Riverside Farmer’s Market enjoys best season yet

By DOUG GRAHAM msleditorial@shawmedia.com RIVERSIDE – While other suburban farmers markets have struggled recently, the Riverside Farmer’s Market had its most successful year yet, the market’s lead volunteer Amy Jacksic reported at Thursday night’s Riverside Board of Trustees meeting.

“We continue to be the fastest-growing farmers market in the western suburbs and are a model for others,” Jacksic said.

Jacksic attributed their success to a committed core group of volunteers, a growing group of vendors from farms all around the state and dozens of regular customers who trek to Riverside from all over the Chicago area, just for the weekly market.

Jacksic said the group is committed to repeating their success next year by producing a promotional video for the market, as well as constantly adding volunteers. Jacksic said she welcomes any suggestions the public may have on ways to further improve the market.

Matthew Hendrickson – mhendrickson@shawmedia.com

Corn on display at the last Riverside Farmer’s Market of the season Oct. 2 ley, who also volunteers for the farmers market, said Jacksic herself was an indispensable member of the volunteer team and a big reason for its success. “[Jacksic] has put all of us on her back this year,” Haley said. “She did everything. She posted all the photos onto Facebook and she was there almost every week.”

RIVERSIDE – The ABC television show “Betrayal” continued filming around Riverside last week, Village Manager Peter Scalera reported at Thursday night’s Village Board meeting.

Scalera said the crew for the show, which made its television debut in late September, shot scenes for the show behind Village Hall and on the swinging bridge on Thursday.

The crew also spent time filming at a house on Lincoln Avenue.

Producers filmed along the forest preserve area off and on most of the day Friday.

The show filmed in Riverside previously in August.

It’s Your Money

By Linda Sokol Francis, E.A. ABOUT S CORPORATIONS S corporations are not taxed like ordinary companies. Rather, taxes on their gains and losses are paid by their owners on their individual returns.

For the first time in many years, personal income tax rates for highincome individuals are higher than that on corporations— 39.6 percent vs. 35 percent.

That doesn’t necessarily mean it’s time to switch.

Note that profits of a regular corporation are taxed at the corporate level, and then the dividends enabled by those profits are taxed at the shareholder level. That moves the effective rate way up.

And keep in mind that losses are passed through to shareholders (with some limitations) to offset other income.

When a company is sold, any gains are taxed at corporate income rates, not the better rates an individual pays, and the buyer is more likely to want the assets than the company stock, in order to achieve a higher tax basis.

How Spinal Decompression Works at The ProMED Pain Rehabilitation Institute The ProMED Method™ combined with FDA cleared computerized disc decompression utilized at the ProMED Pain Rehabilitation Institute are considered by many doctors to be the most advanced and successful non-surgical, non-injection treatment of disc and spine conditions. Even when medical, chiropractic, and/or physical therapy did not help.

These proprietary, trademarked pre and post decompression treatment methods allow for much higher success rates versus only utilizing the decompression table because they increase hydration, flexibility, relaxation of muscles and ligaments, improved muscle/core strength, balance, and posture – causing a more effective and lasting treatment.

The clinical results are nothing short of outstanding. Studies conducted thus far have been extremely positive and virtually no side effects. A study published in the Journal of Neurosurgery 81-350-353 1994 suggests that significant negative disc pressures are achieved with decompression. And this is what causes the increased intake of water, oxygen, and nutrients into the vertebral disc area thereby promoting healing of the herniated or degenerated disc from the inside out.

RIVERSIDE – Residents calling village hall in 2014 will have a much better chance talking to a human being because of a new Internet-based phone system that the Village Board approved for purchase at its Thursday night meeting.

Jessica Frances, the village finance director, said the price of installing the new system, $70,213, will be offset by the savings it will net, including a reduction in maintenance and repair costs as well as an annual savings of $7,000, a result of shutting down seldom-used phone lines.

Frances said the village had prepared to spend more for the new system.

“The project will, as a whole, come in $46,000 under budget,” Frances said. “Believe me, I’ve come up with every contingency I can think of so that I don’t have to come back to the board for more money if other costs come up.”

The new system will be installed by Telcom Innovations

Group, which Frances said did an extensive walkthrough with the staff members, who will be using the new system the most, before the village committed to paying them.

Among several features is the ability to add phone lines to the same village numbers on the fly.

Frances said that means during severe weather, a high-volume call time, fewer residents will hear busy signals.

The board approved the new phone system funding unanimously.

Other purchases approved by the board include $150,000 for fuel for village vehicles, $29,796 to Morton Salt Company for rock salt for the winter, $31,680 to SKC Construction to fix cracks in village streets and $202,638 to J.A. Johnson Paving Company for the year’s Street Rehabilitation Program.

The purchases were approved unanimously by the board.

The board plans to discuss next year’s budget further at its Nov. 7 meeting before possibly approving it in late November or early December.

