Villa Park skatepark, Jiminez featured in documentary ‘Concrete Dreams’ to be released online

Little Cabin Films and Chicago Filmmakers has announced the arrival of Concrete Dreams, a three-part documentary web-series about public skateparks, written and directed

by Nick Nummerdor.

Concrete Dreams is a 3-part documentary series that follows suburban super mom Paulina Jimenez, who dreamed of funding a free public skatepark in her hometown of Villa Park. The series follows the project’s struggles and triumphs over a decade from concept to completion, including its impact on the local community.

With zero experience in municipal activism, Paulina armed herself with the Tony Hawk Public Skatepark Development Guide and fervently rallied local skateboarders, businesses, and residents to support fundraising efforts for a new community skatepark.

This series is in support of free public skateparks. More than just public spaces, skateparks are concrete wonderlands that showcase the grace, agility, and athleticism of urban youth; who are rarely given opportunities for positive self-expression, according to experts.

Most parents and community leaders are advocating on behalf of the skaters, witnessing their dedication, discipline, creativity, while working to create spaces for them to thrive.

The series runs 52 minutes and features Villa Park community planning, Evergreen Skateparks of Portland, Ore., and Stevie “Dread” Snyder of Uprise Skateshop Chicago.

The film is the recipient of the 2017

Digital Media Production Fund Grant, a project of Voqal administered by Chicago Filmmakers.

All three episodes of the film, can be viewed at ConcreteDreams.tv on youtube or vimeo.

About the filmmaker Nick Nummerdor is an independent filmmaker based in Chicago, whose work has been featured on

the ABC Morning News, Netflix, Amazon Prime, WBEZ, Wisconsin Public Television, Reel Chicago, and even a few German RV magazines.

He is the co-founder of Little Cabin Films, a production company he started in 2009 with his business associate Andrew J. Morgan. He directs, produces, edits, shoots, and records sound on a variety of com-

cacy. Youth playgrounds and sports fields are widely accepted as healthy uses for public land; but what about spaces for the growing population of skate and BMX enthusiasts? According to experts, skateparks are shown to fight obesity while building community and growing confidence. This trio of short films focuses on skateparks as “an emerging fulcrum of local activism.”

mercials, documentaries, and spots.

He also is a co-founder of Chicago skateboard company Pardon My Thrashing.

Last week, the Villa Park Independent shared the story of a local area resident, who is a member of the Villa Park VFW Post #2801, finding a medal among his late father’s belongings that had been given to a U.S. Army First Lieutenant pilot named Frank Rush, who served during WWII. Wally Luszczyk was not even sure how his father came to own the medal, so he went on a search. Thanks to Jeff Marchese, a news reporter at Channel 7, Luszczyk was able to locate Rush’s daughter Maureen Rush Brickman, who is now living in Arizona. As luck would have it, Maureen was in the Chicago area over the Thanksgiving weekend to attend a wedding and made the time to come out to Villa Park to accept her father’s long-lost medal.

Luszczyk arranged for a Color Guard and a brief ceremony to be held – followed by cake and coffee, of course – to honor First Lieutenant Frank Rush and to present the medal to his daughter Maureen. The VFW also presented her with a flag, which was not draped over Rush’s coffin when he passed due to the loss of his military credentials.

Maureen was a bit shy about the publicity, saying she “didn’t really deserve it.” “However,” Luszczyk pointed out, “your Dad does.”

8 films you didn’t know were filmed in Illinois

Editor’s note: The weekly Illinois Bicentennial series is brought to you by the Illinois Associated Press Media Editors and Illinois Press Association. More than 20 newspapers are creating stories about the state’s history, places and key moments in advance of the Bicentennial on Dec. 3, 2018. Stories published up to this date can be found at 200illinois.com.

By Dann Gire

FILM CRITIC OF THE (ARLINGTON HEIGHTS) DAILY HERALD

Maybe Illinois has produced so many cool movies because it offers such a vastly diverse spectrum of locations to tell highly visual stories.

Or maybe our state has pumped out impressive pictures because the Illinois Film Office and Chicago Film Office cut through red tape for appreciative filmmakers.

Or, maybe Illinois seals those deals with its attractive 30-percent tax credit on film production costs.

(Being the only state in the union with a diversity provision as part of its tax credits can’t hurt.)

Many local scenes turn up in iconic Illinois-filmed motion pictures such as “The Blues Brothers,” “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off,” “Home Alone,” “The Breakfast Club” and “The Fugitive.” Here are eight others filmed at locations across the state that are worth a special mention, too.

