‘Person of interest’ questioned in Joliet auto body shop slayings

By BRIAN STANLEY

bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – The two people discovered slain Wednesday inside a Joliet auto body shop were beaten to death.

Michael R. Oram, 48, of Joliet, and Jamie L. Wills, 43, of Lockport, both sufferef “multiple blunt force trauma to the head,” according to the Will County Michael Coroner’s Office, which R. Oram performed autopsies Thursday.

An employee at Fleet Specialty Painting and Auto Body made the grisly discovery about 11:45 a.m. Wednesday.

Roechner said it does not appear Oram and Wills were killed in a robbery.

Employees at neighboring businesses said the body shop has “loose, but regular hours” and has been operating for more than 40 years.

A man who has been inside the building said there is a small office at the Cass Street door with a storage area behind it.

A garage that can fit about six vehicles needing body work is to the east of the office and a paint shop of the same size is at the rear of the building. The business does not have surveillance cameras, according to police reports.

Roechner said Oram’s father owns the body shop. Facebook posts identified Wills as a girlfriend of Oram’s and said she originally is from Anneta, Kentucky.

New attempted murder charges for Joliet man acquitted in August 2012 slaying

By BRIAN STANLEY

bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Police said a Joliet man acquitted on murder charges last year tried to kill two men early Tuesday.

Daeviontae D. Pruitte, 22, has been charged with two counts of attempted murder, two counts of aggravated battery with a firearm, two counts of aggravated discharge of a firearm, possession of a firearm by a street gang member and unlawful use of a weapon by a felon, according to doc- Daeviontae uments filed Thursday in D. Pruitte Will County court.

At 12:19 a.m. Tuesday, Pruitte and another man pulled up in a car outside Bernard Marble’s residence on Marcella Avenue in Joliet Township, got out and opened fire, according to Will County sheriff’s police.

Marble, 28, was outside conducting a drug deal with Damon Stonislaus, 33, who was sitting in a parked car, police said.

Joliet Deputy Police Chief Al Roechner said investigators learned a Bourbonnais man “may have been a witness or involved with” the slayings and went to the address listed for the man on pa- Jamie L. role records Thursday af- Wills ternoon.

The man’s family said he had not been living there for some time and he was tracked to a hotel in Chicago Heights, according to Roechner.

“He initially did not want to come out of the hotel room to speak with officers, but did so about 3:30 p.m. and will be brought back to the station for an interview,” Roechner said.

Sheriff’s spokeswoman Kathy Hoffmeyer said detectives believe Marble was Pruitte’s target and Stonislaus was “in the wrong place at the wrong time.”

Marble was shot multiple times and taken to Presence Saint Joseph Medical Center before being airlifted to Loyola Medical Center in Maywood. According to police reports, Marble may be paralyzed from a spinal injury he suffered in the shooting. Stonislaus drove away from the scene and was later treated at a hospital for a wound to his abdomen and questioned by police.

Neighbors gave sheriff’s police a vehicle description and a car was stopped by Joliet police an hour after the shooting.

Pruitte and another man were taken into custody for questioning.

The other man was released Wednesday without being charged while Pruitte was held on a warrant for a theft last month from the Sony warehouse in Bolingbrook. Pruitte, who was employed at the warehouse, was seen on video taking another employee’s cellular phone from a locker, according to Bolingbrook

police.

On Aug. 1, 2012, Timothy L. Egner, 54, was shot to death in his car outside Wendy’s, 104 N. Center St. in Joliet. Joliet police found Pruitte running in the street the next evening while carrying the gun lab tests showed was used to kill Egner.

In July 2015, Pruitte was tried on murder charges but Judge Carla Alessio Policandriotes ruled his possession of the weapon was not enough evidence to link him to the slaying because he also was stopped and searched by sheriff’s police a short time after Egner was killed.

Marble testified last month against Christopher Thompson, who was charged with fatally shooting Gerardo Franchini Aug. 13, 2013, inside Louis’ Restaurant in Joliet. Thompson was convicted of murder and faces at least 45 years in prison.

During pretrial arguments, Thompson’s defense lawyers noted Marble received probation in his own drug case and the Will County State’s Attorney’s Office had paid his expenses to move from the area in exchange for testifying against Thompson.

RECONNECTING CHICAGO STREET Downtown development plan expected to boost Joliet business

By BOB OKON

bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Reconnecting Chicago Street can’t come soon enough for Mike Trizna, co-owner of Chicago Street Bar and Grill.

“We’ve owned this place for 11 years, and 11 years ago I asked people if they could do something to make it happen,” Trizna said.

About 30 years ago, a small section of Chicago Street was blocked off to create a parking lot for the Will County Courthouse. The plan did create a parking lot that has been there since. But it also diverted traffic off Chicago Street just before motorists would have reached the heart of the downtown business district.

Proponents say reconnecting the street would bring back needed traffic, especially for startup restaurants and

“When the courthouse closes, it’s dead down here. The foot traffic down here at night is dead – even on weekends.”

Thomas Moreno The Blue Taco owner

other entrepreneurial businesses that tend to open in the struggling downtown area.

“We’re doing – knock on wood – quite well,” Trizna said. “But you can never have too much business or too much visibility.”

Reconnecting Chicago Street has been the focus of downtown redevelopment plans for years. Joliet officials have made the job the top priority from the latest downtown plan, and the city has targeted construction to start in fall 2017.

Much has to happen before that, including the city acquiring the needed property from Will County. But city officials are confident enough that they are preparing to hire an engineering firm to begin planning the job.

Next door to Chicago Street Bar and Grill is The Blue Taco.

Owner Thomas Moreno has been in business less than three years and said the restaurant could use the added exposure that a reconnected Chicago Street might bring.

“When the courthouse closes, it’s

dead down here,” Moreno said. “The foot traffic down here at night is dead – even on weekends.”

Ironically, the closure of Chicago Street accompanied a plan to increase pedestrian activity downtown. Sidewalks were widened, planters were added and Chicago Street itself was narrowed. Joliet, like many cities that saw stores exit downtown areas in the 1970s, wanted to create a pedestrian mall environment that would compete with the new indoor malls.

James Roolf, president of the First Midwest Bank’s Joliet Banking Center, which is headquartered downtown, said he remembers how busy downtown was in 1974 when he first came to the city.

“Downtown had the Kline’s Department Store and Penney’s and Sears and

D-210 board OKs dismissal of teachers

By FELIX SARVER

fsarver@shawmedia.com NEW LENOX – The Lincoln-Way Board of Education approved dismissal and reduction in force of teaching staff at Thursday’s board meeting.

The approval follows a public hearing on the administration’s proposal for a reduction in force of 28 full-time equivalent teaching positions and five retirees who will not be replaced.

Superintendent Scott Tingley said the reductions would not take place at one school but across the district.

After closed session, the board voted to approve the dismissal of permanent substitutes at the close of the school year. Three names were read and the board approved the motion.

The board then approved the reduction in force and honorable dismissal of teachers at the end of the school year, with only board member Christopher Lucchetti abstaining. Board member Christopher Kosel read 31 names from a list.

Karen Town said during public comment if district finances had been handled properly, the teachers would not be facing this tragic circumstance.

She asked if cuts were considered first to nonteaching positions and cited her research on salaries for athletic directors, aquatics director and auditorium director.

“I am asking the board to do some research like I did. … Ask the administrators if they’re making proper decisions in their hiring and unfortunately

in letting some teachers go,” she said.

Public comment

More critics of the district spoke at public comment. Lee Talley was one of them, as he took issue with the transparency of the board and administration.

Talley asked why the district was not pursuing criminal charges against former superintendent Lawrence Wyllie and Ronald Sawin, assistant superintendent of business, for financial restitution.

He requested Tingley and Sawin resign in the next 30 days. If not, he asked the board to remove and reassign both or suspend them with pay until they can be terminated with just cause.

“We will never know the complete

truth about this district until you clean house,” Talley said.

Board reorganization

Lucchetti joined the board Thursday. He was one of two applicants the board appointed to replace two members who resigned in January.

The board reorganized, with Dee Molinare assuming the responsibility of board president. The board then unanimously approved Christine Glatz as vice president and Kosel as board secretary.

