Learning about safety 

was the name of the game 

at the annual Lake Bluff 

Public Safety Day, Saturday, 

Sept. 15 at the Lake 

Bluff Public Safety Building. 

The Public Safety event 

has been a tradition in 

Lake Bluff for approximately 

10 years, according 

to Nancy Gusterine, 

the fire department executive 

assistant. 

“[The Public Safety 

Day] is a way for us to 

show the village residents 

all about safety and do 

demonstrations to show 

what we do,” Gusterine 

said. “This is a great public 

event for residents to 

come in and talk to fire 

and police departments 

and get a feel for what we 

do.” 

While the day was filled 

with a variety of fun children’s 

activities, it attracted 

and was beneficial for 

both children and adults. 

The event showcased 

vehicles from each of 

the fire, police and public 

works departments, as

demonstrations that save 

lives and execute essential 

public services on a daily 

basis. 

Among the many demonstrations, 

was a fire 

demonstration where two 

burn trailers were placed 

side by side and one contained 

a sprinkler and the 

other did not. 

Gusterine said the purpose 

of this demonstration 

was to show the importance 

of sprinkler systems. 

Other demonstrations 

included watching a police 

dog in action to showcase 

what police dogs are 

used for, how a diver assists 

with rescue missions 

and more. 

A crowd-pleasing attraction 

was the landing 

of a Flight for Life Helicopter 

at Artesian Park. 

Gusterine said the landing 

of the helicopter was used 

to demonstrate what medical 

care is used in extreme 

emergency situations. 

Children of all ages 

enjoyed exploring fire 

trucks, public works vehicles 

and police squad cars. 

The fire department also 

offered an obstacle course 

and supplied a fire pole for 

children to slide down. 

The free event not only 

welcomed the landing of 

a helicopter, but also free 

food and refreshments 

provided by the Metropolitan 

Emergency Support 

Service, a volunteer run 

organization that provides 

support to on-scene emergency 

personnel. 

While the event offered a 

variety of fun activities for 

children, Gusterine noted 

its purpose was to provide 

safety information to children 

and adults alike. 

“A lot of time the event 

is aimed toward the kids, 

to help get kids used to 

first responders so they 

are not afraid if they ever 

come into contact with 

first responders,” Gusterine 

said. “But, the event 

also has good information 

for adults as well.”

Lead levels exceeding 

federal standards were 

found in the soil near Moffett 

Road, delaying planned 

sidewalk and gutter repairs 

to the end of September, according 

to Lake Bluff Village 

Engineer Jeff Hansen. 

Hansen updated the Village 

Board on the Moffett 

Road Replacement Project 

at its meeting Monday, 

Sept. 10, saying the detected 

levels cause no reason 

for concern and are being 

further investigated by contractors. 

Disposal plans are also in 

progress, he added. 

“It’s not (that) you can’t 

touch the soil because it’s 

so contaminated, but it 

falls into that category, now 

we’ve been asked to go in 

that way per the federal requirements,” 

Hansen said.

Protection Agency’s standard

THE HIGHLAND PARK LANDMARK 

Study finds increased 

marijuana use among 

Deerfield and Highland 

Park teens 

Teens in Deerfield and 

Highland Park are increasingly 

using marijuana — 

and at higher rates than 

the Lake County average, 

according to a recent biennial 

state survey. 

About 61 percent of 

Deerfield High School seniors 

reported using marijuana 

at least once in the 

past 30 days, when asked 

in the spring for the 2018 

Illinois Youth Survey, 

in play areas is 400 parts 

per million by weight and 

1,200 parts per million for 

non-play areas, which also 

applies to cleanup projects 

using federal funds such as 

the Moffett Road Culvert 

Replacement Project. 

“We tend to think it’s 

just something in the air 

that’s settling down over 

the years,” Hansen said. “I 

don’t think the action level 

is very high on that.” 

A month-long closure of 

Moffett Road will begin 

the last week of September, 

with advanced warning 

signs posted in the coming 

week, Hansen said. The 

detour will be an official Illinois 

Department of Transportation 

route using state 

roadways to move traffic to 

Sheridan Road. 

