Mayor to appoint Hernandez-Brewer to vacant City Council seat in Joliet

By BRIAN STANLEY

bstandley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Mayor Bob O’Dekirk has selected Brooke Hernandez-Brewer to fill the remainder of the at-large city council position vacated by Jim McFarland.

Hernandez-Brewer, a lifelong Joliet resident, will publicly introduce herself to council members Monday and answer questions, O’Dekirk said. The vote to confirm her appointment is scheduled for consideration at Tuesday’s regular meeting.

“I had a lot of people apply and some outstanding applicants. I think it’s important to have the whole community represented,” O’Dekirk said Friday. “With Brooke’s background and as a lifelong Joliet resident, she’ll be a great fit for the council.”

Hernandez-Brewer stated in a city news release that she is “honored to be considered for a position that plays such an important role” in the community. She will fill the position through early next year, as the seat is on the April 2017 ballot for a full four-year term.

“By taking on this role as the first Hispanic female on the Joliet City Council,

“I had a lot of people apply and some outstanding applicants. I think it’s important to have the whole community represented.

With Brooke’s background and as a lifelong Joliet resident, she’ll be a great fit for the council.”

Bob O’Dekirk Joliet mayor

I look forward to being a strong voice for both women and the Hispanic community; however, it is my intention to be an advocate for all Joliet residents and to be a servant of this community,” she stated.

According the news release, Hernandez-Brewer attended Pershing and St. Paul the Apostle grade schools and Providence Catholic High School.

She is married to Kevin Brewer, a Will County deputy correctional officer, and has three children who attend St. Paul the

Apostle Grade School.

Brooke is a parishioner at St. John the Baptist Catholic Church and previously taught Confraternity of Christian Doctrine at St. John’s.

She is a member of the Women’s Loyal Order of the Moose 300 and the American Legion Post 1080.

McFarland gave notice on Sept. 9 that he was resigning at the end of the month because his family was moving out of town. McFarland said at the Sept. 19 council meeting that he is moving to Frankfort so his wife could be closer to Chicago, where she works.

But at the end of the Sept. 19 workshop meeting, which included a nearly halfhour closed session earlier in which McFarland’s resignation was discussed, the councilman announced he was giving up his seat as of midnight.

McFarland said at that time he was leaving office to speed up the process of his replacement.

“Basically, sitting in this seat I’m a lame duck,” he said after that meeting. “We have a lot of issues where we have to get someone up here to hit the ground running.”

Fundraiser held for Joliet woman killed in shooting

By FELIX SARVER

fsarver@shawmedia.com JOLIET – A fundraiser was held Friday to support the family of a Joliet woman who was killed in a shooting earlier this week.

Friends and family of Dinesty Tillman gathered under a tent near where she was killed at the corner of Richards and Washington streets.

They sold T-shirts, buttons and name tags to people passing by and offered them food. At the corner, teddy bears, candles, flowers and balloons were gathered into a memorial for Dinesty.

Aquita Tillman, Dinesty’s sister, said

what happened was tragic and she was concerned there had been no arrests yet in the incident.

“She never had a chance,” Tillman said.

Tillman was killed Sept. 25 in a shooting that also wounded her brother and 4-year-old daughter. Her 3-month-old daughter also was in the vehicle but was not injured.

At 10:35 p.m. Sept. 25, Tillman was driving her brother’s gray Ford Fusion north on Richards Street and preparing to turn onto Washington Street in Joliet when several shots rang out, Joliet Police Department Deputy Chief Al Roechner has said.

ON THE COVER

After bullets struck the Fusion, the car veered off the road and struck the railroad wall on the north side of Washington Street. Tillman and her brother got out of the car, but she collapsed under the train viaduct with a gunshot wound to her head. Her brother was treated for a gunshot wound to his left elbow, and the 4-year-old girl suffered a graze wound to her left knee.

Police have said the victims did not see anyone in the area before the shooting and could not provide any information.

The victims have no known gang involvement, Roechner has said.

In the story “Palmer uncertain which dispatch agencies will be in new Will County safety complex” that was on page 6 of the Friday, Sept. 30, 2016, edition of The Herald-News, Will County Executive Office Chief of Staff Nick Palmer was misquoted in saying consolidating agencies had adopted bylaws.

Palmer said they were “working toward” adopting bylaws.

A MILITARY FAMILY UNITED Elwood-based company gets send-off Saturday

By ALLISON SELK

Shaw Media correspondent JOLIET – Brian Shull, U.S. Army Reserve assistant platoon sergeant, deployed for the third time, leaving his wife and family behind to live their day-to-day lives.

Shull’s wife, Tami Shull, said her husband will miss the arrival of two grandchildren while he is overseas.

“He misses out on all of the good stuff, but we stay strong and support his job because that is what we do,” Tami Shull said.

“He misses out on all of the good stuff, but we stay strong and support his job because that is what we do.”

Wife of Brian Shull, U.S. Army Reserve assistant platoon sergeant The couple, who have four grown children, are also raising two foster children, ages 9 and 10, who think the world of their father. But Tami Shull said they are nervous about whether they will see him again.

On Saturday, hundreds gathered

at Plainfield South High School for a farewell ceremony to send off more than 100 Army Reserve soldiers from the Elwood-based 251st Inland Cargo Transportation Company. The group is leaving Sunday for training in Texas, and then will land in Kuwait as

part of a yearlong deployment in support of Operation Spartan Shield.

Company commander Capt. Robert Herther explained that the Inland Cargo Transfer Company operates like the U.S. Postal Service, receiving shipments and shipping them out in a timely and accurate manner.

“What we do affects everyone in the area. Whether it’s an infantry unit, armor unit or even an engineer company, they would fail their missions if they do not receive the equipment and

“To the American citizens, I tell you that these guys are ready to do their job. They’ve trained, they’ve honed their weapon, they’ve fired their equipment and ensured skillful in the capabilities that they are able to support and defend the Constitution through sustainment support wherever deployed.”

supplies they need on time,” Herther said.

Herther said the company had its biggest training mission in July at Fort McCoy in Wisconsin. The exercise allowed the soldiers to handle all the equipment they will use during deployment, and was the first time they experienced a 24-hour operation together.

“This was a great learning experience and taught everyone to work together as a team,” Herther said.

Now, after waiting a year since learning they were to deploy, the time has come for the company members.

The soldiers and their loved ones all came together Saturday as a military family, listening to speakers describe what the company will endure over the next year and offer words of encouragement for both the soldiers and the ones left behind.

“To the American citizens, I tell you that these guys are ready to do their job.

They’ve trained, they’ve honed their weapon, they’ve fired their equipment and ensured skillful in the capabilities that they are able to support and defend the Constitution through sustainment support wherever deployed,” Brig.

Gen. Jonathon McColumn, commanding general of the 103rd Sustainment Command (Expeditionary), said.

McColumn also understood how many of the loved ones staying behind may question why their soldier had to be deployed. The reason, he said, is simple: The world is not a peaceful place right now.

“As a result of that, I am so glad and thrilled that representing to my right are the 1 percent of Americans who decided to lay down their lives to defend the Constitution of the United States, so that if it was to be fought, it’s not on American soil,” McColumn said.

Brian Shull said in his past deployments the name of the game was flexibility.

“We have trained hard, but when you get over there, your missions change in a heartbeat, so you have to adapt and overcome,” he said.

The company has a mix of women and men, single and married, parents and empty nesters – but one thing their loved ones all said they value is the family feeling and support military families provide for each other while soldiers are deployed.

Domingo, has taken on the role of family readiness group leader for the company. She has organized volunteers who will assist the military community of family and friends to provide support services such as child and youth services, spousal education support, mental and medical health services, newsletters and monthly phone calls to families of the soldiers.

“I know if the family feels support, it trends back to the soldiers feeling supported,” Marie Domingo said.

Unique to the 251st Inland Cargo Transportation Company is the addition of Spc. Georgr Yacoub, originally from Iraq, which shares a border with Kuwait. His family fled in 2004 because of their Christian beliefs, and he graduated from college, became a U.S. citizen and then enlisted in the Army Reserve to give back, he said.

“I am excited to go back and happy to serve, plus I can use my language skills to help,” Yacoub said.

Joliet eyes water, sewer rate hike

By BOB OKON

bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – A proposed hike in water and sewer rates for Joliet residents could come up for a vote this week.

Rates would go up anywhere from 7 percent to 12.5 percent in November, according to the proposal. That would range from $3 to $6 a month on an average bill, although the proposal recommends continued annual increases for at least three years and possibly until 2025.

The rate increase is on the published agendas for the Monday and Tuesday council meetings. The rates were discussed at a Sept. 19 meeting by the council, which voiced mixed opinions about the 12.5 percent increase recommended by a consultant hired to review long-term financial needs for the Utilities Department.

“People are just getting on their feet, and to be hit with something like this all of a sudden is pretty tough,” Councilwoman Jan Quillman said.

Councilman Pat Mudron, however, noted that a smaller increase was

Proposed increases in rates Plan A: 12.5 percent in November, 10.5 percent in 2017, 4 percent in 2018. Continued increases to be considered in 2018.

Plan B: 7 percent increases in November, 7 percent in 2017, 7 percent in 2018.

Continued increases after 2018 could be higher than Plan A. recommended a year ago when the council chose instead to conduct an efficiency study to look for savings in the Utilities Department.

The study concluded that the city needed to spend more on preventive maintenance and needed more people in the Utilities Department, but did not find many cost savings.

“If we don’t do this, it will be a much bigger increase next year,” Mudron said.

Project Manager David Naumann with Burns McDonnell, the consulting firm proposing the rate increase, said Joliet has avoided increases in water and sewer rates while they have been

going up elsewhere to pay for mandated projects and other costs.

The typical Joliet resident pays $54 a month for water and sewer, while the regional average is $67, he said.

Naumann said Joliet rates have not gone up since 2011, while nationally rates have grown 36 percent.

“Revenue under existing rates just isn’t sufficient,” Naumann said.

The Utilities Department, which is funded solely through water and sewer rates, is projected to run out of reserve funds by 2022 at the existing rates. Joliet faces EPA mandated projects estimated to cost $106 million.

Naumann recommended that the city implement a three-year rate increase program. After three years, the city would review the need for future rate increases.

One plan starts with a 12.5 percent increase in November, followed by a 10.5 percent increase in 2017 and a 4 percent increase in 2018. The other plan recommends 7 percent increases for three years, but Naumann said the city would be looking at higher hikes in future years.

LOCAL BRIEF Smoke testing in downtown Joliet postponed due to weather

JOLIET – The scheduled smoke testing of the downtown Joliet service area has been rescheduled due to the wet weather that has hit the city during the past few days, as well as with the chance of storms Saturday.

The testing was supposed to happen Oct. 1, but now is scheduled for Oct. 8, according to a news release from the city.

The study, being performed by the engineering firm RJN Group Inc., includes smoke testing of the sanitary sewers in portions of downtown Joliet. The project boundaries are the Des Plaines River to the west, Washington Street to the south, Scott Street to the east, and Clinton Street to the north.

Smoke testing, which was conducted in August, as well, is done to find locations in the downtown area where stormwater is getting into the city’s sanitary system.

Additional information on smoke testing can be found at www.rjn.com/client-portal.

For questions about the program, call the Joliet Department of Public Utilities at 815724-4220.

JOLIET – Pathologists’ opinions are expected to be a significant issue next month when a Joliet man faces a second murder trial for the death of a toddler 11 years ago.

Dymarion T. Porter, 36, is accused of strangling and beating his girlfriend’s 18-month-old son, Jordan Gentry, on Halloween 2005.

Will County Assistant State’s Attorney Steve Platek and defense attorney Chuck Bretz on Friday asked Judge Dave Carlson to determine a cutoff date to exchange medical reports that can be used in the trial.

Dr. Bryan Mitchell performed Jordan’s autopsy for the Will County Coroner’s Office. After Mitchell died in 2010, Dr. Scott Denton reviewed his report for the prosecution and came to a similar conclusion, but Dr. Shaku Teas has reached a different opinion, according to Platek and Bretz.

“I was just informed the state intends to seek an additional expert,” Bretz said. “There have already been two state experts. I don’t want to be

blindsided two weeks before trial with some expert’s report on a case from 2005 [that we’re expected to cross-examine].”

“We’re not talking about newly discovered evidence,” Carlson agreed, and said all reports must be submitted to the other side 30 days before the Nov. 14 trial in order to be used as evidence.

On Oct. 31, 2005, Porter was taking a shower when his then-girlfriend, Jamie Jackson, asked Dymarion T. him to wash Jordan, according to court records.

Porter Porter put the boy down for a nap and told Jackson she didn’t need to check on the boy before she took her then-5-year-old daughter to a medical appointment, court records stated.

Police said Porter told them the boy began choking on water in the shower and he had tried to perform CPR. Judge Richard Schoenstedt found Porter guilty during a bench trial and sentenced him to 34 years in prison in November 2008. In 2011, an appellate court ordered a new trial after deciding Porter’s trial attorney, Craig Katz, was ineffective.

Harvesting Farm Memories Since 1909

Kaylee Steichan of Gardner-South Wilmington High School is crowned Grundy County Corn Festival Queen on Friday night in downtown Morris.

Kaylee Steichan named Grundy County Corn Festival queen

By HEIDI LITCHFIELD

hlitchfield@shawmedia.com MORRIS – The 68th annual Grundy County Corn Festival’s queen was crowned Friday night in downtown Morris.

Kaylee Steichan, representing Gardner-South Wilmington High School, was chosen in a random drawing to be queen.

Queens and their courts from Gardner-South Wilmington High School, Coal City High School, and Morris Community High School were escorted in convertibles to the Jackson Street stage, where last year’s queen, Sabrina Shafer of Minooka Community High School, drew the school names to randomly determine the queen, first runner-up and second runner-up.

Each school chooses one student as

its queen. Representing Morris Community High School this year was Abby Bruyn and representing Coal City High School was Leslie Youskovitch.

Steichan is the daughter of Dan and Kelly Steichan of Gardner.

“She’s not a showy girl, she doesn’t like to be center of attention,” her mother said. “I was surprised when she won and happy for her.”

Meet the queen

Kaylee Steichan is a junior at Gardner-South Wilmington High School, where she plays basketball and volleyball. She also is in the National Honor Society.

Morris Herald-News reporter Heidi Litchfield took some time Friday to talk to Steichan, as she began her

PLAINFIELD – A minivan that was driven into a pond early Saturday in Plainfield is a total loss.

The incident occurred about 6:30 a.m. in the area of Route 126 and Prairie Crossing, Fire Protection District Deputy Chief Jon Stratton said.

The driver of the Honda minivan told authorities he drove into the pond after falling asleep at the wheel, Stratton said.

When the fire district arrived, the van was about 50 feet from shore. The vehicle sunk to the bottom of the pond, with only the roof visible, Stratton said, but the driver escaped by swimming.

The driver was not injured, Stratton said, nor did he receive any charges, Illinois State Police District 5 Sgt. Scott Angus said.

Morris remembers Terri Gilmoure

By ALLISON SELK

Shaw Media correspondent MORRIS – Richard Olson remembered his baby sister as the little girl who ran around her family farm with ponytails flopping as she played with the animals. And how that little farm girl grew up into a professional woman with a big heart.

Morris lost one of its strongest advocates this week as lifetime resident Terri Gilmoure died Wednesday. Gilmoure, who had leukemia, led a busy life as a business owner, a philanthropist and wife to her husband, Norman.