Molinare said Lucchetti and board member Kathleen Casey will be cochairs of the finance and building committee, Kosel will be the District 210 advisory committee representative and Glatz will be the foundation liaison.

Community invited to taste students’ kids’ meals

By FELIX SARVER

fsarver@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Joliet Township High School students gave the community a taste of what they believe could be a signature menu item for the 2016 race season at Chicagoland Speedway and Route 66 Raceway.

The kids’ meal the students created were offered at the “Cooking for a Cause” fundraiser Thursday at the Joliet Central High School students center. Visitors came to taste the meals and vote on them; the winning selection is expected to be announced in a few days, and it will appear on the 2016 Chicagoland Speedway and Route 66 Raceway concessions menu.

Since September, 40 students from Central and West campuses worked with teachers and Chicagoland Speedway’s concession partner, Levy Restaurants, to create a menu item for this year’s race season, District 204 officials said in a news release.

The four kids’ meal nominated were Tiger Tenders and Pizza Dog from West and Pigs in a Blanket and Pit Stop Pizza Fries from Central.

“They’re all terrific,” Chicagoland Speedway President Scott Paddock said, who was among the many at Thursday’s fundraiser tasting each meal.

Levy Restaurants has partnered with culinary arts students at District 204 to give them experience with coming up with innovative ideas for menu items. The program allows students to gain real-life experiences in not only culinary arts but marketing sales, community outreach, event planning and

They also learn how to use creative thinking and problem solving.

“These are all skills we in the business community deal with every day,” Paddock said.

Aaryss Stallings, a Central student, said he came up with the idea for Pigs in a Blanket, which is a hot dog wrapped in a croissant and includes nacho cheese.

He said it was a meal his mother used to make.

The Pit Stop Pizza Fries included fries, cheese, homemade tomato sauce and pepperoni. Central student Daisy

Gonzalez said her team wanted to make sure the meal was not soggy.

“We wanted it to go with the race and name it something catchy,” she said about the meal.

The Pizza Dog included a hot dog, pepperoni, cheese and marinara sauce with a bun. West student Tyler Campbell said he wanted the meal to appeal to children and be able to be mass produced.

The Tiger Tenders was chicken tenders breaded in corn dog batter. The meal was offered at the fundraiser with honey mustard and ketchup. West stu-

dent Kaylie Duke said her team chose the meal because children like corn dogs.

District 204 Superintendent Cheryl McCarthy recommended visitors also look out for the boxes the students designed for the food.

“Not only are these kids great chefs, but they blew me away with their artistry,” she said.

Proceeds from Thursday’s fundraiser will benefit Vilaseca Josephine Center and MorningStar Missions, both chosen by students, district officials said.

ARI court program needs help to fill funding gap

By LAUREN LEONE–CROSS

JOLIET – Will County’s specialty court coordinator, Julie McCabe-Sterr, asked Will County leaders Thursday to help bridge the gap for the Adult Redeploy Illinois program until a cashstrapped Illinois can follow through on its promised $203,000 that diverts highrisk offenders away from prison.

State-funded alternative court programs are designed to dramatically cut down on the number of nonviolent offenders in prison through rehabilitation, but Adult Redeploy Illinois state grant dollars are being held up because of the political gridlock in Springfield.

Will County Executive Committee Chairman Jim Moustis asked Thursday that the request be assigned to the county board’s Judicial and Finance committees for review. He also asked McCabe-Sterr to compile local data showing how much the county saves through the program.

“We made a commitment to [the chief judge] that when we opened this program, we would see these people through.”

McCabe-Sterr – who has been heavily involved with alternative court treatment for years – became emotional at one point Thursday while addressing board members.

“I do not like to spend a dime more than I have. ... I don’t just send people to training because we have money in the training fund. I don’t try a bunch of curriculum because I have money in curriculum,” McCabe-Sterr said. “I try to be fiscally responsible with the money you have entrusted me.”

awarded her the grant, she hired three full-time and one part-time staff member for ARI court, but funding to pay for those positions never arrived. Without funding, she may have to lay off staff and reduce services, she said.

Will County has 82 participants who were assessed and given an individualized treatment plan involving targeted therapy, counseling and other services with a goal of reintegration into society.

McCabe-Sterr said Kane County was forced to shut down its state-funded Adult Redeploy Illinois specialty court program in December because of a lack of state grant dollars. Cook County may be faced with a similar fate if Illinois fails to get its act together soon, she said.

McCabe-Sterr said she will do what it takes to keep this program afloat. Illinois has saved about $70 million since the program’s inception in 2011, she said.

program, we would see these people through,” she said after the meeting.

Will County Assistant State’s Attorney Mary Tatroe said the county can’t subsidize the state’s shortcomings for long.

“We don’t want the state to start to perceive this as a situation where Will County is able to fund this so they are not going to give us this grant funding,” Tatroe said. “I’m hoping they’ll see ... we’re trying to hold this together until [Illinois] reimburses us.”

Franciscan Learning Center closing

By BOB OKON

bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – The Franciscan Learning Center, an early development program started in 1979 by the Sisters of St. Francis Mary Immaculate, is closing.

The school administration announced last week to parents that the school will close after the “Sunshine Sunday” end-of-year ceremony June 5.

Sister Carol Jander, a co-director who has been with the program since it started, said it has become the victim of changing times in which working parents of preschool children seek day care programs with different hours and services than the center provides.

“We have been a developmental program, which means we actually did teaching for students ages 3, 4 or 5,” Jander said. “Parents today seem to want day care. They want to drop their children off early and pick them up later in the afternoon. This is not something we have ever done.”

Jander said enrollment in the

school has been as high as 84. Currently it is 33.

When registration for the next school year stood at 14 in February, school officials decided to close the doors. The program needs about 40 students to be financially sustainable, Jander said.

The Franciscan Learning Center board made the decision to close at a March 2 meeting and informed parents the next day.

The March 3 letter to parents described the closing as “a very painful decision but a realistic one. We are grateful to all who have been part of the Franciscan family and who have supported the Learning Center with their time, talents and treasures through the years.”

The Franciscan Learning Center opened in August 1979 in a wing of what was then St. Francis Academy, a girls high school also started by the Joliet-based sisters.

When St. Francis merged with Joliet Catholic High School in 1990 to form Joliet Catholic Academy, the Learning Center needed new space.

JOLIET – The Rialto Square Theatre board has called a special meeting for Monday to discuss contract renewal for General Manager Randy Green.

The general manager’s contract is the one item listed on the meeting’s agenda, which will be at 4 p.m. in the theater administrative office at 15 E. Van Buren St. Joliet City Councilman Pat Mudron, the council’s liaison to the Rialto, said he learned of the meeting by email but believes it is being held because Green wants an early renewal of his contract.

“I know his contract was coming up at the end of the year. He was interested in getting it settled early,” Mudron said.

Green was the subject of public scrutiny during the controversy over a new marquee that had to be scrapped mid-construction because of opposition to the design. But he has had public support from the Rialto board, which commended him for his composure at City Council budget meetings during which one council member grilled Green while questioning city funding for the theater.

Learning Center raised money and even helped construct the building that now houses the program at 1734 Theodore St. on the grounds of the old Guardian Angel orphanage, another program started by the sisters.

The Guardian Angel property was sold two years ago to the University of St. Francis, which will move its nursing college to the site.

Jander said uncertainty about how the USF move will affect the Learning Center might have contributed to declining enrollment.

“I think there are some parents who got a little nervous when they heard the university bought this land,” she said. “We’ve had people talking about it.”

A USF spokeswoman could immediately not be reached Thursday for comment.

Despite the decision to close, Jander said the success of the institution over the course of 37 years has been a positive influence.

“I think we made an impact in the Joliet community,” she said. “We’ve had a lot of children who have been successful after they left us.”

SHOREWOOD

SHOREWOOD – The Shorewood Village Board approved Tuesday a $30.11 million budget for the 2016-17 fiscal year.

The village budgeted $30.11 million in total expenditures and $28.52 million in total revenue.

