YOUTH WITH ANXIETY SAY IT FEELS LIKE: Being so scared you’re paralyzed

Your mind and body are on high alert for no obvious reason Constant worry and fear

You’re dying, because there is no way you would feel like this if you weren’t

You can’t breathe; air is all around you, but you can’t get to it

Your heart is beating out of your chest

Being so uncomfortable you wish you could crawl out of your own skin Everything is happening all at once

Being repulsed and afraid of your own body and the illnesses it could possibly have

Having fear of what tomorrow holds Never being able to truly relax

Always worrying about the future and the possibility of disappointing others

Not being good enough and always blaming yourself

ANXIETY DISORDERS ARE REAL ILLNESSES THAT ARE BASED ON EXTREME FEAR. THEY AFFECT OUR BODY, OUR THOUGHTS, AND OUR BEHAVIORS. SUPPORT4U IS READY TO HELP. Support4U is a mental health-related prevention and support resource for students, by which they can text licensed mental health clinicians any time of the day for assistance or guidance. While students can initiate a text conversation on any issue, some of the matters that students might wish to address could include anxiety, depression, substance use, suicidal ideation, eating disorders, bullying, abuse, or any other mental health-related topic.

The resource is anonymous, so student’s concerns about their identity are not a barrier to reaching out.

The clinician’s goal during the text conversation is to assess for risk, help the student develop coping strategies and guide the student to available resources in the community and school.

COMING DOWN: A backhoe tears at the structure of the building at 28 E. Burlington St. in downtown Riverside last week. Built in 1930, the building had served as the village’s post office, as a grocery store and, most recently, as a notorious “pill mill� that ceased operating in early 2017.

ART IN THE RAW The 12th Annual Riverside Arts Weekend drew families to Guthrie Park in downtown Riverside –in between the raindrops – on May 18 and 19 to look at and purchase work from more than 30 artists, like (clockwise, from top) Rashmi Ranganath, whose colorful paintings were quite eye-catching; people check out Chris Neumer’s breathtaking photos of Riverside and nearby environs; RAW featured some unusual work in a variety of media; children tackle an art project at the Riverside Arts Center tent.

Lions second, Friars third at water polo state finals Both teams fall to eventual state champ Naperville Central

By MARTY FARMER

Sports Editor

side from being perennial contenders to win a state championship, the Lyons Township and Fenwick High School boys water polo teams share another commonality, at least based on their collective experience over the weekend.

Neither team is a big fan of Naperville Central. While the Lions and Friars respect the Redhawks, the latter defeated both en route to their second straight state championship on Saturday, May 18 at Stevenson High School.

LTHS The Lions fell behind Naperville Central early en route to an 8-5 loss in the IHSA state finals.

LTHS trailed 3-0 after one period and 6-1 after three, while struggling to solve the Redhawks’ stout defense. In the fourth, the Lions outscored Naperville Central 4-2 but ultimately fell short in their comeback attempt.

“I thought it was important for us to score early in the game to gain the momentum,” LTHS coach Doug Eichstaedt said. “Naperville Central has really strong field players in front of a very talented goalie. They make it very difficult to score.

“We made some adjustments and the players started to execute our offensive game plan more effectively. The game was for the state championship so our players were never giving up. They worked too hard to not give their all at the end.”

Senior star Victor Perez led LTHS with a match-high three goals, while Bobby Bolan and Liam Malas scored a goal each. Goalie Ray Berg finished with 10 saves.

Luke-Klein Collins, Bender Russo and Brad Sanford paced Naperville Central with two goals apiece. Sanford and Klein-Collins dished out three and two assists, respectively.

The Lions (30-5) edged Lincoln-Way East (12-11) in a see-saw battle in the semifinals.

Bolan (5 goals, 4 assists), Perez (3 goals) and Ethan Wright (2 goals) powered the offense, while Berg tallied 10 saves in the cage.

LTHS only loses six players (notably Perez and Berg) to graduation. Bolan, Malas, Wright, Martin Brown, Eric Markey and Sebastian Perez return next season to lead an experienced group who should be one of the top teams in the state.