1. “Dig Two Graves” — Hunter Adams’ horror tale hails from the comic book tradition of “Tales from the Crypt,” but it stands on its own as a crisply edited, surprising display of craftsmanship on a budget. Adams fell in love with the rich, diverse and truly creepy locations in several counties at the state’s southern tip, where he whisks us into a rural nightmare of Kubrickian symmetry.

In “The Dark Knight,” Christian Bale stars as Bruce Wayne, who has a penthouse overlooking the twin buildings of Chicago’s Marina City.

Woodstock’s Town Square doubles as Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, for Bill Murray, Andie MacDowell and Chris Elliot in the 1993 movie “Groundhog Day.” Woodstock later was named one of “The 5 Top Cities You’ll Recognize from the Movies” in a Yahoo travel series.

in Elgin and the Central Elementary School in Wilmette. A key grocery scene (with Matt Damon) was filmed in downtown Western Springs. Even Waukegan got into the act, with its Amstutz Expressway acting the role of Chicago’s Dan Ryan Expressway.

5. “The Fury” — Much of Brian De Palma’s stylistically sleazy 1978 horror movie was shot in Chicago. It used the same room from Chicago’s now-extinct Plymouth Hotel that would later be used in 1980’s “The Blues Brothers.” But the film’s best claim to fame would be the deadly carnival ride filmed in the once-immensely popular Old Chicago indoor amusement park in Bolingbrook.

6. “The Untouchables” — Brian De Palma returned to the Windy City to shoot a 1987 version of the popular TV series starring Robert Stack and created one of the two best films to showcase the city of Chicago as an essential presence on the silver screen.

The highlight? The slow-motion gunfight on the steps at Union Station, a breathlessly constructed homage to the famous Odessa Steps Sequence from Sergei Eisenstein’s seminal 1926 silent Russian masterpiece “Battleship Potemkin.”

7. “The Dark Knight” — The second film to showcase the city of Chicago as an essential presence on the silver screen. Except now, the dark and gritty Windy City plays the role of the even darker and grittier Gotham City in Christopher Nolan’s 2008 Batman movie. The highlight?

A carefully planned explosive flip of an 18-wheeler upside down in the middle of LaSalle Street. No digital effects needed.

8. “Lucas” — This 1986 high school coming-of-age drama shot several scenes in Glen Ellyn (including Glenbard West High School, Lake Ellyn Park and The Glen Theatre) plus Highland Park High School and, most notably, Arlington High School in Arlington Heights, which had been closed before being transformed into the Christian Liberty Academy. The movie gave Glen Ellyn actor Tom Hodges his first speaking role.

Vienna and Ferne Clyffe State Park near Goreville.

2. “Munger Road” — St. Charles writer/director Nicholas Smith and a crew of young filmmakers from Chicago’s Columbia College shot this atmospheric “suburban legend” horror tale over 16 nights in Bartlett, St. Charles, Elburn, Geneva and Sugar Grove. Smith was 26 at the time. Set during St. Charles’ annual Scarecrow Festival, the story in-

volves an escaped serial killer and two teen couples stuck over a set of railroad tracks allegedly haunted by the ghosts of children killed in a fiery crash.

They are making the rounds on busy roadways in cities and towns across the country. Stop signs are just so last millennium. The newest trend in traffic is the roundabout and it has me terrified.

The name sounds so friendly, so casual: roundabout. I’ll come to your house roundabout 6-ish. Let’s head roundabout to the beach tomorrow.

We walked roundabout the city for most of the afternoon. The word roundabout seems as amicable as an old friend and as relaxed as a prewashed pair of jeans.

It’s anything but. A roundabout is fraught with hostile possibilities, uncertainty and confusion.

Do I veer right or left? Do I have the right of way? Should I stop or go? What if I make a wrong turn and end up someplace I don’t want to be?

What if I enter the roundabout and can’t figure out how to get off? I’ll continue to drive in circles forever.

I’d be on a never-ending merry-goround but in real life in real time.

From my often confused perspective there is entirely too much unknown and undefined about the roundabout.

Plus (there is no way to say this without sounding uncomplimentary) many drivers are slightly to significantly challenged when it comes to the rules of the road. They don’t heed the basics. For instance, the slow lane is for vehicles traveling at slower speeds. The passing lane is for passing not for driving alongside another vehicle for miles and miles engaging in what is known as a “squeeze play” to drivers wanting to pass. When you travel for long distances on the freeway or highway, it is beneficial to use a new form of technology known as cruise control. Riding your brakes does not benefit anyone. When you come to a four-way stop you have to keep track of the cars that were there before you so you know when it is your turn because it is impolite to jump ahead in line.