Major changes in expenditures from last year’s $29.9 million budget include a $500,000 increase in the general fund, a $4 million decrease in the capital improvement fund because of capital out-

lays, and an almost $2 million increase for the new Lake Michigan water fund.

The largest changes to last year’s revenues include an almost $500,000 increase in tax revenue, a $6 million decrease in the capital improvement fund due to debt proceeds from the new water tower, and $2.61 million in revenue to the new Lake Michigan water fund.

“Operationally, there is not a big change for us,” Finance Director Anne Burkholder said, noting that the operating fund is balanced. “There are a few positions – the IT position that we’re hoping to add in the fall and an

THE HERALD–NEWS JOLIET – Troy School District 30-C substitute teachers are getting a pay raise starting next school year.

The pay rate for substitute teachers will rise from $105 to $115 per day, according to a news release from the district. Substitute teacher associates’ pay will rise from $72 to $80 per day.

“We trust [substitute teachers] to work with our most valuable assets – our children,” Human Resources Director Paul Schrik said in the news release. “The qualities we look for in a good sub are that they are caring, enjoy working with children, are flexible and appreciate a dynamic work environment.”

Substitute teachers don’t have to come from a teaching background, according to the news release. Substitutes can be retired community members, those in the workforce who have some weekdays off, or stay-at-home

To fund the project, the board floated a referendum in the April 2015 election to grant Shorewood home rule status, allowing the village to raise the sales tax by 0.75 percent.

The referendum passed, and the village has been progressing on the plan.

The additional sales tax revenue going to the Lake Michigan water fund is expected to be $1.66 million.

Also, the capital improvement fund saw a drop in revenues and expenditures due to construction completion of the new water tower, which is coming off the books.

Burkholder said there are no plans to increase taxes beyond the 0.75 percent sales tax increase that took effect Jan. 1.

Among the few major changes for the village budget is the creation of the Lake Michigan water fund for the village’s plan to switch its water source from groundwater to Lake Michigan.

Due to concerns about future aquifer depletion, trustees voted to pursue a pipeline extension that would bring Lake Michigan water to the village.

Will County to appoint three members to defunct Greenfield Sanitary District board

By LAUREN LEONE–CROSS

lleonecross@shawmedia.com

JOLIET – The Will County Board is expected to approve at its meeting next Thursday three appointments to the largely defunct Greenfield Sanitary District.

It will likely be a short-lived gig, however, as the appointments are part of a procedural move to simply dissolve the board, said Nick Palmer, chief of staff

for Will County Executive Larry Walsh Sr. The last known member of the small governing board that ran the sanitary district died about 10 years ago.

It’s the latest development in the city of Joliet’s quest to recover $197,000 owed from the district. The city treats sewage coming from houses in unincorporated areas of Joliet Township, such as the Greenfield neighborhood, and charges for its services.

But it’s been years sine the city has received payment from residents of the Greenfield Sanitary District. City officials said last year they were not sure anyone is running the system or even collecting bills from district homeowners. The city has threatened the Greenfield Sanitary District with litigation.

Not knowing who else to bill, the city sent a letter to residents telling them

they collectively owe $197,000 to the city of Joliet.

Residents Bob Gaddy, John Gavin and Roger Williams were selected to join the board, according to county documents. The full County Board will consider the appointments March 17.

The board’s dissolution would allow the city of Joliet to eventually take over the district.

Allocation of Parental Responsibilities and Parenting Time SPONSORED BY

By Megan Einsele During a dissolution of marriage proceeding, parents of minor children have to make difficult decisions regarding whether both parents will be responsible for making decisions regarding the children’s health, education, religion, and extracurricular activities, as well as, the amount of time each parent will spend with the children. In order to make a decision in the best interests of the children, the court will often send the parties to mediation in order for the parties to discuss these issues. However, when the parties are unable to reach an agreement, the court will allocate parental responsibilities and parenting time after considering the best interests of the minor children.

It is presumed by the Court that both parties are fit parents and the Court will not place any restrictions on either party’s parenting time, unless the

Court finds that a parent engaged in any conduct that seriously endangered the child’s mental, moral, or physical health or that significantly impaired the child’s emotional development. If the Court makes a finding that a parent seriously endangered the minor child, the Court can order such measures as a reduction of parenting time, elimination of parenting time, or supervised parenting time.

When determining the amount of parenting time each party shall have with the minor children, the Court will not consider any conduct of a parent that does not affect the parent’s relationship with the child, such as whether the parent is current in their payment of child support.

ple who are coming to the Rialto, the library and other places downtown.”

Roolf and others say people unfamiliar with downtown Joliet can be baffled by the street layout, including the many one-way streets.

Not having a direct route from Interstate 80 to his Chicago Street store doesn’t help, said Frank Kula, who with his brother, Mark Kula, owns Kula Jewelry & Loan.

Continued from page 3 Barrett’s Hardware and Turk Furniture,” he said. “Downtown had all that, and I shopped at those stores.”

First Midwest Bank in the next year plans to move from its existing downtown location to a new spot on Chicago Street. The bank had to move anyway,

since it has sold its current building to Will County, which plans to use the site for a new courthouse. But Roolf hopes a Chicago Street location will prove more valuable once the street is reconnected.

“I think opening up Chicago Street to what it was when I first came to Joliet would be important for downtown,” he said. “It opens it up to people who are here already. But it opens it up to peo-

“When we try to give people directions from Orland Park or Mokena, it’s very difficult giving directions coming off I-80,” Kula said.

Kula said the Chicago Street reconnection is “long overdue,” especially for a city that tries to bring people downtown.

“If we are trying to attract people from out of town,” he said, “we should make it easier to come here.”

STATE BRIEFS Illinois universities worry about future without budget

SPRINGFIELD –University officials painted a dire picture of the state of higher education in Illinois on Thursday, telling lawmakers that the failure to pass a budget is leading to layoffs and students considering going elsewhere for an education.

“We’re on the verge of dismantling the higher education system in Illinois,” James Applegate, the director of the state’s Board of Higher Education, told the Senate Appropriations Committee, which was hearing funding requests from various institutions. Lawmakers are in the odd situation of considering funding requests for the next budget year, which begins July 1, while the state continues to limp along without a budget for the current year.

There’s no end in sight to the budget stalemate between Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner and the Democrats who control the Legislature.

Higher education institutions haven’t received state funding in nine months and are facing cuts because Illinois is dealing with a multibillion-dollar deficit.

CPS sues former CEO for $65M

CHICAGO – Chicago Public Schools on Thursday filed a lawsuit seeking $65 million from its former chief executive, who pleaded guilty to helping steer millions of dollars in no-bid contracts in return for kickbacks.

In addition to Barbara Byrd-Bennett, the lawsuit filed in Cook County Circuit Court also names Gary Solomon, co-owner of SUPES Academy, and his business partner, Thomas Vranas, who are accused of arranging to pay Byrd-Bennett $2.3 million in exchange for steering $23 million in no-bid contracts to the company.

Speaker faces challenger amid state budget furor

By IVAN MORENO

The Associated Press CHICAGO – Jason Gonzales stands out among the longshot candidates who have dared attempting to unseat powerful Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan, who has handily won his southwest side Chicago district every two years for almost four decades.

Gonzales has a Harvard degree. He has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars to compete in the now-majority Latino district. And his candidacy in Tuesday’s primary comes at a time Michael when circumstances Madigan might favor a challenger: Voters are frustrated at state government’s ongoing paralysis amid a budget deadlock between Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner and the Madigan-led Democrats, Jason plunging Illinois further Gonzales into debt every day.

“We need some serious disruption if we’re going to survive as a state,” said Gonzales, 42, who has not run for office before. “We gotta face the facts, we gotta face the situation that we’re in. And Speaker Madigan has helped put us in that position.”

But Gonzales still faces extremely long odds. His fundraising pales in comparison to Madigan’s multimillion-dollar war chests, and he’s up against Madigan’s record in a district where voters don’t necessarily hold him responsible for the state’s overall mess.

Rauner and other Madigan critics see the speaker as an entrenched defender of unions and other special interests responsible for the state’s financial crisis. Madigan portrays himself as a defender of middle class families and workers who need the state’s vital services.