“Every year creates opportunities for oth-

er players to step up into different roles,” Eichstaedt said. “We have a strong core group of varsity players returning and a very successful [frosh/soph] group that will compete for playing time. I am excited to see the development over the next 12 months.”

Fenwick The Friars strive to win their last match every season. With 20 state championships in the school’s trophy cases, the perennial focus is to be the best.

Although Fenwick won its last game this spring, the 17-11 victory over Lincoln-Way East unfortunately occurred in the thirdplace game of the state finals.

“We set out to win the state championship and fell short of our goal,” Fenwick coach Kyle Perry said. “Not achieving a goal is disappointing, but I would not want any other goal than the one we set four years ago. Only two teams win their final game of the season and we made sure that we were one of those two teams.”

Naperville Central was the other team to claim a final victory, the aforementioned 8-5 victory over Lyons Township in the state final. The Redhawks derailed the Friars’ run with a 10-6 win in the semifinals.

“Despite the disappointing finish, I think the team has a lot to be proud of,” said Fenwick senior Nate Fisher, who will play water polo at Occidental College in Los Ange-

les. “For us seniors to leave without every bringing a state championship trophy home is tough, but we also know that we finished with our best season. We are leaving Fenwick water polo in a good place and in good hands.”

Fenwick (32-4) finished the season on a positive note against Lincoln-Way East. The Friars jumped on the Griffins early in the first quarter, leading 5-0 after the opening 10 minutes. Fenwick led 9-3 at halftime and cruised to victory the rest of the way.

Navy-bound Payton Comstock and Alex Figus went out in style as both players had four goals and an assist. Fisher (2 goals, 4 assists), senior Ramses Flores (goal, 4 assists), and junior Dan Bajda (3 goals, assist) also played well for the victors.

“In each of the last three seasons, we’ve been one of the top teams in Illinois,” Perry said. “These seniors did not believe what anyone else was telling them about how Fenwick would never return to top form.

They took that criticism as a challenge and have made me very proud with the mark they have left on our aquatics program.”

Playoffs in full swing for RBHS baseball Lyons Township, Nazareth and Fenwick also aim for success in second season

By MARTY FARMER Sports Editor

The high school state baseball playoffs begin this week with several area teams boasting both the talent and resume to make a deep postseason run. Here’s a preview of how Riverside-Brookfield, Nazareth Academy, Lyons Township and Fenwick measure up against the competition in Class 4A. With multiple players assuming larger roles this spring, RBHS turned in a terrific regular-season campaign. The Bulldogs finished 20-8 overall with an 8-4 record and secondplace showing in the Metro Suburban Conference.

“We are playing better as the season has progressed,” RBHS assistant coach Mark Ruge said. “We’ve been able to insert younger guys in high pressure situations which will help us going forward into next season. In the playoffs, we need to play loose and slow the game down. It’s about trusting the work we have put in and attacking each at bat and inning one at a time.”

Junior Nate Swanson (6-1) and senior Nate Roberto (6-2) anchor the pitching staff. Freshman shortstop Owen Murphy and junior catcher Mike Schicker, who are cousins, lead RBHS offensively.

Murphy is hitting .413 with three home runs and 22 RBIs, while Schicker has produced comparable numbers at .385 with three homers and 29 RBIs. Juniors Marco Ruiz (.362, 16 RBIs) and Joe Kawiecki (.329, 22 RBIs) have been top

contributors as well.

The Bulldogs are the No. 8 seed in the stacked St. Rita Sectional. The host Mustangs, Nazareth, Brother Rice, LTHS and Mount Carmel represent the top five seeds, respectively, and are all state title contenders.

RBHS faces regional host Morton on Thursday, May 23 (4:30 p.m.). If the Bulldogs win, they will likely face St. Rita in the regional championship game on Saturday, May 25 (11 a.m.).