If four-way stops are ripe for motorist dysfunction and aggression, a roundabout is that on steroids. A four-way stop at least demands that you stop – if you want to remain legal. A roundabout gives you permission to continue on your merry way; just try not to hit any of the other cars that are also going along on their merry ways. Good luck with that.

Some (many, most) drivers are aggressive already; roundabouts give them an excuse to speed up and dive

JILL PERTLER Contributer

bomb their way in front of you, leaving you to slam on your brakes in order to avoid collision causing undue anxiety that distracts you and makes you miss your roundabout exit and you end up lost in some little town somewhere because the roundabout took you right instead of your intended left.

Reader disappointed in ‘unfair reporting’

I am a resident of Addison and recently grabbed a copy of the Addison Independent. I was very disappointed to see the unfair reporting. On your recent issue, the front cover shows the pictures of four African American men charged with robbery. And to be honest, it’s such a petty crime.

Someone’s purse and a cell phone.

I’ve been living in the city for the past four years, until this summer.

Really this is not a big deal. At least, not important enough to be on the front page. Now, page 6, you have a story of a Caucasian male who was charged with a hate crime. He was charged with yelling racial slurs and even threatening with a knife! Tell me why this doesn’t get front page news, yet the petty crime of four African American men does.

Wildfire Ultimate Frisbee coming to Elmhurst College Last week, Chicago Wildfire Ultimate Frisbee announced a new partnership with Elmhurst College. The Wildfire will play six home games at Elmhurst College’s Langhorst Field for the 2019 season.

Langhorst Field will be the fourth different home stadium for the Wildfire since the team’s inception in 2013, but this latest move by the franchise will help set the stage for a multi-year contract with the college.

“We want to thank everyone at North Central College and the Naperville community as a whole for hosting us last year,” said CJ O’Brien, managing partner for the Wildfire. “We saw an opportunity this year to move back closer to the

city, and establish a long-term home that’s in line with our vision for growing the team, and we couldn’t be more excited to partner with the college and the community.”

The field will also be the venue for the Wildfire summer youth camp scheduled to take place in June 2019.

With a capacity of 1,000, Langhorst Field is smaller than last year’s Benedetti-Wehrli Stadium at North Central College, which seats 5,500. Fans will have the opportunity to be closer to the field and rally behind a more focused cheering section.

“It’s going to provide our fans with a much more intimate setting, which will enhance the game day to

our highest level yet,” O’Brien said. munity, and that all starts with the is set to be announced in February, “We want to create lasting impres- environment in our home stadium.” and will include 12 total games on sions with our fans and the comThe Wildfire’s full 2019 schedule weekends between April and July.

Tarell Regans has been named as Willowbrook’s November recipient of 88’s Best recognition for his highly improved performance. A senior, Regans was recognized during the Nov. 12 District 88 Board of Education meeting.

The transition to high school can be a challenge for any ninth-grade student. Add a move to a new town, as well as starting at a new school, and it can make the experience even more difficult. This is what Regans faced when he came to Willowbrook, and he speaks honestly about his struggles as he began his freshman year. With the help and support of teachers, friends and family members, Regans improved his study habits and developed a love of school.

At the start of his high school career, Regans was enrolled in support and resource courses for reading and math, but has since transitioned to become a self-directed learner who seeks help and support independently, while assisting other students in their success. Regans’ journey has included becoming involved in a multitude of events and activities such as joining the Boys Track Team and being named as Class President.

He also was recognized with the Human Relations Award for his contributions to others and is a member of the Honor Roll.

“I am happy someone sees the amazing young man Regans has become during the past couple of years,” said Carrie Skala, math teacher. “I had Regans when he was a sophomore in Geometry, and he is one of my most memorable students.

He is always polite, engaged in class and ready to tackle any task placed in front of him. He is a positive addition to every classroom and is willing to put the effort into understanding the subject. Although I have not taught Regans since he was a sophomore, he still says hello every single time he sees me in the hallway. When he graduates this spring, I know his presence will be missed in this building.”

English teacher Cris Calandra agreed.

“One of the biggest disappointments for me as a teacher was when I looked at my roster and did not see Regan’s name listed,” Calandra said. “As a sophomore, Regans was one of the kindest students I have ever taught. When the class would start to get a little loud or talkative, Regans would always speak up and ask everyone to quiet down. He has an inherent desire to learn and wants others around him to do well. He is always trying to be better in every way. However, my favorite memory happened one day when I was using a bunch of markers that were linked together by the caps as a pointer for the lecture I was giving. The problem was, the markers kept falling apart.

