A quarter century of fandom<br />

Winnetka sports,<br />

entertainment<br />

memorabilia store<br />

a proven favorite<br />

Jacqueline Glosniak, Editor<br />

Going into a bar, basement<br />

or bedroom of a super<br />

sports fan, what’s the<br />

one thing you’ll undoubtedly<br />

see? A signed piece<br />

of sports memorabilia — a<br />

poster, a jersey, a ball.<br />

Twenty-five years and<br />

four locations later, Northfield<br />

resident Keith Mc-<br />

Donough has made it the<br />

goal of his Winnetka shop,<br />

Bleachers Sports & Framing,<br />

to help these fans<br />

both locally and across the<br />

country get their hands on<br />

100 percent authentic and<br />

memorable pieces of sports<br />

history.<br />

While McDonough’s<br />

store now features a plethora<br />

of everything from<br />

signed photos, jerseys,<br />

basketballs, shoes, albums<br />

and posters, the inspiration<br />

for opening a store sprung<br />

from a simple collection of<br />

baseball cards in the late<br />

1980s.<br />

Originally, McDonough<br />

thought it would be a fun<br />

hobby to start collecting<br />

baseball cards for his then<br />

5-year-old son.<br />

“I decided to start buying<br />

him baseball cards from the<br />

year he was born, which<br />

was 1987, and got really<br />

into it,” McDonough said.<br />

“I got really hooked and<br />

then I had all this stuff and<br />

I was like, ‘I have to figure<br />

out a way to do something<br />

with it.’”<br />

Eventually, McDonough<br />

— who had always been a<br />

sports fan and played intermural<br />

sports growing up<br />

— decided to leave his job<br />

as a financial social worker<br />

with a United Way agency<br />

and make his new calling<br />

running a sports memorabilia<br />

store.<br />

In the beginning, Bleachers<br />

started out selling authenticated<br />

baseball cards.<br />

Soon after, McDonough<br />

became interested in basketball<br />

items from Upper<br />

Deck sports memorabilia<br />

company, which in the<br />

early ’90s, came around to<br />

authenticating Michael Jordan<br />

autographs — something<br />

that was in-demand<br />

in the area as the Chicago<br />

Bulls were at their peak<br />

during that time. Then,<br />

McDonough began getting<br />

into the business of authentic<br />

autographs on jerseys,<br />

basketballs, baseballs and<br />

more.<br />

“Now, we have one of<br />

the best sports memorabilia<br />

stores in the business, maybe<br />

the entire nation,” said<br />

McDonough, who runs the<br />

store with the help of his<br />

wife, Patti, and son, Sam.<br />

At Bleachers, Mc-<br />

Donough says all of his<br />

items are certified authentic,<br />

with the majority of<br />

products including tamperproof<br />

authentication stickers<br />

that come with certificates<br />

of authenticity with<br />

matching sticker numbers.<br />

For much of the baseball<br />

memorabilia, for example,<br />

items he sells are first-party<br />

MLB-authenticated, meaning<br />

someone witnessed the<br />

athlete signing the item and<br />

then immediately placed a<br />

sticker of authenticity on<br />

the product.<br />

While Chicago is a huge<br />

sports city, Bleachers’<br />

memorabilia is not limited<br />

to items from Chicago<br />

teams. McDonough sells<br />

everything from photographs<br />

of historic baseball<br />

greats Ted Williams and<br />

Babe Ruth to soccer items<br />

signed by FIFA stars Cristiano<br />

Ronaldo and Neymar,<br />

jerseys of Los Angeles<br />

Lakers legend Magic Johnson<br />

and even jerseys and<br />

posters of NCAA teams.<br />

And, for the last three<br />

years, McDonough has<br />

also featured music memorabilia<br />

in his store, having<br />

items from artists across<br />

the gamut from legends<br />

Keith Richards, Bruce<br />

Springsteen, Peter Gabriel,<br />

The Beatles and The Beach<br />

Boys to modern-day phenoms<br />

Adele, Bruno Mars<br />

and Justin Timberlake.<br />

For framed pieces of both<br />

athletes and musicians,<br />

McDonough often makes<br />

production pieces out of<br />

the autographs — printing<br />

a clean copy of song lyrics<br />

to frame alongside a signed<br />

headshot or album cover<br />

or having a signed jersey<br />

framed next to a photo of<br />

the athlete.<br />

McDonough ships his<br />

products nation-wide and<br />

stresses that many things in<br />

his store are limited edition,<br />

so clients are truly getting<br />

one-of-a-kind pieces of<br />

sport and pop culture history.<br />

“We have to have unique<br />

stuff, so what we have is<br />

framed professionally for a<br />

good price,” he said.<br />

Occasionally, Bleachers<br />

will also work alongside<br />

local charities for products<br />

for auction for fundraisers<br />

at hospitals, schools in<br />

need and other civic groups<br />

at McDonough’s discretion.<br />

Additionally, Bleachers<br />

doesn’t just sell sports<br />

memorabilia but also specializes<br />

in custom framing<br />

of customers’ existing<br />

professional sports memorabilia<br />

or even jerseys,<br />

equipment and photos of<br />

local youth and high school<br />

athletes.<br />

Overall, McDonough<br />

has enjoyed spending the<br />

last 25 years serving a wide<br />

mix of clients, working<br />

alongside his loved ones<br />

and making the store a reflection<br />

of his interests.<br />

“Aside from working<br />

with my family and aside<br />

from the cool people I meet,<br />

the fact that I get to select<br />

what we’re going to display<br />

and sell and I get to purchase<br />

all of that, and I get to have<br />

input as to how I’m going to<br />

frame it [is my favorite],” he<br />

said. “This is really my taste<br />

on the walls here.”<br />

Helping pets find their forever homes<br />

PAWS Chicago<br />

sponsors secondannual<br />

adoption<br />

event in Winnetka<br />

Emma Palatnik<br />

Editorial Intern<br />

Pairs of furry friends<br />

walked, sat, drank water<br />

and slept on Lincoln Avenue<br />

as part of Winnetka’s<br />

second annual Angels with<br />

Tails adoption event on<br />

Saturday, June 17.<br />

PAWS Chicago, along<br />

with Chicago English<br />

Bulldog Rescue, Greater<br />

Chicago Cavalier Rescue,<br />

Heartland Animal Shelter<br />

and Yorkshire Terrier<br />

National Rescue, brought<br />

homeless puppies,<br />

kittens, dogs and cats to<br />

Winnetka’s sidewalks for<br />

locals to visit and consider<br />

adopting.<br />

“We have brought<br />

nearly 50 homeless dogs,<br />

puppies, cats and kittens<br />

here to the streets<br />

of Winnetka and we’re<br />

really excited to try to<br />

find them all great homes<br />

here today,” PAWS volunteer<br />

Celene Mielcarek<br />

said. “So far, we’ve been<br />

having a fantastic time,<br />

[there are] lots of interested<br />

adopters, it seems<br />

like lots of good matches<br />

are finding their way and<br />

hopefully lots of animals<br />

will go home.”<br />

The Angels with Tails<br />

event was presented by<br />

Winnetka Animal Hospital<br />

and sponsored by Merrick<br />

Pet Care.<br />

Dr. Kurt Miller, veterinarian<br />

and owner of Winnetka<br />

Animal Hospital, has<br />

worked with PAWS Chicago<br />

since its infancy.<br />

When the organization<br />

first started, they lacked<br />

the hospital capabilities<br />

Cats waiting to be adopted.<br />

they have now. So, Miller<br />

performed pro-bono surgeries<br />

for them. As the<br />

organization grew, they<br />

no longer needed Miller<br />

to perform surgeries, so he<br />

switched to the fundraising<br />

side.<br />

Miller and his wife, Julie,<br />

work with PAWS Chicago<br />

to grow the cause in<br />

the North Shore.<br />

“[We are] helping with<br />

the mission of spreading<br />

the word of “no-kill<br />

Chicago,” Julie Miller<br />

said. “[PAWS Chicago]<br />

not only adopts, but their<br />

big thing is [to] spay and<br />

neuter which controls the<br />

population and that’s why<br />

I think we’re really comfortable<br />

being behind the<br />

cause.”<br />

According to the Millers,<br />

the event went well<br />

and in the first hour,<br />

more than half the puppies<br />

and kittens were<br />

adopted.<br />

“I think this being the<br />

second year, people had<br />

more of a historical view<br />

of it,” Julie Miller said.<br />

“We had a lot of people<br />

who were here before it<br />

even started, which was so<br />

flattering.”<br />

There was an option<br />

for people to make donations<br />

to support the cause<br />

instead of adopting an animal.<br />

Julie Miller said someone<br />

even donated a car,<br />

which is helpful since the<br />

organization needs a way<br />

to transport animals.<br />

Additionally, this year<br />

marks the 20th anniversary<br />

of Angels with Tails.<br />

The Winnetka event was<br />

the second Angels with<br />

Tails adoption of the year.<br />

The first was in the Gold<br />

Coast and they will hold<br />

another in Roscoe Village<br />

later this year.<br />

“These are great lifesaving<br />

events where<br />

we’re able to partner with<br />

community members, local<br />

merchants and other<br />

invited shelters that will<br />

also come and be a part<br />

of this effort,” Mielcarek<br />

said.<br />

PAWS Chicago is<br />

strictly a volunteer organization<br />

and any donated<br />

money goes directly to the<br />

cause.<br />

As for local expansion,<br />

they recently opened the<br />

Glenn N. Felner North<br />

Shore Adoption Center,<br />

located at 1616 Deerfield<br />

Road in Highland Park,<br />

where every Saturday,<br />

volunteers bring new puppies,<br />

dogs and kittens to<br />

be adopted.<br />

Leslie Kolber is a PAWS<br />

ambassador.<br />

“I fostered about 40 kittens<br />

and several dogs in the<br />

past two and a half years,”<br />

Kolber said. “When I bring<br />

the kittens home, they’re<br />

usually about three and a<br />

half or four weeks. Sometimes<br />

they half to be bottle<br />

fed, sometimes syringe fed,<br />

sometimes they’re able to<br />

eat on their own. But my job<br />

is to socialize them [with<br />

my dogs] and make them fat<br />

— I’m the queen of that.”<br />

Carrie Joy Lash has volunteered<br />

with PAWS for<br />

the past eight years.<br />

She works at the shelter,<br />

special events, trains new<br />

volunteers, fosters animals<br />

and is on the running team.<br />

“I love events like this,”<br />

she said. “I think they’re<br />

just fun to get out and meet<br />

people, just be out in the<br />

community and tell people<br />

about PAWS [and] hang<br />

out with dogs.”