Gonzales is not just taking on the country’s longest-tenured statehouse speaker; he’s taking on the head of Illinois’ Democratic Party.

Madigan’s aides allege Gonzales was put up to run by Rauner and the Republicans who have contributed to his coffers. He denies that, and in turn questions why two other Latino candidates registered for the primary race minutes after he registered his campaign at the deadline – Joe Barboza, 40, and Grasiela Rodriguez, 39.

Neither Barboza or Rodriguez has raised any money, neither has a campaign website, and their homes are devoid of any political materials advertising their candidacy. Neither returned calls for comment. Gonzales suspects the two were registered to split the district’s Latino vote.

Madigan spokesman Steve Brown denies that Barboza and Rodriguez are plants. He attributes Gonzales’ accusations, which mirror what others have raised in the past, to not having a solid platform.

“You do that when you really don’t have much of a basis of support. You do that when you don’t have many good ideas,” Brown said.

Gonzales has raised nearly $222,000 himself and also is getting help from Illinois United for Change, which has spent nearly $363,000 supporting him and another $238,000 opposing Madi-

gan, according to the Illinois Campaign for Political Reform. A pro-Rauner group, Illinois Opportunity Project, has pitched in $20,000 to that group, but $320,000 has come from Blair Hull, a wealthy Democrat who unsuccessfully ran for the U.S. Senate in 2004.

By comparison, as chairman of the state’s Democratic Party, Madigan controls four campaign funds currently totaling about $9 million. His “Friends of Michael J. Madigan” committee alone, which focuses on the speaker’s own campaign, had $2.3 million to start the year, according to the Illinois Campaign for Political Reform.

Gonzales, an independent management consultant with a master’s in public administration from Harvard University, said he has considered challenging Madigan for years but was waiting for the right moment. He grew up in Carpentersville, but has lived in Madigan’s district for about two years.

“It’s time that we have somebody new. The Democratic Party in Illinois needs to be rebuilt,” Gonzales said.

Since Madigan’s election in 1971, he has won every race he’s been in, and recent contests have been blowouts.

Madigan also has been instrumental in maintaining the Democrats’ majority in the House for all but two years in the mid-1990s.

Madigan did not agree to an interview for this story.

Madigan’s 22nd House District has the third highest concentration of Latino residents among legislators in either chamber, according to the Latino Policy Forum. Latinos make up half of the 44,100 registered voters in the district.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS Germany: Files listing IS fighters are authentic

BERLIN – Thousands of files have surfaced with personal data on members of the Islamic State group – documents that might help authorities track down and prosecute foreign fighters who returned home after joining the extremists, or identify those who recruited them in the first place.

Germany’s federal criminal police said Thursday they are in possession of the files and believe they are authentic.

The announcement came after Britain’s Sky News reported it had obtained 22,000 Islamic State files that detail the real names of fighters for the group, where they were from, their telephone numbers and even names of those who sponsored and recruited them.

Zappala said of the Wednesday nighttime shootings.

The medical examiner officially ruled the death of the fetus a homicide Thursday afternoon, bringing the fatalities in the late Wednesday night ambush attack to six.

Republican presidential candidates Sen. Marco Rubio (left), R-Fla.; Donald Trump; Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas; and Ohio Gov. John Kasich stand together Thursday before the start of a Republican presidential debate in Coral Gables, Fla.

GOP rivals fight on – but politely – in debate The ASSOCIATED PRESS MIAMI – Abandoning the nasty insults of past debates, Donald Trump and his Republican rivals turned Thursday’s presidential faceoff into a mostly respectful discussion of Social Security, Islam, trade and more. Trump shook his head and declared at one point: “I can’t believe how civil it’s been up here.”

Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio found plenty of areas of difference with Trump, but the candidates largely managed to lay them out without vitriol. In a lengthy discussion of the threat posed by radicalized Muslims, Trump refused to back away from his recent statement that “Islam hates the West.”

Asked if he meant all Muslims, Trump said: “I mean a lot of them” and he wouldn’t be “politically correct” by avoiding such statements.

Rubio had a pointed comeback: “I’m not interested in being politically correct. I’m interested in being correct.”

The Florida senator noted the Muslims in the U.S. military and buried in Arlington National Cemetery and said the only way to solve the problem of violent extremists is to work with people in the Muslim faith who are not radicals.

Cruz bundled together his criticisms of Trump for what he called simplistic solutions on trade and on Islamic terrorists, saying, “The answer is not to simply yell, ‘China: bad, Mus-

lim: bad.’ ” Trump, however, clearly was intent on projecting a less bombastic – and more presidential – image.

“We’re all in this together,” he said early on, sounding more like a conciliator than a provocateur as he strives to unify the party behind his candidacy. “We’re going to come up with solutions. We’re going to find the answer to things.”

Trump’s rivals, in a desperate scramble to halt his march to the nomination, gradually ramped up their criticism as the night wore on.

Rubio’s overarching message: “I know that a lot of people find appeal in the things Donald says. The problem is presidents can’t just say anything they want because it has consequences around the world.”

Cruz, eager to cement his position as the party’s last best alternative to Trump, had a string of criticisms of the GOP front-runner, too, saying flatly at one point: “His solutions don’t work.”

Trump refused to take the bait when Cruz repeatedly poked at his foreign policy positions and at one point lumped Trump with Hillary Clinton and John Kerry in supporting the Obama administration’s Iran nuclear deal.

Trump’s restrained response: “If Ted was listening, he would have heard me say something very similar” to what Cruz had said about the failings of the deal.

GUEST VIEW: JIM DURKIN

Republicans in Springfield want to return to work Illinois currently is in its ninth month without a state budget. A great majority of state government is being funded through consent decrees, continuing appropriations and local court orders.

However, that is not the case with our universities, MAP grant recipients and social service providers who have yet to be funded because of the budget impasse.

On March 3, the House Democrats adjourned session and basically told us “don’t come back to work until April 4. Never mind the crisis with our universities and social service agencies.” Apparently, the primary election on March 15 is the priority for the House Democrats.

The House Republican caucus doesn’t need this “break” and wants to get back to work. In my opinion, “work” means that both sides of the aisle meet and negotiate a resolution to the current higher education/social services crisis and the upcoming 2017 budget.

On Jan. 14, 2015, I distinctly recall Speaker Michael Madigan making the following statement to the Republican House Members – “Wish to welcome you back to the active participation of state government.” This statement rings hollow, as the House Republicans were shut out of the 2016 budget negotiations and currently are shut out from any negotiations to solve the higher education/social service crisis. How does that equate to “active participation in state government”?

The House Republicans have introduced multiple legislative initiatives directed at solving the higher education/social services crisis this year. These proposals have not seen the light of day because of the oligarchy currently existing in the Illinois House.

To all Illinoisans, the way out of this impasse is through compromise and negotiation.

We have done this time and time again in our chamber. At this moment, it is becoming abundantly clear that the House Democrats do not feel this impasse is worthy of negotiation and settlement.

The House Republicans believe in bringing this impasse to a close through good faith negotiations. The Illinois General Assembly can and must get this done. We do not need to wait until our return from “break” to solve the crisis.

Jim Durkin is the Illinois House Republican leader.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Not all pit bulls are bad, but some owners are

To the Editor: I am so sick of reading the stories about pit bulls. Not all pit bulls are mean. It’s the owners of the pit bills who make the dog mean. Pit bulls are given bad names because of jerks like that.

I own a pit bull – the sweetest, most loving dog I’ve ever had. The only thing my pit bull would attack would be a hamburger from Wendy’s. He loves kids’ meals.

Anyway, my pit bull loves everyone. I’m sure if someone tried to hit me or break into my house, he would protect. But just to attack someone walking, no way.

I’ve seen small dogs be mean and attack people. To me, smaller dogs are more of an attack dog – as in, a mailman.

The people who teach their pit bull to be mean are the ones who should be fixed or put in jail like the dog is.

So please, before you judge all pit bulls, look at the bigger picture

first. Look at the owner, too. I love my pit bull. Give pit bulls a break.

