Candidate Josh Boedigheimer announces bid for Putnam County sheriff seat Boedigheimer has served as deputy sheriff, commander of Tri-DENT SHAW LOCAL NEWS NETWORK Deputy Sheriff and Commander of the Tri-County Drug Enforcement Narcotics Team Josh Boedigheimer announced his candidacy for Putnam County sheriff.

He will be seeking the Democratic nomination in the 2022 primary.

Boedigheimer is a 23-year veteran of the Putnam County Sheriff’s Department and a lifelong resident of Putnam County. He and his wife, Jill, reside in Mark with their three sons.

“It has been an honor to serve the citizens of Putnam County all these years and I am excited to continue that lifelong commitment to the county as your sheriff,” Boedigheimer said.

Boedigheimer began his full-time career in law enforcement in 1998 as a deputy sheriff with the Putnam County Sheriff’s Office. He has also served as an officer in the villages of Granville and Mark. In 2010, Boedigheimer was provided an opportunity to join Tri-DENT as a narcotics agent, advancing to commander in 2014. He oversees multiple highly-experienced undercover street level agents and a highway interdiction team that have seized thousands of pounds of illegal drugs and millions of dollars of illicit currency. He has been involved in more than 1,000 narcotic investigations leading to the felony arrest of hundreds of offenders. Under Boedigheimer’s command Tri-DENT has gained national attention for its investigative narcotic work within the region and outside of it, he said.

Boedigheimer earned a bachelor’s degree in crim-

“I have spent a better part of my life in public service and volunteering as a way of investing in our community and all those who live in it.”

Josh Boedigheimer

inal justice from Illinois State University, attended the University of Illinois Police Training Institute and completed the Northwestern University Supervision of Police Personnel Training. He has completed community level policing and narcotics training opportunities during his extensive law enforcement career.

“I have spent a better part of my life in public service and volunteering as a way of investing in our community and all those who live in it,” he said.

Boedigheimer began his volunteer service to Putnam County citizens by joining the Standard Fire Department while in high school. He served as a trustee for the village of Standard while in college, coached more than 20 summers of Putnam County youth baseball, served six years on the Bi-County Baseball Board and volunteered as a youth hockey coach in Bloomington for 10 years.

“The knowledge and experiences I gained in my career in law enforcement and public service, the relationships I acquired with local law enforcement leaders, and the resources I’ve established with federal, state and local agencies put me in a great position to make sound decisions on behalf of the Putnam County Sheriff’s Office and the citizens it provides service to.”

As sheriff of Putnam County, Boedigheimer said

There have been 152 residents removed from isolation since Dec. 17. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there have been 45 patients hospitalized for

The La Salle County Health Department is encouraging residents to get vaccinated to stop the spread of COVID-19. Individuals who need to start the COVID-19 vaccination series should call the La Salle County Health Department at 815-433-3366 to schedule an appointment. The health department has Johnson and Johnson, Moderna and Pfizer available.

COVID-19 in the past week.

Making up the new cases are 41 boys younger than 13, 32 girls younger than 13, 28 teenage boys, 29 teenage girls, 44 men in their 20s, 48 women in their 20s, 49 men in their 30s, 49 women in their 30s, 33 men in their 40s,

36 women in their 40s, 23 men in their 50s, 34 women in their 50s, 25 men in their 60s, 12 women in their 60s, five men in their 70s, 11 women in their 70s, four men in their 80s and eight women in their 80s.

A breakdown of new

cases by ZIP code was not available Thursday.

La Salle County is experiencing high community transmission based on the 7-day moving average of new cases per 100,000 (602.75 per 100,000) of COVID-19 (as of Tuesday).

The county also remains in the state’s warning level for COVID-19 transmission.

A warning level means the county saw increases in two or more COVID-19 risk indicators.