THE NORTHBROOK TOWER<br />

Lifeguards rescue 7-yearold<br />

boy from pool<br />

Northbrook fire officials<br />

are praising Park District<br />

lifeguards after the latter<br />

saved a 7-year-old boy<br />

from the bottom of the<br />

pool at Meadowhill Aquatic<br />

Center, 1501 Maple<br />

Ave., Northbrook.<br />

On the afternoon of June<br />

13, a male lifeguard noticed<br />

a child at the bottom<br />

of the main pool.<br />

“He was right in the<br />

middle of the pool, which<br />

is probably about 3.6 feet<br />

deep,” Park District Marketing<br />

Coordinator Ann<br />

Ziolkowski said. “The<br />

guard saw him on the pool<br />

floor and blew his whistle,<br />

which then all the other<br />

guards blew their whistles.<br />

He jumped in the pool,<br />

pulled the child up and<br />

started performing mouth<br />

to mouth.”<br />

Another lifeguard called<br />

911. A Northbrook police<br />

officer happened to be<br />

nearby and quickly arrived<br />

to assist with CPR. A bystander<br />

at the scene identified<br />

himself as a doctor, Ziolkowski<br />

said, and helped<br />

with response efforts.<br />

Paramedics took the boy<br />

to a nearby hospital. Firefighters<br />

on the scene said<br />

the lifeguards’ actions were<br />

“incredibly heroic,” according<br />

to the Park District,<br />

and reported that the boy<br />

was conscious and responsive<br />

en route to the hospital.<br />

Both fire and park officials<br />

declined to comment<br />

on his current condition.<br />

The boy’s rescue was<br />

due in part to lifeguards’<br />

preparation for such scenarios,<br />

fire officials said.<br />

The same group of Meadowhill<br />

lifeguards had just<br />

completed a simulated rescue<br />

with the Northbrook<br />

Fire Department a mere<br />

four days earlier.<br />

“I won’t deny there was<br />

luck involved (with the timing)<br />

but it was all the training<br />

and mindset that these<br />

guys get from their managers,”<br />

Northbrook Division<br />

Chief of Training and Safety<br />

Tim Cassidy said.<br />

THE GLENVIEW LANTERN<br />

Streetfest to battle hunger<br />

on North Shore<br />

Food insecurity is not a<br />

problem that many people<br />

associate with the North<br />

Shore, but the Northfield<br />

Township Food Pantry<br />

hopes to change that with<br />

Pantry Palooza Friday,<br />

June 24.<br />

The event will take<br />

place from 6-10 p.m. at the<br />

downtown Glenview Metra<br />

parking lot. Admission<br />

for the event will cost $15<br />

and the night will feature<br />

food and drinks from local<br />

vendors and live music by<br />

97 Nine, Rock House favorite<br />

Van Houten and the<br />

Evanston School of Rock<br />

House Band.<br />

“We’re hoping to get<br />

a nice attendance,” said<br />

Gayle Curcio, a Northfield<br />

Township Food Pantry<br />

volunteer. “It would be<br />

nice to see a couple hundred<br />

people there to come<br />

out and support the pantry<br />

and support the families<br />

that use the food pantry.<br />

It’s just a night to have fun,<br />

listen to some good music,<br />

have some great local food<br />

and support the pantry.”<br />

The food pantry hopes to<br />

raise $20,000 by the end of<br />

the night, a slight increase<br />

from its last annual fundraiser.<br />

The funds earned<br />

will go toward monthly<br />

food distribution programs<br />

and pantry operations.<br />

“I think the more that people<br />

find out we have a food<br />

pantry and the community<br />

that it serves, it just helps<br />

to raise awareness,” Curcio<br />

said. “It’s a problem that can<br />

affect everybody and no one<br />

is immune from being food<br />

insecure. Any time we can<br />

get our name out and people<br />

hear about the Northfield<br />

Township Food Pantry and<br />

what they do, that just helps<br />

further our mission.”<br />

THE HIGHLAND PARK LANDMARK<br />

City looking for input on<br />

library expansion<br />

The Highland Park Public<br />

Library may be undergoing<br />

an expansion, and<br />

the City, together with the<br />

library, is planning on hosting<br />

six upcoming meetings<br />

“to gather public input,”<br />

according to Mayor Nancy<br />

Rotering. She discussed<br />

the upcoming meetings at<br />

the regular meeting of the<br />

Highland Park City Council<br />

on Monday, June 12.<br />

“Public engagement<br />

and feedback are a critical<br />

component of this potential<br />

project,” Rotering said.<br />

The meetings are some<br />

of the first steps in a plan<br />

that has been worked on<br />

for at least two years.<br />

“We’ve been talking<br />

about this since 2015,”<br />

Rotering said.<br />

In April, the city council<br />

approved a resolution hiring<br />

an architectural firm to<br />

conduct a $52,500 study<br />

to develop options for the<br />

potential expansion. The<br />

library has purchased two<br />

single-family homes east<br />

of its current location for<br />

$1.5 million to expand on<br />

that area.<br />

The first public input<br />

meeting is June 21.<br />

The city council also approved<br />

a consideration of a<br />

recommendation for a development<br />

plan.<br />

The plan is for a nine-unit<br />

multifamily development at<br />

1637-1645 McGovern St.,<br />

and members of the city<br />

Northfield man angry over construction waves gun at site workers<br />

Geoff<br />

The Whitchurch<br />

family of Winnetka<br />

Geoff is a very<br />

large 5-year-old<br />

golden retriever<br />

(note his big<br />

paws). His favorite<br />

thing to do is go<br />

on errands with<br />

his dad, especially<br />

to places where<br />

he can snag a<br />

treat. Geoff’s dad takes him everywhere because<br />

he is very well behaved. Here he is at Chase Bank,<br />

where they wouldn’t let him cash a check, but did<br />

give him a Milk Bone. Geoff loves people and is<br />

very affectionate. He also likes to chase balls, go<br />

to the dog beach and have his mom give him a<br />

tummy rub before bed.<br />

Around 12:15 p.m. on<br />

June 5, Marcus White, 61,<br />

of Northfield, became angry<br />

