters Anais, Reagan and Zoe to ride weekly — a luxury they would have otherwise been unable to afford — and the latter two girls to pursue art therapy when they needed a better outlet for expressing their emotions.

“The staff is like our family now. We’ve

seen them every Sunday for the last 10 years,” Friedrich said.

To support their programs and participants, Equestrian Connection will host its ninth annual Marty’s Barn Party Saturday, Sept. 20 at the barn in Lake Forest. Guests will enjoy cocktails, dinner, live and silent auctions, and a performance by Grammynominated country singer David Nail.

Comedienne Patti Vasquez, whose son rides at Equestrian Connection, will act as emcee.

The event is named for one of the barn’s founding Board members and a key benefactor, the late Marty Domitrovich.

The 2013 Barn Party raised enough money to provide full scholarships to 20 riders who would have otherwise been unable to participate in the Equestrian Connection’s programs.

Executive Director Diana Schnell explained that insurance benefits for people with disabilities are often exhausted by their daily needs, with little left for the kinds of therapy the Equestrian Connection aims to provide.

“Our goal from the beginning was to create a center for people with disabilities to feel at home and get the services they need beyond traditional social services. We’ve always served people in any way we could with needs that we felt weren’t being met,” said Schnell, whose twin sons, now in their 20s, also participate in the riding and art therapy programs. Since its founding with three programs for children, the barn has added programs for adults with dementia, veterans and the siblings and parents of people with disabilities.

More than 300 clients come to the barn weekly, from 70 different Chicago-area cities.

love & marriage

■ by joanna brown Not long after the death of my grandfather in 2012, I received instructions to buy myself something that fit two criteria: it had to be something that would remind me of Grandpa, and it had to be something I would have for a long time. The instructions also came with a budget, because that’s how Grandpa was.

It took me more than a year to make a decision, but I finally selected a delicate mantle clock at Lake Buff’s The Clockworks. It’s not extravagant — the paint is even chipped in a few places — but it is unique and it needs to be wound daily. I love it, and I think of Grandpa every time I have to reset the time and wind it up (about every other day.).

The antique clock is a throwback to the wall clock my grandparents had in their home: a stately oak piece with Roman numerals and a pendulum. Most notably it had a key that someone had to insert into the face to wind the clock daily, if not more often.

And oh how my grandparents argued over that clock.

There were constant disagreements over who forgot to wind it, where was that key anyway, and why isn’t the time accurate.

Actually, it was really more bickering than out-and-out

arguing — the kind that you find in most every household, I’m sure. It certainly didn’t lessen their love for each other, nor the success of their family. Everybody bickers, as it is the inevitable result of living with someone.

Consider how many people fight over the thermostat; it was a frequent topic in the household I grew up in. According to a 2013 poll of 3,492 people at www.today.com, 47 percent of respondents argue with their partners over the temperature. Only 15 percent reported that such an argument “never” happens.

The thermostat wasn’t among the topics that Ralph and Phyllis Tarrant bickered about when London’s Daily Mirror interviewed them in 2009. They’d been married 76 years at that point — and explained that bickering was one of the secrets to their success.

“He usually lets me have my own way as he knows that’s best,” explained Phyllis, then 100 years old. “But that doesn’t mean we don’t bicker, because we do. We’re not perfect.

We’ve always had occasional rows about small things. Never big arguments, mind, and I’d like to think we never will.

“Having little rows is good for a relationship. It keeps it healthy. We’re a partnership, and that’s the most important thing.”

pat burns /the new yorker collection/www.cartoonbank.com

No argument that bickering can be healthy for couples

She complained that Ralph, then 106, watched too much soccer on television. And Ralph — who does all the cooking in their household — said Phyllis can’t make up her mind regarding what she wants to eat on any given day.

These complaints all sound silly — and yet not unfamiliar if you’ve been with your partner for any length of time.

I’ll close with wisdom from two great thinkers and hope that it sticks with me in the days and years ahead.

