There is nothing that expands one’s horizons quite like traveling to foreign lands, but the next best thing is meeting people from other countries.

Horizons were broadened on Wednesday, Nov. 20, when City officials hosted a delegation of people visiting Chicago from Ukraine through a program hosted by the Council of International Programs (CIP). CIP Chicago is the nonprofit group that organized the delegates’ activities in Illinois.

The visiting delegates include Olekshii Mushak, the Prime Minister’s Advisor on Economic Affairs; Taras Kremin, Commissioner for the Protection of the State Language; and Olena Matuzko, co-founder of the Institute for Information Security.

Roman Oleksenko, Community Development Program Manager from the Peace Corps in Ukraine, served as the program’s facilitator.

With them was Irina Hobbs, who acted as the interpreter to keep conversations flowing. They were joined by George Palamattam and Karol [pronounced: Carl] Nowak, both from CIP Chicago. Valerii Karpuntsov, who is a prosecutor in Ukraine, was unable to attend because he was ill.

Last week, a delegation from Ukraine visiting the Chicago area took time to stop at the City of Elmhurst to learn more about local government and how it relates to the state and federal government. Pictured are (back row, from left): George Palamattam, executive director for CIP Chicago; Taras Kremin, Ph.D, language professor and candidate for Ombudsman of Ukrainian Language; Elmhurst City Manager Jim Grabowski; 2nd Ward Alderman Bob Dunn; Karol [pronounced: Carl] Nowak, program coordinator for CIP Chicago; (front row): Roman Oleksenko, U.S. Peace Corps-Ukraine, which boasts the largest number of American Peace Corps volunteers in the world; Oleksii Mushak, economic ad-viser to the Prime Minister of Ukraine; Olena Matuzko, owner of IIS Marketing, Public Relations and Political Consulting; and, Irina Hobbs, a language interpreter for the group.

everywhere.”

Sharing how they live, a delegate said most people in Ukraine reside in apartments, rather than houses. Some of the visitors had children and were asked what they were taking back as souvenirs. One of the gentlemen said that, while in downtown Chicago, he had purchased a princess dress for his daughter that included a shoes and a magic wand. Another bought a big Lego® building set for his two boys who are 6 and 13.

Among the things the delegates did while in Chicago was take the Riverwalk, visit the sky deck at Willis Tower, eat lunch at the Signature Room at the top of the John Hancock building and attend a Chicago Bulls game (unfortunately they lost). They also went to the Christmas Market going on right now in the plaza where the Picasso sculpture is located. The delegates enjoyed seeing it.

The upcoming holiday season The Ukrainians said their communities don’t have tree-lighting events like we do here in Elmhurst, but they begin the holiday season on Dec. 1 with the Advent Calendar. They hold a big celebration for the New Year, and they do decorate their homes with Christmas trees and other holiday trimmings.

Mentioning how Christmas is a time of charity in America, the visitors said they take up collections for their soldiers and veterans. Ukraine is just now beginning to recognize how important it is to treat post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) for those who have served in the armed forces.

Finally, a lesson in cultural differences revealed itself when a man in the room was studying a business card with a furrowed brow.

“I have a question about Mr. Grabowski,” he said. “Is his first name Jim or James? He introduced himself as Jim but his business card says James. Which is it?”

It was explained that “Jim” is commonly used to shorten the name “James.”

It was just another small cultural difference that makes the world go around.

Last week, the Independent brought its readers the story of Kartwheels 4 Kids (K4K) and their contribution to the Kidz Express. The story said K4K received $14,200 from Hops for Humanity, which they donated to Kidz Express, but in fact, K4K raised $7,200 themselves.

They later received $7,000 from Hops for Humanity, which made their total donation $14,200 to Kidz Express.

TMJ DISORDER PAIN RELIEF

TMJ disorder can have several causes, from neurological problems to by ear infections, therefore may Jeffrey and T. Boland require several different types of docLicensed Orthodontic Specialist tors. In many cases, however, an orthodontist can provide the necessary care to alleviate TMJ disorder symptoms.

Jaw clenching and teeth grinding are the leading causes of TMJ pain, and they are usually the result of stress.

A properly aligned bite guard is one of the most common solutions, but that will not prevent clenching, which can lead to tension headaches. Night guards are a much better option as they force the jaw joints into their natural, relaxed position. While this does not prevent clenching entirely, it does ease it more efficiently than a bite guard.