over construction noise<br />

near his home on Bristol<br />

Avenue that he took a shotgun<br />

and waved it over his<br />

head as he yelled at construction<br />

workers. After<br />

the workers called police<br />

to report the incident, police<br />

went to White’s home,<br />

ordering him to come<br />

outside without his gun,<br />

which White did, telling<br />

officers he was upset about<br />

the amount of noise coming<br />

from the construction<br />

site and said his gun was<br />

not loaded. Police arrested<br />

White for a misdemeanor<br />

charge of possession of a<br />

firearm without a firearm<br />

owner’s identification card<br />

and he was also cited for<br />

breach of the peace. Northfield<br />

police confiscated<br />

the gun and White was released<br />

on a $1,500 bond.<br />

Program fosters creativity in children at Clarkson Park<br />

Alexa Burnell<br />

Freelance Reporter<br />

Wilmette’s Edward Dean learns about new instruments<br />

from the Music Institute of Chicago at the Alliance For<br />

Early Childhood’s “Let’s Play” days.<br />

Teaching families simple<br />

ways to spark imagination<br />

is what The Alliance<br />

for Early Childhood is all<br />

about. The nonprofit hosted<br />

its annual “Let’s Play!”<br />

days June 5-7, teaching<br />

families simple ways to<br />

spark imagination, while<br />

reinforcing the importance<br />

of unstructured play for<br />

growing young minds.<br />

Liza Sullivan, of Wilmette<br />

and executive director<br />

of the AEC, explained<br />

that the theme of “fostering<br />

creativity” was woven<br />

into events at Clarkson<br />

Park in Northfield, Townley<br />

Park in Kenilworth<br />

and Vattmann Park in<br />

Wilmette. The goal was to<br />

give pointers on simple,<br />

easy-to-replicate ideas for<br />

child-led play.<br />

“With the summer coming<br />

up, we see many families<br />

registering kids into all<br />

day camps and structured<br />

classes,” Sullivan said.<br />

“While these programs are<br />

great, we want to bring<br />

light to the importance of<br />

letting kids create, imagine,<br />

invent and problem solve<br />

on their own in unstructured<br />

environments where<br />

kids lead the way for play.”<br />

According to Sullivan,<br />

self-directed play appeals<br />

to kids of all ages and promotes<br />

learning and critical<br />

thinking skills too.<br />

“There is growing research<br />

that links creativity<br />

and imagination to the<br />

ability to be successful in<br />

a global world,” she said.<br />

“Kids need to be able to<br />

synthesize content, collaborate<br />

with others and be<br />

creative in order to be successful<br />

in today’s world.”<br />

Anne Halley, director of<br />

Chicago Botanic Garden’s<br />

preschool, is a supporter of<br />

self-directed play and participated<br />

at Townley Park.<br />

She introduced kids to the<br />

concept of loose parts play,<br />

where materials such as<br />

Popsicle sticks, feathers,<br />

rocks, toilet paper rolls,<br />

shells and yarn replaced<br />

typical store-bought toys.<br />

“Loose parts play is<br />

open ended and appeals to<br />

all ages. Older ones often<br />

want to build something<br />

specific, but all their own,”<br />

Halley said. “Younger<br />

ones often want to put objects<br />

in a jar, dump them<br />

out and then do it all over<br />

again. While this may<br />

seem simplistic, this type<br />

of play is the foundation<br />

for math skills, and allowing<br />

kids to direct their own<br />

play is empowering.”<br />

Also at Townley Park,<br />

children experimented with<br />

instruments brought by the<br />

Music Institute of Chicago,<br />

as well as simply playing in<br />

the sand boxes, running in<br />

the fields and climbing in<br />

trees. Parents mingled while<br />

allowing their little ones to<br />

meet new friends and direct<br />

their morning, with little direction<br />

from mom or dad.<br />

On day two at Vattmann<br />

Park, little ones were welcomed<br />

to play with a variety<br />

of bubble making toys,<br />

scarves and hula hoops<br />

provided by the Kohl Children’s<br />

Museum.<br />

The Museum’s education<br />

specialists Theresa<br />

Ruvalcaba and Sarah<br />

Rankin stood back, watching<br />

as kids created new<br />

ways to play with these<br />

everyday objects.<br />

“As soon as I put the<br />

bubble mixture out, kids<br />

instinctively dumped it on<br />

the sidewalk, deciding for<br />

themselves how to best<br />

use the soap. Soon, a few<br />

kids started jumping in the<br />

CENTURY MEDIA<br />

Winnetka’s Alex Wolf gets creative with Nicole Filippone, Lincoln Park Zoo’s Child<br />

and Family Program Facilitator during the Alliance For Early Childhood’s “Let’s Play”<br />

days at Clarkson Park.<br />

bubble mix and before we<br />

knew it, many other kids<br />

followed suit,” Ruvalcaba<br />

said. “They had more fun<br />

jumping in puddles, rather<br />

than making bubbles as we<br />

the adults had intended. It’s<br />

activities like these that remind<br />

us to step back and<br />

let kids explore, create and<br />

lead the way when it comes<br />

to play.”<br />

The final day at Northfield’s<br />

Clarkson Park encouraged<br />

kids to embrace<br />

their inner Picasso by<br />

creating elaborate sidewalk<br />

art, or to engage in<br />

self-directed, nature play<br />

with representatives from<br />

Lincoln Park Zoo. Nicole<br />

Filippone and Emily Van<br />

Laan, the zoo’s early childhood<br />

program facilitators,<br />

laid out toy animals, colorful<br />

swatches of fabric, natural<br />

loose parts like sticks,<br />

leaves, and rocks, letting<br />

kids create their own play.<br />

Soon, some little ones<br />

pretended to be vets caring<br />

for the sick animals, while<br />

others pretended they were<br />

in the jungle being chased<br />

by fierce creatures. Several<br />

older children, took the<br />

colorful swatches of fabric<br />

and sought out natural objects<br />

within Clarkson Park<br />

that were similar in color,<br />

embracing imagination<br />

and creativity.