Because most of Illinois is experiencing high transmission rates, the La Salle County Health Department recommends anyone who may have recently been exposed to someone who has COVID-19 be tested about 5 to 7 days after that exposure, even if they have no symptoms. Early detection allows individuals to gain guidance for medical treatment during early stages of the disease, which can reduce the need for hospitalizations, and can also reduce deaths. Testing also helps us quickly identify and isolate new cases, which reduces further spread of the disease.

La Salle County Health

Department also urges everyone 5 years and older to get vaccinated and all eligible individuals to get a booster.

To search for a vaccine available near you, go to lasallecounty.org/covid-19-vaccineupdate or go to vaccines.gov.

Individuals who need to start the COVID-19 vaccination series should call the La Salle County Health Department at 815-4333366 to schedule an appointment. The health department has Johnson and Johnson, Moderna and Pfizer available.

To schedule a booster dose or a Pfizer child vaccination, go to www.lasallecounty.org and click on the “COVID-19 Vaccine Information” icon. The La Salle County Health Department offers these type of vaccinations on a weekly basis by appointment only.

There are 59,045 residents fully vaccinated in La Salle County, which is 53.96% of the county’s population; 64,039 residents have received at least one dose of vaccine, which is 58.52% of the county’s population and 22,753 residents have gotten their booster shots.

4 arrested in La Salle County after investigation into cocaine, meth dealing

The Illinois State Police would like to remind the motoring public of the requirements of Scott’s Law, otherwise known as the “Move Over” law.

Shaw Media

Tri-DENT agents lead the investigation

By DEREK BARICHELLO

dbarichello@shawmedia.com Four arrests were made Wednesday in La Salle County after an investigation into drug dealing from a Tonica residence.

About 12:30 p.m., Tri-County Drug Enforcement Narcotics Team agents, assisted by the La Salle County Sheriff’s Office, stopped Tiffany R. Daniels, 41, of Streator, and Fredrick C. Dutton, 38, of Tonica, in a traffic stop on East Third Road in southern La Salle County. Daniels and Dutton were arrested on complaints of unlawful delivery of a controlled substance – methamphetamine.

The arrest warrants were obtained after a narcotic investigation conducted by Tri-DENT where both Daniels and Dutton, on more than one occasion, delivered less than 5 grams of methamphetamine to drug agents from the residence of 14 Bailey Creek in Tonica, authorities said.

Both Daniels and Dutton were taken to the La Salle County Jail awaiting bond.

Daniel’s bond was set at $500,000 and Dutton’s is at $750,000.

After the traffic stop, Tri-DENT agents, assisted by the La Salle County Tactical Response Team, executed a search warrant at 14 Bailey Creek in Tonica.

Authorities located Caprecio D. Patterson, 43, of Marseilles, who was wanted on a La Salle County warrant for a charge of unlawful delivery of a controlled substance – cocaine.

The arrest warrant was obtained after a narcotic investigation conducted by Tri-DENT in the Ottawa area where Patterson and Carlee S. Conrad, 32, of Ottawa, delivered to drug agents less than 1 gram of cocaine.

Conrad also was arrested Wednesday, as she arrived in court on an unrelated matter.

Both Patterson and Conrad are being held at the La Salle County Jail awaiting bond.

Patterson’s bond was set at $350,000 and Conrad’s at $250,000.

“The successful outcome of these arrests are a direct reflection of the hard work and continued efforts of Tri-DENT agents in investigating and tracking down those that distribute illegal narcotics in the Illinois Valley,” Commander Josh Boedigheimer said.

Scott’s Law Day: Illinois State Police remind motorists to move over during heavy travel weekend SHAW MEDIA The Illinois State Police would like to remind the motoring public of the requirements of Scott’s Law, otherwise known as the “Move Over” law.

When approaching an emergency vehicle or any vehicle with their emergency or hazard lights activated, drivers are required to slow down and move over.

Dec. 23 of each year is designated as Scott’s Law Day. The “Move Over” law was enacted in 2002 in memory of Lt. Scott Gillen of the Chicago Fire Department who was struck and killed on Dec. 23, 2000, by an intoxicated driver on the Dan Ryan Expressway while assisting at a crash scene.