Regans then announced, ‘You need a pointer – I’ve got you!’ He then went on Amazon and ordered one. A few minutes later he announced to the class, ‘I ordered you a pointer. It’s arriving in two days!’ Two days later I got my pointer, and it now sits on my

desk as a reminder there are students who care for and love us just as much as we care for and love them.

“Regans is a student destined for greatness, and he is the perfect recipient for this honor.”

Counselor Scott Forcash said Regans’ internal drive to better himself is what makes him stand out.

“Regans started out his first semester at Willowbrook and struggled with staying motivated,” he said. “He has been able to bring his cumulative GPA up by improving his study habits and recently earned a 1270 on his SAT, which ranks him among the top 88 percent of students nationally.

Although he is unsure of his future career plans, he is interested in exploring careers such as a physician assistant, a zoologist or a high school counselor.

“Regans attributes his change in attitude and motivation toward high school to his teachers. I’ve really enjoyed watching Regans mature through the years and step into a leadership role among his peers. I applaud his change in work ethic, positive attitude toward school and drive to succeed after high school.”

Planning to study biology to consider a career as a veterinarian, Regans intends to continue his education at The University of Illinois at Chicago, Arizona State University or Northern Illinois University.

CHILDREN IN THE DIGITAL AGE

333272

While it is quite common for young children to suck their thumbs, fingers, or by a pacifier to helpT. reduce stress, parJeffrey Boland entsLicensed should Orthodontic be careful notSpecialist to let their children’s habit go on too long. According to one study, children who sucked on a thumb, finger, or pacifier until they reached the age of two or three years of age were twice as likely to develop an improper bite (malocclusion) as babies who gave up the habit in their first year. Moreover, the risk of dental problems tripled among children who continued their finger- and thumb-sucking habits past four years of age. If you need help breaking your child’s sucking habit, the orthodontist can help.

With gentle supervision, it is normally very easy to help a child quit the habit before any damage is done. However, persistent thumb or finger sucking beyond a certain age can cause significant tooth misalignment or jaw deformation. To schedule a consultation, please call our office. 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. Thumb-sucking puts pressure on the sides of the upper jaw and the soft tissue on the roof of the mouth (palate).

As a result, the upper jaw can narrow, which can lead to malocclusion.

Pechanio and 199 other veterans will be honored at the Illinois Bicentennial Office’s 200th Birthday Celebration to be held at Chicago’s Navy Pier on Monday, Dec. 3.

“I am honored to represent the veterans of Elmhurst,” Pechanio said.

“I have only one regret: I wish that I knew of [my] nomination so that I would’ve been able to offer other deserving Elmhurst veterans as nominees. I am sure that Elmhurst could’ve had multiple honorees, like some of the communities. That being said, I will continue to do my best to be a credit to all who have served from Illinois and come home to make significant contributions. “‘Always Remember’ those who served but didn’t come home, and those who did who are in need of our understanding and support.”

• Pechanio

(Continued from page 12

Chair of the City of Elmhurst’s Veterans Memorial Commission since its inception prior to the Elmhurst Veterans Memorial dedication in Wilder Park on May 31, 1993, and he has co-chaired Elmhurst’s Memorial Day Parade Committee since 1997.

“I can’t think of anyone more deserving of this recognition than Ralph,” stated John R. Quigley, ECCI President and CEO, who serves as Pechanio’s Memorial Day Parade Committee Co-Chair. “His contributions to our community in general and to our veterans in particular cannot be overstated.”

Representing more than 50 counties across the state, the 200 honorees are resident of Illinois who have been honorably discharged from a branch of the military. They were evaluated based on their achievements and contributions to their given communities.

More about Ralph Pechanio…

A veteran of the United States Army (196567), Pechanio played an integral role as Veterans Memorial Fundraising Chairman during his tenure as 1992 ECCI Board Chair (then President).

An ECCI Civic Hall of Fame 2015 inductee, Pechanio has served the business and civic communities since his retirement from community banking in 1993. He is completing his third straight one-year appointed term as Treasurer for the Elmhurst Chamber Board of Director’s Executive Committee. In his role as Treasurer, he also serves as Chair of the Ways and Means Committee.

His $100,000 gift to Elmhurst College to endow the Ralph P. Pechanio Student Internship Fund as part of the ECCI’s Centennial Celebration Capital Campaign earned him recognition as the Elmhurst Chamber’s 2017

Chairman’s Awardee.