Police find no evidence of shots fired at LT High School

By MATTHEW HENDRICKSON mhendrickson@shawmedia.com LA GRANGE – Police found no evidence of shots fired at Lyons Township High School Thursday evening after a systematic, room-by-room search of the school and its buildings, according to Chief Michael Holub.

LT’s North Campus was put on lock down at 4:10 p.m.

Thursday after a 911 call to police from a staff member inside the school reported possibly hearing shots fired and screaming.

Holub said the first La Grange police officer was on the scene in 90 seconds, followed by support from police departments from Countryside, Western Springs, Brook-

field and La Grange Park. Officers split into five teams and went through the school, but found no evidence that shots had been fired.

“It takes awhile, but it had to be done systematically,” Holub said of the search.

“We’d always rather have you call and have it be nothing than wait.”

Holub said the department regularly drills for such occasions, and in this incident, the training paid off.

Students still on the campus were interviewed and cleared from the school in groups, Holub said. Buses were also brought in to house students while the search took place.

Students were later cleared to walk home or drive home, or get picked up by parents.

Birth follows death of calf born in August In August, a newly born dolphin calf died suddenly at the zoo.

“We know the first 30 days are extremely critical in the calf’s life,” said Rita Stacey, marine mammal curator for the zoo.

The first 30 days account for the largest rate of loss to dolphin populations in both the wild and under professional care, the zoo reported in a news release.

Zoo officials said that Tapeko is an experienced mother, having successfully raised four calves.

Officials called the birth an important moment for the zoo’s dolphins.

“As an experienced mom, Tapeko is able to demonstrate to the younger females how to care for a newborn calf,” Stacey said.

Spree, an 11-year-old dolphin, is also expected to give birth later this fall at the Brookfield Zoo.

Monsters to invade mainstreet for annual Halloween event

BROOKFIELD – The Chicago Zoological Society, which manages the Brookfield Zoo, was pleased to announce the birth of a dolphin calf at the zoo Oct. 16.

The male calf, born to Tapeko, a 31-year-old bottlenose dolphin, weighs approximately 40 pounds and is 3 1/2 feet long.

The zoo temporarily canceled the popular dolphin presentations to allow mother and son time to bond and get to know the other dolphins in the exhibit.

Zoo officials said they were cautiously optimistic after the birth.

Following a birth, it is important for the calf to demonstrate several key milestones, including nursing and slipstreaming, where the calf will rest in mom’s slipstream – a hydrodynamic wake made by the mother as she swims and uses her energy to guide the calf.

Plans made for former YMCA

LA GRANGE – A YMCA facility will not be part of a new development on the site of the former Rich Port YMCA at Ogden Avenue and La Grange Road.

The YMCA of Metro Chicago announced Tuesday it accepted a roughly $9 million bid from Minneapolis-based Opus Development Company LLC for the property. Opus Vice President Jim Caesar said the company’s plan includes a multi-family apartment building, retail space and a parking structure. But, a new YMCA facility will not be part of the deal.

“We kind of waited out the economy a little bit to see if things would get better … to see if we could raise the funds to build a YMCA on that corner,” said Richard Malone, YMCA of Metro Chicago president and CEO. “We’re all very disappointed that that wasn’t in the cards this time.”

Some of the nine bids received included a new Y facility, but none of those offers were economically viable, Malone said. Even if they were, the facility would have only been 10,000 to 15,000 square feet, much smaller than the Y’s goal of a 45,000 to 50,000 square-foot standalone facility, Malone said.

“We were hoping to see a creative solution, and while I think developers tried, obviously they have their own [requirements] to meet,” Malone said. The YMCA occupied a five-story building at 31 E. Ogden Ave. for nearly 60 years before leaving in 2008. The building was demolished in 2010, and the site has been vacant since. An effort to redevelop the property fell through during the recession that began in 2008.

The Y still operates a fitness center at 1100 E. 31st St. in La Grange Park that Malone said will remain open while future options are developed. The center’s lease runs through 2015.

“If conditions change in the future, we hope there would be options for a new Y facility [in the La Grange area],” Malone said.

Caesar said Opus still needs to finalize the transaction and meet with village staff before it’s able to reveal more details about its plans.

He said Opus wants to incorporate the community’s vision into its plan, whenever it takes shape.

“It’s a ways off, but we’re starting with a lot of resources,” said Caesar, who said the company has a few concepts in mind.

“The Opus group is super excited. This is a gem of a site and a tremendous opportunity.”

BROOKFIELD – The two newest members of the Brookfield police force were sworn in during a meeting of the Village Board of Trustees Oct. 14.

The two men, Chris Bandola and Anthony Zeman, were approved by the Board unanimously.

Brookfield Police Chief Steven Stelter stood with each newly-minted officer after they read their officer’s

oaths and introduced them to the trustees.

Stelter said Bandola was a four-year veteran of the Navy and a, “really sharp kid.”