In the past five years, the ISP has seen increased numbers in crashes involving Scott’s Law. In 2021, there have been a total of 22 ISP squad cars

Zac Lehn

struck in relation to Scott’s Law and 13 troopers have had injuries from Scott’s Law-related crashes.

A person who violates Scott’s Law commits a business offense and faces a fine of no less than $250 or more than $10,000 for a first offense. If the violation results in injury to another person, the violator’s driver’s license will be suspended for a mandatory period of anywhere between six months and two years.

“True winter weather road conditions have yet to reach Illinois,” ISP Director Brendan Kelly said. “It is everyone’s responsibility to pay attention to the road and drive responsibly.

Our troopers are out there making sure those people stuck on the side of the road are safe, so please protect the troopers that are trying to protect you.”

St. Margaret’s Health in Peru, Spring Valley encourages more vaccinations SHAW MEDIA St. Margaret’s Health in Peru and Spring Valley has had a spike in the rate of COVID-19 cases requiring hospitalization, specifically targeting a younger demographic and mostly among those who remain unvaccinated.

As of Sunday, Illinois had 3,960 COVID-19 patients in the hospital – the most in almost a year. As of Monday, St. Margaret’s total inpatient census was at about 50% COVID-19 patients, as the line at the testing facility swelled and snaked throughout the parking lot. In La Salle County, 8% of ICU beds are available as of the most recent data, and hospitalizations have increased in 10 out of the past 10 days.

As holiday festivities and gatherings continue, the number of positive COVID-19 cases and exposures continue to rise at an alarming rate, St. Margaret’s said in a news release Wednesday. According to Illinois Department of Public Health data, Illi-

nois is averaging more than 10,000 new COVID-19 cases per day for the first time since Nov. 27, 2020.

“The fact still holds true that if you are vaccinated, you are far less likely to need admission to the hospital,” said Dr. Bob Morrow, St. Margaret’s Family Health Center physician. “You are far less likely to die from [COVID-19].”

St. Margaret’s said in its news release that the hospital has seen too many patients die unnecessarily because of refusal to vaccinate.

The most recent data shows that La Salle and Bureau counties report 53.78% and 51.83% fully vaccinated, respectively. If trends continue, St. Margaret’s is concerned patients or their loved ones will not have prompt access to necessary, required care – whether it is COVID-19-related or for some other medical emergency, injury or illness.

“We’ve had patients with strokes and heart attacks wait for days for state-of-the-art treatment because there are no tertiary care beds avail-

able in our region,” Morrow said.

“There have been ambulances stacked up and waiting in our parking lots because we don’t have beds available and most of our ventilators are in use.”

OSF HealthCare is reporting the same trends. COVID-19 hospitalizations continue to be mostly among those who have not gotten vaccinated, the hospital chain said in a Wednesday announcement.

Across its chain of hospitals, there are 292 patients hospitalized with COVID-19. Of those patients, 74.3% of them are not fully vaccinated. Fifty-two COVID-19 patients are in the ICU (86.5% of them are not fully vaccinated) and 34 are on ventilators (85.2% of them are not fully vaccinated). OSF has hospitals or health centers in Ottawa, Streator, Princeton, Mendota and Pontiac.

At Morris Hospital, 40 of the 76 patients hospitalized have been diagnosed with COVID-19 – 35 of the 40 with COVID-19 are not fully vaccinated. Eight patients are in ICU (six not vaccinated) and five are on a ventilator

Hospitals aren’t the only places affected by this influx of patients. St. Margaret’s walk-in clinics also are experiencing a surge of patients looking for answers.

“The surge in cases that you may see on TV in big cities like New York and Chicago is playing out right here in our own community,” said Dr. Rahul Sampat, St. Margaret’s Midtown Health Center Walk-In Clinic physician. “And the surge isn’t limited to only [COVID-19]. Unlike last year, flu and RSV are also surging, which only complicates the issue.”