New community walk sculpture unveiled in Winnetka<br />

SUBMITTED BY HOFFMANN<br />

COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE<br />

Visitors to Winnetka’s downtown<br />

shopping district will now<br />

enjoy a collection of outdoor<br />

public sculptures courtesy of<br />

Hoffmann Commercial Real<br />

Estate. An assortment of bronze<br />

statues has been set in locations<br />

on Lincoln Avenue and Chestnut<br />

Street as part of a beautification<br />

plan surrounding properties<br />

owned by Hoffmann Commercial<br />

Real Estate.<br />

“Sculpture walks enhance<br />

business areas in a number of<br />

ways,” said Greg Hoffmann,<br />

CEO of Hoffmann Commercial<br />

Real Estate. “They add<br />

interest and build community<br />

relationships as people contemplate<br />

and talk about the art.<br />

We are excited to bring these<br />

works to Winnetka and hope<br />

they will become landmarks<br />

that shoppers recognize and<br />

enjoy.”<br />

Artists represented in the<br />

sculpture walk include Ruth<br />

Bloch and Jim Rennert.<br />

Hoffmann Commercial Real<br />

Estate is the leading business<br />

property owner on the North<br />

Shore and has been actively<br />

engaged in promoting an appealing<br />

and welcoming shopping<br />

district in Winnetka. In<br />

addition to the new sculpture<br />

walk, enhancements include<br />

A sculpture<br />

titled “In<br />

Dialogue”<br />

now adorns<br />

downtown<br />

Winnetka<br />

as a part of<br />

Hoffmann<br />

Real<br />

plan to<br />

beautify its<br />

Streetfest to battle hunger on North Shore<br />

Bojana Galic, Editorial Intern<br />

Food insecurity is not a problem<br />

that many people associate<br />

with the North Shore, but<br />

the Northfield Township Food<br />

Pantry hopes to change that<br />

with Pantry Palooza on Friday,<br />

June 24.<br />

The event will take place from<br />

6 p.m.-10 p.m. at the downtown<br />

Glenview Metra parking lot. Admission<br />

for the event will cost<br />

$15 and the night will feature<br />

food and drinks from local vendors<br />

and live music by 97 Nine,<br />

Rock House favorite Van Houten<br />

and the Evanston School of Rock<br />

House Band.<br />

“We’re hoping to get a nice attendance,”<br />

said Gayle Curcio, a<br />

Northfield Township Food Pantry<br />

volunteer. “It would be nice<br />

to see a couple hundred people<br />

there to come out and support<br />

the pantry and support the families<br />

that use the food pantry. It’s<br />

just a night to have fun, listen<br />

to some good music, have some<br />

great local food and support the<br />

pantry.”<br />

The food pantry hopes to raise<br />

$20,000 by the end of the night,<br />

a slight increase from its last annual<br />

fundraiser. The funds earned<br />

will go toward monthly food distribution<br />

programs and pantry<br />

operations.<br />

Curcio expects that the street<br />

festival will bring attention to an<br />

overlooked issue in local communities.<br />

Event coordinators<br />

hope to promote their belief that<br />

hunger is unacceptable in our<br />

community.<br />

“I think the more that people<br />

find out we have a food pantry<br />

and the community that it serves,<br />

it just helps to raise awareness,”<br />

Curcio said. “It’s a problem that<br />

can affect everybody and no one<br />

is immune from being food insecure.<br />

Any time we can get our<br />

name out and people hear about<br />

the Northfield Township Food<br />

Pantry and what they do, that just<br />

helps further our mission.”<br />

Saturday in the park,<br />

I think it was the<br />

Fourth of July<br />

Saturday in the park, I<br />

think it was the Fourth of<br />

July<br />

People dancing, people<br />

laughing<br />

A man selling ice cream<br />

Singing Italian songs...<br />

Every time I hear this<br />

classic song by Chicago<br />

played on the radio, I<br />

think to myself, what<br />

song can better exemplify<br />

what summertime living<br />

in Chicagoland means for<br />

generations of locals?<br />

Around this time every<br />

year in both my hometown<br />

and the surrounding<br />

suburbs, you can<br />

tell it’s summer as soon<br />

as the music emanates<br />

from downtown business<br />

districts and public park<br />

spaces. Since I was a kid,<br />

I’ve attended countless<br />

free concerts in the parks<br />

and tastes of [insert town<br />

here] featuring talented<br />

cover bands, food and<br />

drink booths from popular<br />

local vendors, carnival<br />

rides and fireworks.<br />

Most importantly,<br />

these events have brought<br />

together families and their<br />

friends for neighborly<br />

camaraderie, helping<br />

foster a strong sense of<br />

community and a love for<br />

what makes where we live<br />

fun and unique.<br />

Whether a festival<br />

centered on a specific type<br />

of food, a celebration of<br />

an ethnic group or yes,<br />

a simple Fourth of July<br />

patriotic gathering, both<br />

the many neighborhoods<br />

of Chicago as well as<br />

several local suburbs seem<br />

to know just how to throw<br />

a great summer party.<br />

While Winnetka and<br />

Northfield village and<br />

civic groups work tirelessly<br />

throughout the year<br />

to sponsor great activities<br />

for residents of all ages,<br />

this summer specifically,<br />

Winnetka is keeping the<br />

music alive with two new<br />

events — the Winnetka<br />

Music Festival and the<br />

Summer Music Series.<br />

In its inaugural year,<br />

the Winnetka Music<br />

Festival is poising itself<br />

to be a family-friendly<br />

Lollapalooza of the North<br />

Shore type of event, featuring<br />

a mix of musicians<br />

and singers performing<br />

on four stages throughout<br />

the Elm Street business<br />

district. The free event<br />

kicks off on Friday at<br />

6:30 p.m. and picks up<br />

for one more day on Saturday<br />

at 10:30 a.m. Friday<br />

night performances<br />

will include blues music<br />

from Wilmette native<br />

Will Tilson and Michigan<br />

indie-folk rock band, The<br />

Accidentals. Saturday,<br />

you can see children’s<br />

entertainers at the family<br />

stage, rock band Joe<br />

Hertler & The Rainbow<br />

Seekers and Lollapalooza<br />

alums Wild Belle. Food<br />

and drink vendors will<br />

also be on hand, so bring<br />

the whole family out for<br />

what’s being promised as<br />

the biggest thing to come<br />

to Winnetka in years.<br />

From first reporting on<br />

the event back in April, I<br />

can tell that the Village,<br />

Val’s List and sponsors<br />

have been working tirelessly<br />

to make this event<br />

turn Winnetka into a<br />

premiere music location<br />

for North Shore residents<br />

and beyond.<br />

Additionally, on Thursday,<br />

Friday and Saturday<br />

evenings from 4-8 from<br />

now through August, the<br />

Lincoln Avenue shopping<br />

district will be lively with<br />

professional musicians<br />

from the area entertaining<br />

passersby walking in<br />

and out of local businesses.<br />

Hoffman Commercial<br />

Real Estate will<br />

be partnering with North<br />

Shore Music Institute for<br />