Olson said the leukemia took a toll on his sister, who loved to garden and the outdoors, and when the doctor explained it was time to work on her bucket list, she and her husband bought a cabin in the North Woods of Wisconsin.

“They only had about a year to enjoy the cabin, but Terri would get up north and cry because she was so happy to be there, then she would cry on the way home because she would miss it,” Olson said.

Gilmoure was known for her work with Country Financial. Agency manager Mark Hunt said she began her career there as an assistant to Dan Beeler, and she took over when he retired in 2003.

“In a business perspective, our highest award at Country Financial is the ‘All-American Award’ for top producing agents. Terri earned this title three times, so she was clearly successful,” Hunt said. “Plus, she wanted to her own business to thrive, as well as others in the city of Morris and the county, which speaks volumes of her heart and character.”

Gilmoure was president of the Morris Hospital Foundation Board; Ambassador Club and board member for the Grundy County Chamber of Commerce; and participated in the Morris Retail Association, according to her obituary from Reeves and Baskerville Funeral Homes.

Chamber Executive Director Christina Van Yperen said that as an ambassador, Gilmoure was a liaison for all members. She was the first to greet a new business owner, and would provide

monthly check-up visits to members.

Caroline Portlock, the Chamber’s former director, said Gilmoure went from being a Chamber member to an integral part of the Chamber’s success because she was humble and made others want to better themselves.

“She would take a new member under her arm and introduce them to people and make them feel welcome. I always appreciated and valued that about her,” Portlock said. “On a philanthropic standpoint, we have lost one of our biggest cheerleaders, and I hope we can continue to carry the torch.”

Friend of 30 years and Morris Hospital Foundation Board Vice President George McComb said he had served on the board for the past two years with Gilmoure. He said Gilmoure made sure everyone on the board was active and had a goal to bring the community into the hospital projects.

When asked what word best described Gilmoure, McComb replied with the word “vibrant.”

“She always had a smile on her face and she was always chuckling and laughing,” he said. “She was a very positive person.”

Friends may call from 4 to 7 p.m.

Monday at the First Presbyterian Church, 200 E. Jackson St. in Morris. A memorial service is scheduled for 7 p.m.

Everyone in attendance reaches out to touch the home during Saturday’s Habitat for Humanity home blessing.

CREST HILL – Despite the rain, people gathered Saturday morning around the 75th Will County Habitat for Humanity house on Nicholson Street in Crest Hill to bless the newest home and the family living inside it.

“We are not going to let the rain dampen our spirits,” Crest Hill Mayor Ray Soliman said. “This is a prime example of all organizations and people working together.”

Habitat for Humanity staff and Lockport Township High School building and trades students who worked on the home were joined by city officials, Habitat co-founders Joe Adler and Bob Stephen, and members of the Susner family, who donated the land, to celebrate with homeowners Francisco and Maria Reyes and their 8-year-old son, Benzi Reyes.

Through tears of joy, Francisco thanked everyone who had a part in making his family’s American dream come true.

“We are very happy and so grateful for what all of you guys did for us,” Francisco said. “We want to say thank you, thank God and God bless you.”

Habitat Director of Family Services Ron Novak gave a brief history of the Reyes family. After living 20 years in California, Francisco met Maria and they moved to the Midwest. Francisco has worked tirelessly at Joliet Junior College to make a good life for his family.

Their home in Joliet for the past three years was a nightmare, with leaky faucets and windows, endless loud music and cockroaches, Novak said.

“Now they have a quiet, safe place

Lockport Township High School graduate who worked on the home to sleep at night; everything that every parent wishes for their children,” Novak said Nicole Murray, Habitat executive director, presented a Bible to the Reyes family as people gathered on the front porch. Everyone placed a hand on the home’s exterior as Novak read the blessing.

The land where the home was built was donated by the Susner family in memory of the late Donald Susner.

Donald was a builder and property owner in the area, said Jack Susner, Donald’s brother. After Donald died, the family decided to donate the Nicholson Street property to Habit for Humanity.

Lockport Township High School graduates Robby Olson and Michael Franc were in a class that put up the frame and did the rough work on the home. Both are now at Joliet Junior College and came back to see the finished product.

“It’s a good feeling,” Franc said. “It’s nice to do some good.”

While Habitat staff brought cake, treats and drinks, set up in the driveway under tents, inside Francisco and Maria were cooking up red chili and rice and Polish sausage with Mexican bread as a way of saying thank you.

“We wanted to offer something Mexican to eat,” Francisco said. “There are no words, we are so happy.”

One resident plans to run for D-210 board Petitions circulating for school board seats since Sept. 20

By FELIX SARVER

fsarver@shawmedia.com NEW LENOX – So far, one Lincoln-Way District 210 board hopeful has taken out a petition to run in the April 4 election.

Sept. 20 was the first day for petitions to circulate for candidates interested in running for school boards in Will County for the April 4 election.

The candidate filing period is Dec. 12 to 19; taking out petition packets does not commit someone to submitting them to get on the ballot.

As of Friday, Mokena resident Ben Yomtoob has been the only candidate to take out a petition packet for Lincoln-Way District 210.

According to the Will County Clerk’s 2015 government directory, terms will expire next year for Board President Dee Molinare and board members

Chris Kosel and Joseph Kosteck. The board had to fill a vacant seat this year after the resignation of Arvid Johnson, whose term would have been up next year.

It’s not yet known whether current board members plan to run. Molinare stated in an email she was not aware which members have taken out packets or plan to, and stated she would have to survey the members.

Liz Sands, president of Lincoln-Way Area Taxpayers Unite, said Friday that she didn’t know of anyone from the group who plans to run, but she did know some people who expressed interest.

“Outside of that, that’s all I know,” she said.

LWATU, a resident group formed last year, have been active in investigating District 210. Group members have criticized district officials at

meetings for lack of transparency and financial mismanagement.

The group unsuccessfully sued the district’s board this year to keep Lincoln-Way North High School from closing. The board approved closing North as part of a plan to fix the district’s worsening financial issues.

Yomtoob, who said he’s been a Mokena resident since last October after moving from Lincolnshire, plans to run for a seat. He served on the Lincolnshire-Prairie View School District 103 board and he said education has been a passion of his.

“It’s kind of a family business in a way,” he said, referring to several of his family members working in schools. “I see it as an opportunity to give back to the community.”

Yomtoob spoke at the Sept. 22 board meeting, where he said it’s clear there’s been challenges the board and adminis-

At the meeting, he recommended the board prepare responses to public comment after the meeting and post them to the district’s website; be upfront about items discussed in closed session; make all board packets available; and reconcile with the community.

He previously applied for a vacant seat on the board after former Board President Kevin Molloy and board member Christopher McFadden resigned in January. He said he wasn’t picked because he didn’t live in the district long enough.

The therapy was exceptional and the 24-hour nurses and CNAs were so helpful and patient. They pay attention to the littlest details and respond quickly. I can’t say enough about the food – there is such a variety. Three wonderful meals a day with restaurant service is just amazing.

NEW LENOX – Discord between the Lincoln-Way District 210 board and the public was still apparent at Thursday’s meeting, with one resident denouncing the behavior of one board member.

During public comment at Thursday’s meeting, John Perish, a former Frankfort village trustee, told board member Christopher Kosel that his warnings to the audience before Finance Committee meetings should “cease and desist.”

“It is unnecessary and borders on being abusive, threatening and intimidating. Trust our security officers know their jobs and will take the appropriate steps if warranted,” Perish said.

Kosel also told Perish his comments at the Sept. 22 regular board meeting – which he led in the absence of Board President Dee Molinare and Vice President Christine Glatz – were to make sure everyone’s voices were heard, whether they’re “for or against this board.”

At that meeting, Tim Conway, president of the Lincoln-Way Education Association, spoke at public comment and after he finished, Kosel said Conway was interrupted. During Conway’s speech, there were minimal interruptions.

“I do want everybody to be able to have their voice heard here and I will warn everyone that if someone is interrupting someone else during the process, we will have them escorted from the building,” Kosel said.

Kosel was met with “Wow,” and a sarcastic “Way to go!” from the audience.

Will County sheriff deputies are typically present at meetings and will approach speakers who have exceeded time allotted for public comment.

Molinare stated in an email that she couldn’t “comment on the reminder to maintain decorum during the meeting of [Sept. 22], as that is an individual’s perception.”

“As I and fellow Board of Education members have been [attending] community events this summer and fall, we have heard many residents thank us for our service,” Molinare stated.

Tensions between the board and residents have been high all year, as District 210 has been rocked by controversies that included four board resignations and investigations by the Department of Justice and the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Some residents have repeatedly demanded the resignation of board members and Superintendent Scott Tingley.

Mokena resident Ben Yomtoob, who plans to run for a board seat next April, said at the Sept. 22 meeting that there is a need to build trust.

“You need to do much more to be transparent and begin to rebuild the trust,” Yomtoob said, later adding, “There has not been the accounting this community needs to begin to heal itself and find a way to move forward.”

Melanie Troyer said at Thursday’s meeting that when she comes to the meetings and watches what happens, she walks away feeling “there’s such arrogance here.”

She said she knows the board and administration is under a lot of pressure and scrutiny, but she asked them to put themselves in the residents’ shoes.

“One of the main things I learned is that there is whole lot to be said for humility. … I have yet to hear an apology, I have yet to hear accountability from people. … I cannot believe that you haven’t taken responsibility for [these] things. These were all under your watch,” Troyer said.

Non-emergency phone lines go down again for brief time The non-emergency phone lines were briefly down again Friday morning for the Shorewood and Lockport police departments.

Both municipalities sent out email and text alerts about 8 a.m. Friday through the Nixle notification system noting their respective police department’s non-emergency phone lines were down. The non-emergency lines also were down on Thursday for a few hours for those two towns, as well as for Channahon.

Steve Rauter, executive director of

the Western Will County Communication Center, said in a phone interview shortly before 10 a.m. Friday that things had returned to normal.

Rauter said Thursday that the departments with lines that went down are customers of the telephone service provider Call One, and that Call One’s remote call forwarding – the way a first response provider transmits a call to the person or service that answers it – was not working.

He said Friday that the Call One issue was repaired late Thursday, but the same issue cropped up again overnight.

Summit offers insight on mental illness, gang trends

By MIKE MALLORY

mmallory@shawmedia.com NEW LENOX – Two long-standing issues among youth in Will County and in many other areas of the country were discussed Friday morning at the 2016 Will County Youth Provider Summit.

The event was at the Silver Cross Hospital Conference Center in New Lenox and hosted by the Workforce Investment Board of Will County. It offered education and networking opportunities for individuals and groups who work with youth, including those in the education, support services and health fields.

Two hours into the schedule, which began with registration at 7:30 a.m., attendees chose between two breakout sessions. In one conference room, Silver Cross Hospital Director of Behavioral Health Services Stephen Kehoe gave a presentation on the mental health needs of adolescents and young adults.

One slide from Kehoe’s presentation outlined the difference between “normal adolescence” and early warning signs of mental illness. Kehoe explained

Attendees of the 2016 Will County Youth Provider Summit listen Friday to a presentation

by Silver Cross Hospital’s Director of Behavioral Health Services Stephen Kehoe about mental health needs of adolescents and young adults. that the nature, intensity and duration of feelings or behaviors among teens is a key differentiating factor between the two.

Kehoe said sometimes it’s not one or two events that cause teens to experience post-traumatic stress, but repeated events. Kehoe said in his work with abused and neglected children, he never met a victim who either didn’t blame themselves or didn’t feel bad about

what happened, as if it was their fault.

He also said he could spend hours on teenage suicide, as it is the third-leading cause of death in people between 15 and 24 years old.

In a conference room across the hallway, Joliet Police Det. Sgt. Chris Moore updated those in attendance on current gang trends.

The number of guns in Joliet has gone up, but the amount of guns carried

by people has gone down, Moore said.

The same could be said for drugs.

Oftentimes, a search of individuals won’t find either item but Moore said they’re usually in the area. He mentioned that four or five people have found guns hidden in their yards of late.

Many attendees of the gang presentation were in the education field. Moore said schools are where the recruiting typically occurs but most of the serious gang activity takes place outside of schools. He added he wishes there was more metal detecting done at Joliet high schools because it’s only a matter of time before something happens.

Joliet police are finding that people from other communities, such as Naperville, are coming to the east side for drugs. Moore said police have heard users feel safer coming to the east side than going to Chicago.

There were other presentations throughout the day about identity theft, cyber safety consulting and a formula for LinkedIn success. Opening comments were delivered by Silver Cross Hospital Vice President of Human Resources Mark Jepson and Will County Executive Larry Walsh Sr.

U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt sits Aug. 20, 1933, in his car with his daughter, Anna Eleanor Dall, and her two children, Anna Eleanor Roosevelt and Curtis Roosevelt, as he arrived back his home in Hyde Park, N.Y., to resume his vacation following an eventful week in Washington dealing with the National Recovery Administration. Curtis Roosevelt, who lived in the White House as a child when his grandfather was president and worked for two decades at the U.N., has died at 86 on Wednesday.

Curtis Roosevelt, FDR’s oldest grandchild, dies at 86

By ANGELA CHARLTON The Associated Press

PARIS – Curtis Roosevelt, who lived in the White House as a child when his grandfather was president and worked for two decades at the United Nations, has died at 86.

The oldest grandchild of Franklin D. and Eleanor Roosevelt died of a heart attack in Saint-Bonnet-du-Gard in southern France on Sep. 26.

Curtis Roosevelt insisted in writing before his death that he didn’t want a funeral service. Instead, according to his widow, Marina Roosevelt, he said, “If you must do something, then get together and have a good time, with wine and cheese, and make awful martinis like my grandfather did.”

Roosevelt’s childhood in the spotlight marked the rest of his life, as did his grandfather’s exceptional legacy.

Curtis Roosevelt, born April 19, 1930, when his grandfather was governor of New York, was the son of Anna Roosevelt, the president’s eldest child and only daughter.

Curtis and his younger sister, Anna, moved in with their grandparents as his father Curtis Bean Dall’s stock market career suffered in the Depression and his parents divorced. Dubbed “Buzzie” and “Sistie,” they lived relatively shielded from the difficulty of the era,

shuttling between Washington and vacations at the Roosevelt family estate in Hyde Park, N.Y. The children lived in the White House for several years until their mother married a newspaper reporter John Boettiger.

“He never really got over those early impressions,” his sister, Anna Eleanor Seagraves, said Saturday from her home in Bethesda, Maryland. Their lives took different paths, and she described their relations as “cordial” but not close — until their elderly years, when they re-established a bond.

Curtis Roosevelt went on to work as an educator and political reformer in New York, and then became a diplomat at the U.N. from 1964 to 1983, where he notably served as liaison with nongovernmental organizations. He was following in the footsteps of his grandmother, Eleanor Roosevelt, who was a member of the first American delegation to the U.N. in 1945, and later served as chairman of the U.N. Commission on Human Rights from 1947 to 1951.

In his memoirs, Curtis Roosevelt had both praise and criticism for his grandparents, seeing them as more engrossed in world politicking than family matters. But they always loomed large for him, Marina Roosevelt told The Associated Press from their home in SaintBonnet-du-Gard.

STATE

23

The ASSOCIATED PRESS SPRINGFIELD – Small and medium-sized public universities hurt by the state’s historic budget standoff saw the biggest enrollment declines this year compared with similar-sized schools in nearby states.

The nonpartisan Illinois Campaign for Political Reform said in a report released this week that Chicago State University’s enrollment declined by nearly 25 percent – the largest decrease among schools with fewer than 10,000 students.

Eastern Illinois University had the third-highest decline in that group at 13 percent.