First, from Anne Frank, in “The Diary of a Young Girl”: “I think it’s odd that grown-ups quarrel so easily and so often and about such petty matters. Up to now I always thought bickering was just something children did and that they outgrew it.”

And also from Aristotle: “Everybody can get angry, that’s easy. But getting angry at the right person, with the right intensity, at the right time, for the right reason and in the right way — that’s hard.”

Bedside Manor gets fabrics and furniture ready for fall Bedside Manor — which has stores in Winnetka and Lake Forest, among others — offers luxury bedding and more. photography by joel lerner

■ by simon murray “In New York, the buzz I was hearing after talking to a couple of trusted designers was that Art Deco is making a comeback,” says Meg Carroll, referring to the look of furniture in the bedroom. “Blues in general are really gaining focus as well.”

“People tend to look inside their homes for what they want to refresh for the upcoming season.” | Meg Carroll Carroll — the owner of Bedside Manor with her husband, Mike — would know. Starting from humble beginnings as a boutique specializing in brass beds and Amish quilts, Bedside Manor has grown a quarter century later into a premier destination on the North Shore and in Chicago for luxury fabrics, furniture, and bedding for the home.

And just like the fashion world, the owners are conscious of the ebb and flow of trends, from season to season.

“People tend to look inside their homes for what they want to refresh for the upcoming season, and I do think going from summer to fall is a time,

traditionally, when people are going to change up their linens,” Carroll says, after picking up a cashmere throw blanket and running her hands through the silky texture. “I think when we go outside of the master bedroom, we’re going to find brighter colors. For the master bedroom, the cashmere cream, this particular one has more lorex in it so it has a nice sparkle, which gives it a more dressy appeal.”

According to Carroll, cashmere “continues to be a very popular fabric in home accents with a wide range in prices, colors, and patterns.”

Bedside Manor’s collection changes with the seasons. The four locations — in Lake Forest, Winnetka, Chicago, and Hinsdale (each with its own personality, says Carroll) — will be carrying more blankets, throws, and accent pieces in preparation for the winter chill. “[Homeowners] are going to be adding more layers for the colder weather that’s coming, to warm up, and making the inside cozier,” notes Carroll.

Bedside Manor carries the Adri Collection, each fur pillow designed and sewn in the United States; the internationally acclaimed Yves Delorme, a family-owned French linens and accessories company; and luxury bedding by Eastern Accents — and that’s only if you count the bedroom. Bedside Manor also specializes in dressing up the bathroom and table with a range of highquality brands. ■

Emerging talent Hong’s golf game is on the upswing ■ by patrick z. mcgavin

sports@northshoreweekend.com Growing up, Amy Hong experimented with every sport she could think of. It befits her nature and personality.

The sport that mattered struck a wholly different chord, a personal one she shared with the older sister, Ashley, who was always her biggest influence.

Three years older, Ashley Hong was a natural and skilled golfer. The girls’ father also played. Amy’s introduction to the sport was intuitive.

She made the sport, rather than the other way around.

“With golf, it’s as much about the mental game as the physical, and I felt I already had a strong mental game,” said Amy Hong, a Glenbrook North junior. “What happened was the sport became a lot more fun, because I started to do so well.”

She watched Ashley closely, and the benefits to her own game followed. She adopted her own style and approach. Hong has come into her own after a standout summer.

Knowing she wanted to refine her game, she participated in multiple tournaments.

Hong identified the area of her game that needed additional work. She just put in the time, the sometimes grueling and punishing repetition.

For a decade she has worked tirelessly with her private swing coach, instructor ChuHan Lee of Sportsman’s Country Club, in Northbrook, on her form and mechanics.

“In the past she sometimes had too much of an inside-outside swing, and it disrupted the curvature of the ball, either pushing it right or hooking it,” Lee said.

Her mechanics were sometimes choppy.

Lee worked with her to slow down and better control the tempo of her swing.

“I practiced every single day,” she said.

“We worked on every aspect of my swing.

“With all of my hard work, you see the results out there.”

Second-year Glenbrook North girls golf

coach Michael Schroeder has watched her evolution closely. The dedication and almost relentless urge to get better is self-evident.

