No state budget impacts services Stiles: ‘We are afraid we will not be given the money that is due to us.’

By Goldie Rapp grapp@bcrnews.com

PRINCETON — Despite Illinois being in its fourth month without a budget, many social service providers continue to do business, holding their breath that eventually there will be a budget and they’ll get reimbursed.

But just how much longer can these services operate without their funding? It seems to be the question of the year and was a topic of discussion at last week’s Bureau County Board meeting.

Diana Stiles, director of BuEComm (Bureau Emergency Communications), reported on the financial struggles they have been facing with a financial loss since 2008.

As she and the Bureau County ETSB (Emergency Telephone System Board) work to find a solution to keep E-911 services in the county afloat, Stiles said BuEComm is dealing with a more current pressing issue — that being the state working without an assigned budget.

BuEComm averages about $20,000 a month from the state, but since April, BuEComm has not received

any payments from the state.

Stiles said she has gone to Springfield and tried to lobby that 911 money is not tax money, but rather a charge collected from residents’ phone bills.

Without a state budget, there is no appropriation bill to release 911 funds, therefore the money is just sitting at the state. Stiles said as long as the money sits there the government can use it for other things, and without an appropriation bill there is no guarantee BuEComm will receive any of the back money they are due, which at this point is in the range of around $120,000.

“We are afraid we will not be given the money that is due to us,” Stiles said.

BuEComm does have reserves they can survive on

Taming the flames Princeton Fire Department issues burn ban due to dry, windy conditions

By Eric Engel eengel@bcrnews.com

PRINCETON — A burn ban is in effect until further notice for the city of Princeton, as well as the Princeton Rural Fire Protection District, which covers the area surrounding the city.

The lack of summer rain has produced abnormally dry conditions in the area, and 30 to 40 mile per hour winds are in the forecast; so the Princeton Fire Department made the decision to implement the burn ban in order to keep local citizens safe.

“Due to the abnormally dry conditions, we’ve issued the burn ban until further notice, but once conditions improve, we should be able to lift it,” said Princeton firefighter Matt Boughton.

Boughton mentioned there are open burn ordinances

Neponset man digs up World War II dog tag and finds a deep friendship in the process ​By Eric Engel eengel@bcrnews.com

NEPONSET — The metal detector gave a mighty shout, something magnificent had been found. It wasn’t a coin or a rusty nail, but a sliver of history beneath the ground. The excavator knew the soldier not, but in every victory we play our part, so he found the woman who loved the

man and hung his tag around her heart.

In late September 2015, Neponset native Jim VanStaden got his hands on a friend’s metal detector and decided to check out his backyard for buried treasure. After finding some pocket change and aluminum foil remains, VanStaden honed in on something under the branches of an old pine

Pictured is the World War II dog tag of Air Force glider pilot Lawrence W. Wilt, as the middle initial of T is actually incorrect. The dog tag was buried in a Neponset yard for what could have been decades until Jim VanStaden found it with a metal detector and presented it to Wilt’s 92-year-old wife, Ila Wilt.

tree. Digging into the dirt, VanStaden uncovered something he couldn’t believe — a single dog tag from a mysterious World War II soldier, Lawrence T. Wilt.

VanStaden and his wife, Sentrallia, stepped past their euphoria and into a militant responsibility to find Wilt and return his dog tag. Their Internet searches of Wilt’s military identification number flooded them with information of a daring air corp soldier dressed in a saint’s uniform. To their disappointment, the VanStadens learned “Larry” Wilt had passed away in 1989, yet their escapade had just begun.

It was discovered Wilt had lived in Hennepin, and often stayed with his sister, Katherine Cinnamon, at the house in Neponset in which the VanStadens currently reside. Through the grapevine of conversation and interaction with Wilt’s sister, Ila Weddell, VanStaden learned Wilt’s wife, 92-year-old Ila Wilt, was living at Heartland Healthcare in Henry.

Through the assistance of Ila Weddell, the VanStadens arranged to visit Ila Wilt.

On Sept. 30, 2015, the 75th anniversary to the day of Wilt’s enlistment into the military, the VanStadens walked into Ila Wilt’s room with a gift that money can’t buy.

