Beware the phishermen How to protect yourself from identity theft scams

By Dave Cook dcook@bcrnews.com

As incidents of identity theft continue to rise, it’s becoming more important than ever to guard personal information. As quickly as security features and investigation methods improve, identity thieves change their bait. Phishing is the name given to email and website scams and can include sophisticated thefts over the phone. Below are some examples of phishing and tips on how to avoid becoming the catch of the day.

If you receive an email, text or phone call and see or hear the following, be on guard:

• We suspect an unauthorized transaction on your account. To ensure your account is not compromised, please click the link below to confirm your identity.

• During our regular verification of accounts we couldn’t verify your information. Please click here to update and verify your information.

• Our records indicate your account was overcharged.

You must call within seven days to receive your refund.

These messages will appear to be from places you do business with, such as banks or credit companies.

They can threaten to close your account or take further action if you don’t respond. Don’t reply, use the link or call phone numbers provided in the message. These can

direct you to phony sites. They may look real, but their real purpose is to acquire your information. If you’re concerned about your account and want to contact the organization the message claims to represent, call the number on your financial statements or on the back of your credit card.

Another common scam is a caller claiming they are from the IRS. IRS scammers use fake names and badge numbers and may know the last four digits of your social security number. They can be capable of spoofing the IRS tollfree number to make it appear as if it’s the IRS calling and victims can hear background noise that mimics a busy call center. They can also send phony emails to

DePue man dies in crash Accident still under investigation

By Goldie Rapp grapp@bcrnews.com

PRINCETON — The Princeton Police Department and Bureau County Coroner’s Office are investigating a fatal motorcycle crash that occurred on Ace Road near Van’s Way around 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 10.

Bureau County Coroner Janice Wamhoff said she pronounced the 54-year-old DePue man dead at 8 p.m. She said the cause of death was massive trauma to the head.

Wamhoff said the driver of the motorcycle allegedly had been headed home from an out-of-town

football game where he had been to watch his daughter cheer.

She said it appeared the driver took Ace Road on his ride home.

When he attempted to turn onto Van’s Way from Ace Road, Wamhoff said it appeared the motorcycle was going too fast. When the driver tried to negotiate the curve, the motorcycle struck a curb, causing the crash, she said.

Police continue to investigate the accident. Wamhoff is withholding the name of the man until all family members have been notified of the accident.

The energy in empathy State Superintendent Tony Smith advocates for relationship and continuity in the classroom

By Eric Engel eengel@bcrnews.com

SPRING VALLEY — After sharing his thoughts on how to improve education at the Illinois Association of School Boards Starved Rock Division Fall dinner Tuesday, Oct. 6, Illinois State Superintendent Tony Smith addressed questions from fellow educators in the crowd.

When asked about district size and his thoughts on consolidation, Smith said the conversation must be based around the best possible outcome for our children. He doesn’t want to center around a particular number of districts, but allow communities to discuss

how they can maximize services by sharing resources.

“As long as you’re working on and from what kids need, I don’t really care how many districts we have,” Smith said, gladly dissecting issues with the mindset that “we make meaning by being in dialogue.”

The topic of school funding arose, and Smith indicated the cuts Illinois has experienced over this previous decade have to stop, regardless the endurance state educators have shown in overcoming these seemingly annual cuts.

“I have yet to be in a conversation anywhere

Hoping to end hunger On Sunday, participants of the annual Bureau County CROP Walk to end hunger started their trek at Nelson Chapel in Princeton. The walk to help end hunger locally as well as around the world brings awareness to the hungry among us. Pastor Brian Hall prayed with participants prior to the walk, and Vanessa Hoffeditz from the Bureau County Food Pantry talked to participants about the number of people who receive services locally from the food pantry.

Witches Night Out

By Goldie Rapp grapp@bcrnews.com

PRINCETON — Get ready for a wickedly fun shopping event — sure to stir up a spooky good time.

The Princeton Main Street businesses will be open extra late from 4 to 8 p.m. this Friday Oct. 16, for Witches Night Out. Grab a gaggle of your favorite witches, my pretties, for special discounts, giveaways, spirits and surprises.

The event is sponsored by Princeton businesses and Princeton area Chamber of Commerce and Main Street.

Princeton Chamber Director Kim Frey said this event is another way the Chamber can encourage keeping business local and shopping local.

“Statistics show keeping your money local increases sales taxes and benefits

the shopper, businesses and the town,” she said. “The Chamber is always willing to get behind any event that promotes local business.”