Residents will have access 

to their homes from 

either direction, since the 

closure will be the route 

over the ravine area, Hansen 

added. 

“Chief (David) Graf has 

compared to 58 percent 

of Highland Park High 

School seniors. 

The Lake County average 

was 26 percent, raising 

questions at the Board 

of Education meeting on 

Tuesday, Sept. 11, as to 

why numbers at Township 

High School District 113

The figure at Deerfield 

High School, in particular, 

spiked from 41 to 61 percent 

from 2016 to 2018. 

The survey is typically 

given to eighth-, tenth- and 

twelfth-graders across Illinois,

responding partners to make 

sure they know how to get

The planned repairs 

near Moffett Road and the 

ravine are part of the project’s 

third and final phase, 

which will be paid using 80 

percent federal funds ($1 

million) and 20 percent local 

funds ($250,000). The 

federal funds were secured 

through the Surface Transportation 

Program. 

Prior phases include a 

Phase I engineering and 

environmental study completed 

with approval from 

the Illinois Department of 

Transportation in the fall 

of 2017 a Phase II final engineering 

design was completed 

and approved in the 

spring of 2018. 

Both phases were contracted 

with Baxter & 

Woodman Inc., of Crystal 

Lake, and cost the Village 

nearly $1 million — 

$57,700 for Phase I and 

$35,000 for Phase II. 

“Based on 20 years of 

research in a lot of different 

communities, the more 

affluent the community is, I 

think there are more opportunities,” 

said Greg Barker, 

director of testing services 

and academic affairs research 

support at Northern 

Illinois University. “There 

is more parent acceptance 

and even expectations to experiment.” 

Such attitudes are apparent 

when looking at 

the percentage of students 

who think their parents 

would disapprove of them

New head of school at LFCDS ready to take on new year 

Alyssa Groh, Editor 

The independent school 

system has always been 

part of Joy Hurd’s life, 

and when he was offered 

a position as the new head 

of school at Lake Forest 

Country Day School he 

could not turn it down. 

And with accepting a new 

job comes big change — 

new state, new house and 

new school. 

Making the decision 

to completely change his 

family’s life was easy for 

Hurd. 

“[The area and Lake 

Forest Country Day 

School] seemed to have a 

lot of the ingredients I was 

looking for, even in the 

early stages before I really 

got to know the school,” 

Hurd said. 

Hurd’s passion for 

teaching and being in an 

independent school setting, 

started when he was 

a high school student in 

his hometown outside of 

Cleveland. 

“I was really inspired by 

my high school teachers 

in every which way actually,” 

Hurd said. “I never 

would have considered 

becoming a teacher until I 

went to high school.” 

Hurd said his teachers 

in high school impacted 

him to pursue a career in 

education for a variety of 

reasons. 

“With my high school 

teachers it was so clear 

that they were so passionate 

about what they were 

doing, and it was almost 

a calling,” Hurd said. 

But his desire to follow 

their footsteps was deeper 

than noticing their passion. 

It was seeing his 

teachers be there as a mentor 

that made him want to 

be a mentor to other students 

in the future. 

After high school, Hurd 

went on to study at Harvard 

College, where he 

earned a degree in classics. 

His teaching career began 

at St. Peter’s in New 

York City where he taught 

Greek and Latin. A few 

years later he moved onto 

St. Bernard’s School in 

New York City, where he 

taught Latin, English and 

ancient history in addition 

being a secondary school 

advisor. 

It was during that time 

he developed a passion for 

advising and helping students 

with figuring out the 

next stage of their lives. 

“[Being a secondary 

school advisor] was a 

great step in my professional 

journey because 

it opened my gaze to the 

larger independent school 

world,” Hurd said. 

Going through the independent 

school world 

as a student, and now as 

an educator, Hurd valued 

what independent schools 

were able to do. 