“She was just speechless at first, and her eyes watered up a little bit because she doesn’t have a lot of Larry’s things,” VanStaden said, speaking of the moment he placed the dog tag in Ila Wilt’s palm. “My wife and daughter went with me (along with Ila Weddell), and Heartland hadn’t told her anything about it; so we just went into her room and surprised her with it.”

VanStaden said Ila Wilt was in awe during the unexpected reunion, and his concerns over her responsiveness quickly subsided, as they sat and conversed about Larry’s life, sharing bits and pieces of their own in the process. It became instantly evident Lawrence Wilt was a man worth his weight in silver.

“Jim just came in with the dog tag and said he had something for me, and when he handed it to me it was really unbelievable,” Ila Wilt said, joking that Larry was “probably wrestling some girl under the tree” when he lost the dog tag. “It just keeps going on and on, like he’s never going to die. Somebody’s always bringing something up about him.”

Ila Wilt said Larry was an Air Force glider pilot from 1940 to 1946, and after her first husband passed away, Ila’s friends oftentimes invited her to go dancing, where she swung into Larry’s arms. After their relationship grew past the simplicities of friendship, Ila spent a winter in Arizona contemplating her future with Larry.

When she returned, her decision was easy.

“He was just a kind spirit who always had a smile on his face; a good friend to everybody,” said Ila Wilt, mentioning her husband was a man of natural growth who loved to garden. “He’d raise the biggest vegetable garden, and the local grocer would say, ‘If you need anything and I’m not here, just go up to Larry Wilt’s.’”

Neponset native Jim VanStaden

Ila Wilt holds the World War II dog tag of her husband, Lawrence Wilt, at her residence at Heartland Healthcare in Henry. The 92-year-old woman was presented with the relic after a Neponset man, Jim VanStaden, found it in his yard while messing around with vant’s disposition, Wilt was a member of a metal detector. the Lions Club and his church board, as well as the recipient of Hennepin’s first Citizen of the Year Award, which is now named after Wilt in honor of his commitment to the community. Ila Wilt said Larry, whose middle initial is actually W for William instead of T as it reads on his dog tag, would do anything asked of him without question, a rare human quality indeed.

“He only lived in Hennepin for eight years, but you should have seen the funeral,” Ila Wilt exclaimed. “Some people move into a community and you wouldn’t even know they were there, but he moved in and just took over, got things moving.”

Ila Wilt plans on sending the dog tag to Larry’s grandson down in Kansas City, Mo., and voiced her gratitude concerning the chance encounter with “such a nice young man” and his beautiful family.

VanStaden said the metal detector uncovered more than a dirty dog tag, but a historical entryway to newfound friendships. His curiosity over the mysterious whereabouts of the second dog tag is eating at him a bit, and he might “take a bulldozer” to his backyard in an effort to unearth it. Regardless, VanStaden will carry with him the significance of the moment, as if he always knew the soldier himself.

“This was just a way for me to say thank you for his duty to his country and everything he’s done for his community.”

Dinner in Walnut raises money for Chromebooks The Rotary Club of Walnut served pork chops, brats and hot dogs Saturday, Oct. 17, at the Veterans’ Memorial. The lunch was a fundraiser to help buy Bureau Valley Chromebooks.

Mautino works to crack down on violence against service members SPRING VALLEY — Convicted criminals who purposely target uniformed members of the military would face tougher prison sentences under legislation backed by state Rep. Frank Mautino to classify intentional attacks against members of the armed forces as hate crimes.

“Men and women serving our country should not have to fear being attacked because of the uniform they wear,” Mautino said. “We must work to prevent a tragedy like Chattanooga suffered this summer from occurring in Illinois, and if the unthinkable happens, make sure those responsible get the punishment they deserve.”

Mautino is co-sponsoring House Bill 4308 to increase penalties against those who attack uniformed military personnel and veterans wearing symbols identifying their service.

Under the bill, targeting individuals for crimes because they wear military uniforms would be considered an aggravating factor by courts during sentencing. The legislation comes in response to the deadly shooting in Chattanooga, Tenn., in July at two military centers that left four U.S. Marines and a Navy sailor dead.