bringing casual performances<br />

from a variety of<br />

music genres to shoppers<br />

and diners. A little music<br />

while dining and shopping<br />

is always a welcome<br />

thing!<br />

I look forward to hearing<br />

peoples’ feedback on<br />

the Winnetka Music Festival<br />

from our coverage<br />

that will be in next week’s<br />

paper and I hope that like<br />

the memories I have from<br />

my neighborhood listening<br />

to music in the parks<br />

and streets, Winnetkans<br />

and Northfielders can now<br />

find new music traditions<br />

right your own backyard.<br />

AMANDA<br />

I am a master colorist and have been working for Pascal Pour Elle for<br />

8 years. I originally started doing hair because I loved doing updos<br />

and styling, but when I began working at Pascal I assisted in the color<br />

department, quickly realizing I enjoyed the challenge and opportunity<br />

for creativity as a colorist. Throughout the years I have taken a variety<br />

of color classes taught by some of the top companies in the industry<br />

such as Redken and Goldwell and have traveled to California for<br />

Goldwell master color classes. I specialize in gray coverage, balayage,<br />

ombre and color corrections. I love working for Pascal Pour Elle<br />

because I love seeing the happiness I can bring to my clients through<br />

gorgeous hair color. My goal at work every day is to have each of my<br />

clients leave the salon with a smile on their face. In my free time I love<br />

to travel with my husband and friends.<br />

Comedian finds inspiration from fellow jokesters<br />

New Trier alumna<br />

participated in<br />

all-women comedy<br />

fest this month<br />

Emma Palatnik<br />

Editorial Intern<br />

Alexandra Tsarpalas<br />

has always loved comedy.<br />

Her mom even did some<br />

stand-up, so it runs in the<br />

family.<br />

She grew up in Wilmette,<br />

attended McKenzie<br />

Elementary School, Wilmette<br />

Junior High School<br />

and eventually graduated<br />

from New Trier in 1999.<br />

During her time at New<br />

Trier, she had a radio<br />

show at WNTH radio and<br />

was on the Lagniappe-<br />

Potpourri writing staff.<br />

She started doing some<br />

sketch comedy at Indiana<br />

University, and moved to<br />

improv after graduation.<br />

Later, Tsarpalas studied<br />

improv at The Second<br />

City and iO Chicago. It<br />

was after that when she<br />

decided to try stand-up.<br />

“When I got really<br />

burned out on being on<br />

stage with too many people,<br />

I decided I was going<br />

to try stand-up,” Tsarpalas<br />

said.<br />

To train for stand-up<br />

comedy, Tsarpalas took<br />

courses that are run by<br />

the Lincoln Lodge called<br />

“Feminine Comique.” At<br />

the time, the classes were<br />

taught by Cameron Esposito,<br />

who is now doing<br />

comedy in Los Angeles.<br />

She also studied stand-up<br />

at The Second City.<br />

Now, Tsarpalas is a part<br />

of a female comedy group<br />

called The Kates. They<br />

perform once a month at<br />

the Laugh Factory Chicago<br />

and twice a month at<br />

The Book Cellar.<br />

Tsarpalas started doing<br />

sketch comedy at<br />

Indiana University. PHOTO<br />

SUBMITTED<br />

The Kates organization<br />

has an education component<br />

and offers classes<br />

taught by the creator, Kelsie<br />

Huff. Tsarpalas said<br />

they hope to offer more<br />

courses as the group expands.<br />

This summer, the comedian<br />

performed in the 6th<br />

Annual Chicago Women’s<br />

Funny Festival from June<br />

15-18. The four-day festival<br />

had four theaters running<br />

shows simultaneously.<br />

It is the largest of its<br />

kind and is a celebration<br />

of women in all types of<br />

comedy.<br />

On June 16, Tsarpalas<br />

hosted a stand-up slot with<br />

four other women. On<br />

June 18, she was part of a<br />

show called “Mom Genes”<br />

with two of her comedian<br />

friends.<br />

“We host a stand-up<br />

showcase, but we’re in<br />

character,” Tsarpalas said.<br />

“So, we have crazy wigs<br />

and really high pants. It’s<br />

really fun and sort of different,<br />

it’s a sketch and<br />

stand-up hybrid.”<br />

Tsarpalas said she is<br />

lucky to have been a<br />

part of the festival since<br />

its inception and loves<br />

how she is able to watch<br />

all the different comedy<br />

shows.<br />

As a woman in comedy,<br />

Tsarpalas said she<br />

does find there are aspects<br />

of the industry that<br />

under-represent women,<br />

like lineups with only one<br />

woman on them. However,<br />

she said the representation<br />

is improving.<br />

“There are more and<br />

more women doing comedy<br />

and we are just out<br />

there creating spaces for<br />

ourselves,” Tsarpalas<br />

said. “We kind of had to<br />

work our way into these<br />

channels that were maledominated,<br />

and those<br />

were the only channels.<br />

And now it’s expanded,<br />

there’s way more independent<br />

shows.”<br />

According to the comedian,<br />

some of the best<br />

comedy shows in Chicago<br />

are either run by women<br />

or all-female lineups. She<br />

said audiences are supportive<br />

of women in comedy.<br />

“If you make your own<br />

space, then people will actually<br />

pay attention, come<br />

to those shows and then<br />

realize that they need more<br />

women in comedy,” Tsarpalas<br />

said.<br />

She said comedy is<br />

tricky because it is easy to<br />

cross the line, especially<br />

with politics. According<br />

to Tsarpalas, women<br />

have more intuition about<br />

boundaries and there are<br />

men at open mics that<br />

tend to push it beyond the<br />

line.<br />

“But, I guess part of it is<br />

taking the risk if you really<br />

believe in your material<br />

and you think it’s something<br />

that really needs to<br />

be shared with the world<br />

then you go for it,” Tsarpalas<br />

said.<br />

For her style, she draws<br />

from other female comedians.<br />

When she thinks<br />

about it, the list of women<br />

she is inspired by is long.<br />

“Amy Sedaris, I love,<br />

love her, she’s so great.<br />

Even though she’s not<br />

stand up she’s just the right<br />

kind of weird for me,”<br />

Tsarpalas said. “And as far<br />

as standup comics go, Maria<br />

Bamford, she’s really<br />

influential on me.”<br />

She thinks the woman’s<br />

role in comedy is expanding<br />

and people should realize<br />

that female comedians<br />

are talented.<br />

“Women are making a<br />

big difference in comedy<br />

now, and we’re out there,<br />

and we’re good,” Tsarpalas<br />

said.<br />

Regina Dominican<br />

dedicated its stage to Sister<br />

Nancy Murray, O.P.<br />

at her 50th Jubilee Celebration<br />

last month. More than<br />

400 people were in attendance<br />

life to an outstanding<br />

woman of the church<br />

through her dramatic<br />

abilities as an actress,<br />

writer and director. Our<br />

Dominican St. Catherine<br />

portrayed through a onewoman<br />

play that came to<br />

be in demand throughout<br />

our country and even internationally.<br />

Murray began her onewoman<br />