Stelter said Zeman was a lifelong resident who graduated from Riverside-Brookfield High School and a computer genius, which should help the department.

Both men are officially probationary police officers until October of next year, when they lose the probationary title.

POTSCH 40TH ANNIVERSARY Jim and Joan (Gizynski) Potsch from La Grange Park are celebrating their 40th wedding anniversary this month. They were married on October 20, 1973 at St. Valentine’s Church in Cicero, IL. The couple have resided in their La Grange Park home since they’ve been married, the same home that Jim’s parents built before he was born.

Jim and Joan recently returned from a spectacular trip to Europe where they spent a wonderful and busy month traveling to Venice, Budapest, Frankfort, Paris and London, among other cities.

Jim is retired as transportation manager from Kraft Foods and Joan is retired as parish secretary to St. Francis Xavier Church in La Grange where they are parishioners. They enjoy taking ballroom dancing lessons, antique shopping and attending local concerts and theater.

They have one son James (Sharon) Potsch of Des Plaines, and one daughter Jennifer Potsch of North Riverside. They have two beautiful granddaughters.

Congratulations Mom and Dad!

Zombie Walkers out for a good time, not brains

By JOE SINOPOLI jsinopoli@shawmedia.com BERWYN – Mayhem, horror, gore, putrefied flesh and the walking dead, will be Roosevelt Road’s dark passengers beginning at 6:30 p.m. Saturday for the fourth annual Roosevelt Road Zombie Walk and Pub Crawl.

The Roosevelt Road Business Association (RRBA) will partner with Horrorbles, a horror and sci-fi collectibles shop, to sponsor the event, which features zombie makeup, a pub crawl, food and an afterparty.

Participation in the event is $20, which includes admission, make-up and food provided at the FitzGerald’s after-party. Proceeds from the event benefit The Berwyn Historical Society.

Behind all this madness you’ll find John Aranza, who, with his wife Christine Tully Aranza, owns Autre Monde Cafe & Spirits, 6727 W. Roosevelt Road. Aranza is also the owner of Horrorbles, 6729 Stanley Ave., a one-stop shop for everything horrific, from collectibles to posters, models and masks.

Yes, the noted restaurateur is also known for being nuts about scary stuff.

Aranza said that being a member of the Roosevelt Road Business Association and owner of Horrorbles, which was previously located on Roosevelt Road, gave him the idea to combine his interest in promoting the business district through his

“The zombies really get into it. Families join in.

When people are walking down the street, there’s kind of an unwritten rule. Everyone just kind of growls and mumbles; nobody’s talking.”

John Aranza Owner of Autre Monde Cafe & Spirits love for the horrific. Hence the zombies.

“The zombies really get into it,” Aranza said. “Families join in. When people are walking down the street, there’s kind of an unwritten rule. Everyone just kind of growls and mumbles; nobody’s talking.”

Horrorbles will sponsor makeup and costume staging from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. at Culver’s, 6943 Roosevelt Road, and at Wire, 6815 Roosevelt

by attempting to unlock the door and jiggling the door knob. When she opened the door, she said Lyons fell into her apartment and she pepper-sprayed him for protection. He then fell back out into the hallway and she closed the door and called police.

During their investigation, police found that Lyons had been intoxicated and had tried to enter the wrong apartment. Police said the apartment’s resident, who was not injured, wanted to pursue charges. Lyons was charged with disorderly conduct.

8LETTERS More businesses in Brookfield? Where to Park?

To the Editor: The desire of Brookfield to bring more business to Ogden Avenue has a problem that no one wants to recognize and that is: Where are they going to park the cars for their employees and customers?

For years, cars have been parking on the sidewalks and forcing people to walk on the roadway, and never are any of those cars given a ticket. Why? Ogden Avenue is a state road and I wonder if the village is waiting for the state to someday come in and start towing those cars off the sidewalks. Maybe then the village will do something about it.

One more thing, if you have to drive off of Park Avenue on to Ogden, it is hard to see if it is clear of cars coming from the east.

Former Nazareth Academy teacher Dianne Kowal Kirtley speaks during a recent presentation about her new historical fiction novel based on her husband’s ancestors, who were personal attendants to the brother of French ruler Napoleon.

Kirtley, of Western Springs, spent seven years researching and writing “Point of Departure.”

“All of a sudden your life is so terribly uprooted,” Kirtley said.

In the book, as her family travels to Illinois, Charlotte, who’s learned her new country is the land of the free, witnesses a slave auction in Kentucky.

Once in Illinois, Charlotte develops an interest in a half-Native American man, Henry Moreau, which signals scorn from many residents.

Moreau was made up by Kirtley – though the backlash for dating a “half-breed” would, at the time, have been real – and eventually Charlotte meets the man she marries, the great-great grandfather of Kirtley’s husband.

Sound complex? Seven years doesn’t seem like so long anymore considering the web of relationships Kirtley had to recreate, along with her research to make the novel historically accurate.