Pechanio has served three Board terms as an elected Director (1980-82, 1987-89 and 199092), including tenures as 1992 Chair and as Treasurer in 1981 and 1990.

A green-coated Chamber Ambassador since 1992, Pechanio is a two-time recipient of the Ambassador of the Year award (2011 and 1993).

Pechanio’s local affiliations include the Kiwanis Club of Elmhurst and Elmhurst American Legion THB Post 187. His honors include

the Elmhurst Jaycees’ Distinguished Service Award (2001), ECCI’s Good Works Award (2009) and the Bluejay Backers’ Community Service Award (2014).

His community banking career included 23 years at the former Elmhurst Federal Savings Bank (1970-93) as a Controller, Vice President and Treasurer, and then Chief Financial Officer. He graduated from DePaul University in 1964 with a major in accounting. Pechanio and his wife, Georgette, have resided in Elmhurst since their marriage in 1969.

IC Catholic Prep football team wins third state title in a row

By Mike Miazga CORRESPONDENT

Title defended.

Again.

The IC Catholic Prep football team made it three state championships in a row this past weekend thanks to a 31-21 win over Kankakee Bishop McNamara in the Class 4A title game at Memorial Stadium in Champaign.

The Knights have now won five football state championships, all coming since 2002. IC Catholic Prep has won three Class 3A titles, one Class 2A crown and now one Class 4A title.

IC Catholic Prep finished the year a perfect 14-0 (the second time in three seasons it has done that) and ran its regular-season winning streak to 26 games in a row and its playoff winning streak to 15 games in a row.

During the last three seasons, IC Catholic Prep is the only team in the

state of Illinois to win three state titles in a row and one of two teams to make the state-title game in all of those three years (Wilmette Loyola Academy is the other in Class 8A).

Forreston won Class 1A titles in 2018 and 2016.

Gibson City-Melvin-Sibley won state 2A titles in 2018 and 2017, Rochester won Class 4A titles in 2016 and 2017 and Crystal Lake Prairie Ridge won Class 6A titles in 2016 and 2017, but no team in the state can match IC Catholic Prep’s three-year title run (2016-2018).

In the win against Bishop McNamara, IC Catholic Prep racked up 383 rushing yards in the game on 55 carries and attempted only eight passes in the contest.

Running back Kyle Franklin ran 22 times for 227 yards and scored two touchdowns. Quarterback Khalil Saunders ran 25 times for 117 yards

and a score, while Kevin Cooke ran eight times for 39 yards and one touchdown. Ryan Malek caught two passes for eight yards.

IC Catholic Prep got on the board first when Franklin scored on an 11yard run with 7:47 left in the first quarter. Tom Sloan’s extra point made it 7-0.

McNamara tied the game on a 42yard touchdown pass with 9:58 to play in the first half.

A Saunders 18-yard run and Sloan PAT made it 14-7 IC Catholic Prep with 8:50 to play in the half. McNamara responded with a 1-yard scoring run with 2:03 left to play in the first half that tied the game at 1414.

Cooke scored on a 1-yard run with 7:34 to play in the third to put IC Catholic Prep up 21-14. Sloan added a 20-yard field goal with 3:57 to play in the third that gave the Knights a

24-14 lead.

Another 1-yard touchdown run for McNamara cut the lead to 24-21 with 7:14 left in the fourth quarter.

Franklin gave the Knights some breathing room with a 60-yard touchdown run with 6:00 to play for a 3121 advantage.

Bishop McNamara (12-2) had 265 total yards in the game. The Fightin’ Irish’s two losses this season came to IC Catholic Prep.

On the defensive side of the ball, Khali Saunders led the Knights with eight tackles. Cam Hood, Khalil Saunders, Ricky Mysliwiec and Cooke each had five tackles. Mysliwiec had 1.5 tackles for loss, while Kevin Akins had one tackle for loss and one quarterback sack. Max Cook had 0.5 tackles for loss, while Khali Saunders had an interception.

IC Catholic Prep had 10 possessions in the game and scored on five

of them, had two turnovers, turned the ball over on downs once, punted once and ended the game.

Bishop McNamara had 10 possessions as well and scored on three of them, punted twice, turned the ball over on downs three times, had one turnover and ended the first half with the ball.

This is the third year in a row the Knights have had a running back rush for more than 200 yards in the state title game. Franklin joins Jordan Rowell (2016) and Lazerick Eatman (2017) in that elite group.

Since losing to Bishop McNamara twice in the 2015 season, including in the Class 3A state semifinals, the Knights have defeated the Kankakee school four times in a row by a combined score of 129-48. McNamara now is in the same conference as IC Catholic Prep. The two teams will square off again in 2019.