The evening will also feature an entertaining photo booth for shoppers to take a break and get goofy with friends or family to make memories of the night. There will also be appetizers and beverages served in various businesses. Watch out for the witches walking the streets giving out terrifying good-deals.

Frey said many of the Main Street businesses are now premiering their fall and holiday items. She said this will be a great opportunity to get out and see what they now have to offer and perhaps gather ideas for the upcoming holiday shopping season.

Businesses beware of statewide corporate scam and other similar attempts to confuse Illinois business owners about state law.

White is recommending that corporations do not reply to the solicitation.

He also recommends business owners who believe they’ve been targeted by this scam file a complaint with the Attorney General’s Office.

“Posing as government officials is a tactic frequently used by scammers, so it’s important that business owners be vigilant,” said Madigan. “If business owners are asked to submit fees and forms they are unfamiliar with, I encourage them to first contact my office.”

All of the Secretary of State’s business services forms are available on the website at www.cyberdriveillinois.com. For all other questions, call 217-782-6961.

If a business would like to file a complaint in relation to this solicitation, contact the Illinois Attorney General’s Office Consumer Fraud Bureau at 800243-0618 or visit IllinoisAttorneyGeneral.gov.

Illinois Secretary of State Jesse White and Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan are warning businesses to beware of a scam targeting Illinois corporations.

A firm called Illinois Council for Corporations is contacting Illinois businesses in an attempt to collect a $125 fee to fill out a corporation’s “annual minutes records form.” The Illinois Business Corporation Act does not require corporations to file a minutes records form or pay such a fee with the state or any private entity.

“This bogus firm is sending out a form that looks similar to the Secretary of State’s annual report form,” White said. “We are concerned that companies are filing the form and paying the $125 fee because they believe they are filing their annual report with us, as required by law.”

There is no fee due to the state for annual minutes. The annual report fee is normally the only fee a corporation would pay to the Secretary of State Business Services Department. Illinois corporations should be on alert for this

The improv group will perform in Princeton at 1 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 14, in the Elks lodge.

Killian is hoping many area agencies and community members take advantage of this opportunity to come out and see the performance.

“By coming they are not supporting Freedom House. They are supporting the women who walk through these doors,” she said.

Those who can’t make it to the Princeton performance will also have three other opportunities to see the theatre group’s performance.

They will perform in Lacon on Wednesday, Oct. 21, at 1 p.m. in the Congregational Church, at IVCC on Tuesday, Oct. 27, at 4 p.m. and in Granville on Wednesday, Oct. 28, at 1 p.m. in the United Church. Performances are free to the public.

Get Back In The Game

SPECIALIZING IN: •Ankle Surgery

PRINCETON — Freedom House has kicked off its observance of Domestic Awareness Month.

Each year in October, the organization provides an outreach event to help educate the community about the victims of domestic violence to help them better understand the struggles the victims endure.

This year, Freedom House teamed up with the Illinois Valley Community College theatre group improv team to produce a provoking performance showcasing the struggles women go through after leaving an abusive relationship.

Amber Killian, Freedom House shelter advocate, said this year’s event is meant to target agencies that work with the victims of domestic violence.

The overall theme focuses around the hoops women have to jump through

once they leave.

“A lot of times it creates an atmosphere for them that it’s almost easier to stay. We want to invite agencies to help them understand that when a woman has left, if the system fails her, she’s more likely to go back to what she knows has worked in the past,” Killian said.

“We want to create a discussion on how agencies may be unwillingly creating barriers for women, because of funding or their policies.”

Killian said the improv group was able to come up with a 25-minute performance that portrays that powerful message.

“You can tell they understand and get it, and it’s really been a pleasure to work with them,” she said. “Everyone is just amazed by the performance. I think a lot of them are walking away with a different perspective on what these women go through.”

If you know or think you might owe taxes, call the IRS directly at 1-800-829-1040. If you know you don’t owe taxes or have any reason to suspect you do, such as never receiving a bill, call and report the event to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration at 1-800-366-4484. The IRS also does not initiate contact with taxpayers by e-mail to request personal information. Recipients should forward suspicious IRS e-mails to www.phishing@irs.gov.

Taxpayers should also be aware there are other unrelated scams such as lottery sweepstakes and solicitations from debt relief that can falsely claim to be from the IRS. To help avoid phishing attacks use trusted security software and set it to update automatically. Review your billing statements as soon as you receive them to check for unauthorized charges. Be cautious about opening attachments and downloading files from e-mails. These files can contain viruses or other malware meant to weaken you computer’s security. Forward phishing e-mails to www.spam@uce.gov and to the organization being impersonated. You may also report them to www.reportphishing@antiphishing.org.