“I think the way the 

independent schools can 

pursue their missions and 

define their own mission is 

really empowering,” Hurd 

said. “I think that working 

with a community that 

sets its course with core 

values in place is a really 

neat thing. What I think it 

enables to happen among 

independent schools, is 

they all sort of have different 

characters in very 

pronounced ways.” 

Hurd also noted that he 

most enjoyed getting to 

know families and students 

on a different level 

as an advisor and helping 

them find the best secondary 

school for their individual 

needs. 

While he earned his 

master’s degree in private 

school leadership 

from Teachers College 

at Columbia University, 

he served part-time at 

Riverdale Country School 

in New York as a Latin 

teacher and as assistant 

director of middle and upper 

school admissions. 

And then another opportunity 

came his way 

in 2014, and Hurd became 

the director of upper 

school at The Buckley 

School in New York City. 

While Hurd credits 

his time at Buckley 

as a “great professional 

step forward,” he began 

searching for more and 

came across Lake Forest 

Country Day School. 

A midwestern-man at 

heart, he was drawn to 

moving back to the Midwest 

as he and his wife 

have plans to start a family 

in the near future. He 

was looking for a place 

that would give him more 

space and more fresh air, 

while also having access 

to a large city, Lake Forest 

seemed like the perfect 

place. 

As the interview process 

began and he became 

more familiar with the 

school, he noted that his 

philosophy aligned with 

LFCDS. 

“When you first enter a 

search like this, you start 

to encounter the way a 

school talks about itself,” 

Hurd said. “And a lot of 

the language in Lake Forest 

Country Day School’s 

mission resonated with 

me.” 

What he loved most 

about the school’s mission, 

“Inspired teaching, 

academic rigor, attention 

to individual needs, a 

commitment to responsible 

citizenship—these 

principles infuse every 

aspect of life at Lake Forest 

Country Day School 

and define our dedication 

to producing students of 

strong character with a 

Joy Hurd (center), the new head of school at Lake Forest Country Day School, 

shows some school pride with students at the beginning of the 2018-19 school 

year. Photos submitted 

passion for learning,” was 

the key concepts that were 

right at the outset of the 

statement. The concepts 

most important to him 

when he was searching 

for a school, which also 

aligned with his philosophy, 

were inspired teaching, 

attention to individual 

needs, academic rigor 

and making every child 

feel known and loved. 

“Everything I had read 

about what 21st century 

education should have is 

already going on here,” 

Hurd said. “I was almost 

overwhelmed in a way.” 

Now that his first year as 

the new head of school at 

Lake Forest Country Day 

school is underway, Hurd 

said he plans to get to 

know the students, parents 

and faculty at LFCDS. 

“I am going to make it a 

very deliberate goal to be 

in the classrooms, at lunch 

and learn as much as I can 

about the magic that goes 

on here,” Hurd said. 

Joy Hurd began his new position as the head of school 

at Lake Forest Country Day School on July 1.

From the Editor 

Public Safety Day more than a ‘fun’ event 

Alyssa Groh 


I 

hope you did not flip 

right past this week’s 

cover of The Lake 

Forest Leader. 

This past weekend, 

Lake Bluff held its annual 

Public Safety Day. Lake 

Bluff’s Public Safety Day 

brings a variety of fire 

tricks, ambulance trucks, 

cop cars and public works 

trucks to the event for kids 

to explore and see what 

the inside looks like. 

For little kids who 

dream of being a police 

officer, or a firefighter, this 

day may have only created 

more excitement and passion 

to make their dream 

come true later on in life. 

Children and their parents 

had the opportunity 

to learn about all things 

public safety. What does 

a police officer really 

do? How do firefighters 

put out fires? What does 

public works do? 

The list is endless. 

And while this was a 

day of fun and learning 

for local families, it had 

a deeper meaning, in my 

opinion. 

Police officers, firefighters 

and public works staff 

are an essential part to our 

community. 

Each and every day police 

officers and firefighters 

work hard to keep Lake 

Forest and Lake Bluff safe 

communities. The men 

and women who serve our 

community work 365 days 

a year to keep our community 

safe and be there when 

we need them. 