“I’d read a little bit and then I’d think, ‘I don’t know enough about this,’” Kirtley said. “And then I got two or three more books to read.”

The novel, which ends

WESTERN SPRINGS – The story was too good, so Dianne Kowal Kirtley decided to borrow her in-laws for about seven years.

In 2004, shortly after retiring from 25 years at Nazareth Academy as an English teacher, department chair and a handful of other positions, Kirtley was helping her father-in-law move into a retirement complex when she found papers that linked her husband’s family to Joseph Bonaparte, brother of French emperor Napoleon.

Intrigued, she started to research the connection.

Kirtley soon learned that several of her husband’s ancestors were personal attendants to Joseph Bonaparte’s family.

“Then my interest was really peaked,” Kirtley said.

Her research led her through stacks of books and to places like the library in Avon, Ill., and the bank of the Ohio River.

In January, after seven years of legwork, writing and editing, it all paid off. Kirtley’s first novel, “Point of Departure,” was published, and it now sits on the shelves at local libraries.

The book is a historical fiction version of her ancestral in-laws’ journey from outside Paris to Illinois, two places that, in 1841, couldn’t have been more different.

“Imagine you get raised in this very privileged society in France … and then all of a sudden your parents say, ‘Guess what? We’re moving to this place across the ocean,’” Kirtley said.

The main character is Charlotte Louise Josephine Mailliard, her husband’s great-great grandmother.

Charlotte, educated with Napoleon’s nephews, was 14 when her family left France for Illinois, which was then the country’s westernmost frontier and a place thought to be filled with savage people

Shop at local grocers With the closing of Dominick’s food stores imminent, people in smaller towns like La Grange Park and Brookfield should shop at your local grocer to keep them going. If you don’t have them as a source of sales tax revenue, your town will have severe problems with property taxes and providing services without really hiking the tax dollars.

So please, don’t go to the big conglomerates outside your town. You’re just helping them and their union busting.

Signage rules needed Hi, I’d like to Sound Off about the signage issue in downtown La Grange. I think it’s very important that all the businesses be able to put up signs and advertise their business.

However, I think there needs to be a standard as to the quality of what the signs look like.

La Grange is starting to look like a strip mall. And that’s not what La Grange is. La Grange is a charming, historic village. The people in charge of this need to have some type of quality control on what the signs look like so we maintain the charm of downtown La Grange through the signage.

Restaurant reviews

Take a trip to Polynesia at Chef Shangri-La NORTH RIVERSIDE – To say that Chef Shangri-La takes diners to another world is no exaggeration. When my dining companion and I stepped inside the Asian fusion restaurant in North Riverside, we knew immediately the meal would be far from average.

The interior décor is immersive, and includes Polynesian statuary, woven graphic bamboo paneling, leafy fronds and colorful paper lanterns.

As the hostess greeted us, we were told the venue’s “Island Adventure and Fire Dance Friday,” held the second Friday of each month, was about to begin. Uncertain what to expect, but pleased with the turn of events, we were seated at the restaurant’s communal table and placed our drink orders.

When it comes to island cocktails, Chef Shangri-La does not disappoint. There are an abundance of brightly-colored, maraschino-adorned beverages on the menu.

I chose a Mai Tai, which balanced the aggressive warmth of rum with cool, citrusy lime juice. My companion boldly selected the Volcano, a fruity concoction featuring rum, raspberry liqueur, cran-raspberry juice and grenadine. The cocktails were excellent, but not for the faint of heart. Weak drinks are not an option there.

Unable to select just one appetizer, we placed an order for the combination tray, just as the lights dimmed. Drinks in hand, we settled in to enjoy the show.

The dances were lively and upbeat, and had origins in countries such as Samoa, Tahiti, New Zealand and Hawaii. The performers wore colorful clothing, grass skirts and headdresses, while a host guided patrons through various island traditions, occasionally requesting audience participation.

Somewhere between Tahiti and Hawaii, our appetizers arrived. Highlights included the teriyaki beef skewers and chicken wings.

The skewered beef was superbly cooked, tender in the middle and gently prepared with savory seasoning. The chicken wings were fried to crunchy perfection, drenched in sweet-and-sour barbecue sauce and topped with spicy Sriracha.

For my entree, I ordered the sesame chicken, designated a chef’s signature entree.

It included delicately breaded chicken breast, bok choy, pea pods and an overflowing bowl of gravy. The chicken was well-cooked, and the crispy

green pea pods provided complementary crunch.

My companion was equally satisfied with the spicy Szechwan beef, served with a colorful pile of peppers and onions and a garnish of roasted peanuts.

The portions were heaping, and, as the meal came to a close, everyone at the communal table filled more than one to-go box.

The dancers, too, reached the end of the production,

But even without the performance, Chef Shangri-la creates a rare experience for the suburban diner. And the adjoining Tiki Bar stays open late to extend the pretend Polynesian getaway.