To help protect the Illinois Valley, St. Margaret’s is asking the following: Get vaccinated. The vast majority of St. Margaret’s hospitalized COVID-19 patients are unvaccinated. If fully vaccinated, get the booster shot.

Mask up when in public and indoors regardless of vaccination status, but especially if unvaccinated.

Hospitals in the area are encouraging vaccinations as COVID-19 cases spike. to the patient themselves. It also frees up additional and necessary resources for patients in more critical conditions, the hospital said in its news release. Critically ill patients – both COVID-19 and otherwise – are stuck waiting in the emergency department for far too long to be admitted or transferred.

It also is crucial to recognize an ambulance trip to the emergency department does not guarantee a faster COVID-19 test result.

Get tested if displaying symptoms, and do so as soon as possible. If positive, ask a medical provider if there are any other underlying conditions that would qualify you for outpatient treatment.

Use convenient care or a physician’s office. Do not come to the Emergency Department unless it is an emergency. Ask your provider about virtual visits or use a walk-in clinic, unless experiencing breathing restriction or other life-threatening symptoms such as chest pain.

Stay home if test results are positive to avoid affecting others who might find themselves in the hospital. Quarantine within one’s home to avoid infecting other family members.

Vaccination remains the key defense for COVID19, but Emergency Medical Services also bear a large responsibility for keeping exposures to a minimum.

EMS staff have had to make split-second decisions to keep patients safe, but this ongoing pandemic has added other difficult decisions to their slate as well.

While COVID-19 can be an emergency situation for some patients with comorbidities, most will experience mild to moderate symptoms that may not require hospital medical care. Utilization of the traditional destination to the emergency department may not be appropriate. A “shelter-in-place” (quarantine-type) attitude may take place if the patient’s symptoms do not warrant an emergency department visit and their symptoms can be maintained with a virtual visit with their provider and over-the-counter medications.

This reduces the exposure of a possible COVID infection to the EMS provider, hospital frontline staff and

“If you have symptoms or are exposed, please get tested,” Sampat said.

“Even one symptom for one day warrants testing.

“There are treatments available if you test positive and have risk factors for progressing to severe disease.

The treatment helps to reduce your need to be hospitalized, and even more importantly, reduces your risk of death. The treatment is available to vaccinated individuals and is highly recommended for unvaccinated individuals. It is an excellent course of action to take strain off the hospital system. Please call your provider for more information.”

St. Margaret’s Health is experiencing the same difficulties as most businesses throughout the area and country in regard to staffing and supply shortages.

Health care staff is dedicated and working hard, but is also short staffed and overwhelmed, and this affects every employee, according to the release.

“Our staff is mentally and physically exhausted, and quite frankly hanging on by a thread at times,” Morrow said. “Our ability to care for our community is in jeopardy. We are on the precipice of disaster.”

“If the public could only see a glimpse of the dedication, strain, depression, helplessness of our staff and employees; and the look, desperation, worry and helplessness of the patients and families right now,” said Dr. Eric Santos, pathologist and St. Margaret’s medical staff president.

Every step the public takes to help protect one another allows St. Margaret’s Health staff to provide quality health care to those who critically need it at this time, the hospital said in its news release.

“We ask for your patience, your diligence, your understanding and your compassion. Only together, with everyone’s help, can we end this,” according to the release.

Hefty Seed in Princeton hosts ‘King of Corn’ Growers get a lesson from world-record holder for corn yields SHAW LOCAL NEWS NETWORK David Hula of Charles City, Virginia, who has been dubbed the “King of Corn” due to his smashing world-record corn yields, made a stop in Princeton mid-December to meet with growers and compare notes on this past year’s growing season.

The two-day meeting was hosted by Hefty Seed Company-Princeton and is part of a program started

by Hula and Randy Dowdy of Valdosta, Georgia, who is the world-record holder for soybean yields.