Learning from each other

The delegation from Ukraine met with city offi-cials including City Manager Jim Grabowski (front, right), who explained city government, sources of revenue and how to drive economic development and build density. Pictured are (clockwise around table from front left): Oleksii Mushak, Roman Oleksenko, Irina Hobbs, Olena Matuzko, George Palamattam, Roman Oleksenko and Karol Nowak.

There are several orthodontic treatment options available for TMJ. Treatment will depend upon many individual factors such as a patient’s overall health, medical history, tolerance of medications and mouth appliances, and the extent of the disorder. Please call our office today to schedule an appointment. If you have any questions or concerns regarding the condition or care of your appliances, please call! We would rather that you feel comfortable and assured that all is under control. Straighter Smiles Are Our Specialty!

P.S. Professionally made night guards are better for treating TMJ symptoms than over-the- counter drug store versions because they are sturdier and customized to an individual’s bite.

Mayor Morley announces kindergarten presidential election results

In conjunction with the national elections, the Elmhurst Academy kindergarten class wrapped up their presidential race as they selected their new class leaders to guide them into the 2019-20 school year. After a month of campaigns, debates, and learning about elections, and a Meet the Candidate Night; the kindergarten class congratulated Hayden Brown as Class President and Alexis Swift as Class Vice President of the Elmhurst Academy 2019-20 Kindergarten Class.

The students jump-started their

political study by looking deeper into the branches of government, presidential qualifications and the responsibilities one has when holding a leadership position. With this strong foundation, the kindergarteners were motivated to become more informed citizens and mature presidential candidates as they ventured into class elections.

In early October, all kindergarten students participated in the class’s primary elections where they chose a charity to represent, developed a professional platform, and reached out

to the school community with powerful campaigns and advertisements.

Following these elections, Miss Brown and Miss Swift were the only two who remained in the race and went head-to- head in the long-awaited “Kindergarten Debate.” In the debate, each student addressed essential topics such as their ideas for change in the school and ways to foster a thriving classroom environment.

The kindergarten class’s final voting, which took place on Election

Day, concluded with more than 80 votes from students, teachers, and family members. The results were announced on November 6 and a celebration was led by Elmhurst Mayor Steven M. Morley. Mayor Morley’s presence helped reinforce the impact students can continue to make on their future.

Excited and hopeful for her presidential term, Miss Hayden Brown selected the Elmhurst-Animal Care Center as her charity to raise needed

funds for preventative animal care.

The Kindergarten Inaugural Ball was later in the week and celebrated the commencement of the class’s new impactful leaders.

“Teaching civics and learning about democracy is an important aspect of the kindergarten program at Elmhurst Academy; as each student learns how to be a productive and involved citizen and finds their voice to become an agent of change in their community,” school officials said.

As Elmhurst Mayor Steve Morley addresses the kindergarten class on its Election Day, he is joined by Alexis Swift (center), who was SUBMITTED PHOTO Elmhurst Independent elected vice-president and Hayden Brown, elected president.

Holiday crackdown on driving infractions Before hitting the road this Thanksgiving, buckle up and designate a sober driver!

As Illinois residents gear up for one of the busiest travel periods of the year, the Elmhurst Police Department is announcing its plan for a traffic safety enforcement campaign focusing on impaired and unbuckled drivers.

“Holiday traffic brings with it an increased risk for accidents,” said Commander Jim Gandy. “To ensure your family makes it to and from your Thanksgiving feast without incident, make a conscious choice

to buckle up—and plan ahead for a sober ride home.”

According to the Illinois Department of Transportation, 15 motor vehicle crash fatalities occurred in Illinois over the 2018 Thanksgiving holiday weekend.

Five of the 15 deaths were in crashes involving at least one driver who had been drinking.

In an effort to combat these grim statistics, the Elmhurst Police are partnering with the Illinois State Police and local law enforcement agencies across Illinois on a statewide safety enforcement effort.

This high-visibility enforcement began on Friday, Nov. 22 and run through the holiday weekend into the early morning hours of Monday, Dec. 2.

The “Click It or Ticket” and “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” campaigns are funded by federal traffic safety funds administered

by IDOT. The crackdown runs concurrently with a media campaign reminding motorists that impaired driving has “Life or Death” consequences.

When natural disasters strike, I’m backed by one of the industry’s largest catastrophe response teams. We will be ready to help when you need us.

LET’S TALK TODAY.