Fall brush pick-up in Ladd LADD — The fall brush pick-up in the village of Ladd will be Monday, Oct. 19, weather permitting. Crews will pick up tree and shrub trimmings that are from 3 to 8 feet in length and up to 6 inches in diameter. Piles should not exceed 4 feet by 8 feet in size. Larger branches and items such as stumps, roots and professional tree trimmings will not be collected.

Bundles should not be tied or bound and are to be stacked with the cut end toward the street. Crews will start working early in the morning and make one pass only through the area. For more information, contact the village clerk at 815894-2440.

From Page 1 in the state of Illinois where anybody says the current system is working,” Smith said, adding everyone agrees different children need different amounts of money based off their abilities and socioeconomic background. “If a child doesn’t have resources in their family, the public system needs to help those kids succeed.”

While serving the city of Oakland, Smith said every year in district leadership they had to cut, resulting in the closure of dozens of schools, which was “heartbreaking.” He laughed at the terrible rationale of those who say, “clearly the cuts are working because they are still doing it.’\”

“People don’t even know how to talk about what we should get back for an investment in education, so there’s a whole lot of education required in this conversation still,” said Smith.

In discussion of quality comparable assessments, Smith said there needs to be more effective ways of keeping standards equal from district to district, and there is power in actually confronting old ways of thinking. He believes a well-rounded view of each child leads to a stronger and more empathetic classroom setting. Using a researchbased example, Smith said when a friend and a stranger asks a person an identical question, so much more of the brain is trying to answer the question presented from the friend.

“The power of relationship is not a soft thing, and good relationships in a classroom actually strengthens the overall power of problem-solving in that classroom,” Smith said, indicating he would always rather spending his time building something than focusing primarily on what’s ineffective.

To have deep engagement, we have to start asking different questions, Smith said, and avoid judgment about who deserves what. He shared of personal success reliant entirely on people around him who were not mandated to care for him, but chose to regardless.

“If we start judging people before we do things different to engage them, that’s on us,” he said.

Smith suggested to citi-

zens of Illinois they open their minds and their proverbial gates to educators and professionals who want to relocate into the state and help generate progress, and said avenues toward solution are driven by the collective spirit of each member of the workforce.

Having high-quality teachers who care for and encourage their students to desire growth is vital, and Smith said he will rely fully on the motivated individuals who surround him.

“I’m going to hold everyone in trust to do the right things to strengthen families in Illinois,” said Smith. “Once we come to that moment, that’s going to be a hard political moment, and I’m going to need your help.”

Irrigators must report water usage The Illinois State Water Survey (ISWS) is now requiring Illinois irrigators to report their water usage to the state.

The requirement stems from the Illinois Water Use Act, which was amended in 2010 to make reporting for all high capacity wells or intakes mandatory in Illinois, including agricultural irrigation.

“This is a new requirement that many of our irrigators may not be familiar with,” said Lauren Lurkins, director of natural and environmental resources, Illinois Farm Bureau. “Under the amended law, irrigators were given five years to comply. Irrigators must report their water usage for the first time by the end of the 2015 calendar year, and we’ve been working with the ISWS to provide our farmers with all the options and information possible.”

Under the amended law, high capacity irrigators are required to report their water use from both wells and surface water intakes, as well as the location of each well and intake. Irrigators may either provide an actual number of gallons pumped, if they’re using a flow meter, or estimate their water withdrawals using a method approved by the ISWS. All reporting forms, as well as water withdrawal estimation methods, can be found on the ISWS website at http://www.sws.uiuc.edu/gws/iwip/irrigation/. A handbook with additional information and guidance also can be found on the website.

Additionally, the ISWS will allow both individual and aggregate water reporting. For more information on reporting water use in the aggregate, contact the Bureau County Farm Bureau.

From the editor’s desk It’s difficult to believe this Thursday, Oct. 15, is our Illinois Valley Living Women of Distinction Awards luncheon at The Barn at Hornbaker Gardens in Princeton. Why it seems like yesterday when the call for nominations went out to each and every one of you.

I’m really excited about this event.