The two have paired up and taken their farming knowledge on the road to share with growers from around the nation who commit to their Next Level program. In a farm-camp setting, Hula and Dowdy conduct intense learning sessions that center on shared data and exchange of information among growers who come from all sorts of farming backgrounds.

Matt Denton, manager of Hefty Seed Company-Princeton, describes Next Level as a group of elite farmers, growers who want to learn from one another with the same goal in mind – grow higher yields.

Andy Gehm, a grower who resides in Granville, has been with the program since its 2018 inception in Princeton.

He said he joined the Next Level group to gain knowledge to help increase profits on his operation.

“Being in the program helps me to try and keep

More than 100 growers, both locally and from around the Midwest, met at Hefty Seed Company in Princeton, on Dec. 15 and 16 to learn from David Hula, world-record holder for corn yields. The farm camp was part of the Dowdy Crop Innovation’s Next Level Program. myself elevated with new and old family practices that are beneficial to my operation,” he said. “I enjoy getting together with other growers and listening to their stories of success and failure.

“I’ve continued to learn from the group and its leaders’ information that I would typically not have exposed myself to elsewhere. I have added value to my operation.”

Garrett Badtke of Thomson, Illinois, is a fifth-generation farmer and agrees that the Next Level program has added value to his operation.

Badtke, who farms alongside his father, said when he used up all the knowledge he knew about farming, he turned to other sources looking for more and stumbled upon Next Level.

“I figured it would be a great place to learn more.

I have gotten a lot of knowledge out of it, and I have built a lot of good relationships with other growers in the program,” he said. “If you’re familiar with tissue sampling, it’s a really good program to expand your knowledge on that and get all your questions answered after taking samples. … You think you have got something under control and that’s never the case.”

Badtke added that the conversations he’s had during Next Level meetings are far more in-depth than any conversation he has had in the ag industry.

“I’ve been with (Next Level) for three years and have learned a lot and I am looking forward to the next three years. It’s amazing how many meetings you go to and end up learning more each time,” he said.

In the Next Level program, growers must sign a nondisclosure agreement before joining, which is crucial when sharing data and information among one another. Growers must also commit to a threeyear contract when joining and pay an annual fee to participate. Each Next Level grower benefits from four two-day farm camps every year, access to a dynamic software system customized to the industry and a community of other growers to support them well beyond the program.

SPORTS LADY BRUINS CHRISTMAS CLASSIC

Fieldcrest tops Princeton, makes history

Putnam County then opened the fourth quarter on a 7-2 run to build a seven-point cushion and held on to beat the top-seeded Hornets.

“To come over here and go 3-1 in a tough tournament, I’m really happy with that because I do think it could have went the exact opposite,” PC coach Jared Sale said about his sixth-seeded Panthers (108). “To grind out two games by less than three points, winning against Seneca at the buzzer and pulling this one out is just huge. I like where we’re at.”

Leading 23-22 in the fourth, Uzella hit a jumper, Mikenna Boyd scored a layup and Ava Hatton drove for a bucket to give PC a 29-22 lead.

Erin Brooker scored a layup after the Panthers broke the press to extend the lead back to seven at 31-24.

Hatton finished with 14 points and six rebounds for PC. Uzella contributed nine points, five boards, two steals and two assists.

Putnam County beats stateranked Eureka for third place

By KEVIN CHLUM

kchlum@shawmedia.com PERU – Over the past few years, the Fieldcrest girls basketball team has made program history several times.

The Knights recorded their first 20-win season in 2017 and did it again in 2019 and 2020. Fieldcrest captured the program’s first regional championship in 2019 and repeated in 2020.

The Knights added another achievement to their résumé Wednesday, Dec. 22 as they pulled away from Princeton for a 57-25 victory to claim the St. Bede Lady Bruins Christmas Classic championship for the first time.