It is without these workers, 

our community would 

not run as smoothly as it 

does. 

Over the past few years 

as editor of The Lake Forest 

Leader, I have spoken 

to our firefighters, police 

officer and public works 

staff on a variety of occasions. 

While I may not see 

them every single day, I 

do have the opportunity 

to speak to them over the 

phone frequently. And 

from the time I have spent 

with them on the phone, it 

is very clear how committed 

they are to their jobs, 

to help make Lake Forest 

and Lake Bluff a better and 

safe place for us all. 

For these workers, it 

is more than wearing 

uniforms, riding in large 

trucks with sirens and hosting 

fun Safety Day events. 

Their job never ends and 

their jobs are demanding 

and hard. 

So, if you happen to 

see a public works staff 

member, police officer or 

firefighter around town, 

stop and thank them for all 

they do to keep our communities 

running. 

For me, their hard work 

and dedication does not go 

unnoticed. 

Lake Forest will host 

its Public Safety Day 11 

a.m.-2 p.m. Sept. 23 at the 

Public Safety Building.

LakeForestLeader.com LIFE & ARTS 


Dancers bring innovation, audience engagement to Ragdale event 

Katie Copenhaver 


The Ragdale Foundation 

in Lake Forest completed 

this year’s Ring Series 

with Dance-Scape on Saturday, 

Sept. 15. It was one 

of four public performances 

held in the mansion’s 

backyard using the temporary 

ring installation. 

Curated by choreographer/dancer 

Kristina Isabelle, 

it brought together 

actors and dancers from 

Hubbard Street Pre-Professional 

Program and 

Walkabout Theater Company. 

According to Ragdale 

Executive Director Jeffrey 

Meeuwsen, the purpose 

of the Ring Series 

is threefold: to recognize 

Ragdale’s rich cultural history, 

encourage new artistic 

creation and engage the 

public. He noted during 

his introduction that the 

series takes place using a 

ring installation because 

when Howard Van Doren 

Shaw originally built the 

house and designed the 

grounds for his family, 

his playwright wife held 

public performances in the 

original ring space. 

This year’s winning 

design for the grounds is 

Noodle Soup by Columbus, 

Ohio-based architects 

Galo Canizares and Stephanie 

Sang Delgado, and 

it was installed in June. It 

consists of several vertical 

structures covered in green 

and yellow artificial turf 

that have slopes, steps and 

windows (or holes). 

“The intent of this installation 

was to have the 

audience and performers 

moving around and interacting 

with the structures,” 

Meeuwsen said. 

That’s why they invited 

Ragdale alumna Kristina 

Isabelle to curate this 

show. Through her company, 

Kristina Isabelle 

Dance, she is currently 

working on “site-specific 

performances bringing the 

audience into nature with 

movement, video, sound 

and food,” per the website. 

“Dance-Scape was not 

only about the interaction 

with the ring and all of 

the fabulous performers 

and costumes,” Isabelle 

said. “It was also about the 

idea of transformation and 

spreading joy. I was looking 

at the ideas of the ring 

designers and their concepts 

of fun and play, and 

I took it to another level.” 

In the beginning, one 

dancer slid around on the 

installation’s structures 

and popped through the 

windows, sometimes startling 

audience members. 

Isabelle called her The 

Seeker. Five actor/dancers 

in bright pink and orange 

costumes on stilts who 

charged through the space 

with a sense of purpose 

were The Guides. The 

dancers in typical attire 

of tank tops and leggings 

were Us, Isabelle said. 

Next, the dancers cycled 

in and out of the ring returning 

in different costumes. 

There was a bird 

sequence with a couple 

of dancers in bird costumes 

perching on top of 

the ring’s structures and 

the accompanist drummer 

wearing a bird mask. They 

were followed by a group 

of invaders: insects, aliens 

and birds of prey. 

After that came a mixture 

of animal-inspired 

costumes, from a unicorn 

to several dancers wearing 

hats or crowns with antlers 

and goat horns. 