Quite frankly, of all the events our newspapers and magazines host, this one is probably my favorite ... for a variety of reasons. Not only is this a luncheon to honor this year’s Women of Distinction, it is also a time to applaud women in general for all they do to make life better Terri Simon in the Illinois Valley for others. While we will be honoring six women this year — Linda Gustafson, Kathy Jo Lindner, Betty Jean Pappas, Sen. Sue Rezin, Denise Etscheid Sabotta and Janice Wamhoff — the day is filled with many inspirational moments to honor women in general. On top of that, it’s a great meal with lots of freebies and plenty of fun.

I’m also really anticipating our keynote speaker — Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan, who has graciously agreed to attend. A strong voice for women and Illinois in general, Madigan is an engaging speaker and will no doubt leave us with many things to ponder.

Do you have your ticket yet? If not, there are a few tickets available, but you must call today. Call Christy at 815-875-4461, ext. 6320. Tickets are $30, which includes lunch, a goodie bag, a ton of door prizes and the opportunity to see why women are so important to the Illinois Valley. The event is open to everyone. I sure hope to see you there.

••• I hope you are enjoying our Friday Night Blitz football section that arrives in your newspaper every Saturday morning during football season. I’ve heard great comments from all kinds of folks about this special section. If you like it or have suggestions for next year, feel free to contact BCR Sports Editor Kevin Hieronymus at 815-875-4461, ext. 6336, or at khieronymus@bcrnews.com.

And speaking of football ... what about those Princeton Tigers, who have broken a school record with their 7-0 season — the first time in school history.

If you haven’t yet seen these young men play, you’ll want to attend a game soon. Congrats, guys!

And that’s not to take away from our other local teams, who are doing great things on the gridiron, the soccer pitch, the volleyball court, the golf course and more. Our high school athletes in Bureau County are not only great players, but I always see them display such great sportsmanship. They should be applauded, as should their coaches and parents/guardians.

••• Have you noticed all the Halloween decorations popping up around the county? I read somewhere the other day that next to Christmas, Halloween is the most decorated holiday. I like Halloween. It’s a no-brainer holiday that exudes frightful fun, plenty of treats and spooky scenarios. If you’re out and about, watch for some fantastic Halloween displays around the county.

By the way ... the Bureau County Republican’s Editorial Department always serves as a depository for all your leftover Halloween candy, so when you are making your trick-or-treat purchases, don’t worry if you buy too much. Now you know there is always a place that will be more than happy to help you get rid of your extras. Ha! ••• With our cooler days/nights, the leaves are bound to start changing rapidly. Make plans now to take a fall drive to check out all the colors. There is only one Fall 2015. Make the most of it.

••• Harvest is in full swing. Please take a few extra minutes on your daily drives/commutes and watch for slow-moving vehicles. And for the farmers out there: I respect you immensely. Remember a tired farmer is not a safe farmer. Please try to get plenty of rest.

••• It’s a busy time of year. Take time to make time. Go visit your parents, grandparents ... and don’t be in a hurry when you do. Call them daily. You’ll be glad you did. And remember ... you are important to me and the BCR.

Mautino good choice as auditor general The Legislative Audit Commission’s recommendation that a longtime Illinois Valley lawmaker be appointed state auditor general is a good one. We encourage the state House and Senate to concur.

If Illinois state representatives and senators agree with the Legislative Audit Commission, then Illinois’ next auditor general will hail from Bureau County.

We speak of state Rep. Frank J. Mautino, a Democrat from Spring Valley.

We believe Mautino is a good choice to replace retiring Auditor General William Holland, who will step down Dec. 31 after 23 years.

Mautino, 53, has extensive experience in state government. He has served in the House for 24 years, the past four as assistant majority leader.

Mautino is considered an expert

on state budgeting procedures. He also has served on the Legislative Audit Commission, so he is well versed in the Legislature’s role in reviewing the audits produced by the Auditor General’s Office and seeing to it that their recommendations are fully considered by the various departments and agencies in question.

The office of auditor general is actually a state constitutional office, but unlike the governor, lieutenant governor, secretary of state, attorney general, treasurer and comptroller, the auditor general is not elected by voters. Instead, that person is selected by the Legislature for a 10-year term.

The lengthy term is designed to shield the auditor general from politics. The selection process also ensures that the auditor general is responsive to the interests of the Legislature that the taxpayer dollars it appropriates and the budgets it approves are administered properly.

When he announced his upcoming retirement, Holland was widely praised for the way he has run the office for the past 23 years.

That’s saying something, because before he took office in 1992, Holland had served as chief of staff for former Senate President Phil Rock, an Oak Park Democrat. Some people then were concerned that Hol-

land might not be impartial.