One party not responsible for gerrymandering woes

To the Editor: Scott Reeder continues his attack on all things Democratic in his latest column. He would like all to believe that Speaker Michael Madigan is the devil incarnate. This time, he accuses the speaker of creating legislative gerrymandering. If the Republicans controlled the Legislature, the same accusations would be made, and Reeder knows it.

He previously has written in support of an independent commission to redraw legislative districts. In principle, I fully support that idea, but since several other states have begun that experiment, the results are not fully clear.

Illinois has had a long and contentious history on redistricting.

After the 1980 census, and after the resulting legislative fight, the

Democrats controlled the 1981 redistricting. After the 1990 census, a similar donnybrook occurred – but this time, the Republicans controlled the 1991 redistricting. After the 2000 census, plus the loss of a seat for the House of Representatives, and that the Legislature was split, a compromise resulted in a new map that saw the loss of a previously Democratic seat.

We now have legislative districts created by a Democratic-controlled Legislature.

It could be argued that this is what the voting public wanted when they gave the majority of both houses to the Democrats. I am concerned that until all states go to an independent commission system, fairness across the board is still questionable. Gerrymandering has been a fact of life in American politics since at least 1812, if not earlier.

As I said, the idea sounds good, but let’s not blame one man or one party for redistricting problems.

Joliet West’s Trevian Bell drives to the basket for a dunk that gave the Tigers a late 44-37 lead over Joliet Central in Wednesday night’s Class 4A Lockport Sectional semifinal.

The Tigers held off the Steelmen, 47-44, and will meet Oswego at 7 p.m. Friday for the title.

CLASS 4A LOCKPORT BOYS BASKETBALL SECTIONAL FINAL PREVIEW

A WHOLE NEW BALLGAME This Oswego team healthier than the one Joliet West faced in MLK Day of Hoops

Joliet West had lost five of its previous six games and badly needed a victory.

Oswego was without injured starting guards Malique Ross and Jaylen Jones.

The MLK Day of Hoops meeting at Joliet Central between the two finalists in the Class 4A Lockport Sectional was not necessarily indicative of what we can expect in Friday night’s sectional championship game, but it is interesting that it happened.

VIEWS Dick Goss Following West’s 61-55 MLK victory, Tigers coach Nick DiForti said, “I know Oswego was missing some of their leading scorers, but they still play very well. I have a lot of respect for their program from the days when I was at Plainfield North. It will be

interesting to see how we match up with them in the sectional.”

At that time, DiForti had no way of knowing the meeting actually would happen in the sectional final, but he certainly was aware of the type of game it could be.

And, as impressive as Ross and Oswego (19-9) were in the second half of Tuesday’s 55-38 win over top-seeded Minooka, West (20-9) may look back at Wednesday night’s 47-44 escape against Joliet Central as hugely

beneficial.

“Absolutely, it helps prepare us for Oswego,” DiForti said of having beaten Central for a third time on a night when the Steelmen were at their relentless best. “We are riding big, positive waves right now.”

In last week’s 64-59 win over Plainfield North in the championship game of the Neuqua Regional, West led by 11 points early in the fourth quarter. The

18 NAIA WOMEN’S NATIONAL BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT – FIRST ROUND: ASBURY COLLEGE 63, U. OF ST. FRANCIS 60

USF women rally but fall short vs. Asbury SUBMITTED REPORT

SIOUX CITY, Iowa – University of St. Francis’ first trip to the NAIA Women’s National Tournament in 14 years turned out to be brief, as Asbury College (Ky.) stunned the NAIA II No. 6-ranked Saints, 63-60, in first-round action Thursday morning at the Tyson Events Center.

Trailing by as many as 14 points in the first half, the Saints battled back to gain their first lead, 56-55, with 5:51 to play, but could only hold that advantage for 23 seconds before Asbury (249) went back on top. The Saints then forced the second of two ties at 58 with 4:53 remaining before Asbury went up for good, 59-58, at the 4:46 mark.

From that point, the Saints (28-5) were able to manage only two points, pulling to within 61-60 with 2:08 left on a steal and basket by senior Alexis Brown. Five opportunities to take the

• GOSS

Continued from page 17 lead dwindled to 56-54, and North had a possession to take the lead.

Against Central, the Tigers were up, 23-14, at halftime, fell behind, 35-30, early in the fourth quarter, led, 45-37, with a minute left and then forced a turnover in the closing seconds that prevented the Steelmen from perhaps getting off a game-winning shot.

“That’s something we are working on at practice – we have some high-intensity drills,” DiForti said of playing with a lead. “The kids start feeling comfortable. It was the same thing against Plainfield North.”

Playing with a lead requires solid defense, taking care of the ball, taking good shots and making free throws. If West does beat Oswego to advance to Tuesday’s DeKalb Supersectional at Northern Illinois University, chances are the Tigers will have earned passing grades in most or all of those areas.

“With their pressure and their ability, they are fully loaded,” Central coach Jeff Corcoran said of the Tigers. “West may get on a run and go a long way.

“If you had told me we could hold them to 47 points and play at the pace and tempo we like, I would have thought we had a great chance to come out on top. This sectional was open for anybody to do this, and West

lead ensued in the final 78 seconds, but the Saints misfired on three field-goal attempts before turning the ball over with 18 seconds to play.

Then, after Asbury missed its second and third free throws down the stretch, the Saints had one last chance with 6 seconds remaining, only to come up short on an Angelica Osusky inside shot.

“Our shots just were not falling today, but we did a great job of crawling back at the end,” said Samantha Quigley, whose team also committed 16 turnovers. “We got great shots at the end, including some near the basket, but we expended so much energy to get back in the game that we came up short on those shots as well.”

St. Francis finished shooting 39.3 percent, which was an improvement from a first half in which they hit only 8 of 28 attempts (.286). The Saints struggled further at the foul line, where they

can now.”

One key will be whether Tigers guard Teyvion Kirk, always a key to West’s success, is able hold his own against Ross.

“They have good guards,” Kirk said of Oswego. “Ross is very good. But I trust myself and my energy. I think we will use this (Central) game as momentum boost and win Friday.”

Another important element is whether West’s leading scorer, Trevian Bell, has a good offensive game, which I feel he will. He averages more than 15 points, had 11 against Oswego the first time and was limited to seven against Central on Wednesday as he hit 3 of 11 shots and 1 of 4 free throws.

My crystal ball, which has been hit-or-miss in this sectional, says West will prevail, but it will be close. Ross and Jones make Oswego a tougher foe this time.

On the other hand, the Tigers are playing better now than they were in mid-January.

If you’re a Tigers fan, you may be worried about how your team will finish. The concern is legitimate. But Oswego has the type of team that West seems to play well against, and each game is different. This may be the night the Tigers advance because they execute at crunch time.

“We try to control our own destiny, control what we can,” DiForti said.

were 10 of 17.

A 15-3 run midway through the first quarter and stretching two minutes into the second put the Saints in their 24-10 deficit before cutting that difference down to 31-23 at the break.

Asbury built its advantage back to 35-23 to start the third quarter before the Saints went on an 8-0 burst keyed by 3-pointers from juniors Charnelle Reed and Jordan Giddings to make it 35-31.

As it did all day, however, Asbury countered with a Kylee Gorby 3-pointer to extend the lead back to seven at 38-31.

“They hit big shots all day when they needed them,” said Quigley, who could only watch as the Eagles connected on eight of 14 from 3-point range.

“We played much better defensively in the second half, but they still hit some big shots at the end.”

Brown came up big for the Saints

when they needed her most, including the steal and basket late. She finished with a game-high 20 points. Reed chipped in 19.

“Alexis played like a senior today.

She did exactly what we needed from her,” Quigley said. “She was definitely a leader on the court.”

Brittany Warren led Asbury with 18 points, including three clutch 3-pointers. Savannah Taylor added two 3-pointers and 13 points, while Kali Whiteside collected a game-high 14 rebounds.

The Saints’ 28-5 record marks the best season in school history.

“Today hurt, but every year (over the past four years) we have done something better,” Quigley said. “This was a record-breaking season for us as a program, as a team and individually for many players.

“Today stings, but the program has a bright future.”