Her competitiveness and high work rate combined with subtle improvements in her skill level have transformed her into the Spartans’ No. 1 player.

“Her greatest strength as a player is that she has no weakness,” Schroeder said. “She has always been a great ball striker, but the biggest improvement is her short game.

Inside of 30 yards to the green, she has become much more consistent.

“Even on those days she is not hitting the ball especially well, she is still scoring,” the coach added.

To prepare herself for the rigors of the season, Hong also alternated between different styles of courses, playing a par-3 to expose herself to different layouts and course designs in order to work through different scenarios and be prepared for radically different situations.

“Over the summer she played in a ton of events, and she got used to competition and the amount of quality reps,” Schroeder said.

Hong also has the advantage of playing and practicing with another elite player, sophomore Emma Vickery. The two push each other, Schroeder said. Having a top-flight challenger solidifies Hong’s own game, and helps her maintain a sharp and competitive edge. So faces a lot of strong competition in the Central Suburban South.

Hong’s best individual performance came in a triangular against Glenbrook South and New Trier on Aug. 27, when she shot a 2-under par 33 to claim medalist honors.

She placed sixth (80) in the Conant Invite on Aug. 18.

Ashley Hong qualified for the state tournament her last two years at Glenbrook North.

That is Amy’s next goal.

She is excited by what is next.

“Her tee to the green game has always been solid, but in her dedication to practicing every kind of shot, she has become a more mature player,” Schroeder said. ■

with elliott hurtig

Evanston native and Deerfield High School English teacher/boys soccer coach Elliott Hurtig, 50, watched the first half the 2014 FIFA World Cup from the Czech Republic and the second half of it from the United States. A former center midfielder for Evanston Township HS and the University of Wisconsin, he spent the 2013-14 academic year in Prague with his wife, Robyn, and their two boys (ages 14 and 12) as part of a Fulbright Teacher Exchange.

He returned to teaching and coaching at DHS in August, in time for his eighth season as boys varsity coach and 15th in the program. His Warriors improved to 3-2-1 when they edged Stevenson’s visiting Patriots 1-0 on Sept. 4, after which he discussed a variety of topics, from the rewards of coaching to his wife’s best shot in tennis to a conclusion he made after watching a recent Chicago Fire home match.

Q: Did you coach soccer in the Czech Republic?

A: No, and I’m glad I didn’t. I feel refreshed as a coach right now. What a beautiful country, a country I’d always wanted to visit. It’s also romantic; we stayed in a place right near the river [Vltava]. We were lucky because the Czech Republic was our first choice. My wife worked parttime and enjoyed the European life. She also rowed for a team and did yoga.

Q: Soccer clubs, including the Fire Academy, continue to pluck elite players from high school programs. Your thoughts?

A: I understand what the U.S. Soccer Federation wants to do with its academies, developing the top 1 percent of players from states. We lost one player to the Fire Academy [in the last four years]; other schools have been hit harder.

When you play for your high school, you’re playing at a very competitive level with your friends. The connections you make in that kind of environment … they’re priceless. I feel too many decisions [to play club rather than prep soccer] are based on what the future might be for a player instead of the present — a player should appreciate and take advantage of the the opportunity to play for his school because I’ve always believed, if you’re an elite soccer player, you’ll be found by college coaches no matter where you play.

Q: New Trier hosted its inaugural Northside College Showcase Tournament this month, featuring eight teams and the attendance of coaches from 10 colleges. Was that an attempt to make high school soccer more attractive for elite players?

A: First of all, I like it because the tournament’s field is competitive. It’s always good to play great teams. Do I think it’s an added attraction to families with players interested in playing college soccer? Yes. Q: What was it like playing for the Wisconsin Badgers?

A: My college soccer career was up and down. But you know what? When you ask a player about his soccer experiences, he usually talks about his years as a high school player before any other soccer experiences. To this day I’m thankful I got to play at Evanston. I would have never wanted to miss out on the lasting connections I made while playing high school soccer.