Instead, Holland shed his politics and conducted his duties in a fair and straightforward manner. He became a well-respected watchdog over the expenditure of public funds.

Mautino would do well to emulate Holland in that regard. As Holland was closely associated with a Democratic Senate president, Mautino similarly is closely associated with powerful House Speaker Michael Madigan, a Chicago Democrat.

It speaks well of Mautino that the bipartisan Legislative Audit Commission voted nearly unanimously (11-1) to recommend him. That means Democrats and Republicans believe him to be the best choice out of four finalists.

Approval by the full Legislature could come later this month, which would mark the end to four decades of a Mautino family member in the House. Mautino’s father, Richard, was a lawmaker from 1975 until his death in 1991.

It would also mark a new chapter in Frank Mautino’s career in public service, taking on an important watchdog role with responsibilities to all Illinoisans.

We believe Mautino is up to the challenge. We wish him well.

The Walnut Rotary has a long history of helping area young people.

The club, through Rotary International and local fundraisers, has sent young men and women to numerous conferences addressing international issues and donated proceeds from previous cookouts to the BVHS

German Club and Renaissance Club.

The Rotary Club will be serving pork chop sandwiches, brats and hot dogs at the Veterans’ Memorial from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 17.

“Your support of Bureau Valley students and our future community leaders would be most welcome,” Harkness said. “We look forward to a big turnout on Oct. 17.”

A quiet morning for contemplative prayer PRINCETON — Open Prairie United Church of Christ in Princeton, will host a morning for contemplation, prayer and meditation from 8 to 11 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 17.

The church is at 25 E. Marion St., behind the Apollo theater.

Open Prairie’s pastor, the Rev. Mary G. McKinney, will facilitate the morning.

She has participated in Eight Day Centering Prayer Retreats at St. Benedict’s Monastery in Snowmass, Colo., and at the Benedictine Sisters Retreat Center in Cullman, Ala. Most recently, she participat-

ed in a 10-day experience at the Illinois Vipassana Center in rural Pecatonica.

Many faith traditions embrace silence and listening as a form of prayer or religious practice. People who don’t embrace a particular faith find meditation a help in a noisy world with many demands.

The morning will be an opportunity to experience what comes from centering with others in quiet.

There will be contrast periods of silence with breaks, quotes from Father Thomas Keating, one of the founders of the modern centering

prayer movement, and times to visit quietly.

Coffee will be on for early arrivals beginning at 7:30 a.m. The morning begins promptly at 8 a.m. The 9 a.m. break includes a light breakfast.

There is no cost to attend. Small donations toward breakfast expenses are welcome though definitely not required. Those planning to attend are asked to leave a message with Open Prairie by calling 815872-5150 with any questions and/ or indicating that you would like to attend.

We took a trip every three months and visited all the states except North Dakota. We then went on to see 43 countries, including Russia on five cruises and 11 other trips. I am lonesome without my wife of 68 years. However, I am fortunate to have two loving daughters and several close friends who care about me. I am also grateful to them. Thank you again.

Complete with 12 songs, “Church Basement Ladies” is a celebration of the church basement kitchen and the women who work there featuring four distinct characters and their relationships as they organize the food and the problems of a rural Minnesota church. From the elderly matriarch of the kitchen to the young bride-to-be learning the proper order of things, the book and music give us a touching, funny look at their lives as we see them handle a record-breaking Christmas dinner, the funeral of a dear friend, a Hawaiian Easter fundraiser and a steaming hot

Area golfers seek state berths

The Princeton Tigers and Alleman Pioneers soccer teams have met twice this season, each winning once.

The third time’s going to be the one that counts most.

Area roundup

Lady Lions fourth in LTC tourney

By Kevin Hieronymus khieronymus@bcrnews.com

Area golfers were seeking state berths at three different sites around Northern Illinois Monday, Oct. 12.

Results were not available by press time Monday.

Visit www.bcrnews.com/sports for updates.

At Spring Creek: St. Bede was the host for the 1A girls sectional at Spring Creek, the home course for local hopefuls Aiko Mendoza of St. Bede and Amanda Scheri. They were joined by Princeton’s Arraia Hicks and Audra Reidner and Putnam County’s Olivia Holmes and Lauren Bauer.

Hicks qualified for state in 2014.

At Byron: Four area boys competed in the Byron 1A Sectional at Prairie View Golf Course — junior Matt Hoscheid of Hall, sophomores Caleb Sarff of Amboy/LaMoille and Caleb Dzierzynski of Putnam County and senior Jack Kunkel of St. Bede.