“It feels great,” Fieldcrest junior Haley Carver said. “We’ve all been waiting for this moment. We’ve been pushing ourselves, especially since it’s the first time for our school. It turned out great. This was a great game. We pushed ourselves our hardest.”

The Knights, who have only played in the LBCC title game one other time (2013), finished the first half of the season with a perfect 17-0 record.

“We’ve had a lot of firsts these last few seasons as a program,” Fieldcrest coach Mitch Neally said. “I challenged the girls and said doing something that’s a first as a program is something that is very special. We knew how important it would be tonight to get that first one for this group and to cap off what we’ve done in the first half of this season. It’s a credit to all these girls and how hard they’ve worked so far.”

Also Wednesday, Putnam County edged Eureka, 32-30, in the third-place game, Seneca routed Yorkville Christian, 59-38, for fifth place, and host St. Bede topped Kewanee, 50-37, in the seventh-place game.

The championship was close throughout the first half as neither team led by more than six points.

Fieldcrest led 8-7 after the first quarter and 19-14 at halftime.

In the third quarter, the Knights turned up the defensive pressure as they forced 10 turnovers and held the Tigresses to two points for the first 7:40 of the quarter.

Fieldcrest converted several turnovers into easy points and Carver buried a pair of 3-pointers and scored 10 points in the quarter as the Knights built a 40-19 lead.

The Knights pushed their lead to 30 at 53-23 with 3:36 left on a pair of free throws by Ashlyn May to start the running clock.

The Tigresses started the game strong as Olivia Gartin swiped a steal on Fieldcrest’s first possession and went in for a transition layup.

Fieldcrest took an 8-2 lead, but PHS rallied with a 3-pointer by Gartin and a bucket off a turnover by Erin May. Princeton took the lead at 10-8 when Gartin sank a 3-pointer with 7:47 left in the second quarter.

ton coach Darcy Kepner said. “It’s not the way we wanted it to turn out, but I’m super proud of the girls. We were the fourth seed coming in and we ended up second, so nothing to be ashamed about by any means.

“I’m proud with how we hung around with them. Fieldcrest is a good team and we stuck with them for a half. It got a little out of control in the second half, but our effort and energy never lacked.”

Carver led all scorers with 18 points, while Kaitlin White scored 12 points for Fieldcrest and Ashlyn May added 10 points, along with eight steals and five assists.

MARSEILLES HOLIDAY TOURNAMENT

13

BY CHARLIE ELLERBROCK

cellerbrock@shawmedia.com For the past 11 years, fans have flocked to the Marseilles Holiday Tournament seeking and finding the exciting, quality small-school basketball that’s been a staple in north central Illinois for nearly a century.

But the last one in that town might just be the best one yet.

The announcement by tournament founder and manager Jeff Owens that this will be the last such event held at Marseilles Grade School and will be moved to Marquette’s Bader Gym in 2022 came as a shocker to many.

But while many of the coaches have grown attached to the venue and the people involved and are sad to see the change, they’re also feeling this year’s finale running from Dec. 27-30 could provide the most competitive basketball that gym has ever seen.

“The tournament’s wide open,” said Brian Yoder, coach of No. 2 seed Flanagan-Cornell. “Every year, the No. 1 seed is usually there, but it’s a crap shoot after that. On any given night, you could be on the winning side and then have it reversed the next night.

We could beat anybody and anybody could beat us. It’ll be exciting to see what happens.”

Seneca coach Russ Witte, whose club is the No. 1 seed and 5-4, concurred, “It’s gonna be a dogfight with 10-11 teams capable of taking home hardware. I hope everyone can stay out of quarantine so we can see all these great matchups … If I were a spectator, I would sit down and watch this whole tournament. It’s going to be fantastic.”

The Fighting Irish will do battle against Wilmington (1-5) Monday to start the lower half of the bracket.

Behind hot-shooting senior Zach Pfiefer, Seneca has already topped three other tourney teams in Somonauk (62-60), Woodland (47-28) and Gardner-South Wilmington (8257), but lost its last two games. It hopes to catch the Wildcats still without their basketball legs after winning the Class 2A football state title.