The report compared the schools with universities in Missouri, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Wisconsin and Kentucky.

Enrollment at Southern Illinois University at Carbondale decreased by 7.5 percent. That was the largest enrollment decrease among universities serving between 10,000 and 20,000 students. Western Illinois University, which is also in that size category, saw enrollment decrease by 6.5 percent – the second largest decrease in that group.

The Springfield bureau of Lee Enterprises newspapers said the report

ILLINOIS

ROUNDUP

emphasized that several factors besides the state budget impasse could have contributed to the declines. But university officials and lawmakers have said high school counselors have been encouraging students to apply out of state because of Illinois’

financial uncertainty.

SIU spokeswoman Rae Goldsmith said state universities’ efforts to recruit students will continue to be negatively affected by the lack of a state budget.

“It is still going to hang over us

and many other public institutions in the state as along as the budget impasse continues,” Goldsmith said.

The state has gone without a full budget since July 1, 2015, because of an ideological battle between Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner and Democrats who control the Legislature.

The state is currently operating under a six-month stopgap budget, and universities received a small boost in funding in April.

But before that infusion of cash, they had gone nearly a year without state support, prompting Chicago State University to lay off about 300 staffers and at one point the school considered closing its doors.

“Without drawing a direct correlation, I think we all should be a little bit alarmed at what we’re seeing and hopefully keep this in mind when it comes time to renegotiate the stopgap budget,” said Sarah Brune, the executive director of the Illinois Campaign for Political Reform.

Illinois’ larger universities, those with more than 20,000 students, have fared better than smaller institutions. Illinois State University and the University of Illinois’ three campuses saw slight enrollment increases, ranging from 0.2 percent and 1.8 percent.

Invasive stink bug spreads to more Illinois counties

CHAMPAIGN – University of Illinois researchers said an invasive variety of stink bug is spreading in the state.

Kelly Estes is cooperative agricultural pest survey coordinator at the university’s Prairie Research Institute.

She said in a news release Friday that brown marmorated stink bugs have been found in five new, widely scattered Illinois counties.

The insect’s presence was recently confirmed in Macon, Winnebago, Clinton, Effingham and Stephenson counties.

The stink bugs were first found in the state in 2010 in Cook County and in the East St. Louis area.

The bugs feed on a wide variety of host plants in gardens, orchards and fields.

Estes said the bugs often winter in homes, and with the onset of cooler weather, may be seen on houses looking to find shelter for the winter.

Chicago apartments once home to cultural icons reopen

CHICAGO – Chicago’s Rosenwald Courts Apartments have reopened after years of sitting vacant on the city’s South Side, bringing new life to a historic complex once home to composer Quincy Jones, boxer Joe Louis, poet Gwendolyn Brooks and singer Nat King Cole.

The apartments first opened in 1929 in Chicago’s Grand Boulevard neighborhood. The goal of Sears, Roebuck & Co. President Julius Rosenwald was to provide decent housing for African-Americans at time of strict segregation.

The more than 400-unit complex became vacant in 2000. It was rehabilitated over two years into 239 oneand two-bedroom units for seniors and families at a cost $132 million.

In a statement Friday, Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel said the restoration means Rosenwald Courts will bring new economic opportunities and affordable housing to the neighborhood.

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump signs a hat after a rally Friday in Novi, Mich.

Unscripted Trump eclipses his own economic message

By STEVE PEOPLES

The Associated Press

NOVI, Mich. – Thousands of Michigan voters roared with approval as Donald Trump lashed out at an economic system he said was rigged against everyday Americans. They cheered louder when he declared that Hillary Clinton was to blame.

“I am going to fight so hard for all of you,” the Republican presidential nominee boomed as he read from a teleprompter, “and I am going to bring back the jobs that have been stripped away from you and your country.”

Friends and foes agree he is at his best in those scripted moments. But Trump’s frequent unscripted moments are often drowning them out – diverting attention from his economic message and alienating women and minorities with early voting already underway in some states.

The Friday night speech was the latest example of Trump’s sharpened focus on the economy – and his Democratic opponent’s shortcomings – as he treks across the Midwestern battlegrounds he needs to become the 45th president of the United States.

But on Twitter and in interviews, the former reality television star this week fueled a self-inflicted political firestorm after an underwhelming debate performance by attacking a former Miss Universe, first seizing on her weight and then calling on the world to view her “sex tape.”

“He’s not going to change. This is who he really is,” said former Minnesota Congressman Vin Weber, a Republican. “It’s ridiculous to even argue this, but if he could stay on message, which is to say if he could be somebody else, he could win.”

Lifelong Republican loyalists across the country are beyond frustrated that Trump’s dueling personas appear to be jeopardizing the

GOP’s chance to take back the White House.

Despite Trump’s faults, Clinton remains deeply unpopular and untrusted by a large segment of the electorate.

Yet there is little room in the national conversation for Clinton’s faults when Trump tweets about sex tapes.

Ohio GOP Chairman Matt Borges calls Clinton a “liar” and said she deserves to lose. “And just when it’s looking like it’s a good bet that she will lose, we’re talking about things that I believe don’t help us win,” he says.

There is little sign that Trump’s approach will help him expand his support beyond the white working-class voters who cram into his rallies. During Monday’s opening debate, the New York billionaire said African American voters are “living in hell.” And his four-day feud with former Miss Universe Alicia Machado, a Venezuelan who is now an American citizen, threatens to push his already-low standing among women and Hispanics even lower.

Trump is also gambling he can help himself by highlighting Clinton’s role in her husband’s infidelities.

“Hillary was an enabler,” Trump told the New York Times on Friday. “And she attacked the women who Bill Clinton mistreated afterward. I think it’s a serious problem for them, and it’s something that I’m considering talking about more in the near future.”

That’s even as Trump’s acknowledged his own marital infidelities, although he tried to draw a distinction with Bill Clinton. “I wasn’t president of the United States,” he told the Times when asked about his affair with Marla Maples when he was married to Ivana Trump.

“I don’t talk about it.”

Machado took to Facebook to say Trump’s tweets were part of a pattern of “demoralizing women,” calling them “cheap lies with bad intentions.”

Workers set up a board as protection against Hurricane Matthew on Saturday in an hotel in Kingston, Jamaica. breathed a sigh of relief as the storm triggered heavy flooding in towns along the La Guajira peninsula of Colombia, but damage overall was minimal. Some officials were even grateful for the rain after a multi-year drought in the poverty-stricken area.

“Families that evacuated are returning to their homes,” said La Guajira Gov. Jorge Velez. “The dikes and wells filled up, the earth is moist, and this benefits agriculture in an area where it hasn’t rained for five years, benefiting the community.”

Authorities say that at least 27 houses were damaged and two roads were washed out. One person, a 67-year indigenous man, was carried away to his death by a flash flood in an area where it hadn’t rained for four years.

Elsewhere, all across Colombia’s Caribbean coastline, authorities have set up emergency shelters, closed access to beaches and urged residents living near the ocean to move inland in preparation for storm surges that they said will reach their most-intense moment sometime Saturday.

Russia warns against U.S. attack on Syrian forces

By BASSEM MROUE The Associated Press

BEIRUT – Russia warned the United States on Saturday against carrying out any attacks on Syrian government forces, saying it would have repercussions across the Middle East as government forces captured a hill on the edge of the northern city of Aleppo under the cover of airstrikes.

Meanwhile, airstrikes on Aleppo struck a hospital in the eastern rebel-held neighborhood of Sakhour on Saturday, putting it out of service, according to the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights and the Local Coordination Committees. They said at least one person was killed in the airstrike.

Russian news agencies quoted Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova as saying that a U.S. inter-

vention against the Syrian army “will lead to terrible, tectonic consequences not only on the territory of this country, but also in the region on the whole.”

She said regime change in Syria would create a vacuum that would be “quickly filled” by “terrorists of all stripes.”

U.S.-Russian tensions over Syria have escalated since the breakdown of a cease-fire last month, with each side blaming the other for its failure. Syrian government forces backed by Russian warplanes have launched a major onslaught on rebel-held parts of Aleppo.

Syrian troops pushed ahead in their offensive in Aleppo on Saturday capturing the strategic Um al-Shuqeef hill near the Palestinian refugee camp of Handarat that government forces captured from rebels earlier this week, according to state TV. The hill is on the northern edge of the Aleppo, Syr-

ia’s largest city and former commercial center.

The powerful ultraconservative Ahrar al-Sham militant group said rebels regained control Saturday of several positions they lost in Aleppo in the Bustan al-Basha neighborhood.

State media said 13 people were wounded when rebels shelled the central government-held neighborhood of Midan.

In the rebel-held portion of Aleppo, opposition activist Ahmad Alkhatib described the hospital, known as M10, as one of the largest in Aleppo. He posted photographs on his Twitter account showing the damage, including beds covered with dust, a hole in its roof and debris covering the street outside.

A doctor at the hospital told the Aleppo Media Center, an activist collective, that thousands of people were treated in the compound in the past adding that

two people were killed in Saturday’s airstrikes and several were wounded.

“A real catastrophe will hit medical institutions in Aleppo if the direct shelling continues to target hospitals and clinics,” said the doctor whose name was not given. He said the whole hospital is out of service.

Opposition activists have blamed the President Bashar Assad’s forces and Russia for airstrikes that hit Civil Defense units and clinics in the city where eastern rebel-held neighborhoods are besieged by government forces and pro-government militiamen.

On Friday, the international medical humanitarian organization Doctors Without Borders demanded that the Syrian government and its allies “halt the indiscriminate bombing that has killed and wounded hundreds of civilians – many of them children,” over the past week in Aleppo.

• Sunday, October 2, 2016

KINGSTON, Jamaica – One of the most powerful Atlantic hurricanes in recent history roared over the open Caribbean Sea on Saturday on a course that threatened Jamaica, Haiti and Cuba.

Matthew briefly reached the top hurricane classification, Category 5, and was the strongest Atlantic hurricane since Felix in 2007.

The U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami said Matthew’s winds had slipped slightly from a peak of 160 mph to a still-potentially devastating 150 mph, a Category 4 storm. It was expected to near eastern Jamaica and southwestern Haiti on Monday.

The latest forecast had Matthew’s path passing closer to Haiti than before and the center issued a hurricane warning for Jamaica and “much of Haiti,” and said life-threatening rainfall was expected in parts of the impoverished Caribbean nation.

The forecast track would also carry Matthew across Cuba and into the Bahamas, with an outside chance of a brush with Florida, although that would be several days away.

“It’s too early to rule out what impacts, if any, would occur in the United States and Florida,” said Dennis Feltgen, a spokesman at the Hurricane Center.

As Matthew skimmed past the northern tip of South America, there were reports of at least one death – the second attributed to the storm.

Authorities in the area overall

There’s also concern that heavy rain across much of the country this weekend could dampen turnout for a nationwide referendum Sunday on a historic peace accord between the government and leftist rebels.

In Jamaica, high surf began pounding the coast and flooding temporarily closed the road linking the capital to its airport. Carl Ferguson, head of the marine police, said people were starting to heed calls to relocate from small islands and areas near rural waterways.

Residents of the capital, Kingston, crowded supermarkets to buy bottled water, canned food and batteries, and there was already flooding in the coastal town of Port Royal, where officials were urging residents to seek refuge in government shelters once they open up on Sunday.

Many Jamaicans also began stocking up for the emergency.

At the Azan Super Centre, a supermarket in Kingston, shoppers were scooping up flashlights and gas lamps and other key supplies along with food.

The kerosene was already sold out.

“It has been chaos from the morning,” owner Melain Azan said.

Shopper Nardia Powell said she was stocking up because she learned a hard lesson when she was unprepared for Hurricane Ivan in 2004, as were many others. “So, I just want to be on the safe side, right?” she said.

Feltgen said storm force winds and rain will arrive well before the center of the storm. Jamaicans “basically have daylight today, they have tonight and they have daylight tomorrow to take care of what needs to be done,” he said.

Decisions that made the Nobel Prizes look bad

By KARL RITTER

The Associated Press STOCKHOLM – Nobel Prizes cannot be revoked, so the judges must put a lot of thought into their selections for the six awards, which will be announced in the next two weeks.

A discovery might seem groundbreaking today, but will it stand the test of time?

Prize founder Alfred Nobel wanted to honor those whose discoveries created “the greatest benefit to mankind.” Here are four Nobel Prize decisions that, in hindsight, seem questionable:

When a German who organized poison gas attacks won the chemistry prize

Fritz Haber was awarded the 1918 chemistry award for discovering how to create ammonia from nitrogen and hydrogen gases. His method was used to manufacture fertilizers and delivered a major boost to agriculture worldwide.

But the Nobel committee completely overlooked Haber’s role in chemical warfare during World War I. Enthusiastically supporting the German war effort, he supervised the first major chlorine gas attack at Ypres, Belgium, in 1915, which killed thousands of Allied troops.

••• When chemistry prize honored man who found use for DDT, which was later banned The 1948 medicine prize to Swiss scientist Paul Mueller honored a discovery that ended up doing both good and bad.

Mueller didn’t invent dichlorodiphenyltricloroethane, or DDT, but he discovered that it was a powerful pesticide that could kill lots of flies, mosquitoes and beetles in a short time.

The compound proved very effective

in protecting agricultural crops and fighting insect-borne diseases such as typhus and malaria. DDT saved hundreds of thousands of lives and helped eradicate malaria from southern Europe.

But in the 1960s environmentalists found that DDT was poisoning wildlife and the environment. The U.S. banned DDT in 1972, and in 2001 it was banned by an international treaty, although exemptions are allowed for some countries fighting malaria.

••• When the man who invented lobotomy won the medicine prize Carving up people’s brains may have seemed like a good idea at the time. But in hindsight, rewarding Portuguese scientist Antonio Egas Moniz in 1949 for inventing lobotomy to treat mental illness wasn’t the Nobel Prizes’ finest hour.

The method became very popular in the 1940s, and at the award ceremony it was praised as “one of the most important discoveries ever made in psychiatric therapy.”

But it had serious side effects: Some patients died and others were left severely brain damaged. Even operations that were considered successful left patients unresponsive and emotionally numb.

••• When India’s Mahatma Gandhi didn’t win the peace prize The Indian independence leader, considered one of history’s great champions of nonviolent struggle, was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize no fewer than five times. He never won.

The peace prize committee, which rarely concedes a mistake, eventually acknowledged that not awarding Gandhi was an omission.

Looking at the labor force and diamonds

Dear Mr. Berko: Recently, I’ve been hearing the term “labor force participation rate” on most of the news shows. Could you please explain what this term means in simple-to-understand English? And what do you think of investing in diamonds? A jeweler friend says the price of diamonds has fallen by 40 percent. He wants four of us (all five of us are friends) to invest $250,000 in gem-quality diamonds. He and each of us would put up $50,000.

What do you think? – EP, Bethlehem,

Pennsylvania Dear EP: I think it’s a good way for

five people to destroy a friendship.

The only thing that makes a 5-carat flawless diamond a wonder to look at is the realization of how much some silly ass is willing to pay for it. Prices have fallen because of a glut in diamond production and a slump in Chinese consumer demand. Top-quality cut diamonds are down from $12,500 a carat in 2012 to $7,300 today, according to a diamond consortium.