Then, Isabelle and the 

dancers moved all the 

noodle cushions into a 

circle and invited the audience 

to sit on them while 

the accompanist cellist 

played a solo in the center. 

After that, the audience 

members joined the 

performance by sitting or 

climbing on the structures 

and joining in the dances.

William Corson 

Ellis 

William Corson 

Ellis, formerly of Lake 

Forest, died at home on 

Aug. 27. Titia, his wife of 

sixty-one years, was by his 

side. Born March 4, 1932 

at the Presbyterian Hospital 

in Chicago, Ellis was 

raised in Lake Forest. 

He was the youngest of 

four sons, brothers Thorne, 

Corson, and David, parents 

Roberta Thorne and 

George Corson Ellis. Ellis 

attended Lake Forest 

Country Day School. In 

1950, he graduated from 

Phillips Exeter Academy, 

where he found his love 

for athletics and singing. 

He grew up spending summers 

at the Thorne family 

camp in Canada on Lake 

Huron just outside Desbarats, 

Ontario. As a graduate 

of Yale University in 1954, 

Ellis received a commission 

as a second lieutenant 

in the U.S. Air Force 

through ROTC training. 

He received his wings in 

1955 and was assigned to 

Laredo Air Force Base in 

Texas where he was the 

Base Public Information 

Officer. Flying was one 

of Ellis’s passions. He 

became a squadron commander 

and continued to 

fly single engine jet aircraft. 

During this time, he 

began courting the love of 

his life, Titia. To fulfill his 

necessary flight hours, he 

would fly in to various locations 

to meet her. At the 

Glenview Naval Air Station, 

she would drive up 

onto the tarmac which one 

could do in those days and 

pick Ellis up as he stepped 

out of the cockpit. By the 

end of his Air Force career, 

Ellis had reached the rank 

of Captain. In June 1957, 

upon returning to Chicago, 

Ellis and Titia married. 

There followed a career 

in business - first in manufacturing 

and finance, followed 

by investment and 

British merchant banking. 

He and Titia had three 

children David (b. 1958), 

Robin (b. 1960) and Billy 

(b. 1961). In 1976, Ellis 

left the business world to 

return to school. He and 

his wife both enrolled in 

the doctorate program in 

counseling Psychology at 

Northwestern University, 

where they received their 

PhDs in 1982. For the next 

fourteen years, Ellis and 

Titia each had their own 

private clinical practice as 

well as a joint family practice 

in the Chicago area. 

Ellis taught at the Lake 

Forest Graduate School 

of Management 1985-90, 

where he discovered he 

had a natural gift in the 

classroom. He loved teaching 

and connecting with 

the students and they loved 

and respected him. They 

moved to Santa Fe, N.M. 

in 1990, allowing Titia to 

concentrate on writing a 

book and Ellis to focus on 

painting oil landscapes and 

continuing their love of 

singing. In 2001, Ellis and 

Titia moved to Woodstock, 

Vermont, to be closer to 

their daughter Robin and 

her family. They quickly 

fell in love with Woodstock, 

becoming members 

of the Universalist Unitarian 

church and singing in 

the choir. Ellis continued 

his love of painting, leaving 

behind an impressive 

collection of beautiful oil 

landscapes. Summer visits 

to Desbarats on Lake 

Huron continued: a magical 

place he loved to share 

with Titia, and the next 

two generations. He often 

talked about his mother, 

who taught her sons that 

there was a world to see 

and explore, that it was 

never too late to learn new 

things, and to always follow 

your dreams. 

Ellis is survived by his 

wife, Titia Ellis, three children 

and eleven grandchildren. 

David Ellis (Myra 

Platt) of Seattle, Wash., 

and Dave’s kids Bailey and 

Ruby, and stepson, Wilson.

The black sheep of Glenview 

New boba tea shop 

adds new twists to 

popular concept 

Brittany Kapa 

Contributing Sports Editor 

Glenview’s Boba Club 

knows it may be a black 

sheep, but owner Steve Ha 

is OK with that. 