Under current Illinois law, hate crime designations are extended to persons based on actual

or perceived race, color, creed, religion, ancestry, gender, sexual orientation, physical or mental disability, or national origin. If Mautino’s bill becomes law, those convicted of committing hate crimes against service members or veterans would face up to three years in prison.

“This legislation sends a message that we will not tolerate targeted and hate-filled violence against our military,” Mautino said. “Prosecutors would have the ability to put away criminals who attack service members and veterans for a longer period of time and help prevent further tragedies from taking place.”

for a little while, according to Stiles.

But she said depleting on them can be risky as those monies are what BuEComm falls back on for system upgrades and maintenance needs.

“If we use our reserves to pay wages and overhead at the PSAP (public safety answering point), then what do we do when it’s gone and there are overhead costs and we have no money to fund them?” she questioned.

Bureau County Board Health Department Chairwomen Loretta Volker also spoke at last week’s meeting about how the state funding issues are effecting the Bureau/Putnam Health Department.

Volker said the health department is also facing some hardship with late state payments and not receiving some payments that were due back around springtime.

“Since we have, over the years, joined with other groups and grown, we have various grants coming in that we can manipulate and some savings, but we hold our breath all the time,” she said.

Despite the issues with late state payments, the Bureau/Putnam Health Department has moved ahead in signing a contract with Marshall County Health Department.

Marshall County will now receive services through the Bureau/Putnam Health Department.

“We had successful negotiations.

A contract has been set for Marshall County to be included in services,” Volker said.

The ordinance restricts burning on Mondays and Fridays, with burning permitted on all other days between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m.

Recreational bonfires not exceeding 5 feet in length, width or height are usually allowed with a permit issued by the fire chief at least five days in advance following inspection of the area. The fuel for a bonfire must be dry, seasoned firewood, but according to Boughton, the burn ban supersedes any normal burn ordinance because in these conditions, a fire

can spread easily and get out of control very quickly.

Keenan Campbell, director of Bureau County Emergency Management Agency (EMA), said the burn ban was enacted at 8 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 18, and the EMA acts as an extension of the fire department in advising the public of the burn ban through social media outlets.

“The National Weather Service in the Quad Cities has issued a Red Flag Warning for extreme fire condition, which is not common,” Campbell said, citing wind speed, humidity, temperature and crop fuel percentage as factors the National Weather Service measures in determining the safety of conditions.

Princeton citizens should avoid outdoor burning until conditions are determined safe, and

should always be aware of the following measures concerning open burning in the city of Princeton: • Avoid burning that causes a public nuisance.

• Keep fires at least 25 feet from any vehicle or structure, and burning on public property is prohibited.

• All fires must be attended by a responsible person with a fire extinguisher readily available.

• Smoke must not obstruct the view on a street, sidewalk or railroad track.

• Open burning of garbage — food, food scraps, food packaging, diapers, construction debris, tires or materials containing asbestos — is always prohibited.

Rezin legislation to keep two ICCB programs afloat during budget impasse SPRINGFIELD — State Sen. Sue Rezin (R-Peru) filed legislation that would keep two Illinois Community College Board (ICCB) programs going during the state’s budget impasse.

Senate Bill 2188, filed this week, appropriates $18.5 million in federal funds for career and technical education and $24.5 million in federal funds for adult education.

If passed and signed into law, ICCB would then have the authority to spend these federal dollars on the programs.

“Without this piece of legislation, these two programs are in danger of shutting down,” Sen. Rezin said. “This will keep the career and technical education and adult education programs afloat until the programs can receive all of the funding they deserve through the passage of a balanced budget, something that needs to happen as soon as possible.”

Rezin spoke to leaders at Joliet Junior

College during a recent state hearing on higher education on their campus. Rezin says these programs are two very critical pressure points higher education is facing right now.

“Earlier this summer, the legislature passed a federal spending bill with bipartisan support, so I am confident we can get this legislation passed very soon,” Rezin said. “The entire situation, however, underscores the importance of passing a balanced budget for our state, one that makes fundamental reforms to state government and one that will help create jobs, boost the state’s economy, and put our state on a path of good fiscal policy.”

Sen. Rezin is hopeful this legislation remains a stand-alone bill during the legislative process to allow these federal dollars to be passed through to the ICCB. The Illinois House and Senate return to Springfield Oct. 20.