But making matters worse are companies such as California’s Diamond Foundry. Diamond Foundry’s laboratories have recently been producing rough diamonds that are so realistic

TAKING STOCK Malcolm Berko it’s nearly impossible, even for experienced gemologists, to tell the difference from the real McCoy. Diamond Foundry and others have been perfecting gem-quality stones for jewelry by using chemical vapor deposition, a technology commonly used in the manufacturing of semiconductors. Atomized gases, from a plasma reactor that’s as hot as the sun, produce carbon atoms. These carbon atoms attach to the crystal lattice of a natural diamond substrate, enabling a new diamond to grow. They can be cut as exquisitely as a genuine diamond and cost about 30 percent less than a natural stone.

Meanwhile, Leonardo DiCaprio, star of the film “Blood Diamond,” is backing these stones as “morally pure.” This plays on the social consciousness of millennials, who represent a large portion of this market.

OUR VIEW

Love, prayers go with soldiers on deployment There are likely tears being shed as more than 100 Army Reserve soldiers from the Elwood-based 251st Inland Cargo Transportation Company get ready to head overseas.

Some were tears of pride, for the bravery and sacrifice being made by these soldiers.

Some were of love – for the husband or wife, son or daughter, brother or sister, or friend who would be sorely missed during the next year. And some were likely tinged with a little bit of fear, because a loved one was headed overseas, for a long time.

A farewell ceremony, held Saturday at Plainfield South High School, was for the men and women who are preparing for deployment to Kuwait for approximately one year in support of Operation Spartan Shield.

As part of Operation Spartan Shield, the unit’s mission in a deployed environment is to discharge, load and transship cargo at air, rail or truck terminals, Theater Distribution Centers and Central Receiving & Shipping Points, as well as conduct inland cargo transfer platoon operations, and provide cargo movement documentation and in-transit visibility services.

It can be easy to forget that this country is still fighting in wars. We may struggle to remember there are soldiers away from their families, missing milestones like the birth of a child, a graduation, the death of a beloved friend.

It’s not on purpose: It’s just when it doesn’t touch us personally, and when we don’t see or hear about it every day, it can fade from our minds.

There were about 1.3 million people who are active duty military personnel in the various armed services branches as of July 31, according to the Department of Defense.

About 150,000 of those are stationed overseas.

Freedoms we cherish are fought by these men and women. Many of us do not make the decision to put on an armed services uniform and put our lives on the line in the name of preserving those freedoms.

We need to thank the ones who do.

Soldiers from the 251st Inland Cargo Transportation Company, we are grateful for your service. We pray God watches over you during your deployment. We hope your families get the support they need while you are gone. And we pray you safely return home when your service is complete.

MIDLIFE CIRCUS Bill Wimbiscus “Sure,” I replied, knowing full well that “can” is an order, not a suggestion, and that by “we” she meant “you.” But, heck, paint is cheap. And even I can find the handle on a brush.

“And can we replace all the old hinges with pretty silver ones?”

“Sure,” I replied. I mean, how hard could it be to replace a hinge?

“And can we replace the range hood with a microwave?”

“Sure,” I replied, knowing full well that I had no idea how to remove the 50-year-old contraption from the cabinets, let alone how to hook up a new one.

It all started more or less smoothly.

The cabinet doors came off with relative ease. And it took only a quick degreasing, a light sanding and four coats of one-coat enamel to cover up the old finish. Two weeks later I was ready to hang them back up. It was only at that point I discovered none of the holes on the new hinges lined up with the old holes in the cabinets.

Oops.

The range hood came down next, with much wailing and gnashing of teeth, in a variety of bits and pieces. In the process, I managed to avoid major damage to the cabinets and the back wall. Which, after the hinge debacle,

gave me a false sense of hope.

That hope was dashed, however, as soon as I attempted to install the replacement range hood/microwave.

Finding a stud to attach the wall mount to was my first challenge.

Now locating a stud shouldn’t be that hard to do. Generally there should be one behind the wall every 16 inches. That’s not the case with my house, however, which apparently was built sometime in the late Pleistocene Epoch, when our carpenter ancestors used the length of their forearm as standard measurement. So of course there’s no stud at 16 inches. Or 32 inches. Or 48. Or at any of the other dozen test holes I drill into the wall.

No sweat. I pull out the stud finder, an electronic gizmo that beeps anytime it detects a metal nail on the other side of the wall. I run the stud finder along the wall and it starts beeping all over the place. I resume drilling, but again come up empty each time.

Maybe it’s the drill, I figure, and replace the tiny 1/8 bit I’ve been using with a great big 11/64 monster.

I punch it through and my efforts are immediately rewarded by a loud crash in the next room. Turns out the whole time I’ve been drilling into the pantry on the other side of the wall. And instead of hitting a stud, I’ve managed to hit a can of Le Sueur Very Young Small Sweet Peas.

Eventually, after much cursing and screaming, I somehow manage to

secure the wall mount to the wall. The next step, according to the directions, is to carefully hang the microwave hood on the wall mount and then gently rotate it up into place. The device is 29 3/4 inches wide and needs a minimum of 30 inches clearance, the standard width between cabinets on either side of a stove.

Except my kitchen wasn’t built to modern standards, it was built to some caveman’s idea of perfection.

Which means instead of the minimum 30 inches clearance, I have only 29 7/8 inches. Which means try as I might, I can neither gently rotate nor aggressively jam it into place. Which means I have to pick up an extra 1/8 of inch somewhere.

An hour of furious sanding later – during which I manage to remove four coats of new paint, three coats of old paint, plus the original stain and varnish and a good bit of oak – the unit finally slides into place.

Just in time to illustrate the final aspect of the DIY disorder: codependency.

“Wow, that looks great,” Sara said.

“You know what would even look better? If you put in a tile backsplash underneath it.”

“Sure,” I reply.

Uh, anyone know how to set tile?

The definition of mental illness is any disorder that affects mood, thinking and behavior, the classics being anxiety, depression, schizophrenia and addiction.

Most of these illnesses have odd little abbreviations, which the doctor surreptitiously writes down while taking notes during your annual office visit. Usually while nodding his head and saying something like “Hmmm, yes, I see” in a sympathetic voice.

Abbreviations like BPD, which stands for Borderline Personality Disorder. Or the ever-popular OCD. Good ol’ Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.

But there’s one abbreviation they never write down. One disorder they never talk about. One illness they won’t even admit exists, even though it affects 70 percent of the population.

Its symptoms involve physical abuse, including self-induced cuts and contusions by hand tools, like self-injury disorder. And compulsive utterance of obscenities, like Tourette’s syndrome. And constant repetition of meaningless tasks, just like OCD. What is this debilitating condition you ask?

It’s called DIY. Do It Yourself. The obsessive need to recklessly improve your domicile on your own rather than contracting a qualified expert.

DIY often starts out small. My most recent attack certainly did.

“Honey, can we paint the kitchen cabinets?” Sara asked a few weeks ago.

PLAINFIELD – Even though his team had won its last two games while Plainfield Central was winless, Joliet West football coach Jason Aubry knew that the Tigers would be in for a battle when they played in the Wildcats’ homecoming game on Saturday.

And some rain at the outset certainly didn’t help West’s cause. But to its credit, it was able to prevent Central from capitalizing on some early opportunities and as a result, the Tigers claimed a 20-6 victory.

“They’re not a bad team,” Aubry said of the Wildcats. “They have some nice looking kids and did some good things.

When a team comes out inspired and it’s raining, that’s the great equalizer. I was happy that we took control in the second quarter, but in the second half we did some things that we shouldn’t have done. But the bottom line is the ‘W’.

“They drove the ball down the field and made some nice plays and fortunately for us, our defense stepped up and made the plays when we needed them to be done. You can’t give a team like that hope or they’re going to start feeling good. Jon (Pereiro) is doing a great job and they’re going to win some games, but it’s just going to take them some time.”

For the third time in the past four weeks, Central (0-6, 0-6) put itself in a position to snap its losing streak that extends to 2012, but it wasn’t able to capitalize on a few big breaks early and that allowed West (4-2, 4-2) to score first as it took a 13-0 halftime lead.

“We have to take opportunities,” Pereiro said. “Opportunities are never going to just fall into our laps, we have to take them and unfortunately we didn’t today. We have a good group of kids and they played hard and I’m always proud of them. But you have to take opportunities when they present themselves, and we just didn’t get that done today.

“We like what Cam Cercone gives us at quarterback and Marcus Hayes does a great job there, too. We’re looking to do some things to open our passing game. Our rush game has been good in the past, but it was not very good today.

But I give a lot of credit to West since the have a good defensive line and linebacking crew and they’re well-coached, too.”

Jordan Saxon returned an interception to the Tigers 29 on the visitor’s first series and on the next possession, Kamrin Dolbee blocked a punt to give Central the ball at West’s 13. But the Wildcats weren’t able to take advantage of the breaks.

“I love the chemistry with this team.

We always have each other’s back and when someone is down, we come and support them. We never leave anyone by themselves, we’re always there for each other.”

With the weather clearing in the final half, the Tigers went to the air more and Jaxon Aubry responded to finish 16 of 25 for 223 yards. But utilizing quarterbacks Cam Cercone and Marcus Hayes (11-75 rushing), the Wildcats also started to make noise in the third quarter.

West’s Alex Jimenez picked a pass off just in front of the end zone on the Wildcats’ first series of the second half, but West gave the ball right back to the hosts on a fumble at the Tigers 15.

34 PREP FOOTBALL: DeKALB 34, MORRIS 27

Late Morris comeback falls short vs. DeKalb

By EDDIE CARIFIO

ecarifio@shawmedia.com DeKALB – Jordan Gandy saw daylight, and instinct took over.

The DeKalb sophomore defensive back picked off Morris quarterback Ricky Del Favero on a fourth down in DeKalb territory late in the fourth quarter with the Barbs up one, returning it for a score as DeKalb won, 34-27.

Had Gandy taken a knee, DeKalb (5-1, 3-0 Northern Illinois Big 12 East) would have been able to run out the clock against Morris (4-2, 1-1). It didn’t matter, as Morris’ last-ditch drive ended with a pair of sacks by Jacob Perkins, and the Barbs were able to sew up at least a share of the conference crown.

“I was thinking score all the way, but I’ll know next time to go down,” Gandy said.

Morris took over with 2:51 left on its 46 down 28-27 after forcing a punt.

The Redskins had a third-and-1 on the DeKalb 31, but a false start and a sack set up a fourth-and-10 on the 35. Del Favero went deep and was picked off

by Gandy.

Morris coach Alan Thorson said he thought the Redskins had a good

“We always think we have a chance to win,” Thorson said. “I have a lot of confidence in these boys. That’s all we can ask for – our defense got us the ball back and we got the first down and felt real good.”

DeKalb led, 28-7, after a scoreless third quarter, but Morris ran a 10play, 83-yard drive between the third

and fourth quarters – the Redskins had just 34 yards through three quarters – to recapture some momentum after a 15-yard scoring run by Michael Feeney. Daniel Baggett blocked the kick for the Barbs.

DeKalb took over with 8:17 left but held the ball for less than a minute before punting. Morris went 50 yards in three plays, capped by an 8-yard run by Michael Gerischer. The twopoint conversion failed and the Barbs led, 28-19.

“We made some changes at halftime, but I think it was just our execution,” Thorson said. “It’s kind of more on our effort. Our kids were playing how we’re capable of playing. If we play like that, I think we can beat anybody. Not that we’ll win every game, but I think this team is good enough to hang with a lot of teams.”

The Barbs fumbled an onside kick return, and seven plays later, Feeney scored on a 13-yard score. This time Feeney ran in the conversion, and Morris was down, 28-27. Feeney finished with 76 yards and the two scores after only 5 yards through three quarters.

Derek Kyler threw for 126 yards for DeKalb, all in the first half – he was 0 for 3 with a pick in the second

half. Delvin Williams ran for 69 yards against a Morris defense that had given up 44 points total entering the game.

The game was played in a light but steady rain, and Barbs coach Matt Weckler said that took its toll on the DeKalb offense.

“The rain hindered us, but at the same time we didn’t do a good job up front,” Weckler said. “Their guys are aggressive, and they’re a big, good football team. They were 4-1 for a reason. They showed what they could do in the trenches and beat us there.”

The Barbs scored on their first two possessions to grab an early lead. A 66-yard kickoff return by Feeney set up Morris with a short field, and a penalty on DeKalb on fourth-and-2 from the 9 helped prolong the drive.

After the penalty, Kameron Dransfeldt went 5 yards for a score. But DeKalb also scored on two of its next three possessions.

“That first half I would give us an F, without a doubt,” Thorson said.

“We played a terrible first half. Obviously, credit to DeKalb. They’re a great team and we know that. But I did not like at all how our offense was playing. We weren’t moving the ball and we were opening up holes.”

PREP FOOTBALL: NORMAL 17, LINCOLN-WAY WEST 7

Lincoln-Way West can’t move chains vs. Normal

By TIM CRONIN

Shaw Media correspondent NEW LENOX – Myriad chances to capitalize on Normal Community miscues fell into Lincoln-Way West’s hands on Friday. The Warriors failed to take advantage of most of them and dropped a 17-7 nonconference decision to the Ironmen.

Normal (5-1) turned the ball over four times, which normally leads to disaster, but the Warriors (4-2) turned the ball over twice themselves, plus muffed an early punt reception, the miscue setting up the Ironmen’s first scoring drive.

Add in Normal’s take-no-prisoners defense, and it added up to a long night for West’s usually stout attack. The Warriors were held to 71 rushing yards and 174 overall, with quarterback Cal Pohrte’s 103-yard passing night on a 12-of-25 reading less than optimal.

“Our guys were challenged this

week, and I thought they played an extremely good game,” Normal coach Wes Temples said of his defense.

Pohrte hung his head after a fumbled snap on the Normal 6 with just over two minutes remaining. The drive, set up by a fumbled snap by Normal punter Dalton Tevis, was West’s best and last chance to overcome a 10-7 deficit created by Cameron Hinmon’s 22-yard field goal as the first half expired.

“They gave us chances to win and we couldn’t get it done,” West coach Dave Ernst said. “I really don’t know what happened on (Pohrte’s snap). We’ll look at the tape, see exactly what happened, and fix it.”

Hinmon’s score climaxed a seven-play sortie that covered 72 yards in only 64 seconds, and stood up as the winning margin after a second half where the Warriors threatened but were repulsed.

On the snap following Pohrte’s fumble, Varshaun Dixon ran 91

yards for an insurance score. Before that, Normal’s usually explosive offense – 246 points in the first five games – had been held in check, gaining only 67 yards on the ground.

The resolute Warriors held them to three-and-out or forced a turnover eight times in 15 possessions.

“They’ve been great all year,” Ernst said of his defense. “They were on the field the whole game.

We couldn’t move the chains.”

The Warriors were able to take advantage of only one of Normal’s three first-half turnovers, and that was thanks to ace defender Trey Telez. He snared a blocked punt out of the air on the Ironmen 22 and galloped to the end zone when Normal’s players thought the play was dead.

That evened the score at 7-all.

The Ironmen had capped a five-play drive following a muffed punt reception by the Warriors with Dixon’s 7-yard run off right guard 2:41 into the game, while rain was pelting down. Dixon finished with 161 yards

and two touchdowns on 16 carries.

“We told the guys all year long, all week long, we felt this was the most important game of the season for us because we’re playing a really good 7A team toward the second half of the season,” Ernst said.

“This was a must-win and we didn’t get it done. Now we’ll see how we handle it.”

“That’s a playoff-type football game,” Temples said.

This may not be the only time the teams meet. If West lands in Class 7A, Normal’s usual playoff bailiwick, they could meet again as early as the first round.

“If we’re 7A, I’m sure we’ll be south,” Ernst said. “If we’re 6A, I’m sure we’ll be south.”