“We’re right back where we were last year with Hillcrest, and we’re hoping to get some revenge this time,” Marotta said. “We were leading at halftime, and then losing it hurt, so it will be nice to get this one.”

Postseason success is nothing new for Hillcrest, which is playing in its eighth sectional final in 12 years. The Hawks have won four sectionals in the

past six years, and two of those titles have led them to winning trophies at state, including a championship in 2010.

The winner advances to Tuesday’s 7 p.m. Joliet Central Supersectional for the chance to assure themselves of a trophy with a trip to the state semifinals next weekend in Peoria. The winner of the St. Laurence Sectional, Morgan Park or Bogan, will await them Tuesday.

West, which is the only Lincoln-Way

team to make any sectional appearance since the school split in 2001, hopes to join the 2001 Knights squad as a sectional champion and become only the third team in the district’s history to win a sectional title game.

“It seems like no matter where I go, I can’t get Hillcrest away from me,” said Flaherty, who met the Hawks often while coaching at Bremen. “I couldn’t even tell you how many seasons of mine that they’ve ended.

“The kids are looking forward to it.

I think it left a little bit of a bad taste in their mouth how we felt when we walked off of the floor last year. But I know one thing – Don’s going to have those guys ready.”

STREATOR – The last meeting between Lincoln-Way West’s boys basketball team and Hillcrest still brings back bad memories for Jon Marotta and Marco Pettinato.

20 WOMEN’S BASKETBALL: NCAA DIVISION II MIDWEST REGIONAL PREVIEW

Lewis women hope to keep special season going

By CURT HERRON

cherron@shawmedia.com ROMEOVILLE – When Lewis University’s women’s basketball team lost Nov. 25 at Grand Valley State University, 71-63, there were a lot of questions as to just how good the squad would be.

That’s because one of the nation’s top squads suddenly was missing one of the country’s best players. All-American Jamie Johnson suffered a season-ending injury in that game.

While new coach Kristen Gillespie knew she could rely on another one of the nation’s best players – senior Mariyah Brawner-Henley – to lead the way, there were many unknowns for a squad that was ranked second in NCAA Division II after a 5-0 start.

But little did anyone know that Jessica Kelliher would develop into a great complement to Great Lakes Valley Conference Player of the Year Brawner-Henley – play that led Kelliher to being selected as the GLVC’s Freshman of the Year.

And although Brawner-Henley has averaged 20.3 points and 11.5 rebounds, and Kelliher has scored 18.2 points and grabbed 6.2 rebounds a game, the Flyers’ fortunes would be determined by many others who needed to take on different roles.

But thanks to the efforts of performers such as junior Alyssa Siwek (7.1 points), freshman Kayla Brewer (6.3 points), sophomore Tiana Karopulos (5.9 points) and senior Alyssa Dengler (4.3 points), the Flyers not only were competitive, but also remained among the nation’s best.

Lewis (28-2) won its next 22 games to complete a 27-1 regular season that featured an 18-0 mark in GLVC play to become just the third team to have a perfect league record.

The Flyers also won their opener in the GLVC Tournament before falling to Quincy, 59-54, in the semifinals to snap a school-record-tying 23-game win streak. Despite that loss, Lewis earned its 11th NCAA appearance and begins play at 1:30 p.m. Friday against Grand Valley State in the Midwest Regional at Ashland University in Ashland, Ohio.

Lewis, which is ranked sixth in the nation, is second-seeded in the tournament behind host Ashland. They’ll meet the seventh-seeded Lakers (229) in their opener, with the winner getting third-seeded Bellarmine or six-seeded Saginaw Valley State in Saturday’s 4 p.m. semifinals.

“On Nov. 25th, if you would have told me after Jamie went down that we’d finish 28-2, I would have said,

Shaw Media file photo

Lewis University’s Mariyah Brawner-Henley shoots over the arms of Wisconsin-Parkside’s Jessica Prince during a game Feb. 25 at Neil Carey Arena in Romeoville.

‘Where do I sign?’ ” GLVC Coach of the Year Gillespie said. “You have to give all of the credit to our players since they really bought in. Our seniors really stepped up with their leadership and said, ‘Hey, we’re going to be OK.’ They knew that they were going to miss Jamie, but that they’d also have to step up, and that’s been their mentality all year.

“We play about nine players, and each one plays an integral part. Some play a little more than others, but you can always count on people doing their role. We didn’t have any all-conference perimeter players, but they do their job and do it well, and it seemed like it was a different person stepping up every night. You really have to give this team a lot of credit, because coming in, Jamie and Mariyah were the only ones who had played significant minutes. Everyone else was either a role player, a redshirt last year or a true freshman.”

Because it was ranked highly all season. Lewis faced everyone’s best

and still found ways to win. And being challenged on so many occasions works to its advantage now.

“I cannot be more proud of this group,” Gillespie said. “To be 28-2, ranked sixth in the country and be a two-seed is just awesome. What I love about this team is that it’s not been easy for us. It’s been a dogfight in every game, so I feel that we’re really battle-tested for what we’re going to see.

This group is still hungry, and they’re not satisfied, especially after coming up a little short in the conference tournament. We have a renewed focus, and it took a little pressure off of us.

There’s 64 teams left, and what a great honor to be one of them.”

After classmate Johnson got injured, Dengler didn’t know how her final season would finish.

“When Jamie went down, it was a big wake-up call for us,” Dengler said.

“Everyone had to find a way to step up, and everyone has done a really good job and done little things to help us win. Mariyah and Jessica are a huge

part of our offense, and other teams double on them, so the rest of us have to do things a little differently. We’re going to go far in the postseason for Jamie and all the seniors, since none of us want to be done yet. We’re a huge family and are always there for each other. The past four years have been the greatest of my life.”

A season that could have been merely alright has instead turned into a special one.

“Our team has a lot of character, so when Jamie went down, we all knew that we had to step up since everyone was gunning for us,” Brewer said. “Everyone always doubles- or triple-teams Mo and Jess, so it makes it hard for them to score, so our guards have really had to step up, and we’re all coming together as a team. The loss to Quincy made us look at what adjustments we have to make, and now we know that we only have one more chance and we’re done. I like how we stick together and pick each other up. That’s our best quality.”

Tony Parker added 20 points and had 12 assists for San Antonio, which has won 40 straight at home going back to last season.

The Spurs have their best start after 65 games at 55-10.

Derrick Rose and Pau Gasol had 21 points each for the Bulls. E’Twaun Moore had 20 points, going 4 for 5 on 3-pointers.

The Bulls were without Jimmy Butler, Joakim Noah and Cameron Bairstow, who were not with the team because of injuries.

Leonard defended Rose early, resulting in the Bulls point guard throwing up a couple of shots wildly while shooting 2 for 7 during the first

quarter.

The Bulls finished with 21 turnovers.

WASHINGTON – Trailing Duke by 16 points in the second half at the ACC Tournament, Notre Dame didn’t think it was done.

“We knew,” Bonzie Colson insisted, “our run was coming.”

Using coach Mike Brey’s switch from zone defense to man-to-man to great effect, and dominating inside thanks to Colson and Zach Auguste, defending conference tourney champion Notre Dame came back to beat reigning NCAA champ Duke, 84-79, in overtime in the ACC quarterfinals Thursday.

Auguste had 19 points and 22 rebounds, while Colson added 12 points and 12 rebounds.

V.J. Beachem scored 19 points, including a couple of key 3s late in the second half and another in the extra period, for Notre Dame (21-10), which also beat Duke (23-10) a year ago en route to winning the league tourney and earlier this season at Cameron Indoor Stadium.

NEW ORLEANS – The New Orleans Saints and former Indianapolis Colts tight end Coby Fleener agreed to the terms of a five-year contract Wednesday night, hours after the NFL’s free-agency period began. The deal is worth a reported $36 million.

The addition of Fleener, a 2007 Joliet Catholic graduate and a four-year NFL veteran who caught 54 passes for 491 yards and three touchdowns last season, helps fill a void left by tight end Ben Watson’s departure for Baltimore. Watson was New Orleans’ top receiving tight end last season, catching 74 passes for 825 yards and six touchdowns, which set or matched career highs in all three categories.