MORE BEARS COVERAGE AT HUBARKUSH.COM

Bears’ D gets a ‘D’ heading into bye week Hub Arkush

The Bears are 4-3 heading into the bye. At this point a year ago, they were 6-1. But it seems a bit of context is called for.

The Bears came into this season with a new head coach and staff; new starters at every position on offense but quarterback, running back, one of the receiver spots and center; and four new starters on defense, including the nickel back.

Their goal was to see dramatic improvement on offense and in quarterback play while holding the line on defense.

Through seven games in 2012, the Bears’ offense was averaging 319.6 yards per game, 124 rushing, 195.6 passing and 31:43 time of possession.

On third down, they were 38 for 95, a

40 percent conversion rate. They had scored 185 points on 21 touchdowns, and piled up 51 penalties for 352 yards.

This year, they are averaging 367.7 yards per game, 112.9 rushing, 254.9 passing and 29:16 time of possession.

They are 30 for 83 on third down, a 36.1 conversion rate. They have scored 213 points on 25 touchdowns and have been called for 31 penalties for 273 yards.

Last year after seven games, Jay Cutler was completing 58.1 percent of his passes, had 1,545 yards for a 7.19 average, nine touchdown passes and eight interceptions. He was sacked 25 times for 175 yards lost, and he had a 78.9 passer rating.

In 2013, Cutler is completing 64.9 percent of his throws. He has 1,658 yards for a 7.4 average, 12 touchdowns, seven interceptions, only 10 sacks for 71 yards and a 91.7 rating.

The offense is significantly improved, and head coach Marc Trestman, offensive coordinator Aaron Kromer and their staff deserve a B+ or A-. Third down efficiency and time

of possession are the only concerns.

Unfortunately, the defense is a completely different story.

In 2012 through seven games, the defense had allowed 131 first downs.

It was 31 for 91 on third down, a 34 percent efficiency rate. It allowed 77.9 yards per game rushing and 238.1 yards per game passing for a total of 316 yards per game. The Bears’ defense piled up 23 sacks for 155 yards in losses, had 16 interceptions and forced 16 fumbles, recovering seven. The unit allowed nine touchdowns and 100 points.

This year, the Bears have given up 147 first downs, are 39 of 88 on third downs, a 44.3 percent conversion rate.

The defense has given up 117.3 yards per game rushing and 273.7 yards passing for a total of 391 per game. They have only nine sacks for 66 yards, 10 interceptions and have forced 15 fumbles, recovering eight. They’ve allowed 23 touchdowns and 206 points.

Having allowed more than twice as many points as a year ago, Trestman, defensive coordinator Mel Tucker and

ON NOW End of Year Pricing Now thru Oct. 31st!

their staff get a D. All that separates them from an F is the fact that they are somehow 4-3.

Unlike the offense, where all the key players have shown improvement, on defense Lance Briggs and Charles Tillman are the only players playing as well or better than they did last year.

There is tremendous concern that the playoffs are out of reach, with Cutler and Briggs joining Henry Melton, Nate Collins and D.J. Williams with serious injuries, but that is premature. If Josh McCown can play like he did in Washington until Cutler gets back, and veterans Julius Peppers, Corey Wootton, James Anderson, Jennings and Tillman can play to their abilities, there is hope.

With St. Louis, Minnesota, Dallas, Cleveland and Philadelphia still on the schedule, in addition to Baltimore, Detroit and two with the Packers, there are plenty of winnable games left.

The biggest questions are how soon can Cutler and Briggs get back, and what will Trestman do until they do?

fore the injury (14 carries for 77 yards), and there is a possibility that time has caught up with the 10-year veteran.

5. Tom Brady, QB, Patriots: ADP: 27/TP: 92/PPS: 13.1

9. Andre Johnson, WR, Texans: ADP: 31/TP: 54/PPS: 7.7

7. Roddy White, WR, Falcons: ADP: 34/TP: 10/PPS: 2.0

Despite 48 catches and 584 yards, Johnson has failed to score a touchdown. He has suffered from shin problems and bad quarterback play.

Other than Matt Ryan, Atlanta has been a fantasy disaster. White is the disaster’s poster boy. He has the fewest points (8) of any of the first 35 players drafted. White has been dealing with ankle and hamstring issues and was inactive in Week Seven.

8. Chris Johnson, RB, Titans: ADP: 17/TP: 63/PPS: 9.0 Johnson has averaged 30 yards rushing over his past four games, and he does not have a single rushing touchdown this season. He is gaining a paltry 3.2 yards per carry. The only thing keeping him from being higher on the list is the fact that he has two long receiving touchdowns.

6. Steven Jackson, RB, Falcons: ADP: 16/TP: 17/PPS: 8.5 Six weeks is a pretty long time to be out with a hamstring injury, but Jackson hasn’t played since Week Two against St. Louis. He wasn’t lighting the world on fire be-

Would you believe that Eli Manning and Geno Smith have more fantasy points than Brady? It’s true. In fact, 20 quarterbacks have outscored Tom Terrific, which means – unless you play in a 21-team league – Brady should be on your bench.