show at her jubilee<br />

celebration until she<br />

was interrupted, to her<br />

surprise, by a loving tribute<br />

by the Regina Dominican<br />

alumnae choir. The<br />

choir sang some of her favorite<br />

songs and adapted<br />

a song in her honor. After<br />

the performance, Murray<br />

was invited back to<br />

the stage to be surprised<br />

once again by an award<br />

Simple as pizza pie<br />

Winnetka’s Pizza<br />

Shoppe focuses on<br />

wood-fired, familyfriendly<br />

eating<br />

Jacqueline Glosniak<br />

Contributing Editor<br />

After 20 years at the<br />

Chicago Board of Trade<br />

became uninteresting and<br />

monotonous, Matt Halack<br />

knew it was time to trade<br />

his career for something<br />

more reflective of his newfound<br />

culinary talents.<br />

Now, nearly five years<br />

after embarking on his<br />

food business journey, the<br />

Kenilworth father of five<br />

is taking the plunge from a<br />

mobile-only catering concept<br />

to his first brick and<br />

mortar restaurant in Winnetka’s<br />

Hubbard Woods<br />

business district.<br />

Halack, who first went<br />

to culinary school in 2005,<br />

had not thought about being<br />

a restaurant owner until<br />

a large-scale catering<br />

opportunity fell into his<br />

lap five years later.<br />

“I liked to cook and never<br />

thought I’d do anything<br />

with [culinary school],” he<br />

said.<br />

After being asked by<br />

his mother-in-law to cater<br />

food for a family birthday<br />

party, Halack got a huge<br />

paella pan to cook in the<br />

backyard. To his surprise,<br />

Halack’s cooking proved<br />

popular, with others asking<br />

if he could cater food for<br />

their events as well.<br />

From there, Halack<br />

told his wife, Sarah, that<br />

he should start an actual<br />

catering business, which<br />

she helped name Grateful<br />

Bites. In 2012, Grateful<br />

Bites was incorporated and<br />

Halack started catering all<br />

kinds of foods as requested<br />

by clients.<br />

After trying his hand catering<br />

a plethora of foods,<br />

Halack decided to specialize<br />

in wood-fired pizzas.<br />

“If I ever did anything,<br />

it was going to be in the<br />

pizza world,” he said.<br />

Halack not only continued<br />

to focus on being a full<br />

service catering company,<br />

but also invested in a mobile<br />

wood-burning oven<br />

so he could travel the area<br />

and use his unique oven to<br />

replicate his special pizza<br />

recipes anywhere for occasions<br />

from dinner parties<br />

to food festivals. Halack<br />

prides himself on cooking<br />

from scratch, using only<br />

fresh and predominantly<br />

locally sourced ingredients,<br />

something that made<br />

his pizza popular for the<br />

past three years at the Wilmette<br />

Farmer’s Market<br />

and the Highwood Evening<br />

Market.<br />

And, after wanting a<br />

permanent location, Halack<br />

and his wife decided<br />

now was the right time to<br />

open in Winnetka, a town<br />

lacking a restaurant with<br />

his pizza’s style but with a<br />

faithful clientele.<br />

“Winnetka has been really<br />

good to us as far as<br />

catering — very welcoming<br />

— and we’ve had a<br />

lot of good business here,”<br />

he said. “We have a lot of<br />

friends in the area we’re<br />

kind of counting on to help<br />

get us through the first few<br />

months.”<br />

With the restaurant’s<br />

prime downtown location<br />

and outdoor eating space,<br />

Halack hopes it will be a<br />

success.<br />

“We’re a family-owned<br />

business, so our focus is<br />

on providing a familyfriendly<br />

experience to our<br />

customers,” Halack said.<br />

Halack is also happy to<br />

be focusing on a smaller,<br />

more specialized menu,<br />

something he says will<br />

help them concentrate on<br />

improving the quality of<br />

the food. He is also relieved<br />

to take a step back<br />

from mobile catering.<br />

“The mobile business<br />

is tough — it’s just very<br />

physical,” he said. “I wanted<br />

to hopefully get it to a<br />

point where I could send it<br />

out without me, which was<br />

a big step for us because<br />

I was pretty hands-on and<br />

it was hard for me to give<br />

that up.”<br />

While still working on<br />

decorating the restaurant,<br />

which opened just this<br />

month, Halack’s goal was<br />

for the place to have a bit<br />

of a rustic look that was<br />

simple, neat and not something<br />

that “looked like a<br />

50- or 60-year-old male<br />

chef designed the restaurant.”<br />

“We’re not designers,<br />

we’re cooks,” Halack said<br />

about recruiting local help<br />

for designing Pizza Shoppe’s<br />

interior.<br />

On a trip last week,<br />

our editorial team got the<br />

chance to try some of the<br />

restaurant’s salads, appetizers<br />

and pizzas.<br />

We started with the arugula<br />

salad ($7 for a small,<br />

$12 for a large) which included<br />

a blend of greens,<br />

onions, tomatoes, Parmesan<br />

cheese and olive<br />

oil. It was a light, healthy<br />

starter filled with just the<br />

right amount of flavor for<br />

a summer favorite.<br />

Next, we tried the white<br />

bean hummus starter ($9),<br />

made with cannellini<br />

beans, homemade giardiniera,<br />

roasted cauliflower<br />

and served alongside Halack’s<br />

homemade dough<br />

lightly sprinkled with olive<br />

oil and Parmesan cheese.<br />

The warm, fluffy dough<br />

made for the perfect dunking<br />

into the rich, smooth<br />

hummus.<br />

From the red pizza<br />

menu, we ate the pepperoni<br />

with hot honey ($15),<br />

made with red marinara<br />

sauce, mozzarella cheese,<br />

pepperoni, hot honey and<br />

chives. Halack takes locally<br />

sourced honey and<br />

steeps it with habanero<br />

peppers. The pizza, while<br />

very tasty, is not spicy and<br />

instead offers a surprising<br />

combination and sweet<br />

complement to an otherwise<br />

basic pizza.<br />

From the white pizza<br />

menu, we tried the elote<br />

($16), made with olive oil,<br />

mozzarella, roasted corn,<br />

mayo, Cotija cheese (a<br />

hard cow’s milk cheese),<br />

cilantro, lime and chili<br />

powder. Halack modeled<br />

this pizza after elotes, a<br />

popular Mexican street<br />

corn snack eaten during<br />

the summer in Chicago.<br />

We were surprised to taste<br />

such a delicious spin on<br />

the food served atop a very<br />

thin pizza crust with melted<br />

cheese.<br />

Arugula salad ($7 small/$12 large) is made with greens,<br />

onions, tomatoes, Parmesan cheese and olive oil.<br />

The white bean hummus starter ($9) has cannellini beans,<br />

homemade giardiniera and roasted cauliflower and is<br />

served with a dough with olive oil and Parmesan cheese.<br />

All pizzas are made in<br />

the restaurant’s special<br />

Mario Acunto stone oven<br />

direct from Italy and using<br />

tomatoes from Bianco<br />

Dinapoli, 100 percent organic<br />

tomatoes from farms<br />

in Yolo County, Calif. As<br />

the months go on, Halack<br />

says he plans on incorporating<br />

pizzas with seasonal<br />

toppings.