Roy Atherton

GLENDALE, Calif. — Joan Farley Mandell, 76, formerly of Princeton, died Friday, Oct. 9, 2015, at her home in Glendale, Calif., after a brief battle with brain and lung cancer.

She was attended by her husband, Robert Mandell; her sister, Judy (Farley) O’Brien of Princeton; and “son” Josh Burton. Joan is also survived by her daughter, Marissa Rafter; son, Sean (Teresa) Burton; and Joan Mandell one niece, Erin O’Brien (Roger Johnson).

Joan graduated from Princeton High School, class of ‘56, and attended one year at the University of Illinois. At the tender age of 18, she moved by herself to Los Angeles, Calif., where she established a successful advertising agency.

LASALLE — The Illinois State Police (ISP) announced the results of Nighttime Enforcement patrols (NITE) held during the late evening hours of Friday, Oct. 2.

The patrols were conducted in LaSalle County by ISP District 17 officers.

The following citations were issued during the patrols: There were two written warnings issued for registration offenses; two citations issued for driver’s license offenses; three citations issued for occupant restraint offenses; two arrests made for driving under the influence offenses and one arrest for other alcohol/ drug offenses.

There were 19 total citations/arrests made and 36 total written warnings issued.

Alcohol is involved in nearly 40 percent of fatal crashes in Illinois. NITE patrols are designed to keep roads safe by removing alcohol-impaired drivers. However, when other violations are observed such as driving with a suspended or revoked license, operating a vehicle without a valid registration or insurance or safety belt violations, enforcement action may be taken.

From the editor’s desk I absolutely love this fall weather — brisk mornings, sunny afternoons and evenings which start out a bid mild but quickly turn cool. It’s sweatshirt and hoodie weather. A dear friend and I always jokingly say we like this kind of weather, so we can wear those over-sized sweatshirts and hide all of our body flaws.

Ha. Funny but true.

With the cooler weather, the leaves in Bureau County and beyond are sure beginning to turn colors and ultimately fall, pirouetting to the ground like ballerinas in a full-scale ballet. The sight of them always makes me kind of melancholy, as they take their last breath and fall gently to the ground.

Terri Simon I hope you’ll take some time this fall to take a drive and see the fall colors.

Raking leaves is a chore, I know, but when the kids, the grandkids, the neighbor kids squeal with delight as they jump into big piles of those crunchy leaves, it kind of makes it all worthwhile and reminds me of a place in time when those big piles of leaves were our last hurrah before Mother Nature and Jack Frost entered the picture.

When it comes to burning those leaves, be sure to follow your own municipality’s rules about when you can and cannot burn. Also, some windy days have accompanied this cooler weather, so please use common sense before lighting that match. Even a small pile of leaves can turn into a disaster when the wind is just right. Let’s have a safe fall season.

••• Last Thursday, we held our annual Women of Distinction Awards luncheon at The Barn at Hornbaker Gardens. Wow! What a fabulous day! It was so much fun, and the facility was beautiful, not to mention the great luncheon served to us by Kramer’s Catering of Princeton. That white chocolate raspberry cheesecake made just for us by Mary Kramer was phenomenal!

Anyway, the day was a big success, as we honored this year’s Women of Distinction — Linda Gustafson and Janice Wamhoff of Princeton; and Kathy Jo Lindner, Betty Jean Pappas and Denise Etscheid Sabotta of LaSalle; and Sen. Sue Rezin of Morris. All six ladies spoke to the crowd, and they were such an inspiration to all of us. If you see these ladies out and about, please let them know how much you appreciate their efforts.

Our keynote speaker, Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan, was absolutely fantastic. Not only was she an engaging and accomplished speaker, she was so friendly and took it upon herself to personally meet most everyone in attendance. I was fortunate enough to sit by her during lunch, and I think the thing that struck me most was that she is real — she put on no facades and was quite entertaining. I’m sorry if you missed her speech. It was one that will influence me for a long time.

Thanks to everyone who submitted a nomination form for Women of Distinction. It’s so great to know there are so many deserving women out there.