4. Doug Martin, RB, Buccaneers: ADP: 2/TP: 52/PPS: 8.7 So you drafted Martin with the No. 2 overall pick, eh? Because the “Muscle Hamster” is currently the 88th highest-scorer in fantasy, it’s probably safe to label him a disappointment.

3. Ray Rice, RB, Ravens: ADP: 7/ TP: 45/PPS: 7.5 Traditionally one of fantasy’s more reliable running backs, Rice is averaging just

2.8 yards per carry. He has scored three rushing touchdowns.

2. CJ Spiller, RB, Bills: ADP: 5/TP: 42/PPS: 8.4 Picked second in many drafts, Spiller has been a bust.

He has one touchdown and triple that number in fumbles.

Not only does he trail 33 running backs in fantasy points, he’s not even the leading fantasy back in Buffalo.

1. Trent Richardson: ADP: 10/TP: 47/PPS: 6.7 Richardson tops the list due to the fact that he has been healthy all year and has disappointed for two teams.

He played the first two games of the season with the Browns.

He scored no touchdowns and rushed for less than 60 yards in both. Since joining the Colts, he has scored two touchdowns. His best performance came against Jacksonville when he managed just 60 yards on 20 carries.

About halfway into the fantasy season, certain patterns have emerged. It’s becoming clear that several players who were projected to have monster fantasy seasons are not going to live up to their 2013 expectations.

Let’s take a look at the top 10 busts and what triggered the disappointing results.

About the list: To be considered a Top 10 Fantasy Disappointment, a player must have had an aggregate draft position in the top 35 using the CBS Sports fantasy football website for reference.

In a 12-team league, JonesDrew was likely selected in the late-second or early-third round. It might seem unfair to pick on a guy who is on such a lousy team, but MJD has produced on bad teams in the past. He has only two touchdowns and has not smelled 100 yards all season.

Swift success

Riverside-Brookfield sophomore QB making strides as starter

By DAN SANTAROMITA dsantaromita@shawmedia.com RIVERSIDE – Ryan Swift’s hectic season is a bit symbolic of the season as a whole for the Riverside Brookfield football team.

The sophomore was thrown into the starting quarterback spot after senior Jack VandeMerkt sustained an injury in Week 3. Even after VandeMerkt returned to the active squad, Swift remained the starter.

“It was a little hectic, but during the offseason I trained a lot so I was prepared,” Swift said.

Swift started playing quarterback the same way he earned the starting job at RB. In eighth grade, his team’s starting QB got hurt and Swift consequently made his debut at the position.

Originally, Swift was a tight end and defensive lineman, and even played that role with RB’s varsity team before moving to quarterback.

After finishing out that eighth grade year at quarterback, Swift played his first full year under center last fall on the freshman team.

RB coach Brendan Curtin described Swift as the type of athlete that had to be on the varsity squad regardless of position.

At 6-foot-2, 205 pounds he has a big body for a quarterback.

Despite relatively little experience at quarterback, Swift is drawn to the importance of the position.

“I know when it comes down to if we lose, it’s my fault and nobody else’s,” Swift said. “I like that part of it.”

One of Swift’s favorite players is Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck,

Bill Ackerman - backerman@shawmedia.com

Riverside Brookfield quarterback Ryan Swift (right) takes the snap and looks to hand it off in the Bulldogs’ game against Nazareth on Friday. and Swift cited a play from college where Luck forced a fumble after a defensive player recovered a fumble from his running back as a highlight.

That kind of toughness is something he wants to show on the field. Curtin said Swift

is “a force” when he runs with the ball.

Three plays into the Week 4 game at Gary West Side, Swift had to come in for the injured VandeMerkt and guided the offense to a 49-point outburst. That proved what Curtin has said

all season: Swift is calm, cool and collected under pressure.

The hardest part of moving to quarterback was learning everyone’s responsibilities on offense.

“Just making sure I have all the play calls down and all the signs,” Swift said.

“Making sure I know what everyone is doing while still having time to read the defense.”

After a tough loss to area rival Nazareth last Friday, Swift and the 1-7 Bulldogs close out the season on Friday against Fenton.

RIVERSIDE – After winning five games last season and failing to make the playoffs, seniors like Robbie Brindley made sure the Roadrunners would make the playoffs this season.

Naz’s defense put in another impressive performance in a 41-0 win at Riverside Brookfield on Friday. It gave the Roadrunners their all-important sixth win of the season to clinch a playoff birth.

“A bunch of kids worked in the offseason and wanted that goal,” said Brindley, a defensive back for the Roadrunners. “I’m just happy right now that we finally accomplished it.”