the other team) but people<br />

don’t really want to because<br />

you’re on your team<br />

for a year and it’s all your<br />

friends. The positives are<br />

it’s not a lot of movement<br />

so you won’t lose a lot of<br />

your top players to the top<br />

team and you don’t need<br />

to try out for the top team<br />

every year. It creates a<br />

cohesiveness, team community.”<br />

Roche, who plays the<br />

handler position, really<br />

burst onto the scene her<br />

senior year. After taking<br />

a backseat to many of the<br />

upperclassmen last season,<br />

she was looking forward<br />

to helping the team<br />

through a rebuilding year<br />

as a senior captain. That,<br />

however, didn’t end up<br />

coming to fruition as<br />

Eclipse, after qualifying<br />

for the National Championships<br />

by winning its<br />

regional, went 3-0 in pool<br />

play and moved to the<br />

championship bracket as<br />

the three seed. After easily<br />

dispatching st. Olaf in<br />

the quarterfinals, Eclipse<br />

defeated Puget Sound 15-<br />

12 and Wesleyan 13-10 to<br />

win its second title in as<br />

many years.<br />

With her collegiate<br />

playing career over,<br />

Roche now embarks on<br />

a different journey, one<br />

that sees her in the journalism<br />

field. She’ll join<br />

some of her family next<br />

month when she moves<br />

to Minneapolis to get<br />

her career started in the<br />

public radio or nonprofit<br />

world.<br />

That’s not so say she<br />

won’t be giving up throwing<br />

around the disk anytime<br />

soon though.<br />

“There’s a lot of ways to<br />

do that in both Minneapolis<br />

and Chicago,” Roche<br />

said. “In Minneapolis,<br />

specifically, there are club<br />

teams at a bunch of different<br />

levels, fall league and<br />

pickup. It’s pretty easy to<br />

play in most cities, you<br />

just have to find a good<br />

group.”<br />

Athlete of the Week<br />

10 Questions<br />

with Eloise Trout<br />

The New Trier rising<br />

senior will pitch for the<br />

Trevian 18U club team<br />

this summer.<br />

Do you have any<br />

superstitions before,<br />

during or after a<br />

game?<br />

When I’m warming up<br />

to pitch, I keep my earrings<br />

and necklace on for<br />

as long as possible right<br />

before game time. I take<br />

them off right before the<br />

game. I started it this year.<br />

I got used to doing it all the<br />

time during travel season,<br />

when I’m allowed to use<br />

them.<br />

What’s the hardest<br />

part about softball?<br />

The fact that you fail<br />

more than you succeed.<br />

It’s hard mentally to be<br />

able to know that even<br />

though you’re failing,<br />

you’re succeeding and doing<br />

a good job.<br />

When and why did<br />

you start playing<br />

softball?<br />

I started when i was<br />

in third grade. I used to<br />

play T-ball. When I was<br />

younger, starting in kindergarten,<br />

I played T-ball<br />

and thought it was fun because<br />

my dad thought it’d<br />

be a good activity to play<br />

as many sports as possible.<br />

As I got older, I switched<br />

to softball because that’s<br />

what all the girls my age<br />

were doing.<br />

What’s your favorite<br />

restaurant on the<br />

North Shore?<br />

Stacked and folded. I<br />

always get the Ahi Tuna<br />

salad.<br />

If you could travel<br />

anywhere in the world,<br />

where would it be?<br />

I’d go on an African safari<br />

because I’d like to see<br />

all the animals in their habitat.<br />

It’d be cool to sleep in<br />

a tent out there too.<br />

If you could have<br />

dinner with anyone,<br />

who would it be?<br />

Mike Trout. Everybody<br />

always asks if I’m his relative<br />

and we’re very distant<br />

cousins so I think it’d be<br />

cool to talk to a baseball<br />

player everybody asks<br />

about.<br />

What’s been your<br />

favorite moment at<br />

New Trier?<br />

Going to the Winnetka<br />

campus and being able<br />

to be upperclassmen and<br />

making new friends that<br />

are both older and younger<br />

than me.<br />

If you could have one<br />

superpower, what<br />

would it be?<br />

To fly. You can get places<br />

really fast and you don’t<br />

have to go to the airport to<br />

travel places.<br />

22CM FILE PHOTO<br />

What’s the best part<br />

about being a New<br />

Trier athlete?<br />

Everybody is so supportive<br />

of each other, of<br />

everybody else’s sport.<br />

My friends come out and<br />

watch my games. And<br />

it’s nice to be busy after<br />

school, knowing you<br />

have something to do once<br />

school is over.<br />

What’s the best<br />

coaching advice you’ve<br />

ever gotten?<br />

To control what you can<br />

control. Everything else is<br />

just going to happen. You<br />

can’t control the umps, just<br />

what you can control. Focus<br />

on what you can do to make<br />

the game a better game. Our<br />

assistant, Dave Snyder, gave<br />

me that advice.<br />

Going Places<br />

DeGuzman ready to compete at Lawrence<br />

Michael Wojtychiw<br />

Sports Editor<br />

For many high school<br />

basketball players, earning<br />

a college scholarship is<br />

part of the dream. Not only<br />

will the scholarship help<br />

them continue to play the<br />

game they love at the next<br />

level, it will also allow<br />

them to get their education<br />

paid for, something that<br />

will help not only them,<br />

but their family as well.<br />

Some players, like<br />

Loyola Academy’s Julian<br />

DeGuzman, have that<br />

dream from a young age<br />

and love to see it come to<br />

fruition.<br />

“I’ve always thought<br />

that to be honest,“ he said.<br />

“I knew that’s what I wanted<br />

to do and kept working<br />

as hard as I could so that<br />

day came.”<br />

DeGuzman, who will be<br />

attending Lawrence University<br />

in Appleton, Wisc.,<br />

got his start at a young age<br />

playing at Loyola Park in<br />

Chicago’s Rogers Park<br />

neighborhood. Coincidentally,<br />

he played with future<br />

teammates Ramar Evans<br />

and Matt Lynch at Loyola<br />

Park. Now all three will be<br />

attending college next season<br />

on basketball scholarships<br />

as Evans will be at<br />

the University of Wisconsin-Parkside<br />

and Lynch at<br />

St. Norbert.<br />

“We’ve always had a<br />

strong bond so that helped<br />

me as I got into Loyola and<br />

helped us become a better<br />

team because we were<br />

able to make that type of<br />

bond with the rest of our<br />

teammates,” DeGuzman<br />

said. “We talked about<br />

how it was crazy that we<br />

all started at Loyola Park,<br />

then played at Loyola and<br />

now we’re all playing college<br />

basketball in the same<br />

What’s this?<br />

Going Places is a summer feature series<br />

spotlighting local student-athletes ready to<br />

continue their athletic and academic careers<br />

at the collegiate level. One Going Places article<br />

will run each week throughout the summer. To<br />

nominate or recommend a student-athlete for the<br />

series, email Sports Editor Michael Wojtychiw at<br />

state. It’s almost like we<br />

can’t get rid of each other.”<br />

Because the Ramblers<br />

were more guard-oriented<br />

this season, DeGuzman,<br />

who stands 6-foot-<br />

2, got a chance to play<br />

down low in the post for<br />

the majority of the year,<br />

something he feels made<br />

him a better all-around<br />

player and will help prepare<br />

him for the next level<br />

of his career.<br />

“I know I’m going to be<br />

on the wing a lot but the<br />

coaches at Lawrence said<br />

that the way they run their<br />

offense, I’ll be down in<br />

the post as well,” DeGuzman<br />

said. “It’s a chance for<br />

me to use both parts of the<br />

game for me, both inside<br />

and outside.<br />

“I improved my toughness<br />

while at Loyola. I<br />

came in as a freshman and<br />

was kind of soft and now<br />

I feel like I’ve become<br />

mentally and physically<br />

tougher. My jump shot<br />

improved as well. I feel<br />

like I grew in almost every<br />

aspect and I have to thank<br />

coach [Tom] Livatino and<br />

all the other staff members<br />

for that. They saw the potential<br />

in me and did everything<br />

they could to get<br />

the best out of me.”<br />

Despite not knowing<br />

what he plans on studying<br />

after he graduates Loyola,<br />

DeGuzman felt that Lawrence<br />

was the place for<br />

him and would help him<br />

develop more. He chose<br />

the Vikings over Knox<br />

College, Wabash College,<br />

Denison and Loras College<br />

and will look to lead<br />

them to the NCAA Tournament<br />

for the first time<br />

since 2009.<br />

“Lawrence is getting<br />

a hard-worker, a kid that<br />

can play both inside and<br />

is starting to develop an<br />

outside game and is a team<br />

player, most importantly,”<br />

DeGuzman said. “I took<br />

my time making my decision<br />

and decided that Lawrence<br />

was the best choice<br />

for me. The coaches really<br />

made me feel wanted, kept<br />

checking in on me, made<br />

me feel like they really<br />

wanted me to be a part of<br />

the team.”<br />

DeGuzman, who was a<br />

Team 22 First Team member<br />

and an All-Conference<br />

player in the Catholic<br />

League, averaged nine<br />

points and five rebounds<br />

this season. He gained<br />

more confidence as the<br />

year went along, especially<br />

after seeing his playing<br />

time increase from last<br />

season.<br />

“Being out on the court<br />

more has allowed to me<br />

get a lot of different looks<br />

both offensively and defensively<br />

from other<br />

teams,” he said. “Getting<br />

out there on the court<br />

helped me more.”<br />

Team 22: baseball<br />

Welcome to 22nd Century Media’s All-Area team: Team 22. Thanks to help from area coaches and<br />

the eyes of 22nd Century Media staff, the best players were selected from six high schools — New<br />