••• Congratulations are in order to the folks of Spring Valley and all the towns which feed into Hall High School, as the facility hosted a ribbon cutting ceremony and open house this past weekend. What a beautiful school! It is so impressive, and I applaud those who had the vision and worked tirelessly to make this dream a reality. Those are some lucky students and staff who will walk those halls of education. If you see the folks out and about who were instrumental in making this dream come true, please give them a well-deserved pat on the back.

••• Halloween is on its way. It won’t be long now.

Watch the Bureau County Republican for trick-ortreat times in your hometown.

••• Fall seems to be a busy time of year, but please make sure you take time for yourself and those you love. Go visit your mom and dad, your grandparents.

Take time; don’t be in a hurry. Call them every day.

There will come a time when you will wish you can.

Have a great week, and remember ... you are important to me and the BCR. BCR Editor Terri Simon can be reached at tsimon@ bcrnews.com.

My life as an Army wife I’m a few months into this Army wife life, and I’m learning to take it one day at a time. I think I know most of what is going on around me, apart from the Army language comprised entirely of acronyms. Up until moving here, I had thought I understood most English. Listening to my husband speak Army is like listening to those crazy calculus formulas I generally tuned out in school.

Apart from the acronyms which weave their way into a mesh of incomprehensible and incomplete sentences, I would like to think I’m adjusting well to Army life.

I’ve finally succumbed to constant home invasion of Army gear.

I tried shoving all the Army equipment and bags into one closet and was almost crushed by the oncoming landslide of green. However, since then I’ve been forced to accept our house will simply have to have a camouflage decor because army bags, radios, tabs, bullet proof plates and plate holder vests are shoved into every nook, cranny, closet and drawer of this house.

When it comes to the tough stuff of living life as an Army wife, I fortunately remain ignorant and inexperienced. So far all I’ve picked up is that the role of an Army wife is one of determined perseverance and a day-by-day lifestyle. We live

Zita Ryan COMMENTARY

day to day because these are the days we have together. Planning holidays and get-togethers is nearly impossible because the only thing set in stone is Army orders.

I have found a constant appreciation for the here and now because to think about the future means to think about deployments. The “D” word is often breached in preparation for the time when I will be here alone for months on end.

However, while he continues to try and prepare me to live on my own, I consider the days beyond the lonely nights. Worse than the fear of him being gone is the apprehension of who he will be when he returns. If he returns.

This apprehensive nervousness may never dissipate until our days in the Army are done. However, it may also be a simple symptom of living as a novice Army wife.

Each soldier is required to fill out a Death Packet, which is the Army’s version of a will and testament.

Going through this packet with my new husband was the single worst

moment of this new married life we share together. We talked our way through each question with signatures provided here and there to verify our thorough understanding of the horrific subject material. We worked our way from funeral costs to what songs should be played at the service. The terrible reality of my possible heartbreak and broken future was spelled out in front of me in that nasty little contract. I was forced to consistently remind myself it was just a piece of paper in order to keep from shredding the thing. Unfortunately an additional Death Packet is required prior to any and all future deployments.

In time, however, these packets should become second nature.

After we’ve made it through a few of these packets, they will become nothing more than a tedious formality and a little piece of paper.

I may not know much about Army life yet, but the one thing I have learned is that today is a beautiful day. There is no point in worrying about the future. Whatever comes will come, and we will face it when it does. And in the meantime, I’m just lucky I really like the color green.

Fauss will perform at Princeton Coffeehouse PRINCETON — Ronnie Fauss, an alternative country singer-songwriter from Texas, will perform at the Princeton Coffeehouse at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 24. The coffeehouse is located at Open Prairie United Church of Christ, 25 E. Marion St. in Princeton.

Doors open at 7 p.m.

In 2012, Fauss released his first full-length album, “I Am the Man You Know I’m Not.” Positive reviews came from regional and national outlets like The New York Times (“songs as catchy as they are memorable”) and Vanity Fair, which called Fauss’s style “a cross between Steve Earle and Gram Parsons.” Fauss released Built to Break, his second album, last year.

Musically inclined his whole life, Fauss has made his living, for the most part, in another realm. Since 1999, he has been an accountant for the Dallas Mavericks.