The more nearsighted a person is, the stronger the prescription he or she needs and the thicker the edge of the lenses will be. This can result in lenses with very thick edges mounted in either metal or plastic frames with thin rims or rimless mountings that detract from the eyewear’s appearance. To counter this effect, various lens materials are available that bend light more than conventional plastics. These “high-index” materials are thinner and lighter. Because less material is needed to make the same correction for nearsightedness, highindex lenses have a more attractive profile to better complement lens frames. Any lens material with an “index of refraction” higher than that of glass or plastic is considered to be high index. When it’s time to make the all-important choice for the best frames to fit your budget and style, look no further than our brilliant team of opticians. SKOWRON EYE CARE’s showroom is stocked with the latest and greatest trends in budget and designer eyewear. From standard, classic looks to contemporary designer frames, our opticians are with you every step of the way. We feature a large selection of quality eyewear including designer frames. Some of our brands include Ray Ban, Fossil, Gucci, Silhouette, Nine West, Juicy Couture, Coach, Maui Jim, and Cole Haan. At Skowron Eye Care, our mission is your vision.

P.S. High-index lenses are a good option for people with high degrees of farsightedness and astigmatism.

DuPage County State’s Attorney Robert B. Berlin and Naperville Chief of Police Robert Marshall announced last week that a male Naperville Central High School student has been charged with a hate crime for allegedly placing a racist ad on Craigslist offering for sale an African American student at the same high school.

The juvenile appeared in Juvenile Court before Judge Anthony Coco.

It is alleged that on Nov. 14, 2019, the juvenile took a photograph of the victim while at school.

It is alleged that the juvenile then posted an ad on Craigslist with the photograph of the victim accompanied with the caption “Slave for sale (Naperville)” followed by an offensive racial slur.

An investigation into the matter conducted by the Naperville Police Department began on Monday, Nov. 18, when they became aware of the incident.

Their investigation ultimately led to the juvenile as the person who allegedly posted the ad.

Slices of life

One great cat – part two The end came quickly, as it often does for the best of beings.

Our cat was old. We knew that.

He’d been with us for 19 years and his bright light was growing dimmer.

His candle was flickering. We all saw it and knew his truly majestic life was coming to an inevitable end.

But it’s never easy – saying goodbye to a family member, to a true and loyal (albeit aloof) friend.

And that was the case in our house.

So we watched him as he slept more and more. And we snuggled someone who doesn’t necessarily self-actualize over snuggling. And we told him he was a good boy. A very good boy. And we loved him the best we could. And we reflected on a life well lived.

He didn’t have the best of starts.

Someone found him nearly freezing in a cardboard box along the side of the road when he was about eight weeks old, just when we were looking for a kitten for our 5-year-old son. Long story short, but we were accepted as his adoptive family and so began the 19-year adventure that his amazing life encompassed.

Our third son was but a glimmer in our eyes when we brought our little survivor kitty home for the first time.

We have pictures of then toddler son “cuddling” with our 2-year-old fluffy Maine Coon look-alike cat. Both put up with each other, but I’m not sure it was an even contract.

He never wore a collar. He was too cool. You’d have to know him to understand, but he was the Fonzie in the world of cats. Both Henry Winkler and Ron Howard would agree.

When he was 10 years old, we brought another rescue cat into the family. He put up with her, but there was never, ever any question regarding who was boss.

He learned to shake hands for a treat. A cat that does dog tricks – that’s how amazing he was. Every day at 4 p.m. (or earlier if he could con me into it) he’d come into the kitchen to shake a paw and get a treat.

His little sister would trickle down behind him and share in his good

fortune.

He was with us for three high school graduations, the birth of one child and one grandchild. He witnessed our kids grow up - quite literally. He spent a generation with us, and I’m sure he had an opinion about every step of the way (although he never expressed it).

A few years ago, we learned the art of growing catnip and the joy it brings to those in the nip. Our cat definitely was in the nip. I’m so glad last summer was a great one for him.

He spent many hours lounging in the garden surrounded by catnip.

Sometimes he’d lie atop the catnip plant and immerse himself in the aroma. Must have felt like heaven. I hope so.

Many times, when cats know they are near their end of life, they hide somewhere in order to be alone. He didn’t do this. He stayed with my oldest son – his boy who was only five when he first met his dear kitty – and passed away peacefully on his bed in the wee hours of the morning.

I’d checked on him at 4:30 a.m. and when my son woke at 7, he was gone, so we have a good idea of when he took his last breath. I’m grateful he didn’t struggle at the end. I’m grateful my son was beside him, providing comfort. I’m grateful I woke up at 4:30 a.m. to pet him one last time.

Mickey, you were loved. You will always be loved. Hope you are enjoying an infinite amount of heavenly catnip. I think you are. No, I know you are. We miss you. RIP.