and Highland Park (HP) — in our coverage area.<br />

FIRST TEAM<br />

Catcher<br />

Cam Redding, NT junior<br />

• Redding hit .422 during<br />

his junior season, helping<br />

the Trevians to an extended<br />

playoff run. He finished the<br />

year with 26 RBI and an<br />

on-base percentage that<br />

hovered a shade below<br />

.500.<br />

First Base<br />

Anthony Calcaro, NT junior<br />

• The Northwestern University<br />

commit hit .356 with an<br />

OPS of 1.091 this season,<br />

Second Base<br />

Henry Singer, HP senior<br />

• Singer led the Giants<br />

in hitting during the 2017<br />

campaign, batting .418<br />

with 23 stolen bases and<br />

.586. The Central Suburban<br />

year.<br />

SECOND TEAM<br />

Catcher<br />

Hikaru Ozone, GBN<br />

senior<br />

First Base<br />

Charlie Reinkemeyer, LF<br />

senior<br />

Second Base<br />

Thomas Witty, GBN<br />

senior<br />

Third Base<br />

Cameron Pauly, GBS senior<br />

• Team MVP Pauly did it all<br />

for the Titans in 2017. The<br />

CSL All-Conference selection<br />

moved from shortstop to<br />

third base when needed,<br />

hit a team-leading .382 and<br />

scored 20 runs. He became<br />

the team’s closer during the<br />

season as well.<br />

Outfield<br />

Tyler Gussis, HP junior<br />

• Gussis hit .353 this<br />

season with a team-high<br />

30 RBI and helped the<br />

Giants to a CSL North<br />

Championship. He scored<br />

23 times and his patience<br />

was on full display with 20<br />

walks.<br />

Shortstop<br />

Caleb Durbin, LF junior<br />

• Durbin hit a ridiculous .500<br />

for the Scouts this season in<br />

100 at-bats and had eight<br />

doubles, three triples and two<br />

home runs. He successfully<br />

stole 29 bases without getting<br />

thrown out once and was<br />

named to the North Suburban<br />

Conference All-Conference<br />

team.<br />

Outfield<br />

Conor Nash, GBS junior<br />

• Nash’s .341 batting average<br />

was second best on the team.<br />

With an on-base percentage<br />

of over .400 and with a teamhigh<br />

26 RBI in 2017, he made<br />

a formidable 1-2 combination<br />

with Pauly for the Titans.<br />

Outfield<br />

Brad Czerniejewski, LF<br />

senior<br />

• The speedy outfielder<br />

with a rocket arm moved<br />

from right field to center<br />

rejoin former teammate Cal<br />

Coughlin on the team at<br />

Texas Christian University.<br />

Designated Hitter<br />

Paul Turelli, LF senior<br />

sides of the battery for Lake<br />

52 as a pitcher over 38<br />

Ryan Morrison, GBS<br />

junior<br />

Tommy Maher, GBS<br />

senior<br />

Jack Arnstein, HP senior<br />

Pitcher<br />

Tommy Gertner, GBN senior<br />

• The Spartans had a<br />

young team this season<br />

and looked to the talented<br />

three-pitch southpaw with<br />

an outstanding split-finger<br />

fastball to be their ace one<br />

more. Gertner delivered the<br />

goods again this season and<br />

earned a spot on the CSL<br />

All-Conference team.<br />

Pitcher<br />

P.J. McKermitt, LA junior<br />

• The left-hander had<br />

an increased role for the<br />

Ramblers this season and<br />

helped Loyola to a 22-13<br />

record. Along with teammate<br />

and Rambler shortstop Ryan<br />

Lin-Peistrup, McKermitt<br />

was voted to the 2017<br />

Chicago Catholic League All-<br />

Conference team.<br />

Pitcher<br />

Thomas Nugent, NT senior<br />

• Nugent helped carry<br />

the Trevians to the state<br />

semifinals this season. With<br />

a 12-1 record and miniscule<br />

0.91 ERA in 69 innings<br />

pitched, he struck out 50<br />

while only walking nine and<br />

earned a spot on the CSL<br />

All-Conference team.<br />

Yalowitz eyes 2018 MLB draft after dominant collegiate season<br />

Michael Wojtychiw, Sports Editor<br />

When Jack Yalowitz entered<br />

the University of Illinois at<br />

Urbana-Champaign last year,<br />

he walked into a great situation<br />

that allowed him to get an<br />

ample amount of playing time<br />

as a freshman. After playing<br />

in 43 games, with 41 starts, he<br />

embarked on becoming a better<br />

ballplayer.<br />

That offseason transition<br />

helped Yalowitz, a 2015 Loyola<br />

Academy graduate, improve so<br />

much that he was named to the<br />

All-Big Ten First Team this year.<br />

“What I can attribute the<br />

breakout is to a lot of hard<br />

work and the help of my teammates<br />

and coaches,” he said. “I<br />

couldn’t be there without them<br />

and they helped me blossom into<br />

the player I am.<br />

“The biggest thing from last<br />

year to this year was mental.<br />

I changed my approach to the<br />

game. I was hesitant my freshman<br />

year, afraid to make mistakes.<br />

This year I just went out<br />

and played baseball and had fun<br />

with it. I have this quiet confidence<br />

that I carried throughout<br />

the entire season.”<br />

The rising junior finished the<br />

year with a .335 average, 42 runs<br />

scored, nine doubles, three triples,<br />

12 home runs, 44 RBI and<br />

10 stolen bases. Yalowitz was<br />

the only college baseball player<br />

in the country to hit at least .355<br />

with 12 or more home runs and<br />

10 or more steals.<br />

“It’s something you don’t realize<br />

or think about until the season<br />

ends and when that stat came<br />

out, I sat down and realized it<br />

was pretty humbling because I<br />

had no idea that had happened.”<br />

For the past two summers,<br />

Yalowitz has participated in the<br />

Northwoods League, a summer<br />

baseball league made up of<br />

teams from Wisconsin, Michigan<br />

and Minnesota. There are<br />

“I brought my wife home from the<br />

hospital after surgery—<br />

Make Every Bath<br />

a Safe Bath<br />

University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign’s Jack Yalowitz takes<br />

a swing against the University of Maryland May 5 in Champaign.<br />

ILLINOIS ATHLETICS<br />

more than 40 summer baseball<br />

leagues, all across the country,<br />

made up of all college players<br />

who are looking to improve<br />

their game while also making a<br />

name for themselves in the eyes<br />

of professional scouts. Yalowitz<br />

has played both seasons for the<br />

Kenosha Kingfish and has gotten<br />

off to a hot start, hitting .313<br />

with 21 hits and 16 runs scored<br />

through 17 games.<br />

“Last year I was put on a<br />

team in the league as well and<br />

last summer I played there for<br />

a month or so and was going to<br />

Yalowitz said. “A lot of my club<br />

teammates from high school<br />

were playing on this team and<br />

it’s got some of the best players<br />

in the country, so I’m really<br />

enjoying it right now. My summer<br />

season has been relatively<br />

similar to my spring season. I’ve<br />

been hitting well, have a homer,<br />

am feeling good.”<br />

For many college ball players,<br />

being drafted in the Major league<br />

Baseball Draft is the dream. With<br />

the draft completed, Yalowitz<br />

will once again be eligible to be<br />

drafted since he will have fulfilled<br />

Major League Baseball’s<br />

requirement of playing three<br />

years of collegiate baseball.<br />

“That’d be awesome,” Yalowitz<br />

said. “That’s the dream.”<br />

If he continues to improve at<br />

the rate he has, the Chicago native<br />

who started playing ball at<br />

six might be hearing his name<br />

early on in the 2018 MLB Draft.<br />

Growing up, Leah<br />

Roche was a soccer<br />

player. The Wilmette native<br />

played all the way<br />

through her junior year at<br />

New Trier and was ready<br />

to play club while at Carleton<br />

College in Northfield,<br />

Minnesota. But that<br />

plan changed in the winter<br />

of her freshman year.<br />

“Soccer inside is super<br />

not fun so I started playing<br />

frisbee and it’s huge<br />

at Carleton,” Roche said.<br />

“Everybody gets a frisbee<br />

when you come to Carleton.<br />

“I started playing on<br />

a team that was really<br />

low key and I played that<br />

through my freshman<br />

year. A lot of my friends<br />

were playing frisbee so it<br />

seemed like something I<br />

could get good at quickly.<br />

It’s one of the few sports<br />

where you can start playing<br />

in college and play at<br />

a very high level.”<br />

From that first day of<br />

frisbee grew a love for a<br />

sport that saw Roche just<br />

complete her collegiate<br />

career by being named<br />

the first-ever Division III<br />

Women’s National Player<br />

of the Year, all after helping<br />

lead her team Carleton<br />

College - Eclipse to its<br />

second consecutive Division<br />

III national title.<br />

“This year we wanted<br />

to focus on our fundamentals,”<br />

she said. “We knew<br />

we weren’t going to play<br />

really pretty frisbee but<br />

Carleton’s Leah Roche looks to pass during the 2017 Ultimate Frisbee National Championships May 20-21 in<br />

Lexington, Ky. Jolie J Lang – UltiPhotos<br />

we wanted everyone to<br />

catch and throw. Last year<br />

we had a really good top<br />

half of our team and underdeveloped<br />

bottom half,<br />

so our goal this year was<br />

to spread that out a little<br />

more because we lost a lot<br />

of top players from last<br />

year.<br />

“I was pretty surprised<br />

in that I’m not the best<br />

player in DIII women’s ultimate<br />

but I’m also lucky<br />

to have a really good team<br />

surrounding me. I was<br />

initially surprised and<br />

couldn’t really believe it. I<br />

was able to win the award<br />

necause I got to play with<br />

such great players.”<br />

Unlike, say men’s or<br />

women’s basketball,<br />

football, volleyball or<br />

soccer, ultimate frisbee<br />

isn’t an NCAA sport, so<br />

everything is run by the<br />

members of the club under<br />

the sanctioning body<br />

of USA Ultimate. Ultimate<br />

frisbee is such a big<br />

thing at Carleton, Roche<br />

says, that some students<br />

even come to the school<br />

just to play on the frisbee<br />

team. Carleton is the only<br />

school in the country to<br />

have teams at both the<br />

Division I and Division<br />

III levels for both men<br />

and women.<br />

Usually two main differences<br />

separate the<br />

teams: experience and<br />

opponents. The women’s<br />

Division I team, Syzygy,<br />

often has players who<br />

are more experienced and<br />

will face teams such as<br />

Stanford, Texas and Ohio<br />

State, while eclipse, the<br />

Division III team, will<br />

play schools such as St.<br />

Olaf, Williams and Wesleyan.”<br />

“It’s not like an A and<br />

a B team,” Roche said.<br />

“Once you’re on a team,<br />

you’re on a team for<br />

however long you’re in<br />

school. I tried out for<br />

Eclipse my sophomore<br />

year and knew for the<br />

next three years I’d be on<br />

Eclipse and wouldn’t try<br />

out for Syzygy.<br />