Providing for a family (he is married with three children) and recognizing the struggle that is for many, Fauss has woven themes of everyday survival into his songs. His recent album ends with “Come on Down,” a song about factory workers, farmers, and the very rich who benefit from the labors of people at the grassroots.

“I’m not a blue-collar factory worker but in a sense, the song is autobiographical,” he recently told The Dal-

While Fauss writes and performs some soulful tunes, others are straight out exuberant with loud guitars and rapid-fire drums, as in his truck-driving anthem, Eighteen Wheels. Beyond his day job, Fauss is very much part of the Dallas alt-country music scene.

Bureau Valley VisionCare is the sponsor of the Ronnie Fauss show.

Admission to the Princeton Coffeehouse is $15 at the door. Fair trade coffee, tea and homemade desserts will be available. The coffeehouse offers traditional and modern folk, blues and bluegrass music, monthly August through May. For information, visit www.theprincetoncoffeehouse.com or call 815-8726501.

IVCC performance set for Oct. 27 Topic focuses on domestic violence OGLESBY — The IVCC Theatre Department launched an important performance this October for Domestic Violence Awareness Month.

Under the direction of theatre instructor David Kuester, the cast’s presentation tackles issues of domestic violence, specifically how a victim must jump through many hoops to get the help they need once they make the decision to get out of a violent situation.

The performance depicts a victim jumping through agency hoops in

a circus-like scene and being tied up with red tape.

The cast will perform in five counties for various shelters, help agencies and government agencies.

“It’s one of those rare opportunities where the performing arts becomes a teaching tool, and we are honored to have been chosen by Freedom House of Princeton to take this message to the agencies gathered at each performance,” Kuester said.

“We’re also grateful for the grant from the state to produce this important presentation, and we’re humbled our theatre department was cho-

sen to create and perform the sobering message,” he added.

Staging is by Don Grant Zellmer, with additional staging by Matt Boehm.

The cast includes students, faculty and community members: Kimberly Burrow, Yvette Lucas and Karen Faith Foltz-Lesman of LaSalle, Zach Scarbrough of Bureau, Jake Jakielski and Reilly Jaeger of Marseilles, Ashley Hurst of Peru, and Zellmer and Boehm.

A public IVCC performance and follow-up discussion led by representatives from Freedom House will be at 4 p.m.

Bobcats end Tigers’ regional reign

By Kevin Hieronymus khieronymus@bcrnews.com

MOLINE — When the end was near, Tanner Kuhne went to classmate Isaac Salazar and gave him a lasting hug.

The only two seniors on the Princeton Tigers soccer team took part in three straight regional championships, but would be denied a fourth.

Top-seeded Somonauk ended the Tigers’ regional reign, claiming a 3-1 overtime victory in the championship match of the Rock Island Alleman Regional on Saturday, Oct. 17.

“I hugged him and I couldn’t hold it in. He’s been with me four years and I couldn’t thank him enough,” Kuhne said.

Princeton kept its hopes alive late in regulation in the 71st minute.

Nolan Frank took a corner kick from Jayden Pinter and scored in heavy traffic in front of the Bobcat goal to tie the game at 1.

“I think that was the result of us working really hard and lots of pressure, and the ball fell right to Nolan Frank and he poked it in. Got really excited there for a while,” PHS coach David Gray said.

The game was sent to extra play,

It only took the Bobcats four minutes to break the tie when Luke Enders threaded the needle to the upper right corner over Salazar.

“When you’re shooting like that, you got two choices. You go upper post, upper 90 on the near side or you go all the way to the far post,” Somonauk coach Dave Erasmus said. “The way the keeper has been playing, he’s been picking everything off. (Enders) went upper 90 and he just didn’t get his hands up in time. He was too close.”

John Johnson put in a clinching blow for the Bobcats with an unassisted goal in the 96th minute in the second overtime.

Kuhne said it was like the final dagger. He said going into overtime was a tough task for the Tigers and their lack of depth.

“If you look at our bench, we have two subs. When you go that extra 20 minutes, it’s hard to keep up

Tigers in rare company with conference championships

By Kevin Hieronymus khieronymus@bcrnews.com

When it comes to conference championships at Princeton High School, they have come few and far between when it comes to football.