Warriors free safety Hunter Valentine suffered a left leg injury in a pileup with 19.2 seconds left in the first half. Ernst said his left foot had already begun to turn purple before the game ended, which suggests a significant injury.

PREP FOOTBALL: ROMEOVILLE 29, MINOOKA 26

Spartans’ standout back rushes for 225 yards, four TDs

By ROB OESTERLE

roesterle@shawmedia.com

• Sunday, October 2, 2016

MINOOKA – In yet another edition of “Who Can Figure This Conference Out?” Romeoville’s Jordan Nettles took center stage at Minooka’s homecoming and led the previously winless Spartans to a 29-26 Southwest Prairie Conference win.

Nettles had already put his personal stamp on Friday night’s game before Romeoville’s final drive. By the time the drive ended, Nettles had draped himself in glory as he scored the game-winning touchdown on a spectacular 16-yard TD run, his fourth score of the game.

On second-and-7 from the Minooka 16, Nettles started to his right, found a roadblock of Minooka defenders and reversed his field. He outraced the rest of the Indians’ defense around the corner and stretched out to get the ball just inside the pylon for a touchdown with 13.7 seconds left, just before Isaiah Hill caught him and pushed him out of bounds. Quarterback Cam Neely ran in the two-point conversion to provide the final score.

“I just knew then that I had to do what I had to do to get the ball into that end zone,” Nettles said. “The offensive line did a great job all night of opening things up for me.”

Nettles scored on the Spartans’ first play from scrimmage on a 68-yard touchdown run through the middle of the Minooka defense just 17 seconds into the game.

After Minooka (3-3, 3-3) grabbed a 13-7 lead by halftime on a 6-yard TD run by Elijah Williams (18 carries, 69 yards) and two 30-yard field goals by Brennan Loughran, Nettles bobbed and weaved his way through the Minooka defense and scored on a 35-yard run with 8:32 to play in the third quarter to put Romeoville (1-5, 1-5) ahead, 14-13.

Then, in the fourth quarter, Nettles, who finished with 225 rushing yards on 28 carries, scored from 7 yards out to put Romeoville up, 21-13.

Isaiah Hill then took matters into his own capable hands for Minooka. First, Hill (seven catches, 143 yards, four carries, 47 yards) caught a 30-yard touchdown pass from backup quarterback Zach Gessner, who was 11 of 20 for 149 yards in place of the injured John Carnagio. After a 5-yard false start penalty, the two-point conversion pass failed, but Minooka was within 21-19.

Romeoville’s Jordan Nettles races to the endzone for one of his four touchdowns in the Spartans’ 29-26 victory over Minooka on Friday night at Minooka.

The Indians’ defense, highlighted by a sack by Logan O’Brien, forced a threeand-out, and Hill caught the ensuing punt at the Romeoville 49. He managed to get around the right side and turn the corner, somehow remaining inbounds to score and give Minooka a 26-21 lead with 5:01 left.

That set the stage for Nettles, who carried seven times for 51 yards on the Spartans’ winning 76-yard drive. Included was a key 3-yard gain on fourth-and-3 that was just enough to keep the drive alive with 2:07 to play. Then, after a fumbled snap lost 5 yards, Nettles ran for 17 on second-and-15 to provide another first down.

“My offensive line [Felipe Alvarez, Matthew Van Meerten, Anthony Dolgner, Thaddeus Ampadu and Scott Oderio] gave me a lot of room to run,” Nettles said. “And, the defense really stepped up when we needed it. This was a team effort, like Coach [Oliver] Gibson always tells us we need.

“It feels real good to get that first win.”

36 PREP FOOTBALL: NAZARETH 10, JOLIET CATHOLIC 0

Ke’Von-less JCA shut out by Nazareth

By DICK GOSS

dgoss@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Joliet Catholic offensive coordinator Jim Sharp glanced in the direction of running back Ke’Von Johnson and said, “He was our surprise for this week.”

Johnson, the Hilltoppers’ major offensive weapon and breakaway threat, was relegated to the sideline, wearing a knee brace, for Friday night’s East Suburban Catholic Conference homecoming game against defending Class 5A state champion Nazareth at Memorial Stadium. He was a passenger in a car that was involved in an accident Wednesday – Johnson said it hit a telephone pole – and suffered a sprained knee and some bruising.

“You can’t make this stuff up,” JCA coach Dan Sharp said, referring to the lengthy injury list. “Ke’Von was in the back seat and his knee got lodged between the seat and the console.

“We’re hoping to have him back for maybe the last two games. We’ll see.”

That’s the way things have been going for the injury-plagued Hilltop-

pers. As Sharp said, “Our defense played their hearts out,” but it wasn’t enough as Nazareth left town with a 10-0 victory.

“We’re playing with five sophomores on offense and about that many on defense,” Sharp said. “We’re basically a varsity program with a JVage team. They are battling, though.

Our seniors, I have so much respect for their attitude and work ethic. The values they are developing now will last their whole lives.”

JCA (0-6, 0-4) was in position to answer the touchdown that lifted Nazareth (3-3, 1-3) into a 7-0 lead early in the second quarter. Rio Strama returned the ensuing kickoff 38 yards to the Roadrunners’ 45-yard line, and the Hilltoppers drove to a first down at the 16.

On third-and-11, Kennan Hailey, who rushed for 117 yards in 22 carries, took a pitch and raced around the right side to the 2-yard line. However, the Hilltoppers were called for holding, and the ball was moved back to the 24, setting up third-and-18. A screen pass on the next play lost 6 yards and made it fourth-and-24, and Tony Trabold’s long field goal attempt fell wide and short.

Then in the final minute of the half, JCA faced a third-and-4 at the Nazareth 27 when Pat Roth was sacked for a 5-yard loss. A long pass attempt on fourth down fell incomplete.

That wound up being the extent of the Hilltoppers’ threats. They had four brief possessions in the second half and managed only two first downs to finish the game with eight.

“That really hurt to have the touchdown, or at least it was a near-touchdown, called back on the holding penalty, and then have the sack when we were getting close at the end of the half,” Sharp said.

Nazareth scored its only touchdown on a 25-yard pass from Andrew Rouse Jr. to David Oglesby on what Sharp said appeared to be a blown coverage. Nazareth kicker Aidan Bresnahan, who hit the left upright from 51 yards out in the first quarter, nailed a 35-yard field goal with 1:45 left in the third quarter to make it a two-possession game.

Other than that, JCA’s defense – with linemen Deonte Berry, Ray Hernandez, Andrew Warf and Scott Fosen; linebackers Clay Briscoe, Casey Sheppard and Fernando Chavez; cor-

nerbacks Donzell Rivers and Chris Kosinski, and safeties Jack Duffy and Simon Grashoff among those in the mix – answered the challenges thrown their way.

“What a game Clay Briscoe played,” Sharp said. “And Jack Duffy was out there with a bad arm. We have quite a few guys playing with injuries. We keep praying there will be no more injuries so we have enough guys to finish the season with.”

Nazareth totaled 282 yards of offense, including 214 rushing, while limiting the Hilltoppers to 186 total yards, 153 on the ground. In addition to Hailey’s 117 rushing yards, Michael Butler chipped in with 34 in six carries and caught five passes for 23.

Roth completed 7 of 14 passes for 33 yards.

“We went with a conservative running game to try to help our young offensive line,” Sharp said.

“The sophomores and juniors who are playing, how valuable will the experience they are getting be in the future. We’re playing with the youngest team I’ve had, but we’re not getting blown out. We’re in games battling.”

JCA had not been shut out since a playoff loss to Providence in 2002.

PREP FOOTBALL: PLAINFIELD NORTH 41. JOLIET CENTRAL 0

Plainfield North bounces back to beat Joliet Central

By DENNIS NELSON

Shaw Media correspondent JOLIET – Plainfield North unleashed a three-headed monster on offense during a 41-0 Southwest Prairie Conference win Friday over Joliet Central.

A staunch defense and long punt return for a touchdown also pushed the Tigers to 4-2 overall and in the Southwest Prairie Conference, and one win away from playoff consideration. Joliet Central dropped to 1-5, 1-5.

“I thought we threw the ball well and defensively it was nice to get a shutout,” Plainfield North coach Tim Kane said. “It was fun to see the second-string guys in there, holding them out of the end zone in the second half. It was a total team effort.”

Quarterback Brady Miller, running back Tyler Hoosman and wide receiver Connor Peplow put on a show during the first half, accounting for 249 of the Tigers’ 266 yards and all of their 41 points.

Miller passed for 133 yards and three touchdowns, Hoosman totaled 118 rushing and receiving yards and three scores and Peplow caught five passes for 102 yards, two touchdowns and was 6 for 7 on point-after attempts.

“Tyler is really running the ball well, Peplow is such a good player for us and Miller did a good job with his reads and throws,” Kane said of the trio. “Our kids were pretty disappointed after last week [21-14 loss to Oswego East].

“We had a good week of practice, the kids had a great attitude and wanted to be better tonight than we were last week. We learned from that loss and improved. That’s what we’re after. We made some explosive plays and responded well after last week.”

The Tigers’ special teams also got in on the fun as Dillon McCarthy returned a punt 71 yards for a touchdown to finish the first-half scoring.

It was Plainfield North’s first shutout in 34 games. Joliet Central fin-

ished with 69 yards of offense and three first downs.

“We had to bounce back, learn from our mistakes and have a chip on our shoulder after a tough loss last week,” senior defensive lineman Ari Ekowa said. “We finished the game great tonight. That’s what we wanted to do.

“We had to make sure we get on them early and keep on the gas. We had to keep it going even when our second team got in there. They are a part of the defense and we were cheering them on all the way until the end. We got the shutout together.”

After both teams failed to score on their first possessions, Kevin Block’s 36-yard punt return to the Joliet Central 23 set up the Tigers’ first score. Miller hit Peplow from 23 yards out for a 7-0 lead with 9:34 left in the first quarter.

Peplow also caught a touchdown pass of 15 yards early in the second quarter. Sandwiched between were touchdown runs of 39 and 14 yards

by Hoosman. The second was set up by a strip and fumble recovery by Plainfield North’s Nick Wood at the Steelmen 21.

“Coach just wanted us to get after it, get points on the board and find ourselves on offense,” Peplow said.

“Brady started throwing the ball well, Tyler was running the ball well and our defense did great in getting the shutout.”

Trailing 27-0 early in the second quarter, Joliet Central came up with back-to-back first downs on consecutive plays. However, the Steelmen failed to convert on a fourth-down play at the Plainfield North 21.

Three plays later, Miller hit Hoosman with a swing pass that turned into a 31-yard touchdown and a 34-0 lead with 6:48 left in the second quarter. McCarthy’s long punt return gave the Tigers a 41-0 lead at the intermission.

Joliet Central had 32 yards of offense and a pair of first downs through the first two quarters.

PREP FOOTBALL: BOLINGBROOK 27, LOCKPORT 22

By JEFF DE GRAW

Shaw Media correspondent

• Sunday, October 2, 2016

LOCKPORT – Bolingbrook used eight running backs who combined to rush for 313 yards in a 27-22 SouthWest Suburban Conference victory Friday night over Lockport.

“We’re not afraid to play anyone,” Bolingbrook coach John Ivlow said.

“Tonight we were missing four starters and we used eight different players to carry the ball. We play uptempo and they need that break. They all did a nice job tonight.”

The Raiders (3-3, 2-2) scored on their first possession after recovery of a Lockport fumble as Kendall Smith ran in from 2 yards out for a 6-0 lead.

They never trailed.

Lockport (4-2, 2-2) had opportunities as it recovered two first-quarter fumbles by the Raiders. Ryne Travis recovered the first, which led to a 25yard Ben Davis field goal to make it 6-3. Eric Jungheim recovered the second fumble, but the Raider defense stop the Porters on downs.

Raiders quarterback Anthony Vespo took advantage and hit Lucas Maurella with a 64-yard touchdown pass with 10:25 left before halftime to go up 13-3.

“We came out strong again tonight like we have in the past games,” Vespo said. “But tonight we finished. We are learning from our mistakes. We have three more games left and tonight was a big victory for us. I love to throw the ball, but when you can run the ball like we did, it makes the passing easier.”

Vespo was 5 of 7 through the air for 117 yards with one interception to go with his touchdown pass.

Still trailing 13-3 in the third quarter, Lockport scored on a 4-yard touchdown pass from Davis to Austin Hoffman to make it 13-10 at the 5:43 mark.

Hoffman had seven receptions for 73 yards and two touchdowns.

On the next possession, the Porters’ Nicholas Dado intercepted a tipped ball. But Davis was wide left on a 38yard field goal attempt.

Bolingbrook then got a 50-yard scamper by Izayah Green-May and Brandon Walters finished the drive with a 5-yard touchdown run to put the Raiders up 20-10. Walters finished with 16 carries for 58 yards.

“I had to take Jeremiah Lebron’s spot tonight because he was hurt,” Walters said. “I knew I had to step up.

It really helps all of us in the backfield when you have guys who can come in and keep you fresh. We needed this win tonight and this will help us continue to get better each week.”

Lockport’s Ryne Travis (7) is tackled after recovering a fumble during Friday night’s 27-22 loss to Bolingbrook at Lockport.

After the Lockport score, the Raiders responded yet again as they drove 83 yards in just over two minutes. Jazontae Howard capped his night with a 5-yard score. Howard ended with 75 yards on nine carries.

“We have an unselfish offense, we don’t mind sharing the ball,” Howard said. “We finally played an entire game and it’s a great team feeling to win.

Lockport was missing two key players as the Porters were dealing with eligibility issues, according to coach Dan Starkey.

“That 14-point swing in the third quarter was huge,” Starkey said. “We had the momentum after the interception, then we don’t score and they drive right down the field and score.

That was the game right there.

38 PREP FOOTBALL: PLAINFIELD SOUTH 17, PLAINFIELD EAST 3

Plainfield South gets second-half lift vs. East

By SCOTT EHLING

Shaw Media correspondent PLAINFIELD – After last week’s big victory on homecoming, Plainfield South coach Bill Bicker and his Cougars football team relished the opportunity to play spoiler.

South broke open a 3-3 halftime score with a touchdown on its first offensive possession of the second half en route to a 17-3 victory over host Plainfield East on its homecoming night in Southwest Prairie Conference action Friday.

“It was clear and apparent to me that we did not come ready to play football today,” Bicker said. “We survived the first half when our defense stepped it up and carried us.”

South junior running back Sayvaun

Roberts seemed to provide the spark on offense in the second half that the Cougars needed as he rushed for a game-high 59 yards on 15 carries and scored a touchdown.

“Credit Sayvaun because he came in and did a nice job and provided a spark on that first drive,” Bicker said.

The Cougars had significant contributions from Nick Portz (nine carries, 38 yards, TD) and Nick Deppe (7 of 16, 68 yards). East was led by junior running back Zach Horejs (12 carries, 35 yards).

South (4-2, 4-2) was dominant once again on defense, limiting the Bengals to 107 total yards of offense. The Cougars had 220 offensive yards in the game.

“I think we played good cover defense the whole game,” Portz said. “We played hard all week of practice and it paid off

today.”

Both offenses struggled in the game early. However, the Bengals (2-4, 2-4) were able to take advantage of a Deppe interception and drove down to the Cougars’ 15 before the drive stalled. Kyle Hassert’s 32-yard field goal gave East a 3-0 lead with 32 seconds left in the first quarter.

“We knew coming in that our defense would stop them and that we were going to be in a close game,” East coach Mike Romeli said. “We just couldn’t execute much on offense. We haven’t scored a touchdown on offense since Week 2.”