Sweet thoughts

Four-year-old students from Bethel Learning Center made some U.S. Troops happy recently, as well as some pediatric dentists, when they collected and donated nearly 4,000 pieces of Halloween candy to Military Mamas and REAL Military Penpals: Serving the Red, White and Blue. All students at the center, located at 315 E. St. Charles Rd., helped collect the candy, which weighed in at more than 100 pounds.

The 4-year-olds met the organizations’ representative, Tracy Morser (back left), in Bethel’s parking lot and were all smiles as they helped load the sweets into her car.

Before there was Santa Claus, there was St. Nicholas, known as the “bearer of gifts.” On Dec. 6, many Europeans still celebrate St. Nicholas Day and many Christmas traditions were originally a part of this holiday.

St. Nicholas was a 4th-century Greek saint who was admired for being kind and helping those in need. He was renowned for secretly giving gifts and placing coins and food in the shoes of the needy, which led to the modern-day holiday tradition of the Christmas stocking.

IC Catholic Prep boys basketball team ready to tackle tough schedule Jordan, Gaudio lead list of returning players

By Mike Miazga CORRESPONDENT

CHRIS FOX PHOTO Elmhurst Independent

Dukes win their own tournament

York’s girls basketball team opened the 2019-20 season by winning four straight games and capturing the championship at its eight-team Thanksgiving tournament. The Dukes defeated Conant, Downers Grove South and Niles West to win the event’s Green Division. York then beat Prospect (the White Division winner) 62-44 in Friday’s championship game. Senior Sara Krissinger (No. 22) of the Dukes was named to the event’s all-tournament team. Krissinger and her teammates are pictured during York’s 67-29 victory over Niles West on Nov. 21. Krissinger scored a team-leading 20 points in Friday’s championship game against Prospect.

IC Catholic Prep boys basketball coach TJ Tyrrell is not one to shy away from a challenge.

Tyrrell has ramped up the Knights’ 2019-2020 schedule even more.

“It’s a stacked schedule,” he said.

“It’s the toughest schedule I have ever been a part of at IC. Last year was tough, but this year we extended it to 31 games, which is the maximum you can have by state rules. We added Fenwick in a non-conference game in addition to already playing Benet Academy, which is a top area basketball program. York always is very tough and St. Pat’s runs a good basketball program.

“We’re also in the upper division of the Metro Suburban Conference, which is challenging. We love to embrace the challenge. When you put together a schedule like this, the players and coaches tend to get more up for these types of games. This schedule will prepare us for the playoffs and it will make us a better team overall.”

The Knights went 11-17 overall last year and tied for fourth place in the MSC Blue Division. IC Catholic Prep lost in the regional semifinals to Elgin St. Edward.

Back for IC Catholic Prep are senior returning starters Zach Jordan (5-8, guard) and Dom Gaudio (6-2, guard-forward). Jordan was one of the team’s leading scorers last year at 10 points per game, while Gaudio averaged nine points a contest and now is in his third season with the varsity squad.

Danny Cronin (6-3 senior forward), the quarterback of the IC Catholic Prep football team, will help the team as well. Cronin, profiled this week in the Independent, is a transfer from Fenwick. He came over last year at Christmas time, had to sit out 30 days and then was able to practice with the team. He appeared in five contests last season.

Junior Chauncey Lee (5-11 junior point guard) also returns after averaging 10 points and 3.8 assists per game. He was an all-MSC Blue selection last year. He’s been up on the varsity since the tail-end of his freshman year. Junior Johnny Falduto (5-9 guard) started some games last year, while junior Michael Hilgart (6-1

guard-forward) saw a lot of varsity minutes as a sophomore.

Tyrrell also is counting on contributions from senior Norvice Landon (5-8 guard), who transferred to Proviso West for a year and then returned to IC Catholic Prep. “He should get solid minutes this year,” Tyrrell said.

IC Catholic Prep will be without all-conference performer Ryan Wojtalowicz, who decided to not come out for the team this season, and Justin Hall, who suffered a shoulder injury in football and is lost for the basketball season.

“We still have a lot of returning experience,” said Tyrrell. “Record-wise, we were not very strong last year. Other than the disappointing playoff loss, I’m pleased with the progress we made last year and leading into this year. We bring back Zach and Chauncey, who probably are two of the top guards in the conference. Chauncey’s ability to attack the basket will help us. He is a lot stronger, which will help with his defensive game. He should be more seasoned at point guard and probably is our best shooter in the program. He’s able to get shots off against pressure. He’s a very consistent shooter. We expect big things from both Zach and Chauncey. And Dom Gaudio has been on varsity for three years. He’s very steady and has a very high basketball IQ. He knows what to expect. We are glad to have him back.”