Q: You coached Joey Calistri, Scott Lakin and Connor Holloway at Deerfield, a trio of standouts that played at Northwestern University. How do you think they’ll look back at their seasons as DHS Warriors?

A: They played in the pre-Fire Academy era. They all feel, I’m sure, their years as high school soccer players were positive ones.

Q: What do you like about this year’s varsity squad?

A: Its camaraderie, along with its sense of community.

We talk a lot about passion for the game … soccer means so much to this group.

Q: What is the most rewarding aspect of coaching?

A: I love watching a team play with fire in the belly, with tenacity, and knowing our coaching staff helped shape a culture of commitment during practices. I feel blessed that I have such a fantastic coaching staff, such a hard-working coaching staff. All five teach in the building — that makes

my job an easy one.

Q: Do you still play soccer?

A: Yes. And I have a blast every time I do [on Thursday nights]. The day after, I’m sore, especially if we had played on a gym floor.

Q: What was one of the most memorable goals scored by a Warrior in your coaching career?

A: Hooman Shams scored one in a playoff game, about six years ago after breaking down the middle of the field [vs. Stevenson for a regional championship]. He scored on a diving header, from about eight yards out [to clinch the victory in the fourth overtime]. He was a great player … played at NIU. At the beginning of that season, his senior year, he wasn’t enjoying soccer, didn’t feel connected. But he stuck it out. After he scored that goal, I remember one of Hooman’s teammates, Brian Frankel, hugging him and telling him, ‘This feeling … this is why high school soccer is special, and this is a moment you’ll never forget.’

Q: What do you like to do in your free time?

A: Play soccer, play tennis or play rat [ice] hockey. My wife and I like to play tennis, sometimes twice a week; she has a wicked forehand. I also enjoy traveling and reading and writing. I try to write poetry when I can. I need structure, so I’ll join a writers’ group, sign up for a creative writing class. I usually write poetry in the summer, and I get feedback from my wife and sister [Janise, of Evanston].

Q: What did you think of the 2014 FIFA World Cup? A: That was the best World Cup tournament I’ve ever seen, especially the first half of it. Soccer in the U.S. hit an new level during the World Cup. I was at a Fire game [in August], one of 17,000 fans in attendance. That place [Toyota Park] was rocking.

Q: How long do you intend to coach soccer?

A: I feel young. As long as I feel young and energized, I’ll keep doing this. ■

THe North shore weekend | glenview, northbrook, deerfield | 9/13 – 9/14/14

Game filled with ‘singular’ performances ■ by kevin reiterman

sports@northshoreweekend.com Guys with single digits on their jerseys made their share of limelight plays in this Week Two matchup.

The St. Viator-Deerfield football clash was filled with inverses: Players who wore tiny numbers made huge plays.

Deerfield High School running back/defensive back Alex Williams, who wears No. 2, gave the home team a jolt midway through the second quarter, when he took a toss to the right side, tilted sideways on a cutback move and raced 68 yards up field.

“I saw a lot of green, after I broke through the line,” said Williams, following his team’s 45-20 setback to visiting St. Viator on Sept. 5.

The senior, a three-year varsity player for the Warriors, didn’t quite reach pay dirt.

He was chased down and tackled at the St. Viator 6-yard line by — who else? — a player wearing a single digit: No. 6 Luke Fulton.

Williams was thrown to the turf hard.

Fulton was flagged for a facemask penalty.

“That No. 6 is an aggressive player,” said Williams. “He’s not going to give up on a play.”

Two plays later, Deerfield junior fullback Johnny Fisher barreled into the end zone from two yards out to cut into St. Viator’s 21-0 lead.

Williams is more than capable of breaking off a big play. Last fall, he averaged 11.0 yards per carry and led the Warriors with eight rushing touchdowns.

Deerfield’s Steve Winiecki knows his senior back is dangerous with the ball in his hands.

“You get a lot of that with him,” said the

veteran head coach, referring to Williams’ 68-yard run.

Williams loves his No. 2 jersey.

“It’s part of my identity,” he said.