The defensive unit earned its second shutout of the season to follow up on strong showings against prolific offenses from Benet and Notre Dame. Other than a pair of outliers when Marist and Joliet Catholic scored 42 points each on Naz, the Roadrunners haven’t allowed 20 points in a game.

“We play aggressive,” Brindley said. “We always play together. It’s not one kid on the defense who is a complete five-star recruit, but we always play together as a team and just fly to the ball.”

Naz has won four straight since losing to Joliet Catholic 42-0 in Week 4. Brindley described the lopsided loss as a fluke, but the Hilltoppers have emerged as the leader

Nazareth’s Julian Love (center) finds running room in the open field during the Roadrunners’ 41-0 win over host Riverside Brookfield on Friday. in the East Suburban Catholic Conference thanks to Naz knocking Notre Dame and Benet from the top of the conference standings.

The dominant win over RB came despite four first half turnovers. Naz still went into halftime up 21-0 and put the game away with a pair of scores early in the third quarter.

With a playoff spot secured, the Roadrunners can improve their playoff seed in Class 5A. To earn a home game in the first round they would need to beat 2-5 Marian Catholic

in the season finale Saturday and get some help from 7-1 and 6-2 teams projected to be ahead of them in the seeds.

If the IHSA groups the 5A playoffs into geographical quarters like last year, the Roadrunners could see undefeated teams like Montini, Sycamore, Rich Central and Glenbard South early in the playoffs.

Joliet Catholic, Bremen and Kaneland are also 7-1 teams with talented squads.

After playing in the ESCC, Naz won’t be afraid of anyone.

Friars’ defense shuts out De La Salle SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA

Fenwick’s football team bounced back from its lone defeat of the season by shutting out De La Salle 20-0 in what was essentially Chicago Catholic White title game Saturday night. Both teams entered with undefeated records in the CCL White, but Fenwick proved to be the better team with a dominant defensive performance.

Richard Schoen had most

of Fenwick’s big plays with a punt return for a touchdown, a 37-yard TD reception and two interceptions. In addition to passing for the score to Schoen, quarterback Gino Cavalieri ran in a 13-yard score for the Friars. All the scoring came in the first half.

The Friars (7-1, 3-0 CCL White) can seal the outright league title with a win over St. Laurence (4-4, 1-2) on Saturday.

The Trojans took a 13-0 halftime lead. Tyrone Neal got West on the board with a 65-yard fumble recovery for a touchdown in the third quarter. North scored twice more before the Panthers got on the board again.

Quarterback Dennis Bryant Jr. hit Byron Jackson for a 40-yard touchdown pass to cut the lead

to 27-14, but the Panthers didn’t score again.

Hales Franciscan 56, St. Joseph 0 The Chargers were shut out for the third time this season and took the biggest defeat since the season opener.

St. Joseph will finish the season 2-7 after winning by forfeit this weekend against St. Francis de Sales, which dropped its varsity schedule in Week 4.

Bulldogs looking for winning touch in playoffs

By DAN SANTAROMITA dsantaromita@shawmedia.com The volleyball postseason begins on Monday for all classes. Nazareth may have the best team in the area, but also has the toughest draw.

Elsewhere, Riverside Brookfield and Lyons Township are hoping to pull off upsets to win a regional. Other area teams begin play next week with the hopes of starting a long postseason run to Redbird Arena in Normal, home to the state finals for all classes.

Riverside Brookfield Regional: Proviso West Sectional: Morton First match: 7 p.m. Tues., Oct. 29, vs. No. 7 Whitney Young Outlook: Riverside Brookfield has some impressive wins this season, but has struggled to play that well on a consistent basis.

RB has two tournament titles on its resume, but finished 16th out of 24 teams at the Maine West Pumpkin Tournament over the weekend against a strong field.

The Bulldogs handed Metro Suburban Conference leader Timothy Christian its only conference loss, but entered Tuesday’s MSC finale against Ridgewood with a 6-5 league record.

The up and down play earned the Bulldogs the No. 10 seed in the Class 4A Morton sectional. If they can get past No. 7 Whitney Young in a regional semifinal, No. 2 Downers Grove North would likely await in the final.

Seniors Amanda Lelivelt and Monica Kasper have led the attack and will be keys to RB’s playoff success.

Nazareth Regional: Timothy Christian

Sectional: Coal City First match: 7 p.m. Tues., Oct. 29, vs. No. 3 Montini or No. 6 St. Joseph Outlook: The Roadrunners have had a memorable regular season. They have already surpassed the 20-win mark and are in the top half of the ultra-competitive East Sub-

urban Catholic Conference.

Despite that, Naz’s path in the playoffs is about as hard as it gets. The Roadrunners were drawn into arguably the toughest regional in the state.

Naz was assigned to the Class 3A Coal City sectional and instead of seeding the entire sectional, the IHSA separated each regional for geographical reasons.

As a result, five 20-win teams are all in the Timothy Christian regional. Heading up the group is defending Class 3A champ St. Francis.