Tyrrell said Cronin’s leadership ability will help the Knights. “Having the leadership from Danny coming from the football field is important,” he said. “He’s a high-intensity guy, athletic and is our biggest guy at 6-3. We are very undersized this year.”

To counter that, Tyrrell said the Knights will put pressure on teams defensively, “and get out in the passing lanes a little more than in year’s past and try to keep teams off-balance. We traditionally have been a man-to-man program. We will continue to focus on that and maybe throw in some different sets in the full-court game to change things up and get our defense to help ignite our offense.”

Tyrrell added the Knights have plenty of shooting depth. “We have good shooters,” he said. “Michael Hilgart’s shot is looking very strong at the start of the season, and his brother, John, who is 6-3 (sophomore forward), is also a good out-

North Dakota-bound Shockey leads the way for York boys basketball team Dukes look to continue recent successes

By Mike Miazga CORRESPONDENT

Just because a lot of the names have changed, don’t count out the York boys basketball team quite yet.

Veteran coach Vince Doran likes the makeup of his team, which is coming off a 2018-2019 season where it went an impressive 29-5 and took second in the West Suburban Conference Silver Division with a 10-2 record.

York returns senior Nate Shockey (6-2 guard), who is a commit to Division I North Dakota University. He av-

eraged 11 points a game last year and will play both the point- and off-guard positions.

“North Dakota is a really good spot for Nate,” said Doran. “He’s a threeyear varsity player who will do a lot of good things this year.”

Junior Jeff Grace (6-2 guard) returns after averaging six points last year. He was York’s sixth man last year. Grace has been on the varsity since he was a freshman.

After Shockey and Grace, the names are quite new. York has a mix of seven seniors, seven juniors and a pair of sophomores on the roster.

Doran is looking for big things from seniors Jake Brandolino (6-1 guard), Milo Mann (6-2 guard) and Tim Glavan (6-5 forward), juniors Lex Harrison (6-3 guard) and Denton Rohde

(6-5 forward) and sophomore Nick Hesch (6-5 forward).

“We have to get these newer players experience,” he said. “We will play a lot of guys early and kind of focus in on a rotation by the time conference rolls around.”

Doran has zero complaints with what he’s seen in practice so far from a commitment standpoint. “I like the way they work,” he said. “They are hard-working. This is a different type of team. Nate is a year better and Jeff is a year better. The other guys need to step up and fill roles. That we know will take a little time to develop, but I am very optimistic and positive about this group as a whole. They are fun kids to work with and are very coachable.”

Doran has high hopes for the Dukes on defense, while perimeter shooting will be a key focus on offense. “We will be pretty good defensively, but we

will need guys to step up and shoot the ball from the perimeter,” he said. “We are capable of doing that, but you never know until games roll round. It will be great to see these guys get opportunities that haven’t had a lot of opportunities at our level previously.”

Leadership from Shockey and Grace will come in handy, the coach added.

“Nate and Jeff having a lot of playing experience certainly helps,” Doran said. “We definitely will rely on them for leadership from that standpoint.”

Doran said the WSC Silver will be challenging, but perhaps a step below the pressure-cooker it was a year ago.

“The conference always is tough,” he said. “The conference will not be as good as last year, but the WSC Silver always is good. It will be good again.

Last year was really up, but this year it’s a step back for most programs.

Oak Park has the most talent returning.

Everybody else is in more of a similar

situation.”

York picked up Fremd for a non-conference game, as well as Naperville North and Oswego East. “Overall, our schedule is very tough,” he said. “You have the non-conference games, plus both tournaments are very tough. It’s a great schedule for us.”

York is in the midst of the Palatine tournament. The Dukes opened earlier in the week against Hersey. “Everybody in that tournament is tough,” Doran said. “Stevenson is a top-five team this year. Cary-Grove is very good from what we’ve heard. They are in our pool. Hersey and Maine West are there. It will be some great competition right away. We’re really happy and excited like always. We’ll see how it goes. It’s going to be fun to get out there and finally get the season going.”

Kroy Running Club shines at York’s Polach ends high school Nike Cross Regional

career at girls state swimming meet

By Mike Miazga CORRESPONDENT

Pictured here at the Nike Cross Regional race in Terre Haute is Kroy Running Club standout Mickey Vreeland, who took 2nd place is the Open Race with a time of 16:26 for the 5k race. There were three heats in the Open Race and his time was the 11th best time out of the combined three races, which included 1,219 runners.