“They’re about three weeks behind everyone else, but they will get better as the season goes along,” Witte said.

“I know their guards are solid, very active at both ends, are relatively

physical and they do a good job crashing the glass, something we didn’t do well against Newark last night. We have to kinda right the ship. We have to do a better job to prove we’re worthy of that No. 1 seed.”

The winner/loser will get the same from the 5 p.m. contest between No. 8 seeded Dwight (3-4) and its towering 6-foot-7, 6-5 and 6-5 front line, and Serena. Coach Dain Twait’s Huskers, led by senior guard Cam Figgins, are going in with a 3-6 record and have faced three MCT clubs, defeating Indian Creek (63-48) and GSW (62-42), while losing to Earlville (64-62).

If the seeding meeting had taken place today, Marquette, at 8-1, might be higher than the No. 4 seed. The Crusaders take on Gardner-South Wilmington (4-8). The Cru’s Tom Durdan and twins Beau and Brady Ewers will be tested by GSW and sophomore sharpshooter Cale Halpin.

“We’re doing OK, but we have a lot of room to improve,” said MA coach Todd Hopkins, whose team finished fifth at last week’s Colmone Classic.

“They’re big and strong, so they’re gonna give us fits. We’ll have to be on top of our game to win that one.

“This is the most balanced this tournament’s been. In the last couple of years, we had Kewanee and Indian Creek were loaded, and Kewanee is still probably physically the best team over there now, but you never know.

Everybody’s pretty solid. The whole tournament, it’s flip a coin.”

That contest will determine who plays the winner/loser from No. 5 Reed-Custer (3-3) and Earlville at 8 p.m.

The Red Raiders are 4-5 this season, including wins over Serena (64-62) and Woodland (54-48 with 16 points each from Bryar Keller, Griffin Cook and Ryan Browder) and losses to Dwight (68-53) and Indian Creek (51-48).

In the top half of the bracket, the seeds say that No. 2 Flanagan-Cornell (6-3) is the team to beat, but the experienced Falcons will not have an easy road. Led by seniors Sam Jones, Tyler Pfaff and JD Ruddy, F-C will take on Indian Creek (3-8), the defending champion from back in 2019.

It could then have to face the winner/loser between No. 7 Kewanee (5-5), a team that sees primarily 3A schools and is paced by star guard Nico Powe, and St. Bede (6-4), led by one of the state’s leading scorers in 6-3 senior Paul Hart.

“We saw (Indian Creek) play well against a good Scales Mound team, which is one of the best 1A teams we’ve seen this year, so they’re pretty good,” Yoder said. “They’re legit. They’re

gonna play hard and it’s gonna be a battle, and either Indian Creek or us is going to have a tough time facing Kewanee. They could be the best team in it.”

No. 3 Somonauk (7-4) will meet Woodland (3-8) in its opener. Against tourney teams, the Bobcats have defeated Hall (77-61), but lost to Seneca (62-60) and Putnam County (56-47).

With standouts in Alex Krejci and Brendan Roberts, Somonauk coach Curt Alsvig knows his club is solid, but also knows they can’t overlook the Warriors and double-double threat Phoenix Cooper if it wants to advance forward.

If it can, it will square off with the winner between the Jackson McDonald-led No. 6 seed, Putnam County, a

now intact 7-8 team that’s beaten Seneca and Somonauk already this season, and Hall (3-8) in the opener.

“I think this will be the most competitive tournament we’ve been a part of,” Alsvig said. “You could have drawn the teams out of a hat this year and there are some unseeded teams who are probably gonna shake things up, teams playing hard like Woodland, Serena and Hall, and who knows who’s gonna be healthy. It might come down to that.

“I’m anxious, but it’s a good anxious for me. I wish I could spend every single minute over there watching every single game because I think there’s going to be really good games there. For the last year over there, what a way to go out.”