The Tigers clinched just the third conference championship in school history and their first in 29 years by defeating Erie/ Prophetstown Friday. The Tigers stand 5-0 heading into the final week of play and own the head to head tie-breaker over second place Sterling Newman (4-1).

Senior quarterback Jake Reinhardt said the Tigers will be playing the Sherrard game like “all the rest we’ve done so far so

Friday Night Rewind we can take conference straight up and complete a perfect regular season.”

No Princeton team has ever finished 9-0, let alone start the season 7-0 and now 8-0.

PHS last won a conference title in 1996, claiming the old 1986 Southwest crown. Max Gaumer’s Tigers went 4-1 in league play, losing only to Rock Falls.

With a win Friday over Sherrard (0-8), the 2015 Tigers would become just the second undefeated conference champions ever assembled at PHS, according to BCR research. The only other Tiger team to accomplish that feat was 1984 with a 5-0 run in NCIC Southwest, sweeping the likes of Hall, Kewanee, Mendota, Rochelle and Rock Falls.

Princeton won a third NCIC championship in 1942, according to BCR files, but had to later forfeit all games when it was discovered a team captain was over age. The 1942 Tigers went 6-1-1, losing only to Kewanee and tying Rock Falls.

They got a goal early, and we could never muster pressure in the overtime.”

Erasmus, who is retiring at the end of the season, his 13th as Somonauk coach, didn’t know Princeton had won three straight regionals, but was not surprised.

“They’re a good team.

That’s why they win those things,” he said. “It was a good game. It was mostly clean. We played them earlier in the year and we played them tougher this time than the last time.”

Gray said one of the difficult things is saying goodbyes to the seniors each year.

“Every year, unless you’re the state champ, you’re going to have to give that speech and it’s never the speech you want to give,” he said. “It’s hard any year, but when you only have a couple of seniors it really makes it harder, because it’s more personal and you build a close relationship. Those two guys really worked hard and provided the leadership all year. I was telling them we’re not going to be able to replace them, we’re just going

to have to move pieces around and make them fit different.

“Obviously, Isaac passed the career saves this year and Tanner’s going to be pretty high on the career goal, too. We’re not going to be able to fill those shoes, we’re just going to have to find a different way to play.”

• Notes: Somonauk (185) advances to the Peoria Christian Sectional to face the host Chargers at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday at the Eastside Centre in East Peoria.

Somonauk seeks its second sectional title in three years. It finished second in state in 2006. Peoria Christian defeated DePue 5-1 in Friday’s regional finals in Peoria. Normal U-High and Serena meet in the first semifinal Tuesday starting at 4:30 p.m.

• TV time: PHS coach Jesse Snyder and Tigers Jett Wedekind, Jacob Smith, Chaz Williams and Reinhardt went to the WQAD studios in Moline to take part in Channel 8’s Sports Extra, which aired Sunday and Monday nights.

Reinhardt called it “an awesome, great experience and a way for news people to show their appreciation, and it’s really nice for Princeton High School’s football program to get some exposure.”

• Moving up: Princeton is now being classified in 3A by the IHSA in its weekly playoff outlook review.

PHS had stood as the third smallest school in 4A, but with another week of teams dropping out of the picture, the enrollment range for 3A has increased from 414-559. The cutoff

14 passes. He said their hard work in practice pays off when it comes to the passing game.

“We worked hard every practice. We have a certain period for passing,” he said. “Our receivers are so good on getting open, they’re so good on catching the ball, it makes it easier on me. Just know all the concepts where they’re going to be. I’ve been with them for four years, so kind of have that connection.”

Reinhardt said he didn’t know he was 13 of 14 when the game was over. But he sure remembered the one incompletion when he was kidded about it.

“Skye was coming across on a post, I didn’t really see him. I just tried to throw it up,” Reinhardt said.

On the season, the Tiger QB has completed 71 percent of his passing, making good on 77 of 109 attempts.

Erie/Prophetstown (4-4) and St Bede (4-4) remain hopeful in 3A, but face must-wins against Hall and Newman, respectively.

Bureau Valley (307) is being classified in 1A. But even with a win over Morrison, the Storm (4-4) may not have enough playoffs points (combined wins by opponents) to get in. They have just 28 with only three more guaranteed.