For York senior girls swimmer Amanda Polach, the word bookends has significant meaning.

Polach qualified for the state swimming meet as a freshman — she was part of the York 400 relay team.

Three years later, Polach wrapped up her high school career back in the state pool, this time qualifying in the 200 freestyle. Polach tied for 42nd in the state in the event with a time of 1:58.23.

“Qualifying in the 200 was actually unexpected,” she said. “I was not close to the state cut going into the sectional.

I practiced a lot of pace work before the sectional meet. I was about 4.5 seconds from the cut and then I unexpectedly made it.”

Polach won the sectional title in the 200 with a time of 1:54.94, which also was just under the state cut of 1:55.09.

“The 200 is based off how you do every two laps, every 50 yards,” she said. “I worked on holding those and worked on the actual pace. It helped me in the 200. You kind of know how fast you start and how fast you need to be to come back and finish it. When you are in the pool you have a sense about it.

Practicing a lot helps with pace work.

Then you go to the meet and you know how fast you need to go.”

Polach said the 200 race is kind of like being in no-man’s land on the spectrum of girls high schools swimming races — not quite long enough to

We should be pretty much at full strength,” Tyrrell said.

be put in the 500 category and not short enough to be grouped with the 50. “The 200 is kind of like a middle distance,” she explained. “It’s not something you take slower. It’s more of a sprint for all eight laps. It’s different in that aspect.”

Speaking of the 500, Polach took up that race this season. In fact, she won the West Suburban Conference Silver Division title in the event with a time of 5:12.84.

“The 200 always has been my specialty,” she said. “Before this season I was doing the 200 and the backstroke.

At the last minute coach decided she wanted me to do the 500 and I stuck with it.”

Polach was thrilled to make it back to the state meet. “It’s definitely exciting,” she said. “My goal was to make it one more time before my career ended.

The state meet is my last meet swim-

ming competitively. It’s definitely sad because of the team York has had the last couple of years. I’m close with everybody on the team. To see that all go away is sad.”

Polach, who also has played lacrosse at York, hasn’t pulled the trigger on a college choice yet. She would like to stay around the Midwest if possible and is looking to major in business.

When graduation day hits, Polach said she will miss the overall York High School experience. “I definitely will miss all of it, especially the sports aspect,” she said. “It was something I looked forward to every season, especially swimming. It will be hard to end York, definitely.”

Polach’s teammate, freshman diver Marlena Modica, finished 27th at the state diving meet with a score of 385.75.

Elmhurst resident Gumino turning heads on youth football fields Eagles JV Gold quarterback excels on and off the field

By Mike Miazga CORRESPONDENT

The emails starting coming into the Independent sports department in 2017 when Elmhurst resident Colton Gumino was 10 years old.

One email touted him as the top 10-yearold quarterback in the country. Two years later, another email said a website has Gumino ranked as the No. 1 quarterback in the

In addition to being a standout quarterback for the Elmhurst Eagles youth football program, Bryan Middle School seventh grader Colton Gumino continues to give back to those less fortunate. He and his family donated money ($100 per touchdown he throws) last season to the JJ Watt Foundation in Houston and this year the family is donating $3,000 to Lurie Children’s Hospital in Chicago. Gumino is shown at Minute Maid Park in Houston where he was invited to the JJ Watt Charity Classic softball game.

class of 2025.

Putting aside for a minute the fact that a solid argument can be made that youth sports likely have long ago gone off the deep end when the phrase “top 10-year-old quarterback in the country” is uttered, these emails led the Independent to a recent chat with Gumino, now in seventh grade at Bryan Middle School in Elmhurst.

The takeaways? Gumino is indeed a talented youth quarterback with a very bright future who has put in many hours of work honing his still-developing craft, and, much more importantly, he’s a normal, polite down-to-earth and well-spoken seventh grader, with an equally big heart.

Gumino played this past season for the Elmhurst Eagles JV Gold team (akin to a 12U team). He ended up passing for 1,950 yards and running for more than 1,000 yards on the ground.

He had 33 total touchdowns, 29 of those coming through the air, quite an accomplishment on the youth football circuit where the running game long has been the preferred method of offensive advancement.

He heaved five touchdown passes in a win against Glen Ellyn this season. His personal record is six touchdown passes in a game against Bloomingdale last year. He’s also thrown a 75-yard touchdown pass this season.

Those 2019 passing and rushing yardage numbers are believed to be one of the top performances turned in by a quarterback playing in the Bill George Youth Football League. The website QBHitList.com has Gumino ranked as the No. 9 quarterback in the class of 2025. He’s one of five quarterbacks in the top 10 of that list labeled as a dual-threat (running/passing).