At Freeport: Princeton junior Colby Robbins was in the 2A boys mix at Freeport’s Park Hills Golf Course, seeking his first state berth. He was the second individual qualifier from the Sterling Regional.

LaMoille/Ohio, seeded second, settled for fourth place in the Little Ten Conference volleyball tournament at Paw Paw.

Lexi Loftus had 10 digs and five kills, Erika Zimmerlein had six digs and 10 kills, Riley Johnson 13 digs and six points, and Paige Conner had eight assists and six digs and two kills.

Top-seeded Newark defeated No. 3 Somonauk

Tigers would be Class 4A if playoffs started now

By Kevin Hieronymus khieronymus@bcrnews.com

The Princeton Tigers have become the first team in school history to start 7-0 and have clinched their first playoff appearance since 2003.

If the playoffs started this week, the Tiger would be in 4A, not 3A where they are ranked No. 4. According to the IHSA playoff outlook, PHS stands as the third smallest school in 4A,

Friday Night Rewind which ranges from 545-809.

Class 3A ranges from 408-539.

DuQuoin (545) is the smallest school to have qualified in

4A. Bloomington Central Catholic (546.15) is next followed

by Princeton (547). PHS has an actual school enrollment of 514, but takes in the 34 students from co-op partner Ohio for a football enrollment of 547.

After Friday’s history-setting 21-7 win over St. Bede, Tiger coach Jesse Snyder said, “it’s a great feeling. It’s a credit to the kids and the work they put in.”

Newman (407.55), which had been ranked No. 1 in the 3A

before losing to Princeton, is targeted for 2A, standing ninth among 2A qualifiers. Hall (331) stands 11th among 2A qualifiers.

St. Bede and Erie/Prophetstown, who each received one vote in last week’s 3A state poll, are ranked 19th and 20th, respectively, in 3A. Orion (305 enrollment), which was upset by Morrison Friday, stands 13th among 1A qualifiers.

So far 110 teams have clinched a berth in this year’s playoffs.

There are 146 berths remaining. Princeton’s class will not be determined until the qualifiers have been determined.

• 1989 redux: Some have asked what about the 1989 Princeton Tigers? Didn’t they go 7-0 to start the season?

No, they lost to Rochelle in Week 7 of the 1989 season. Randy Swinford’s squad rebounded strong to win their next five

Their runner-up finish remains as the best in school history.

• Fast start: The St. Bede Bruins came ready to play at Princeton Friday, marching 72 yards in 16 plays to draw first blood on a 3-yard Baylee Hopps score. The Bruins, however, could not sustain their early effort.

“We smacked them in the mouth early and then they smacked us in the mouth — kind of different from last week,” SBA coach Jim Eustice said.

“We just made too many critical mistakes at critical times. We’ve got to get

day, Oct. 20. Unbeaten Normal U-High (21-0-1) is the other No. 1 seed in the Peoria Sectional and Peoria Christian (2-6-1) and Newark are the No. 2s.

Gray believes the whole sectional is pretty wide open “Judging from how the teams played each other

through the season I think a majority of the teams in the sectional are evenly matched,” he said. “It will come down to what team can find strong consistent play through the playoffs.

No one can afford to play a poor match and expect to get through.”

those cleaned up, keep trying to get healthy and we have a big one this week against Orion.”

The Bruins will travel to Orion Friday to tackle a Chargers team feeling the sting of a 20-17 upset loss to Morrison last week.

• New rushing king: Rockford Lutheran senior running back James Robinson set the new state career rushing record during Friday’s 56-19 victory over Byron. Robinson set the new career mark on a 25-yard run on third down with 7:52 remaining in the first quarter.

He now has 8,681 career rushing yards.

Robinson broke the previous record set by Westville’s Caleb Pratt (8,477 yards) from 20042007. He entered the year with 6,584 yards (1888, 2469, 2227) and

has at least three contests remaining in his career to continue to add to the record.

Undefeated Lutheran (996.3 enrollment) could emerge as a potential playoff foe for Princeton should the Tigers remain in 4A. • Where there’s a Will: While on the subject of records, Bureau Valley’s Will Konneck recorded the sixth best rushing performance in state history when he racked up 462 yards with six touchdowns in Week 6 against Sherrard.

The state record belongs to DeAndre Hooper of Chicago Austin, who rushed for 593 yards and six TDs against Chicago Near North on Oct. 19, 1996.