Addison Trail girls basketball team split first four games Blazers defeat Fenton and Elgin

By Mike Miazga CORRESPONDENT

The Addison Trail girls basketball team split a set of four games to start the season.

The Blazers lost their opener 3529 to Chicago DePaul Prep and then defeated Fenton 54-46 in the Fenton-Addison Trail tournament. The Blazers also lost to West Suburban

Conference Gold Division foe Leyden 52-42 before coming back to down Elgin 55-42 in tournament play.

“We didn’t hit free throws and we didn’t hit some shots,” said Addison Trail coach Rob Schader. “We played alright defense. Our pressure was pretty good. Right now, we’re not clicking on all cylinders just yet.”

Schader did see many bright spots on the individual front, including strong play from the likes of Serena

Willowbrook girls basketball team wins three games in own tournament

By Mike Miazga, CORRESPONDENT The Willowbrook girls basketball team continued its strong start to the season by winning three games at the 23rd Willowbrook Lady Warrior Thanksgiving Invite.

Willowbrook opened the tournament with a 76-12 win over West Chicago. Willowbrook led 33-3 after the first quarter and 54-5 at halftime. The Warriors held West Chicago to seven second-half points.

The Warriors then downed East Aurora by a 42-41 count. The Warriors led 11-9 after the first quarter but East Aurora came back and tied the game at 18-18 heading into halftime. The game remained tied at 27-27 heading into the fourth quarter.

Sophomore forward Stephanie Dasbach led the Warriors with 17 points. K’ahlia Herron and sophomore Grace Tumilty each added seven points.

The Warriors moved to 3-0 in the tournament with a 55-46 win over Plainfield Central. Willowbrook then lost its final two games in the tournament to Stevenson (50-45) and Lockport (50-48).

In the Lockport loss, Katelyn McCann finished with 25 points.

Dasbach was named to the all-tournament first team, while Tumilty earned a spot on the second team.

Stevenson won the tournament and Lockport finished second.

Willowbrook opened the season with a 60-25 win against Glenbard North.

The Warriors were 4-2 overall heading into action this week against Proviso East (West Suburban Conference Gold Division game), York and conference foe Leyden (Saturday at 2:30 p.m. at Leyden).

Addison Trail boys basketball The Addison Trail boys basketball team went 3-0 in winning the recent Elmwood Park tournament to kick off the 2018-2019 season.

The Blazers defeated Chicago Foreman 65-50 in the opener and downed Northtown Academy 64-29 before defeating host Elmwood Park 59-42. Addison Trail then scored a 49-46 victory over Leyden, which was the first-place team from the nearby Ridgewood tournament.

It is the fifth year in a row the Blazers have won the Elmwood Park tournament.

Addison Trail played Chicago Lane in a non-conference game earlier this week and will host Willowbrook in the first of two District 88 regular-season battles on Friday. It’s the West Suburban Conference Gold Division opener for both teams.

Willowbrook boys basketball The Willowbrook boys basketball team went 3-1 at the seasonopening St. Charles East tournament.

The Warriors were 76-42 winners against East Aurora and also scored an 83-74 win over Plainfield North before defeating St. Joseph 70-60 to advance to the championship game where it lost to St. Charles East 77-60.

In the St. Joe’s win, Everett Stubblefield had 27 points, eight rebounds and four assists. Matas Masys scored 14 points, while Scotty Tumilty had 10 points. Jack Hines finished with nine points, six rebounds and four assists.

Tumiltys and Rizzo honored Willowbrook football players Scotty Tumilty and Sam Tumilty, and boys soccer player David Rizzo all earned postseason honors recently.

Scotty Tumilty was named to the Illinois High School Football Coaches Association Class 7A all-state team, while Tumilty and his brother earned Champaign News-Gazette all-state special-mention accolades. The News-Gazette is one of the last Illinois media outlets to publish true all-state teams that encompass players from throughout Illinois.

Rizzo recently was named to the Illinois Soccer Coaches Association all-sectional honorable-mention team and received his award at the 48th Annual Boys Soccer Honors Banquet in Elmhurst.

Gilliam (senior post player), Karime Martinez (senior), Brenda Berumen (senior), Angelina Carreros (senior), Klaudia Kulikowski (junior) and Joanna Garay (senior). The Blazers also welcomed back senior Natalie Obrzut, who had been slowed by a knee injury suffered as a sophomore.

“She battled last year with her knee.

It’s great to have Natalie back,” said Schader.

Other key contributors include junior Demi Koulogeorgas, sophomore Mia Johnson and freshman Quiana Birmingham.