Led by 6-foot-4 pitcher/Louisville recruit Michael Prosecky and senior catcher Andrew McKenna, Nazareth has plenty of pitching and offense to enjoy a lengthy stay in the 4A draw. Teddy Olander, Zach Carmignani, Brevin Reifsteck, Michael Milano and Cole Vercelli are other notable players.

The regional host Roadrunners face the winner of Curie vs. Kennedy in a semifinal Wednesday, May 22 at 4 p.m.

With a victory, Nazareth advances to the championship game against either St. Ignatius or Reavis on Saturday, May 25 at 11 a.m. in LaGrange Park.

Lyons Township has some of the most enviable pitching depth in the state. The Lions feature Illinois-bound ace Grant Leader, Michael Walsh, Eric Steensma, Andrew Garland. Brendan Lawry and James Severson. Additionally, Thomas Remijas and Danny Machaj power a solid offense.

The Lions landed in a tricky regional at Mount Carmel.

While they should win their opener against the winner of Argo/Proviso East, the host Caravan likely await LTHS in

Although Fenwick is the ninth seed in the Loyola Academy Sectional, the Friars have the good fortune of hosting a regional. Led by Lucas Kolovitz, Will Hendricks and Cal Malchow, Fenwick opens against Notre Dame on Thursday, May 23 at the Priory in River Forest at 4:30 p.m.

The regional final, which will likely pit Glenbrook South against the winner of Fenwick/Notre Dame is Saturday, May 25 at noon.

Lyons Township, Fenwick, Trinity softball also eager to do damage in draw

By MARTY FARMER Sports Editor

Riverside-Brookfield High School softball coach Doug Schultz stressed the importance of mental toughness to his players this season. The Bulldogs took the message to heart with a 24-4 regular-season record, highlighted by a 9-3 runner-up finish in the Metro Suburban Conference.

“I’m very pleased with the regular season,” Schultz said. “Our conference schedule was much more challenging and we still finished well. I believe this experience will prepare us for the state tournament. If we don’t look ahead and assume an early round win, we should do fine.”

Led by Emily Noel, Ashley Lynch and Isabella Garcia (among several sweet-swinging others), the Bulldogs score runs in bunches. RBHS scored double-digit in runs in 14 games, highlighted by 20 runs on four occasions.

Nadia Ranieri, another potent hitter, also headlines the team’s pitching rotation, which includes Emily Bloom, Jacqueline DMonte and Hannah Organ.

“We have grown very strong as a team,” Noel said. “Our goal is to go far in the state

RBHS is the No. 2 seed behind sectional host Marist in Class 4A. The Bulldogs faced the winner of regional host Hinsdale Central/Kelly on Tuesday, May 21 after the

Landmark’s press time. If the Bulldogs won, they move on to Saturday’s final at 10 a.m. on May 25 at Hinsdale Central.

Shortstop Katelyn Malikowski (.333 batting average, 22 runs scored), Lily Hanafin

(.390, 22 RBIs, 22 runs scored), Ava Kostecki (5-3, 2.38 ERA, 98 strikeouts in 73 innings), outfielder Josie Arriaga and catcher Payton McQueeny lead LTHS. “We will look to get more clutch hits in the playoffs,” said LTHS coach Nikki Paluch.

“Our bracket looks tough, but we expect a hard battle and some great softball.”

The Lions (9-14) take on host Morton in regional semifinal on Wednesday, May 22 at 4:30 p.m.

In Class 3A, rivals Fenwick and Trinity are both in the Benet Academy Sectional.

The Friars and Blazers are seeded second and sixth, respectively, with fellow contenders St. Francis, Glenbard South and Benet (No. 1, 3 and 5) in the bracket.

In regional semifinal games, Trinity takes on Noble Street Charter and Fenwick faces Phoenix Military Academy. Fenwick and Trinity have to win three games apiece to set up a rematch in the Benet Sectional final on Tuesday, May 28.

The Friars feature a strong pitching combination of veterans Cassy Lee and Alyssa Stramaglia.

“We’re eager for competition and we will thrive when the pressure is on,” Fenwick coach Sarah James said.