Gumino’s Eagles team went 6-3 this season and made the second round of the playoffs.

“I like playing quarterback because I can see the whole field,” said Gumino. “I like running the offense.”

Gumino’s dad, Chris, said his son started digging in on quarterback development at the age of seven when he started visiting Jeff Christiansen’s Throw it Deep organization based out of the western suburbs. The training academy specializes in year-round quarterback training and development.

Christiansen, a former NFL quarterback, has coached more than 3,000 quarterbacks, including the likes of current San Francisco

Quite an arrival

By Mike Miazga CORRESPONDENT

In his one and only season with the IC Catholic Prep football team, Danny Cronin was a difference-maker.

Cronin, who transferred from Fenwick at Christmas time last year, stepped right in as the Knights’ quarterback and helped them reach the Class 4A state quarterfinals that put a bow of sorts on a tremendous five-year program run that saw it win three state titles in a row, bookended by semifinal and quarterfinal appearances.

Cronin finished the season with 1,629 passing yards and 16 touchdowns. He also ran for 797 yards and scored six rushing touchdowns.

Cronin averaged 7.1 yards per carry and 12.3 yards per completion.

“I’ve always been more of a dual-threat quarterback,” he said.

“When I am at my best is when I am

able to run around a little bit and my receivers are able to get down the field.”

Cronin credited his success this season to a variety of different factors. “My offensive line does a great job blocking for me,” he said. “With Kyle Franklin (IC Catholic Prep standout running back) in the backfield, defenses always are keying on him, which opens alleys for me to do what I do.”

Cronin said hard work throughout the program also helped produce the results it did. “I feel like all the guys were in the weight room in the off-season four days a week lifting hard,” he said. “We work well as a unit. We had really good senior leadership on the line. Guys were holding people accountable. We had great offensive line guys.”

Cronin also lauded IC Catholic Prep’s coaching staff for getting him up to speed in a hurry. “Coming into

49ers signal-caller Jimmy Garoppolo.

“It’s done wonders for him,” Gumino’s dad said. “At this age, he’s throwing pretty decent. Not a lot of people practice to defend against passing at this age. It’s more running. Colton gets dropped off from 7-11 a.m. there. I think including the summer, he’s been there 96 times this year. In the summer it’s 3-4 days a week. He went to a Notre Dame camp this summer. He loves it and he’s put a lot of time into it.”

Gumino, who also will train in Florida at the well-known IMG Academy over Christmas break and also is slated to participate in the All-America Offense-Defense Bowl Series game in January at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami (home of the NFL’s Miami Dolphins), said his time at Throw it Deep has been highly beneficial for him on and off the field. “Jeff teaches you not just about football, but about life,” he said. “He teaches life lessons.”

One life lesson Gumino has down pat at a young age is giving back. Gumino, his dad noted, was ill in 2017 and spent a few nights in the hospital. Gumino asked his dad and Christiansen if there was something they could do to give back to the kids who don’t leave the hospital.

The result is each season the family takes $100 per touchdown Gumino throws and earmarks it for donation. Last season, the donation went to the JJ Watt Foundation (Watt is a standout defensive player for the Houston Texans). This season, a check will go to Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago in the amount of $3,000.

Gumino, who also plays basketball for Bryan and a local travel team (Illinois Speed), would like to play football as long as possible, but he already has his eye on a possible profession when his playing days are over.

“I kind of want to be a quarterbacks coach,” he said. “If kids throw the ball the wrong way, I want to teach them to throw it the right way.”

Gumino said he loves playing football in the Elmhurst Eagles organization. “I love my teammates,” he said. “We all go to the same school. They are good guys.”

Gumino admits his early success in the sport was not expected. “I am very surprised,” he said. “I started off as a receiver when I first started playing football. I went to Jeff and I wasn’t that good. I have come a long way and now here I am.”

Elmhurst resident Colton Gumino threw for more than 1,900 yards and ran for more than 1,000 more this season as a member of the Elmhurst Eagles JV Gold team.

In his only season with the IC Catholic Prep football team, Danny Cronin makes a difference

the program the coaches helped me navigate through all of it,” he said.

“I learned to deal with adversity.

Coach (Tony) Navigato (IC offensive coordinator) was huge. We have great coaches here that helped the learning process go a lot smoother during the summer and you see the result of it. They did a great job of getting me ready, for sure. They got me films from last year and helped me get really comfortable with the playbook and the system. There always were chalk talks. They were constantly teaching me. My teammates also were good filling in the gaps. Tommy Ryan did a real good job helping me learn the system and he is a great wide receiver for us.”