But while Watson is 35 years old and entering his 13th NFL season, the 6-foot-6 Fleener is 27 and demonstrated considerable potential two seasons ago, when Colts quarterback Andrew Luck was healthy. That season, Fleener caught 51 passes for 774 yards and eight TDs. Now he’ll play with Brees, the same quarterback who helped Watson and former Saints tight end Jimmy Graham have the best years of

their careers.

The Colts made Fleener, who played with Luck at Stanford, the 34th overall selection in the 2012 draft.

22 MEN’S BASKETBALL: NCAA DIVISION II MIDWEST REGIONAL PREVIEW

Lewis men’s team gets hot at the right time

By CURT HERRON

cherron@shawmedia.com ROMEOVILLE – All that a basketball coach can hope for from his team is that they’re playing their best as the season winds down.

Lewis University men’s coach Scott Trost knew he had the potential for a really good squad this season but that it might take awhile for things to come together.

But after seeing his squad go 11-2 down the stretch – highlighted by a 4-0 run to capture the championship of the Great Lakes Valley Conference Tournament – the Flyers coach is excited about his team’s chances as they enter the NCAA Division II Midwest Regional.

Lewis (24-8) takes on Saginaw Valley State University (22-7) at 8:30 p.m. Saturday in the regional at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside in Somers, Wisconsin, to kick off play in its 15th NCAA appearance.

It’s a rematch of a Nov. 21 game bin which the Flyers claimed an 85-84 home victory. Lewis enters this contest seeded fourth in the regional; the Cardinals, who are playing in their first NCAA Division II regional, are the fifth seed.

The winner will play at 7:30 p.m.

Sunday against top-seeded UWParkside or eighth-seeded Kentucky Wesleyan. The other side of the bracket features No. 3 Ashland playing No. 6 Indianapolis and No. 2 Bellarmine facing No. 7 Ferris State. The regional championship is at 7 p.m. Tuesday.

“It’s a special time, and this is a special group,” Trost said. “We knew all along that this team had a lot of talent. But when you start two freshmen and try to get a transfer involved and up to speed, it was going to take some time, and we hoped that it would come before this tournament. This group has bought in and came together at the right time. It’s been a process and a journey, but that makes it that much more rewarding.”

While the GLVC can be an unforgiving league for teams that are trying to find their identity, it also prepares a squad well for postseason play, and the Flyers feel that they are battle-tested as they get ready for a wide-open regional tournament.

“In the last couple of weeks, we’ve played Bellarmine, Parkside and Indy, and there are no easy games in our league,” Trost said. “In this regional, as with the conference tournament, I don’t think there’s a dominant team, but there’s a bunch of really, really good teams. I think that our team is as capable as anyone else of winning the

But we’re going to have to go up there and play well.”

The Flyers won the GLVC tourney title after beating three teams that are in the regional – Indianapolis, Bellarmine and UW-Parkside.

They avenged an earlier defeat by Bellarmine and two previous losses to Parkside to win their first GLVC Tournament title since 2002.

“Our guys are unselfish, and they have a togetherness about them that is probably as good as any group that I’ve had since I’ve been here,” Trost said. “They care for one another and want to win for each other. This group has done the right things, and they’re great guys on and off the court. And the good thing is that we’re awfully young. It’s been a good group, and we’re going to try to keep it going.”

Sophomore Max Strus, who was

MVP of the GLVC Tournament, leads the Flyers with 20.3 points and 8.5 rebounds a game. Other top scorers are senior Kyle Nelson (13.1 points, 6.6 rebounds), junior Miles Simelton (12.4 points), freshman Delaney Blaylock (12.0 points, 5.8 rebounds), junior Capel Henshaw (8.3 points) and freshman Frank Vukaj (7.3 points).

“You want to make sure to be playing your best basketball at the end of the season, and that’s what we’re doing right now,” Nelson said. “We’ve worked this whole season to get to be hitting your peak at this point. We have three newcomers who are starting, but they’ve found their role and have been playing terrifically. I just love every one of these guys. We all hang out together. Each win and each basket is pure joy for all of us when we succeed. I’d definitely say that one of our biggest strengths is our chemistry

and how close we are.”

While Strus is one of the top sophomores in the country and Nelson has been a valued senior for Lewis, Blaylock and Vukaj have made successful transitions to the college level, and Simelton has been another welcome addition after transferring from Lehigh.

“We’ve gone through some adversity, but we’ve come together at the right time and started to get hot around tournament time,” Simelton said. “Freshmen have to go through their learning curves and as a transfer, I had to get acclimated to the system. Credit Delaney and Frank since they picked it up fast, and I had confidence in myself and got up to speed with everything we were doing. Our group has really good chemistry – we’re like a band of brothers on the court. We’re all good character guys, and character goes a long ways.”

Chamber music theater to make history come alive

By DENISE M. BARAN–UNLAND dunland@shawmedia.com

ROMEOVILLE – On Monday, get a glimpse into Latin culture through the lives of three notable women.

“Tres Vidas: Three Notable Latina” is a two-person, 90-minute chamber music theater work featuring the lives of Mexican painter Frida Kahlo, Salvadoran peasant activist Rufina Amaya and Argentinean poet Alfonsina Storni.

Actress Rosa Rodriguez and pianist Byron Sean will perform the show as part of the company Core Ensemble in the St. Charles Borromeo Convocation Center at Lewis University in Romeoville.

“I’m looking forward to connecting with the audience and – hopefully – after the show, too,” Rodriguez said of the performance and the question-and-answer session that often follows it. “Hopefully, they will leave with something that touched them, that they learned something they didn’t know, something they wish they could learn more about.”

According to a Lewis University news release, “Tres Vidas: Three Notable Latina,” written by Marjorie Agosin, features a wide stylistic range of music.

This includes popular and folk songs of Mexico, El Salvador and Argentina; vocal and instrumental tangos by Carlos Gardel and Astor Piazzolla; and new music written especially for the Core Ensemble by Osvaldo Golijov, Orlando Garcia, Pablo Ortiz and Manuel DeMurga.

Core Ensemble, whose website said the group celebrates diversity through chamber music theater, already had several versions of the show in play – including one that had a cello player and percussionist – when Rodriguez, a New York actress, became involved, she said.

“They are three very, very interesting, strong women that have done a lot for the culture. It’s important for me to get their stories out there.”

‘Strong women’

When the opportunity to participate opened up, Rodriguez said she took it “because of the characters I get to play.”

“They are three very, very interesting, strong women that have done a lot for the culture,” Rodriguez said.

“It’s important for me to get their stories out there.”

The beauty of the songs, which Rodriguez sings in Spanish, greatly contributes to telling those stories,

“They’re still able to feel it, to make the connection, even though they don’t necessarily understand the words,” Rodriguez said.

Although Rodriguez said she

previously acted in commercials and industrial projects, she felt “Tres Vidas: Three Notable Latina” stretched her talents in satisfying ways.

“I learned to exercise my ability to pretty much carry the energy by myself,” Rodriguez said.

Since the mid-1980s, Marjorie Agosin, author of “Tres Vidas: Three Notable Latina” has been a voice of Latin American feminism in the United States.

Raised in Chile, Agosin was a teen when she moved to Georgia with her family. She earned a bachelor’s degree in philosophy at the University of Georgia and a doctorate in literature from Indiana University.

Agosin has written nearly 20 books, including poetry, fiction and literary criticism. She has won the Letras de Oro Prize for Poetry, the Latino Literature Prize and the Morgan Institute Prize for Achievement in Human Rights. Scholastics Magazine chose Agosin as 1998 Latino Mentor of the Year.

She is a professor of Spanish at Wellesley College and recently was named a fellow to the David Rockefeller Center for Latin American Studies at Harvard University.

A&E BRIEFS Plainfield East students use their art for underprivileged children

PLAINFIELD – Plainfield East High School National Art Honor Society students used their skills to create lasting memories for underprivileged children across the globe through the Memory Project.

The students participated under the direction of Cynthia Egizio, Plainfield East High School art teacher and society sponsor.