After both teams traded offensive drives, South made the most of its next drive, getting down to the Bengals’ 3-yard line, where the drive stalled. Zachary Sutphin’s 20-yard field goal tied the game, 3-3, with 12 seconds left in the half.

South brought Roberts into the game and in the backfield for its opening possession of the second half and he provided an immediate spark. Deppe connected with wideout Tom Macari for a 30-yard completion and three plays later, Roberts rushed in for a 7-yard touchdown to give the Cougars a 10-3 lead with 10:23 left in the third quarter.

“We felt like we could exploit their outsides,” Deppe said. “We wanted to utilize our screens and our spreads.”

Later in the quarter, South took advantage of good starting field position on the Bengals 39-yard line. Six plays later, Portz scored on a 4-yard touchdown run that put the Cougars up 17-3 with 1:18 left.

“We just try to overpower them and that’s just Cougar football,” Portz said.

plays for him.”

The Knights took the second-half kickoff and ate up six minutes, only to be turned away on downs at the Bradley 28.

On the first play of the fourth quarter, Burtis (23 carries, 126 yards) crashed in from the 1 to give Bradley a 24-10 lead.

The Knights struck back with 8:46 left. On a fourth-and-1 at the Boilermaker 46, fullback Mike Morgan (10 carries, 60 yards) broke a tackle at the line of scrimmage and raced 46 yards to score. With Sereleas’ conversion, the Knights closed to 24-17.

They say that football is a game of inches. That certainly was the case on the ensuing drive. Led by Burtis and Iowa-bound tailback Camron Harrell (12 carries, 80 yards), the Boilermakers drove deep into Knight territory with six minutes left.

On a second-and-10 at the Central 28, Reyna prevented a touchdown when he dislodged the ball from Harrell on a pass from Burtis in the end zone. Harrell picked up 5 and then

on fourth down, Burtis ran for the first down. Knights linebacker Nick DeGregorio hit Burtis near the firstdown marker. A measurement was called for and Burtis picked up the first down by one inch.

“Football is a game of inches, “ Central coach Jeremy Cordell said.

“We just missed an opportunity to go down and tie the game. Bradley-Bourbonnais is a very good team and their quarterback is quite a player.

We did a lot of good things tonight but not enough to win this game, a game we really felt we could and had to win.”

Bradley finished off the Knights with a 19-yard Lozaro field goal with 2:59 left.

“We failed to do things in all three phases of the game that we had to do better,” Campbell said. “Bradley-Bourbonnais is a good team but I really felt we could beat them. We want to beat Bolingbrook next week and punch our ticket to the playoffs.

That is one of our goals and it’s on everyone’s mind.”

PREP FOOTBALL: PLANO 35, COAL CITY 6

Ward, Adeoti, Plano hand Coal City its third straight loss

By LAURA MEDINA

Shaw Media Correspondent PLANO – Coal City’s football team was unsuccessful in its attempts to spoil Plano’s homecoming celebration, falling 35-6 Friday night in the Interstate Eight Large.

It was the Coalers (3-3, 1-2) who had the momentum to start the game, but the Reapers (4-2, 3-1) promptly took control and cruised to their third consecutive victory.

Coal City, meanwhile, dropped its third straight.

Plano outgained Coal City, 429 yards to 119, riding the efforts of quarterback Tyler Ward (11 of 18 for 182 yards and a touchdown) and wide receiver Israel Adeoti (three catches, 84 yards).

“They were a better team than us,” Coal City coach Lenny Onsen said. “We didn’t play very well and they won. I mean, honestly, they’re a very good ball club, and we didn’t do well enough to win “We’re not happy. We’ve been through a rough string, but hats off to them.”

Coalers senior quarterback

1-yard sneak with 7:37 remaining in the second quarter.

Daniel Kroeger rushed for 77 yards in 20 carries.

Defensively, the Coalers were unable to keep the hosts from tacking on two scores in the final 5:36.

“Thirty-five to six is a lot bigger of a lead than it felt like,” Plano coach Brad Kunz said. “They were in the game the whole time, and two years ago when we played them, we were up (13-0 with five minutes) left in the fourth quarter and lost, so that was in the back of my mind.

“We ended up getting those two scores and putting things away, but we definitely feel like that’s a good thing to be able to overcome something like that and finish a game.”

Coal City visits I-8 foe Sandwich next week looking to return to the win column for the first time since overwhelming Streator on Sept. 9.

NEW LENOX – Despite first-quarter showers, a huge homecoming crowd packed Lashmet Stadium for Friday’s Southwest Suburban Conference battle between Bradley-Bourbonnais and Lincoln-Way Central.

Two first-quarter Boilermaker touchdowns proved too much for the Knights to overcome as Bradley prevailed, 27-17.

The Boilermakers (6-0, 4-0), who entered ranked No. 2 in Class 7A, drove 70 yards on 13 plays and took more than six minutes off the clock, scoring on a 24-yard strike from quarterback Morion Burtis Jr. (5 of 6, 65 yards) to wide receiver Austin Piwoni.

On the last play of the first quarter, fullback Matt Rafe (12 carries, 125 yards) rambled 20 yards for a touchdown for a 14-0 lead.

Central (4-2, 2-2) answered with a six-minute, 13-play, 90-yard drive that culminated with a 1-yard touchdown

run by quarterback Hunter Campbell (five carries, 17 yards). Campbell and Knights running back Sean Reyna (two carries, 29 yards) each had 19yard runs to highlight the drive.

Knights linebacker Liam Markham thwarted a Boilermaker drive with a huge fumble recovery at the Knights’ 35.

Joshua Lozaro kicked a 35-yard field goal to increase the Boilermaker lead to 17-7 with 1:10 left in the first half.

Campbell (13 of 23 for 134 yards passing) connected with his favorite receiver, Matt Pollack (10 catches, 108 yards), on five passes for 53 yards in a scoring drive that culminated with a 29-yard field goal from Dimitri Sereleas on the last play of the first half to pull the Knights to within 17-10.

“This one really hurts,” Pollack said. “We have to come out and have a great week of practice and win at Bolingbrook next week. Hunter is a great quarterback who really has worked hard since last spring. When he gets me the ball, I have to make

40 COLLEGE FOOTBALL: CONCORDIA (MICHIGAN) 24, UNIVERSITY OF ST. FRANCIS 21

USF loses 2-touchdown lead, falls in OT

By DICK GOSS

dgoss@shawmedia.com JOLIET – When University of St. Francis backup quarterback Alex Alarcon entered the game connected with wide receiver Zach Moreno on an 81-yard touchdown pass early in the third quarter, everything was rosy.

After a rainy beginning to the day, even the sun was being to peek out from behind the clouds.

The big play, on Alarcon’s first snap after regular quarterback Don Butkus suffered a slight ankle injury, gave the Saints a 21-7 lead over Concordia (Michigan) in a Mid-States Football Association crossover at Joliet Memorial Stadium. It appeared USF was well on its way to getting back on a winning track.

However, Alarcon was intercepted on the next USF possession, and Jordan Smith lost a fumble on the possession after that. The Cardinals turned both mistakes into touchdowns to draw into a 21-21 tie with 12:21 left in regulation.

The game wound up going to overtime with that score. St. Francis had the ball first in OT, and Butkus, who had his ankle taped and returned after Alarcon threw his interception, was picked off in the end zone on second-and-goal from the 5. Concordia then had its opportunity to begin at

“We’re resilient when we run into adversity. We did this last year a couple of times, too, where we got a couple touchdown lead and couldn’t hold it. But we’ll be OK.” Alex Zlomie

Saints defensive end the 25-yard line, and Brayden Bennett kicked a 35-yard field goal on fourth down to give the Cardinals a 24-21 victory.

“All season long we’ve been losing tough ones,” said USF senior linebacker Mike Passo, a Joliet Catholic graduate.

“We’re resilient when we run into adversity,” Saints defensive end Alex Zlomie (Wilmington) said. “We did this last year a couple of times, too, where we got a couple touchdown lead and couldn’t hold it. But we’ll be OK.” The Saints fell to 1-4 while Concordia improved to 4-1. Before Saturday, USF had not played an overtime game since 2012 and had not played one at home since 2003.

“These are all tough,” said St. Francis coach Joe Curry, whose Saints have lost on a late touchdown to Saint Xavier and now on back-to-back Saturdays by three points on their home turf. “If you lose by three in regular or three in overtime, it’s the same thing.

“I love our kids. They’re resilient.

We keep being put in this position each week. Our record is not indicative of the kind of team we are, but it is what we are at this point.”

Even with Concordia rallying for two scores to get back even in the second half, it almost did not turn out that way. Saints 6-foot-4, 230-pound defensive end Calvin Brayboy (Bolingbrook) is on the kick-block team for a reason. With the score 21-20, he leaped and blocked Bennett’s extra-point attempt. However, it had just enough oomph to get to the crossbar, and it bounced over rather than back, tying the score. That’s how close USF came to winning in regulation.

Still, no excuses. St. Francis turned the ball over four times, and that generally is a prescription for disaster.

“I’d have to go back and check whether we turned it over four times against Marian last season, but if not, this would be the first time in two years that we turned it over four times,” Curry said. “We preach not turning it over all the time. To their

(Cardinals’) credit, they’re a good team and forced the turnovers. But still, after we were up 21-7, I think we turned it over almost every possession.”

Another element that Curry said the coaching staff emphasizes is thirddown defense, and Concordia converted 8 of 19 third-down opportunities.

“As a defense, we have been consistent 99 percent of the time,” Zlomie said. “It’s that one percent where we have been in and out.”

Zlomie made five solo tackles, including two sacks for 9 yards in losses, and six tackles total. Linebacker Nicholas Reese was in on 12 tackles, Josh Woodard, Kevin Walsh and Brayboy on 10. Brayboy and Smith made 15 tackles for loss each.

On the offensive side, freshman Michael Johnson (JCA) rushed for 35 yards in eight carries and caught a 9-yard touchdown pass from Butkus that got the Saints even, 7-7, in the second quarter. Lexus Johnson rushed for 47 yards and caught four passes for 13. Re’John Williams grabbed a 19-yard touchdown pass from Butkus.

Butkus and Alarcon combined to completed 17 of 30 passes for 198 yards and three scores, but also three interceptions.

“There are so many positives today; it stinks to look at the scoreboard,” Curry said.

PREP FOOTBALL: LINCOLN-WAY EAST 49, ANDREW 7

Muhammad, Lincoln-Way East roll past Andrew

By MIKE FITZGERALD

Shaw Media Correspondent TINLEY PARK – Nigel Muhammad broke touchdown runs of 64 and 62 yards as Lincoln-Way East defeated Andrew, 49-7, Friday in Southwest Suburban Conference play.

The 5-foot-8 senior running back helped the Griffins (5-1, 3-1) to an early 21-0 lead over the Thunderbolts (06, 0-4). He finished with four carries for 133 yards.

“He’s been great for us for the last two years,” Griffins coach Rob Zvonar said. “He’s the leader of our running back squad. I’m very proud of him, his work ethic, and his maturation.

He’s made big plays for us all year.”

Muhammad knew where to give the credit for his big night.

“The blocking of the offensive line was amazing,” he said. “It was all the

O-line. It had nothing to do with me. I did the running, but it was the O-line, tight ends and receivers who did the blocking.”

The Griffins’ offensive line of Sam Diehl, Jake Taylor, Jake Buhe, Anthony Sottosanto and Dane Eggert and tight end Turner Pallissard dominated the Thunderbolts the entire first half. East led Andrew, 42-0, at halftime.

“I’m really proud of the way our offensive line has progressed. We’re playing a couple of young kids there, and they just seem to get better every week,” Zvonar said.

East’s first-half scoring included two touchdown passes by quarterback Max Shafer. He connected on a 25-yard scoring pass to receiver Nick Zelenicka and an 18-yard pass to Pallissard. Running back Brendan Morrissey added a 40-yard touchdown

run.

“The receivers, quarterbacks, running backs, tight ends and O-line all just play as one,” Muhammad said.

“We’re all one big family. We don’t play as individuals. That’s one thing Coach Z has always said – 11 as one.

It’s rubbed off on the offense and the defense.”

The Griffins’ defense was not outdone, either.

Linebacker Brett Stegmueller recorded a sack, a tackle for loss and an interception. Defensive back Colton Pedersen also intercepted a pass and returned it to the Andrew 2-yard-line to set up a touchdown run by Ryan Scianna.

“Brett gets better every week,” Zvonr said. “No one puts more into it than he does. He’s a cerebral player. Anything he lacks physically, he makes up for mentally and with his

emotion and his heart. You really enjoy being around kids like that. He deserves it. He’s worked for every bit of it.”

The defensive line of Devin O’Rourke, Nick Reilly, Ben Ravetto, Jaden Hacha and Kyle Julius held the Thunderbolts in check in the first half.

“It always starts up front, no matter what year it is or what team it is. If you’re good there, you at least have a chance,” Zvonar said. “The defensive line is led by Devin O’Rourke, but I think we’re pretty deep now to the point where a kid like Zack Tencza can take a night off to rest a little bit.

It didn’t seem like we missed a beat.

You have to win the battle up front if you’re going to have a chance, whether it’s now or in the playoffs.”

Running back Peter Ostrowski scored the final East touchdown on a 1-yard-run in the fourth quarter.

The Cougars’ third-place team finish was spurred by only a seven-second split between their first and fourth runners. Stephen Merriweather (16:52) placed 22nd, Jake Willison (16:52) was 23rd, Andrew Nunez (16:58) took 28th and Christian Knowlton (16:59) was 29th. Fifth runner Timmy Wade finished 45th in 17:13, giving South an impressive :21 second 1-5 split.

“Top three at this meet is fantastic,” South coach Jason Crowe said.

“This team is really buying into what the coaching staff is trying to get across to them. We can only control what we do in practice and the meets. Don’t be concerned with who else is there. Concentrate on us and that is what we can control. We did a great job of keeping the pack togeth-

er and moving up as a group.

“Our captain, Andrew Nunez, doesn’t get enough credit for his leadership on this team. He keeps our pack together, he doesn’t care what person he is on this team. Today he was our third runner and he is the general during the race. Jake is recovering after a hamstring injury and ran well today for just getting back.”

Don’t sell Lincoln-Way West short when you look at the results. Sophomore John Stiglic won the freshman-sophomore race and will be counted upon in the upcoming races.

“Today was good and I loved the adverse conditions,” West coach Jason Van Swol said. “We ran John [Stiglic] in the frosh-soph race today, but when we move him up to the varsity, he will be right there as the number two or three runner. So far this season in every race, we have had a different top seven. We have depth and a lot of talent. Our training is right where it should be at this time of year.”

LOCKPORT - The annual Locktoberfest boys cross country meet, which is held at Dellwood Park, always falls at a great time in the cross country calendar.

Two weeks prior to the start of the “post-season” meets in the sport.

With the conference, regional and sectional meets coming up, it give the athletes and coaches one last big meet to see where they are for the season.

Saturday was no exception, although the heavy rain did dampen the atmosphere, but not the enthusiasm from the 23-team field.

Neuqua Valley won the team title with 122 points, followed by Wheaton North (138) and Plainfield South (144). Plainfield East finished 12th, Lockport was 13th and Lincoln-Way Central was 14th. Lincoln-Way West (16th), Bolingbrook (17th), Joliet Central (19th) and Plainfield North (20th) also participated.