Meanwhile, it was easy to identify St. Viator’s playmakers. Their names — and jersey numbers — were bunched at or near the top of the Lions’ roster.

No. 1 — wide receiver Matthew Darling.

He caught seven passes for 86 yards, including two TDs. No. 5 — quarterback Tyler Johnston. He was your prototypical mobile quarterback.

He threw for 202 yards.

No. 4 — wide receiver Ben Dickey. He caught five passes for 75 yards. He also had two TDs. “They wear those (single digit) numbers for a reason,” said Winiecki, who now will prepare his team for an away game at Glenbrook

South (2-0) on Sept. 12 (7:30 p.m.).

Meanwhile, Fisher, who has a pair of 4s on his jersey, ran the ball with authority.

He had a trio of double-digit gains (10, 12 and 25 yards) and finished with 98 yards on 15 carries.

“He’s a tough runner,” said Winiecki, noting that Fisher went over 100 yards in the season opener against Zion-Benton on Aug. 29.

Junior quarterback Anthony Ranallo shook off a tough start and wound up with 100 rushing yards on 19 carries. On Deerfield’s first series of the second half, he displayed some impressive speed on a 44-yard TD run.

Defensively, the Warriors (1-1) were led by Michael Kuras (10 tackles), Quincy Novak (2 sacks), Graham Tonner (5 tackles, 11-yard sack) and Charlie Jones (interception). ■

GBN’s Ahern a hero in return to football field ■ by t.j. brown

sports@northshoreweekend.com It was a delayed opening night for Glenbrook North quarterback Danny Ahern.

An injury kept Ahern out of the season opener, a 16-0 loss to host Hersey on Aug. 29.

In Week Two, lightning and torrential rains delayed GBN’s home opener with Steinmetz for almost an hour on Sept. 5.

When Ahern finally hit the field, points hit the scoreboard.

In the opening frame, Ahern tossed touchdown passes to Brice Call (25 yards) and David Burnside (21 and 18 yards).

Running back John Clark also had a terrific start. He had TD runs of 15, 26 and 6 yards in the first quarter.

That was more than enough to invoke a running clock.

The game was effectively over before it really started.

By the time it did end, Glenbrook North (1-1) had a 62-0 win over a Steinmetz (1-1) team that dressed only 25 players.

“It felt good to finally get out there,” Ahern said. “I felt

nervous because it was my first game, but I was excited. I had a great time.”

It was a relatively short time, too, as those three touchdown passes were his only throws of the night. Junior Drew Moran took over in the second quarter after Ahern went 3-for-3 for 64 yards.

Maybe it was only a matter of dipping his toe in the water for Ahern. On Sept. 12, he’ll be jumping into the deep end of the pool when GBN faces CSL South powerhouse Maine South in the first crossover game. He’ll face a sterner test.

For now, he’s at least back on the field.

Ahern battled a double-sprained ankle during summer practices. Then, he turned his left ankle during an intrasquad scrimmage the week before the opener at Hersey.

Despite trying everything to get on the field, he was a no-go.

By game time it was so swollen, I couldn’t play. I suited up to see how I felt, and I just couldn’t play,” Ahern said.

“But this week I felt pretty good in practice.”

“Hopefully if he can stay healthy, he’ll continue to play well for us,” Spartans head coach Bob Pieper said. “We

couldn’t get the ball to (Burnside) much the first game, but we did tonight.”

Some of that credit should go to Ahern, but he was quick to pass credit around as well.

“It was good to have this game to get in the groove and get the offense going,” he said. “Last week we had a hard time getting it out to our playmakers, our receivers Burnside and Brice Call. This week we didn’t have a problem with that.”

Notable: Clark was the other big standout with 118 rushing yards and three touchdowns on seven carries before giving way to the GBN reserves. Like the rest of the offense, Clark struggled in the opener. Pieper sees a lot of potential in him, though.

“The possibilities are endless with him,” Pieper said. “He has all kinds of potential. He played real well tonight. He has to do it every week.”

Clark agreed.