The nonprofit organization invites art teachers and their students to create portraits for youth around the world who have faced substantial challenges including neglect, abuse, loss of parents and extreme poverty.

Each student artist received a photo of a child to use when creating the portrait.

Society members just finished portraits for children in Ethiopia and will complete portraits for children in Bolivia before the end of March.

The students will get a video of the children receiving their portraits later this spring after the 25 drawings are delivered, Egizio said.

The NAHS also regularly works with PEHS special-needs students.

Counter stress to avoid overeating Dear Dr. K: I eat whenever I’m stressed out – and I always reach for the sweet stuff. Why does stress have this effect on me? How can I fight the urge?

Dear Reader: You’re not alone. Ongoing stress, the hormones it unleashes and the effects of high-fat, sugary “comfort foods” push many people toward overeating.

In the short term, stress can shut down appetite. But if stress persists, it’s a different story. In times of stress, the adrenal glands release a hormone called cortisol that increases appetite. It also may ramp up motivation in general – including the motivation to eat. Once a stressful episode is over, cortisol levels should fall. But if the stress doesn’t go away – or if a person’s stress response gets stuck in the “on” position – cortisol may stay elevated.

Stress also seems to affect food preferences. Numerous studies (many of them in animals) have shown physical or emotional distress increases the intake of food high in fat, sugar or both. High cortisol levels, in combination with high insulin levels, might be responsible.

Other research suggests ghrelin, a “hunger hormone,” might have a role.

Ghrelin is made in the stomach, after it has not been stretched by food for several hours. The hormone travels through the blood to the brain, where it signals you need to eat something.

Once ingested, fat- and sugar-filled foods seem to have a positive feedback effect. They inhibit activity in the parts of the brain that produce and process stress.

In a sense, these foods really are “comfort” foods in that they seem to counteract stress. This might explain why you reach for particular foods when you are feeling stressed. And why I do, too.

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff How to fight the urge? The first step is obvious: Get rid of the high-fat, sugary foods in your kitchen. Keeping those foods handy is just inviting trouble.

But it is just as important, if not more so, to counter the stress that causes your cravings. Here are some suggestions: • Meditate. Countless studies show meditation reduces stress. It also may help you become more mindful of food choices. With practice, you may be able to pay better attention to the impulse to grab certain comfort foods and inhibit that impulse.

• Exercise. Low-intensity exercise seems to reduce levels of cortisol, and that should help decrease appetite. Some activities, such as yoga and tai chi, have elements of both exercise and meditation.

• Seek social support. Friends, family and other sources of social support seem to have a buffering effect on the stress people experience. Seek them out when stress starts to build.

I remember a patient who had several co-workers whom she found difficult. She was eating a lot of junk food and gaining weight. I advised her to walk for one hour every morning. She lost 40 pounds during the first year. “It wasn’t that the exercise burned it off,” she said. “The exercise chilled me out. They just didn’t bug me anymore.”

see your son’s.

While you crave peace and quiet at the end of the day, he worries you are isolating yourself.

Friendships aren’t supposed to drain people; they are supposed to be nurturing. People with rewarding companions they can laugh and commiserate with are happier, less stressed and live longer, so perhaps you should rethink your position.

Dear Abby: Ten years ago, when I lived in California, I dated the love of my life, “Tammy.” We were perfect together, and I often was amazed by how much I loved her.

After about two years we broke up, and I moved 3,000 miles away. My rebound relationship lasted a decade and produced a beautiful baby boy. After it recently ended, I reached out to Tammy. We hadn’t communicated in 10 years, and I learned she is married with three kids and she’s miserable.

She said she misses me and has never stopped loving me. We talk on the phone often, and she says she wants to see me. I have no idea where this is going, but I’d love to see her. What should I do? – Nostalgic In New York Dear Nostalgic: I’m glad you asked, although I doubt you will heed my advice. Here it is: You and Tammy should postpone any reunions until she has resolved her marital situation because there are more people involved now than just the two of you. Whether she remains in her unhappy marriage is anyone’s guess, but if you step in now, it will only add to her troubles.

Dear Abby: How do I respond to a gift when I don’t know whether or not it’s a gag gift? My sister sent a present that appears to be expensive, but is not only awful, it’s also tacky and weird.

She has a great sense of humor, but added no card or message that would give us a clue how to appropriately thank her. – Not Sure In New

Dear Abby: My DEAR ABBY son is driving me crazy. He’s Jeanne worried because Phillips I don’t have friends I hang out with. He said it’s not normal for a woman to not want to have friends. I say it is.

I work with people between 50 and 70 hours a week. I have more than a thousand town home and condo residents to deal with, and I receive nonstop complaints day in and day out. On top of that, I must supervise vendors and contractors, answer to several boards and have up to eight evening meetings a month.

When I finally get home, I don’t want to set up a shopping or dinner date with anybody. I want to sit in peace and quiet. I don’t want to be around people at all. I’m perfectly happy not having friends. Can you see my point? – Lady

SATURDAY HOROSCOPE

By EUGENIA LAST

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – Consistency will be your saving grace.

Strive for precision and honesty in order to make a good impression and be given greater opportunities. Don’t let complexity drag you down. Life is simple if you stick to guidelines and follow your heart.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Follow your instincts. Trust in you, not in what someone tells you. Don’t let anyone take care of your personal affairs. Stay in control and do things your way.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – If you try your hand at something new, it will lead to a host of options you never thought possible. Welcome

change and let every situation that comes your way unfold naturally.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Don’t be afraid to show your sensitive side. It will be endearing and bring positive attention from someone you care for. Networking will result in an encounter with someone gifted.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Be very observant in order to protect your reputation. Avoid gossip or getting involved in someone else’s business.

Concentrate on personal improvements instead of trying to change others. Avoid a run-in with an authority figure.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – You can make a difference if you offer assistance to someone in need or volunteer for a cause. Your kindness will result in an offer you cannot refuse. A

relationship will boost your ego.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Accept the facts. Make shrewd preparations in order to avoid a loss.

The sooner you recognize what is and isn’t possible, the sooner you will be able to improve your situation.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Study others’ reactions. A hobby will help you expand your mind or improve your image. Face challenges head-on in order to come out on top.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Don’t give in when you should get moving and do your own thing.

Pay more attention to your talents and utilize your skills strategically if you want to enjoy massive success.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Communication will stimulate your mind. A game of chance will

entice you, but it shouldn’t be allowed to upset your personal finances. Self-improvement will bring higher returns.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Recognize the pros and cons of whatever situation you come up against. Be wary of an embellished sales pitch that is aimed at taking your cash. Don’t panic; just decline and move along.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Keep everyone amused with your entertaining ways in order to be the life of the party. Don’t fear the unknown; do your research and aim to own it.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Avoid a frivolous expenditure even if you are intrigued by the offer. A physical challenge will keep you out of trouble and leave you feeling accomplished.

Romance is encouraged.

Benjamin Disraeli, the British prime minister from 1874 to 1880, said, “I feel a very unusual sensation -- if it is not indigestion, I think it must be gratitude.”

We have been looking at the Michaels Cue-Bid. Now let’s move to its poorer cousin, the Unusual NoTrump. If your right-hand opponent opens one of a suit, and you jump to two no-trump, you show at least 5-5 in the two lowest-ranking unbid suits. This was devised by Al Roth in 1948.

The snag with the Unusual NoTrump, especially when the opener bids a major, is that you are fighting with the minors, always having to go one level higher to outbid the opponents. And if they buy the contract, their declarer will accurately steer through the deal now that your hand is an open book.

In today’s deal, though, South plays in three diamonds. What should West lead?

South has 11 high-card points, but his minor-suit fit is not good enough to contemplate game unless North has a strong hand, with which he would move over three diamonds.

After this auction, the best lead is a trump. West wants to reduce the number of club ruffs South can take in his hand.

Here, suppose West leads a weird club five. South wins with dummy’s ace, ruffs a club, and drives out the heart ace. He wins West’s trump shift in his hand, cashes his high heart, ruffs a heart, ruffs a club, ruffs his last heart, cashes the diamond ace, and plays a spade. South must score dummy’s diamond jack to make his contract. But an initial trump lead defeats the contract.