Irwin Loud of Oak Park and River Forest was the individual winner, covering the wet 3-mile course in 15:57. Lincoln-Way West’s Evan Mitchell (16:16) finished third while his teammate Ryan Taylor (16:33) placed ninth to lead area runners.

“Times aren’t pretty on this course because it can be tough,” Mitchell said. “It really started pouring at about the mile mark, but it’s cross country and you are running for place. We have done some training here at Dellwood, so we are familiar with the course, and our sectional meet is in Edwardsville this year on a similar course.”

Taylor was happy with the effort and likes where the Warriors are at this point of the season.

“This is a fun meet, but the hills were a little slippery with all the rain,” Taylor said. “As a team we are looking pretty good right now and our goal is to make it to the state meet.”

Kizer covers for shaky D as Notre Dame beats Syracuse

By RALPH D. RUSSO The Associated Press

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – Notre Dame will count this as progress after a week of upheaval and adjustments for a beleaguered defense. They might have been only leprechaun-sized steps forward, but the Fighting Irish will take it.

Notre Dame tightened up its tackling and held Syracuse to seven points in the second half, and DeShone Kizer made up for most of the Irish’s ills with one of the best passing games in school history.

Kizer threw for a career-best 471 yards and the Fighting Irish snapped a two-game losing streak by defeating Syracuse, 50-33, Saturday.

In the first game since coach Brian Kelly fired coordinator Brian VanGorder, the Irish (2-3) allowed more than 30 points for the fourth time this season and 489 yards to Syracuse’s up-tempo spread offense.

“I wasn’t crazy about going against this offense. I much rather have been going against something a little bit different because of their tempo and how they spread you out and with all the freshman DBs that (we) play. That’s not

had a 74-yard return late in the first half that setup a touchdown and left Kelly fuming on the sideline. Estime added a 38-yard return.

Kizer made it all OK for Notre Dame at MetLife Stadium.

He connected on three touchdown passes – two to Equanimeous St. Brown – that covered at least 54 yards each and ran for a score. Kizer hit a rough patch at end of the first half when he took a 17-yard sack that knocked the Irish out of field goal range and threw an interception.

Kelly said he told Kizer at halftime to stop trying to force big plays.

“When we went back out, relaxed AP photo up, took his words and ran with it,” said Notre Dame quarterback DeShone Kizer Kizer, who threw for more yards in a throws a touchdown pass to wide re- victory than any quarterback in Notre ceiver Equanimeous St. Brown during the Dame history.

An in-season fix seems unlikely.

The middle of the field always seems to be open against the Orange secondary.

“That is a very, very young defense,” first-year Syracuse coach Dino Babers said. “You have to give them time to grow up.”

FYI: Clemson and Deshaun Watson play the Orange on Nov. 5.

Notre Dame: Kelly elevated Greg Hudson from analyst to coordinator and got more involved in the defense this week.

Kelly kept his pledge to play more defensive players and make tweaks. The Irish mixed in some 3-4 alignments and their defensive backs changed techniques to better guard deep routes. Cornerback Luke Cole was moved to nickelback, lining up inside instead of out.

There is still work to be done. The secondary, at times playing four freshmen, was porous and the front got little pressure. Positives: The Orange ran for only 3.4 yards per carry and the Irish did a solid job of tackling after the catch.

Syracuse had 266 yards in the last three quarters.

“We need to continue to improve on tackling,” defensive lineman Isaac Rochell said. “I would say we did better, but we still left a lot out there.”

Newby’s late flurry sends Huskers past Illini

By ERIC OLSON

The Associated Press LINCOLN, Neb. – Terrell Newby ran for 113 of his 140 yards and scored two touchdowns in the fourth quarter, and No. 15 Nebraska got a scare from Illinois before winning, 31-16, on Saturday.

Newby touched the ball on 18 of Nebraska’s last 21 plays from scrimmage and the Cornhuskers (5-0, 2-0 Big Ten) won going away after being down 1610. They also avenged a 14-13 loss last year in Champaign.

“Newby, I thought, was a real man today,” Nebraska coach Mike Riley said.

Illinois (1-3, 0-1) got off only 10 offensive plays after taking its six-point lead with 7:40 left in the third quarter.

The Illini have lost 14 straight and 23 of 24 against Top 25 opponents.

Nebraska, favored by three touchdowns, fell behind after turning over the ball on back-to-back possessions.

But the Illini had to settle for field goals after each takeaway, allowing the Huskers to stay close.

“We got better today. We still have

a loss, but I think we made improvements,” Illinois coach Lovie Smith said. “We hung in there throughout, had a lead for most of the game, but it’s about finishing. We didn’t do that.”

The Huskers went 18 plays in 10:42 to take a one-point lead early in the fourth. Nebraska was able to keep the drive alive because of two huge penalties on the Illini. Chunky Clements had Tommy Armstrong Jr. stopped for a loss on a third-and-12, but he was called for a horse-collar tackle, and Darius Mosley was flagged for pass interference on a fourth-and-4.

The biggest play, though, was when Newby picked up a first down by inches on a fourth-and-1 at the Illinois 4. The spot stood after a video review, and Newby scored on the next play.

The Illini went three-and-out on their next series, and then Armstrong led an 11-play drive that ended with a 6-yard pass to Trey Foster for a 24-16 lead with 4:32 left.

The Huskers’ last TD came when Newby busted through the line and went 63 yards to the end zone.

Armstrong was 16 of 23 for 220 yards, and Jordan Westerkamp caught four balls for 65 yards.

Reggie Corbin led the Illini with 72 yards on nine carries, and Wes Lunt was 13 for 22 for 133 yards.

THE TAKEAWAY ILLINOIS: The Illini, who have lost

three in a row since winning their opener, gave Nebraska all it could handle. They were done in by untimely and bad penalties and by having to settle for field goals instead of touchdowns after Nebraska turnovers.

NEBRASKA: The Huskers should feel good about getting out of this one with a win and be glad they have an open date next week. They’re banged up.

Westerkamp was taken to a hospital to be evaluated after he appeared to take a knee to the back while getting tackled. Tight end Cethan Carter injured his elbow early in the game, and running back Devine Ozigbo went out with an ankle injury.

“Looking at our team and watching that thing take place, it appears to be a real good time for a bye week,” Riley said.

Northern Illinois with first win, beats Ball State 31-24

MUNCIE, Ind. – Anthony Maddie threw for two touchdowns and ran for another as Northern Illinois picked up its first win with a 31-24 victory over Ball State on Saturday.

Maddie threw for 298 yards and rushed for 160 yards including a 75-yard sprint for a touchdown that gave the Huskies (1-4, 1-0 Mid-American Conference) a 10-3 lead with 1:08 left in the first quarter. Joel Bouagnon added 153 yards and a score rushing and Christian Hagan kicked a 41-yard field goal.

Northern Illinois led 24-17 at the break but Ball State’s James Gilbert ran for a score early in the fourth quarter to even it up.

Then Maddie hit Kenny Golladay for a 22-yard touchdown to put the Huskies back on top, 31-24, with 11:14 to play and they hung on for the win.

Riley Neal threw for 276 yards for the Cardinals (3-2, 0-1). Gilbert had 119 yards and three scores rushing.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL: NORTHWESTERN 38, IOWA 31

Carr’s 3 TDs lift Wildcats Regular-season winning streak ends at 9 for Iowa The ASSOCIATED PRESS IOWA CITY, Iowa – Northwestern finally found some points. Then the defense made a big play to secure a much-needed win.

Justin Jackson ran for 171 yards and Austin Carr caught three touchdown passes as Northwestern held on to beat Iowa, 38-31, Saturday.

Trae Williams’ interception in the final minute sealed the win for the Wildcats (2-3, 1-1 Big Ten), who scored touchdowns on three straight drives in the second half after Iowa ran off 17 straight points to take the lead.

“For us to weather that storm and then not to flinch after they went on a 17-0 run, I thought showed some maturity from this group, and then to get the finish was critically important,” Northwestern coach Pat Fitzgerald said. “We’ve got to squeeze everything out of this group. I think they’re coming along for us.”

C.J. Beathard threw for 204 yards and a touchdown for Iowa (3-2, 1-1), which snapped its nine-game regular-season Big Ten winning streak.

The Wildcats – ranked as the worst scoring offense in the Big Ten and 125th out of 128 FBS teams coming into Saturday – exploded for nearly as many points against Iowa as they scored in the past three games combined.

Northwestern’s Clayton Thorson threw for 164 yards. Carr – his favorite target and the Big Ten’s receptions leader – has caught a touchdown pass

in four straight games. He’s the first Wildcat player to do that since 2000.

Jackson became the fourth player in Northwestern history to reach 3,000 career yards. The junior’s 58-yard touchdown run late in the third quarter regained the lead for the Wildcats.

Defensive end Ifeadi Odenigbo had four of Northwestern’s six sacks.

The Hawkeyes had two chances to tie the game in the final seven minutes, but were forced to punt and then Williams intercepted Beathard at Northwestern’s 36-yard line.

Iowa’s mistakes – pass protection and penalties – were costly. The Hawkeyes had 70 penalty yards, including consecutive personal fouls on Northwestern’s last scoring drive.

“We’re not good enough to give up 15 yards, whether it’s a sack, a penalty,” Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz said.

“We’re just not good enough, and not many teams are.”

Iowa’s LeShun Daniels Jr. and Akrum Wadley combined for 107 rushing yards and three touchdowns.

Wadley has seven touchdowns in three games against Northwestern.

THE TAKEAWAY NORTHWESTERN: The 38-point out-

burst is what Fitzgerald needed to see after the Wildcats totaled just 65 points in their first four games. Northwestern took advantage of good field position early. It had three scoring drives of 75plus yards in the second half.

The key was limiting mistakes. Fitzgerald pointed to holding penalties and turnovers as reasons why the offense has sputtered. The Wildcats had one fumble and only one penalty against Iowa.

“The offense has been there, but I just think we’ve had self-inflicted

wounds,” Fitzgerald said.

IOWA: Beathard didn’t have time to find targets in his first game without top receiver Matt VandeBerg, who broke his foot this week in practice.

Beathard was sacked six times and had to scramble to throw most of the game.

Senior Riley McCarron had career-highs with eight catches and 78 yards. He could emerge as Beathard’s top target.

INJURY REPORT

Northwestern’s Brett Walsh was carted off the field during a scary moment in the third quarter, but officials said tests came back negative. Walsh is expected to travel back to Evanston, Illinois, on Saturday night.

Walsh, a junior linebacker, was hurt covering a kickoff. The game was delayed almost 10 minutes while medical personnel attended to Walsh. He was put on a stretcher and carted off to the locker room.

NOTABLES

Northwestern had lost four of the previous five games in the series. The Wildcats won in Kinnick Stadium for the first time since 2009. .Iowa linebacker Josey Jewell had a career-high 16 tackles. Jewell has had double-digit tackles in three straight games. .Iowa kicker Keith Duncan hit a career-long 24-yard field goal.

UP NEXT NORTHWESTERN: The Wildcats have

a bye next week before visiting No. 17 Michigan State on Oct. 15.

IOWA: The Hawkeyes travel to Minnesota with hopes of holding onto the “Floyd of Rosedale” trophy. Iowa got whipped 52-14 in its last trip to Minnesota two years ago.

No. 2 Ohio St. 58, Rutgers 0 COLUMBUS, Ohio – J.T. Barrett broke the Ohio State record for career TD passes with the third of his four Saturday, and the Buckeyes forced Rutgers to punt on all 10 drives.

Barrett was 21 for 29 for 238 yards before giving way to backup Joe Burrow near the end of the third quarter. Barrett has 59 TD passes in 27 career games for Ohio State (4-0, 1-0 Big Ten).

The Scarlet Knights (2-3, 0-2) never got deeper than the Ohio State 38.

No. 4 Michigan 14, No. 8 Wisconsin 7 ANN ARBOR, Mich. – Wilton Speight threw a tiebreaking, 46-yard touchdown pass to Amara Darboh midway through the fourth quarter, and Jourdan Lewis had a spectacular, one-handed interception for Michigan.

Jim Harbaugh helped the Wolverines (5-0, 2-0 Big Ten) beat a Top 10 team for the first time since their Rich Rodriguez-led team rallied to beat the ninth-ranked Badgers in 2008.

Wisconsin (4-1, 1-1) had the ball at its 8 with 2:59 and no timeouts left with a chance to beat a third team ranked in the top 10. The Badgers went for it on fourth-and-10 from its 8, with no timeouts left, and Alex Hornibrook’s deep pass was picked off by Lewis.

Lewis leaped to grab the ball out of the air with his right hand and pinned it against his hip for an interception near midfield with 2:15 left to play.

44 LIONS AT BEARS, NOON SUNDAY, FOX, AM-780, 105.9-FM

Lions’ ‘D’ has holes to exploit BEARS INSIDER Hub Arkush

Almost one year to the day, the Bears returned from Seattle after an embarrassing 26-0 whitewash behind backup quarterback Jimmy Clausen, and along with a competitive opening day loss to the Packers followed by a beat-down at home from Arizona, the team was 0-3.

Sound familiar?

Next up was a young 2-1 Oakland Raiders team, and although Jay Cutler did return to the lineup, the Bears, without Alshon Jeffery and with Eddie Royal as their No. 1 receiver, responded with their best performance of the season, outgaining the Raiders, 371-243, and earning a 22-20 victory on a 49-yard Robbie Gould field goal with 2 seconds to play.

How might history repeat itself?

The Lions come to town Sunday 21st in total defense, 21st against the run, 16th against the pass, 27th in points allowed and their two best defenders, Ezekiel Ansah and DeAndre Levy, are out.

This is a real opportunity for the Bears’ offense to figure out some things, particularly up front where the Lions won’t have a dominant pass-rusher to give Bobby Massie and/ or Charles Leno fits, although firstyear end Kerry Hyder does have four of the Lions’ seven sacks in relief of Ansah at right end.

Bears rookie running back Jordan Howard will get his first NFL start, and with Levy out, only middle linebacker

AP file photo

Bears running back Jordan Howard (24) lines up against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday in Arlington, Texas.

Tahir Whitehead is a significant run stuffer if the Bears can keep 32-yearold Haloti Ngata from filling two gaps and controlling the line of scrimmage.

Ngata has lost a step, but he still is a 6-foot-4, 345-pound beast in the middle.

Outside linebackers Kyle Van Noy and Thurston Armbrister in for Levy can be moved if Josh Sitton, Cody Whitehair and Kyle Long can consistently get to the second level.

Lions cornerback Darius Slay is one of the most underrated in the league at the position and he probably will wage an entertaining battle with Jeffery, but because of his contested

ball abilities, Jeffery rates a slight edge there. And on the other side, Kevin White will have a big size advantage on third-year player Nigel Lawson, who is only 5-9, 192 pounds.

There are no ball hawks in the Lions secondary for Brian Hoyer to fear, as safety Glover Quin has Detroit’s lone pick in three games.

If Hoyer plays smart and doesn’t take any silly chances, this defense gives him a real chance to make some plays.

On the other hand, the Lions’ offense is a serious challenge for the Bears’ injury-ravaged defense.

Nobody can replace Calvin “Megatron” Johnson, but Marvin Jones is taking a run at it with 18 catches for 408 yards, averaging 22.7 yards a catch to go along with two touchdowns through three games. Jones is on the Lions’ injury list with a hamstring but is expected to go.

Third-year tight end Eric Ebron also is off to a nice start with 14 catches for 168 yards and a touchdown, but Golden Tate has been slow out of the gate, catching only 13 passes for 94 yards, a 7.2-yard average.