“Demi is figuring it out and doing a nice job,” said Schader. “Mia is getting used to the speed of the varsity game and has done a great job

and Quiana gets better every game.

Right now, we’re playing around 10 kids, which is very helpful because we try to play fast-paced.”

Schader noted Addison Trail was 18 of 34 from the free-throw line in one game and 15 of 26 in another.

“We’re putting in the extra time with our shooting,” he said. “We’re also turning the ball over too much. We had 25 against Elgin, 30-something against Leyden and had 45 against Fenton. So if you add that up we’re turning the ball over every third time down the court right now. We have to make better decisions. All of this will happen. We started off a little slow. If we can start hitting some shots and take care of the basketball

better, we have a chance to do something special. We have six or seven kids coming back that played a lot.

We will figure it out. We have good balance with our scoring so teams can’t focus on one kid.”

Addison Trail was slated to play Maine East and Morton (WSC Gold game) earlier in the week. The Blazers square off against Hinsdale South Saturday in another conference game.

“We have a lot of three-game weeks this year,” said Schader.

“We’ve added teams such as Maine East, DePaul Prep and IC Catholic Prep to the schedule. We’ll have 29 regular-season games this year.

Playing these games will help us.”

Fenton girls basketball team starts season with pair of wins Bison tie school record for most 3-pointers made in a game

By Mike Miazga CORRESPONDENT

The Fenton girls basketball team made a little history during its season-opening quartet of games in the Addison Trail-Fenton tournament.

In the Bison’s 71-25 win over Elgin to close out the tournament, Fenton tied a school record for most 3-pointers made in a game with 15.

Earlier in the tournament, the Bison defeated Chicago Curie 62-24 and lost to Addison Trail 56-46 and Chicago Marshall 95-27.

Fenton is coming off a 2017-2018 campaign where it went 9-16 overall and 4-8 in Metro Suburban Conference Blue Division action.

Back for Fenton this season are seniors Ashley Lira, Isa Lozada (point/ wing), Mackenzie Miller (point/ wing), Julia Kaspari (wing) and juniors Ashley Milano (wing) and Joni Lucas. Lozada is the team’s returning leading scorer at 5.0 points per game

last year. Kaspari and Milano each averaged 4.5 points, while Lira and Lucas each averaged 3.5 points and Miller averaged 3.2 points to go with 4.0 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.1 steals.

Lira also averaged 4.8 rebounds and 2.8 steals per game. Lozada averaged 2.4 rebounds and 1.6 steals. Kaspari averaged 1.6 rebounds, while Milano averaged 2.2 rebounds and 1.3 steals per game. Lucas averaged 2.3 rebounds.

Lira is a returning all-MSC selection (Blue Division last year; Fenton now plays in the Red Division).

Key newcomers to the team include sophomores Lisette Rodriguez (post), Madison Spencer (wing) and Daisy Cossio (wing), along with freshmen Hailey Miller (point) and Sophia Haska (post).

Fenton coach Dave Mello is pleased with the progress the team has made in the second year of running his system. “The offense is coming along great,” he said. “In year two of our system, the girls really are used to the pace that we want to play. We just need to start having some shots fall from the 3-point line during games.

Our defense is fast. We are doing a good job with our traps, but we still need to get better at protecting the weak side.”

Mello noted Fenton’s greatest weapon on the floor is the system it plays. “Our biggest strength is our system—playing at the pace we do and using all 19 girls in waves of five helps to really neutralize any major advantages our opponents may have,” he said.

Mello added his team is not lacking in the effort department, by a long shot. “I like the effort they are putting in,” he said. “We are asking a lot of this team. We have had a good amount of morning practices. We are just about finished with a running program we implemented this year, we are lifting weights two or three times a week and we are watching a lot of film.”

The Bison have switched to the Red Division of the MSC for its final year in the conference before joining the Upstate Eight next season. “Aurora Christian, Timothy Christian and Chicago Christian seem to be the top teams,” said Mello. “There won’t be any easy days in the conference.”

Montini football team falls just short in Class 5A state title game Broncos stopped on potential game-tying drive as time expires

By Mike Miazga CORRESPONDENT

The Montini football team simply ran out of time.

The Broncos were stopped on a potential game-tying drive as time expired in a 35-27 loss to Joliet Catholic Academy in the Class 5A state title game at Memorial Stadium on the grounds of the University of Illinois.

Montini, the No. 4 seed in the top half of the 5A bracket, finished the season 12-2, while Joliet Catholic, the No. 14 seed in the bottom half of the bracket that got into the playoffs with a 5-4 record, finished 10-4 after winning all five of its playoff games.