Naz comes in as the No. 2 seed. No. 3 Montini already has over 25 wins and Wheaton Academy and Timothy Christian also have over 20 wins on the season.

Youngstown State commit Samantha Brown leads the team in kills and junior Julia Saunders has also been a dangerous weapon for the Roadrunners. Both will be counted on as Naz tries to get to the sectional.

Morton Regional: Morton Sectional: Hinsdale South First match: 7 p.m. Mon., Oct. 28, vs. No. 16 Jones Outlook: The Mustangs entered Tuesday’s conference finale against Proviso East with an 0-5 record in the West Suburban Gold and could have a tough time stringing together wins in the playoffs.

If No. 17 seed Morton gets past No. 16 Jones from the Chicago Public League in the Class 4A regional quarterfinal, the Mustangs will then take on Glenbard South. The Raiders are the top seed in the sectional.

Morton last won a regional in 2004.

Lyons Township Regional: St. Ignatius Sectional: Morton First match: 7 p.m. Tues., Oct. 29, vs. No. 11 Downers Grove South or No. 21 Simeon Outlook: Hampered by injuries to four main contributors, the Lions have had an up and down regular season.

Coach Joann Pyritz is hopeful that the returns of Hannah Juley and Jessi Skonning will boost the team’s playoff chances.

Both players returned over the weekend during the Maine West Pumpkin Tournament. The Lions were seeded eighth in the 24-team tournament and placed sixth.

Juley, a junior setter committed to Wisconsin, injured her foot during the first week of practice and made her season debut over the weekend.

Skonning, a junior outside hitter, suffered a concussion during the season.

“We’ve had a little bit of a slow start this year, but we’ve had four injured players,” Pyritz said. “Everybody had to mix it around and play some different positions.”

Senior Alex Hojnar has stepped up as the team’s top offensive threat with all the injuries.

“Hojnar has done a nice job as a senior leader, in particular on the floor,” Pyritz said.

The revitalized Lions earned the No. 5 seed in the sectional and could see No. 4 St. Ignatius in a regional final.

Fenwick Regional: St. Ignatius Sectional: Morton First match: 6 p.m. Mon., Oct. 28, vs. No. 20 Curie Outlook: The Friars have struggled in the incredibly tough East Suburban Catholic Conference this fall.

Fenwick entered Tuesday’s conference finale at Bishop McNamara with an 0-7 record in the ESCC. The No. 13 seed Friars will play a regional quarterfinal against Curie on Monday. If Fenwick can extend its season with a win, No. 4 seed and regional host St. Ignatius would await in a regional semifinal the next day.

Senior middle hitter Samantha Pethokoukis, a Western Springs resident, is committed to Siena and will lead the Friars’ in the playoffs.

Riverside Brookfield’s Olivia Gyssler serves the ball during a match against Timothy Christian on Oct. 10. Gyssler and the Bulldogs open postseason play on Tuesday.

St. Joseph Regional: Timothy Christian

Sectional: Coal City First match: 7 p.m. Mon., Oct. 28, vs. No. 3 Montini Outlook: Like Nazareth, the Chargers are in the bru-

tally tough Timothy Christian regional.

It’s not often a team with more than 25 wins in the regular season has to play a regional quarterfinal, but that’s the resume of St. Jo-

seph’s opponent, Montini.

St. Joseph holds the No. 6 seed in the six-team regional. The winner takes on No. 2 Nazareth, another talented team with more than 20 wins.

SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA

His younger brother, Jon, tied for 19th by shooting a 153 (76-77). Jon, a junior, will be the Lions’ most experienced returner next fall.

In Class 2A, Nazareth senior Andrew Dobis scored a 153 with rounds of 77 and 76 to tie

for 10th at Weibring Golf Club at Illinois State University.

LT girls take sixth Ciara Rattana led the Lions with a 156 to tie for 16th individually as the team placed sixth in Class AA.

Senior Sarah Donahoe (168), Michele Siamis (170), Melissa Marston (173), Jameson Mitchell (173) and Macy Tabachka (178) also competed at the tournament, which took place at Hickory Point Golf Club in Decatur.

The mother and son team make up Higgins Glass Studio, 33 E. Quincy, entrusted to the Wimmers to carry on the art crafted by their long time mentors, Fran and Michael Higgins, who began the company in 1948.

Louise and Jonathan agree that it was Fran’s ideas and Michael’s energy and ingenuity that led these two huge talents to start their work out if their Chicago apartment in 1948.

Over the years their art sold in such major retailers as Marshall Field’s, Georg Jensen and Bullocks Wilshire, the very high end store in the California based department store chain.

In 1966, the Higgins decided to return to private studio work and set up their offices in Riverside. The website notes that “here they were free to set their own goals, meet their own standards and design in the direction their hearts and minds led them.”

There’s a lot of history in Higgins, and the Wimmers are proud of their work and the company.