Cronin is happy to be at IC Catholic Prep for his senior year. “It’s my hometown school and my hometown team,” he said. “I went to IC grade school. I’ve been a Knight my whole life. It was natural for me to

come here and come home. As soon as I got with the guys it was football and it didn’t feel any different. I already knew a lot of them. I played on basketball teams with Tommy Ryan. I knew the majority of the kids here that were not on the football team, being they were local kids I hung out with a lot.”

Cronin, who is on the IC Catholic Prep basketball team and plans to do either track or baseball in the spring, said he loved the atmosphere on the football team, reiterating what many players have said over the last few years. “It’s a clichéd term that gets thrown around a lot, but it really is a brotherhood around here,” he said. “These guys have your back.

I also like the fact I get challenged academically at IC every day. All phases of this school have been great.”

As for the future, Cronin, who enjoys watching NFL quarterbacks

Drew Brees and Lamar Jackson, would like to play football at the next level. He said he’s received interest from some Ivy League schools, some Division I preferred walk-on interest and five offers, primarily from Division II schools.

“I’m still feeling things out,” he said. “I’m thinking of studying prelaw or business. Somewhere on that track.”

Looking at the past year or so, Cronin is thrilled with the decision he made. “The experience has been fantastic this year,” he said. “From Day 1, the players and coaches have helped me. The coaches gave me films and the playbook and I was able to learn pretty quickly. Coach Navigato, coach (Matt) Bowen and (head) coach (Bill) Krefft were always in my ear helping me learn.

I’m a little bit of a football geek, so I love watching film and going over things. I love it. It’s been awesome.”

Fall Capstone Art Exhibition on display through Dec. 12 Four senior art majors to present variety of media, themes

Elmhurst College art majors graduating this fall will explore timely societal themes in thought-provoking, innovative ways during the College art department’s 52nd Annual Fall Capstone Art Exhibition.

Four senior art majors are showcasing their work in the exhibition, which begins on Nov. 23 and runs through Dec. 12 in the Barbara A. Kieft Accelerator ArtSpace. The culminating event for every graduating art major, the capstone exhibition requires students to create a body of work in their area of concentration (i.e. painting, sculpture, digital art, graphic design, or printmaking), then plan the exhibition and design the promotional materials for it.

Juan Mora, a graphic design major and a first-generation college student from Chicago, has created an organization that spreads awareness about the immigration situation at the U.S. southern border and dispels myths about immigrants. Mora’s project uses a mix

of digital and print media to create posters, a map infographic of the border, a shirt and a website to create materials for the organization.

Nicole Paglia, a photography major from Rolling Meadows, digitally and physically manipulated 10 photographs to depict her friends’ biggest fears. Paglia has placed first or second in some of Elmhurst College’s other art exhibitions, and is a 2016 Golden Apple Scholar.

Ian Stong, a printmaking and graphic design major from Mesa, Ariz., says his artwork tries “to shed light on the issues humanity is facing, and the moral implications.” Influenced by his love of punk rock, his work features bold imagery and bright color combinations, and involves some form or combination of handmade printing techniques.

Nova Uriostegui, a graphic design major from Morton Grove, created five deity char-

acter portraits and the branding for a false religion. She created advertisements, an overall brand style sheet with logo(s), a religious textbook cover, business cards and a pamphlet for each deity, along with instructions on how to

worship each one and what each deity governs.

The Barbara A. Kieft Accelerator ArtSpace, 200 W. Park Ave., on the campus of Elmhurst College, is open on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays from 12 noon to 4 p.m.

Lizzadro Museum presents ‘Embodying Enlightenment’ Buddhism has influenced Asian Culture and art over the past 2500 years. Introduced to China from India, Buddhism absorbed indigenous beliefs and incorporated a wide range of imagery into its art.

On Saturday, Dec. 7 at 2 p.m., Lizzadro Museum of Lapidary Art, now in its new location at 1220 Kensington Road in Oak Brook, is offering a 60-minute program “Embodying Enlightenment: Appreciating Buddhist Art through Jade Carvings.”

Presented by Dr. Tongyun Yin, Asian Art Curator, the lecture incorporates the Museum’s jade carvings to illustrate the basic creeds and iconography of Buddhism to discuss the unique characteristics of Buddhist art in China. Gallery-led tour after the lecture.

Admission is $8 per person for non-members, Museum members free.