Joliet Catholic went ahead for the final time at 35-27 with 1:33 left to play after a 30-yard touchdown run.

Montini took over on its own 20yard line with 1:33 left and marched down the field 73 yards on 13 plays with highlights that included a Nick Fedanzo 16-yard run, a Zach Olson 20-yard reception from quarterback Robert Brazziel and an 18-yard catch

by Nate Muersch.

The Broncos faced third-down and 5 from the JCA 11 when JCA was flagged for holding during an incomplete pass. That gave Montini a first down from the Joliet 6. Two incompletions and a one-yard rushing loss preceded an interception on the game’s final play.

Montini struck first in the game when Fedanzo scored on a 34-yard touchdown run with 9:03 to play in the first quarter. JCA tied it at 7-7 with 4:10 to play in the first after a 6-yard touchdown run.

Montini went up 21-7 at one point in the second quarter after Deontay Bell scored on a 73-yard touchdown

run and Fedanzo scored on a 12-yard run. Bell’s run established a new Class 5A state title game record for longest rush in a title game.

JCA cut it to 21-14 at halftime after a 3-yard run and tied the game at 21-21 on a 9-yard touchdown run with 8:04 to play in the third.

Montini took its final lead at 27-21 with 4:47 to play in the third when Fedanzo scored on a 20-yard run.

Montini missed the extra point.

JCA scored the final 14 points in the fourth quarter on touchdown runs of 18 and 30 yards.

Montini had 480 total yards of offense, including 317 on the ground.

JCA ran for 461 yards on 66 carries and attempted only three passes.

JCA also held a massive 30:1317:47 time of possession advantage and converted 8 of 12 third-down attempts and 2 of 3 fourth-down at-

tempts.

Montini’s Fedanzo finished the day with 17 carries for 186 yards and three touchdowns, while Bell had seven carries for 104 yards and a score. Brazziel threw for 163 yards with Muersch catching four balls for 72 yards. Fedanzo had 218 all-purpose yards.

JCA running back Nick Iannantone rushed for 318 yards on 40 carries (7.9 yards per carry) and scored three touchdowns. Iannantone came into the game with 1,297 yards rushing and 14 scores.

JCA leading rusher Keenan Hailey (2,541 yards and 32 TDs heading into the game) ran for 96 yards on 18 carries and scored two touchdowns.

The 318-yard outburst doesn’t come close to the state title game rushing record in Class 5A. JCA holds that mark with Ty Isaac rushing for 515 yards and six touchdowns against Montini in the 2011 state-title game. Montini won that classic 70-45 with Broncos quarterback John Rhode throwing for state title-game records of 587 yards and seven touchdowns as Montini racked up 853 total yards compared to JCA’s 791.

In this year’s finale, Jackson Bruscianelli led the Montini defense with 15 tackles (11 solos) and one forced fumble. Diandre Harris had 12 tackles, while C.J. Bufkin had nine tackles, one tackle for loss and a fumble recovery. Jemari Harris and Scott West each had six tackles.

Montini was in search of its seventh football state title. This was the program’s third state runner-up finish.

The Broncos won state titles in 2004, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2015, while taking second in 2013, 2014 and now 2018.

Montini was back in the state-championship game for the first time since 2015 after going 1-1 in the 2016 playoffs and losing in the first round in the 2017 playoffs last year. This is coach Mike Bukovsky’s second year at the helm after taking over for longtime coach Chris Andriano, who won the six state titles to go with two second-place finishes. Andriano coached 38 years at the school and won 300 games.

On the awards front, Montini had no shortage of players earn all-state honors this season. Bruscianelli, a senior linebacker, and Fedanzo both were named to the Illinois High School Football Coaches Association Class 5A all-state team.

Bruscianelli was the conference defensive co-MVP this season.

Bruscianelli also was named to the Champaign News-Gazette allstate team. The News-Gazette is one of the few remaining media outlets that produces a true all-state team that encompasses the entire state of Illinois. This is the newspaper’s 83rd edition.

Scott West, a senior defensive back, wide receiver and kicker, also earned News-Gazette allstate honors, while Fedanzo and defensive lineman Fred Stokes earned News-Gazette all-state special-mention honors.

Fedanzo finished the season with 1,421 rushing yards and 19 touchdowns. Bruscianelli had 148 tackles, six quarterback sacks and 13

tackles for loss, while West led the team with six interceptions. Stokes had 95 tackles, 11 quarterback sacks and 22 tackles for loss.