The danger here is Matthew Stafford is arguably the hottest quarterback in the NFL since the middle of last season with 26 touchdowns and only four interceptions in his past 11 games.

The Lions haven’t run the ball particularly well, but look for rookie seventh-round draft choice Dwayne Washington to get extended playing time.

The Bears’ best hope of slowing the Lions’ offense is up front, where they are average with this year’s firstround pick Taylor Decker at left tackle and last year’s first-rounder, Laken Tomlinson – who is from Chicago by way of Duke – at guard, Travis Swanson at center, Larry Warford at right guard and Riley Reiff at right tackle.

The Bears have struggled to pressure quarterbacks, but the Lions are just 21st in percentage of sacks allowed, and if the Bears can find a pass rush, that will be their best hope of neutralizing or at least slowing Stafford.

Detroit Lions at Bears: What to watch for HOW TO WATCH/LISTEN

Noon kickoff on Fox (Kenny Albert, Daryl Johnston, Laura Okmin) and WBBM Radio 780 AM and 105.9 FM (Jeff Joniak, Tom Thayer, Zach Zaidman) KEY MATCHUP TO WATCH

Lions offensive tackles vs. Bears outside linebackers: Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott had plenty of time to throw last week, especially considering the Bears hit him only one time to go along with zero sacks. That pass rush needs to get going against Lions QB Matthew Stafford, hardly known for his legs but someone who can beat you with his arm. OLBs Leonard Floyd and Willie Young have to step up against Lions tackles Taylor Decker and Riley Reiff.

Detroit has allowed eight sacks through three games and probably will be throwing it a ton at Soldier Field on Sunday considering it’s their team strength going against a Bears’ weakness. Floyd and Young can change that if they get going. Floyd had his half sack against Houston and he did draw a holding penalty against Dallas, but he needs to show why he was a top-10 pick, using his speed, Leonard Floyd athleticism and length to affect Stafford. Young was outstanding against Philadelphia, but didn’t get to Prescott last week. Decker is a first-round pick for a reason, but he still is a rookie. Reiff, a former first-rounder, can be

beat on the right side. Bears defensive coordinator Vic Fangio said the pass rush wasn’t good enough against the Cowboys, and it’ll be a long day for the defense if the rush is ineffective again against Detroit.

X-FACTOR

WR Kevin White: What can White do for an encore after his 62-yard performance on 14 targets against the Cowboys, including a highlight-reel, 32-yard catch? If Darius Slay is covering Alshon Jeffery on Sunday afternoon, with safety Glover Quin keeping a close eye on the Bears’ top receiver, White will have favorable matchups, and he’ll need to take advantage. If he can build on all the confidence he and offensive coordinator Dowell Loggains discussed this week, Detroit’s sec-

ondary could allow him for another breakout game. The Bears can’t afford to leave points on the field considering what Stafford and the Lions can do, so White will be key to moving the football, whether it’s on screen passes or plays down the field, to keep up on the scoreboard.

STAT TO KEEP IN MIND

The Lions have won six games in a row against the Bears, but never have beaten the Bears seven times in a row in the series that dates to 1930.

NASCAR Rain pushes Xfinity race to Sunday:

At Dover, Del., rain washed out the NASCAR Xfinity Series race and there will be a Dover doubleheader Sunday.

The second-tier series race will start at 10 a.m. at Dover International Speedway. The NASCAR Sprint Cup race is scheduled for 2:15 p.m.

Chase for the Sprint Cup championship drivers Joey Logano, Kyle Busch and Austin Dillon are scheduled to pull double duty.

BASEBALL Cubs’ Jon Lester fails to get 20th victory as Reds win 7-4: At Cincinnati, Jon

Lester’s late-summer surge put him in position to get 20 wins for the first time in his career. The left-hander let his one chance slip away with an uncharacteristically poor performance.

No time to fume over it, though. He might be starting the Cubs’ first playoff game in a few days.

Lester struggled for the first time since mid-July as the Cincinnati Reds pulled away to a 7-4 victory on Saturday against what is likely to be Chicago’s lineup for its opening game of the playoffs.

Asked before the game if he’ll open the playoffs with the same lineup – including Lester on the mound – manager Joe Maddon said, “There’s a shot.”

The Cubs will host the NL wild-card playoff winner on Friday at Wrigley Field.

For now, it’s more about staying ready and accomplishing a few personal goals, such as a 20-win season.

Lester (19-5) found himself rushing on the mound Saturday as he gave up five runs in only five innings, including Eugenio Suarez’s two-run homer and a pair of RBIs by Joey Votto. The lefthander hadn’t allowed five runs in a start since July 9.

Buxton homers, Shields gets 19th loss; Twins beat White Sox: At Chicago, By-

ron Buxton and Jorge Polanco each hit a two-run home run to send James Shields to a major league high-tying 19th loss, and the Minnesota Twins beat the White Sox, 6-0, on Saturday night.

The Twins’ lost their 103rd game on Friday night, the most since the franchise moved to Minnesota. In this one, they got 61/3 innings of three-hit ball from Hector Santiago (13-10) in their third win in 14 games.

Buddy Boshers, J.T. Chargois and Brandon Kintzler completed the four-hitter.

Shields (6-19) concluded a career-worst season split between San Diego and Chicago by allowing five runs and four hits over seven innings.

His 40 home runs and 118 earned runs allowed are the most in the majors.

Only Tampa Bay’s Chris Archer has as many losses.

Shields is 4-12 since being traded to the Sox in June.

CHASKA, Minn. – The Americans are making all the right moves in this Ryder Cup. Even Tiger Woods.

Europe was riding the momentum as it inched within one point Saturday at Hazeltine. U.S. captain Davis Love III heard conflicting ideas on the radio and by text message from his assistant captains, all of them weighing in with the best lineup for the final session of team matches. The question was Patrick Reed and Jordan Spieth, the only Americans who had yet to sit out.

“I finally just said to Tiger, ‘Are we playing them or are we sitting them?’

He said, ‘No, you have to send them back out there,’” Love said.

Reed delivered another moment sure to burnish his growing Ryder Cup reputation.

He was at his bullish best in the anchor match with Jordan Spieth, taking over with great shots and chest-thumping cheers that set the tone for his team and put the Americans on the verge – again – of winning back the cup.

“He’s Captain America for us,” Spieth said after their 2-and-1 victory over Henrik Stenson and Justin Rose, securing a 91/2-61/2 lead.

The Americans need only five points from 12 singles matches to win the Ryder Cup for the first time since 2008, and only the third time in the last two decades.

Their biggest challenge now might be history.

They led 10-6 four years ago at Medinah when Europe put together a staggering display of putting and produced the largest comeback by a visiting team in Ryder Cup history. The Europeans refer to that as the “Miracle at Medinah,” and they might need another one Sunday.

Climbing the ladder of success

Mokena man owns top-performing location for national company

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

MOKENA – Commodity trader. Marketing/sales.

Those were some of Dan Lundstedt’s career plans for his business degree. But the economy tanked in late 2007 when Lundstedt graduated and a couple of his friends lost their first post-university jobs.

This was not the future Lundstedt envisioned for himself.

“I wanted to control my own destiny,” Lundstedt said.

So Lundstedt approached a family friend who was the co-owner in a new grout and tile restoration franchise – Sir Grout – about bringing Sir Grout to the Chicago area.

“I thought, ‘If ever was the time to make the leap, it’s now,’” Lundstedt said. “I had no financial commitments and I had no family commitments as far as a wife or kids or anything. I figured if I failed, I would not have too far to fall.”

But Lundstedt didn’t fail.

Or fall.

In February 2008 at the age of 22, Lundstedt opened his first franchise. Lundstedt now owns four – all of which serve the greater Chicago area – and employs about six to eight people, said Jeff Gill, co-owner of Sir Grout.

Lundstedt is now the largest revenue franchise for the company and sets the pace for the other franchises, Gill said.

And Lundstedt manages all of them from an office inside his Mokena home.

“The thing about Dan is he’s creative; he’s not afraid to take chances; he’s very trainable and very coachable; and he has a true entrepreneur spirit. It’s built into his DNA. I can see it,” Gill said. “His dad was president of a division of Honeywell, so he comes from good pedigree. And he has a very strong work ethic, which you can’t teach.”

During Lundstedt’s soph-

omore year at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Tom Lindberg, a family friend who founded Sir Grout with Gill, offered Lundstedt a summer job in his newly formed company. Lundstedt said he was “fairly handy” and decided to “give it a shot.”

He worked for Sir Grout for two summers.

“We take a floor that’s structurally sound and in good shape, but dirty, maybe cracked,” Lundstedt said.

“Maybe the tile is broken. We make it look like new.”

Technicians clean and restore grout lines and seal them, Lundstedt said. They may also do a bit of regrouting and retiling, depending on the job site. In addition to repairing floors in entryways, kitchens and bathrooms, Sir Grout also repairs marble and granite flooring and countertops, he added.

“We can take a countertop that’s beaten up and damaged and bring it back to ‘like new’ for the fraction of the cost,” Lundstedt said.

One benefit to those summer jobs is that Lundstedt literally can roll up his sleeve and do the dirty work, if need be. But then, he feels owners should know their businesses from every angle.

“I’ve been the guy at the bottom of the ladder and worked my way up in that sense,” Lundstedt said. “I still, to this day, go out on job sites and do work for my technicians.”

On days Lundstedt’s not home, he’s driving to customer’s homes and businesses.

He’s watched his business grow.

“On the residential side of the business, we’ve grown between 20 and 40 percent every year we’ve been in business,” Lundstedt said. “We’ve done a couple of hotel projects and a fair amount of work for business in the city – lobbies and common spaces – so we’re

The average residential job costs $1,000, Lundstedt said, as opposed to commercial work that could average $20,000 to $30,000 per job. It’s likely Lundstedt will see it.

He works 80 hours a week and rarely takes a day off, which is worth it to him.

“I make sure there’s work

for all the crews and that we get the jobs done,” he said.

Early on, the business industry had an eye on Lundstedt. In addition to winning awards in the company, Lundstedt appeared in the September 2011 issue of “Entrepreneur” and is now part of Entrepreneur Organization Chicago, where he networks

and set goals with other successful small business owners.

And Lundstedt has two good reasons for doing so: his wife, Lauren Lundstedt, and his newborn daughter.

“I just want to continue to grow,” Lundstedt said. “I’d love to pass it down generation to generation in my family.”

The HERALD–NEWS JOLIET – President Barack Obama recently named Glenbard East High School Dean Mike Fumagalli a recipient of the Presidential Award for Excellence in Mathematics and Science Teaching, according to a news release from Glenbard Township High School District 87.

Fumagalli was a 2001 Joliet West High School graduate. He went to the University of Iowa to earn his bache-

lor’s in athletic training and his master’s in science education. He has also earned his master’s in educational leadership from Concordia University.

Mike Fumagalli is one of Fumagalli 213 awardees from all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, U.S. territories and the Department of Defense Education Activity schools. He is one of only

two grade 7-12 educators in Illinois to earn the award, according to the release.

The Presidential Award for Excellence in Mathematics and Science Teaching is awarded to outstanding K-12 science and mathematics teachers from across the country. Before coming to Glenbard East, Fumagalli was a science teacher at East Leyden High School, the release stated.

The winners are selected by a panel of scientists, mathematicians and ed-

ucators following an initial selection process at the state level, according to the release.

Winners of this presidential honor receive a $10,000 award from the National Science Foundation and are invited to Washington, D.C., for an awards ceremony, as well as educational and celebratory events and visits with members of the administration.

Shingles vaccine not for all

Dear Dr. K: You’ve written about who should get the shingles vaccine and why.

Are there any groups of people who should not get the shingles vaccine?

Dear Reader: I’m glad you asked because, yes, there are groups of people who should not get the vaccine.

Shingles is a painful skin rash, often with blisters, that lasts from two to four weeks. Its main symptom is pain, which can be quite severe. For some people, the severe pain of shingles continues long after the rash clears up. Called post-herpetic neuralgia, this condition can last for months, or even years. It can be quite debilitating.

Shingles is caused by the varicella zoster virus (VZV), the same virus that causes chickenpox. VZV quietly remains in your body after you recover from chickenpox, but it can reactivate and cause shingles many years later.

Most adults age 60 years and older should get a vaccine called Zostavax. The vaccine helps prevent shingles – and it decreases the risk of post-herpetic neuralgia if shingles does occur. The vaccine also is approved for people ages 50 and older.

People generally should get the shingles vaccine even if they already have had shingles: The vaccine will reduce the risk of getting shingles again.

The shingles vaccine consists of actual living varicella zoster virus that has been greatly weakened. The weakened virus stimulates the immune system the same way infection with the regular virus would.

However, the virus has been so weakened that it cannot cause problems in people with healthy immune systems.

Still, some people should not get the shingles vaccine or should wait. This includes: • Anyone who has had a se-

vere allergic reaction to gelatin, the antibiotic neomycin, or any other component of the shingles vaccine. Tell your doctor if you have any severe allergies.

• A woman who is pregnant, or might be pregnant. Women should not become pregnant until at least four weeks after getting the shingles vaccine. That’s because pregnant women have a somewhat weakened immune system.

• Anyone with a moderate or severe illness (including a temperature of 101.3 degrees F. or higher) should wait until they recover before getting the vaccine. The vaccine is less effective when given to someone who is sick with another infection.

• A person who has a weakened immune system, and therefore might be made sick by the virus in the vaccine. People with weakened immune systems include those: – with HIV/AIDS or another disease that affects the immune system; – receiving treatment with drugs that affect the immune system (for example, prolonged use of high-dose steroids); – receiving cancer treatment such as radiation or chemotherapy; – who have cancer affecting the bone marrow or lymphatic system, such as leukemia or lymphoma.

Shingles is no fun – and post-herpetic neuralgia can be very debilitating. So the shingles vaccine has been a very good thing for most people, but not for all.

Man’s declaration of love wavers when he’s drunk

Dear Abby: I have been living with my boyfriend for 11 months. Things are mostly good, but there are a few things I need your advice on.

He still hasn’t introduced me to his grown daughter, and he stays in contact with his ex-wife. When he gets drunk, he texts her and tells her he loves her and wants to go back home to her, but when he’s sober, he insists he loves only me and wants us to spend our lives together.

Do you think he’s still in love with her, or does he really love me? I have talked to his friends. They say he loves me and not her because he wouldn’t be with me if he didn’t. – Loves Me, Loves

Please call 815-467-0566 or cell 815-370-0734 Louis Sachar, an author of children’s books, said, “I write in the mornings, two or three hours every day, and then at least four times a week I play in a duplicate game at a bridge club. I try to go to tournaments three, four, or five times a year.”

It is always great to hear about someone who thinks bridge is good for his or her career.

In today’s deal, though, the winning defense isn’t child’s play. South is in four hearts. West leads the spade two, and East takes dummy’s king with his ace. How should East plan the defense from there?

When North jumped to three clubs, South could have rebid a game-forcing three hearts, guaranteeing at least a six-card suit, but he knew that a slam was impossible, his hearts were self-sufficient, and his club ace suggested that three no-trump would not be best. So he signed off in four hearts.

West’s low-spade lead from length indicates at least one honor in the suit. So East can see three winners: two spades and one heart. Where is the fourth trick?

East can place the club ace with South; otherwise, his four-heart bid was overly ambitious. Also, from West’s opening lead, East knows that South started with three low spades.

If only the defenders could remove dummy’s trumps and cash those spades.

However, note that if East cashes the heart ace and plays his second heart, declarer will draw West’s last trump and run the clubs.

At trick two, East must shift to his low heart. Then South has no answer.