Ha’s latest business venture, 

Boba Club, even dons 

a black sheep on its logo 

— a subtle way of letting 

the community know his 

place does things a little 

differently. 

Ha, an avid boba tea 

drinker, would frequent his 

local boba tea shop with 

his wife three or four times 

a week. One day, as Ha 

looked around, he noticed 

the constant line of guests 

waiting outside the door. 

And, he then realized 

there was room for another 

boba tea shop in Glenview, 

one that did things a little 

differently. 

Ha and his wife opened 

Boba Club, 1825 Waukegan 

Road in Glenview, 

just a few short weeks ago 

and offer more than just a 

grab-and-go experience to 

its customers. 

Boba Club encourages 

patrons to grab a drink, 

stay a while and work. 

Long chats, homework 

sessions or work duties 

are encouraged by the incorporation 

of private and 

semi-private work spaces. 

For those that want to 

focus and work alone, 

there are two private workstations 

disguised as red 

phone booths. 

“The telephone booths 

are really a throwback to 

when I first moved here,” 

Ha said. 

Glenview’s downtown 

area originally had phone 

booths located across from 

Boba Club’s fruit freeze ($4 for a small, $5 for a large) 

can be made with a variety of fruits, of which customers 

choose three, and has tapioca balls at the bottom. 

the library, and Ha wanted 

to bring a little local Glenview 

history into his shop. 

“I wanted to make it like 

this because I worked from 

home before, and I was a 

remote worker, so I was 

always looking for places 

like this,” he said. 

Boba Club also has two 

larger group work spaces, 

both enclosed, in addition 

to a general seating area 

and a bigger open workspace 

toward the back. 

“I’m really happy since 

we’ve opened to see the 

regulars come in on their 

bikes at 3:30 or 4 p.m. and 

they’re in the rooms doing 

their homework,” he said. 

As for the menu, Ha 

mixed traditional boba tea 

flavors with more popular 

and modern options for his 

customers. 

“We do things authentic 

where they have to be, so 

our jasmine milk tea, for 

instance, it’s what you’re 

going to expect when you 

go into a typical boba tea 

shop,” he said. 

Part of that authentic 

experience is making the 

tapioca balls frequently, 

so the flavor and texture 

is what a customer would 

expect from any boba tea 

shop. 

Boba Club’s tapioca is 

cooked every three to four

hours, as Ha doesn’t want 

his product sitting around 

all day. 

“That’s what I expect 

when I go to a boba tea 

shop,” he said. 

Boba Club offers more 

recognizable drink options 

such as coffees and lattes 

for customers looking for 

a little caffeine. 

Ha incorporated his version 

of an international 

dish he tried in Hong 

Kong. The waffle puff ($5 

classic, $8.50 waffle and 

ice cream combination) 

is a take on a traditional 

street waffle served in 

Hong Kong. 

“The waffle has the texture, 

bounce and chewiness 

that you’re going to 

get from the street waffle 

in Hong Kong,” Ha said. 

Boba Club’s waffle puff 

is served with a variety of 

ice cream flavors ranging 

from traditional flavors 

like vanilla to more exotic 

ones like green tea.

An original waffle puff combo ($8.50) is served with green tea ice cream and topped 

with dried rose petals. 

editors recently ventured 

to Glenview to get a taste 

of what Boba Club has to 

offer. 

Ha prepared two different 

versions of a fruit 

freeze ($4 for a small, 

$5 for a large), which includes 

three different types 

of fruit blended with ice 

and served with chewy 

tapioca balls. 

Ha combined peach, 

mango and strawberry to 

create a thicker version of 

the drink that was sweet 

and near-perfect for a hot 

late-summer day. 

The other fruit freeze, 

made with honey dew, cantaloupe 

and watermelon, 

had a lighter texture to it 

but was still a sweet treat. 

“Our drinks are somewhat 

good for kids, there’s 

a lot of sugar because of 

the fruits and stuff, but it’s 

all real,” Ha said. 

Ha also let us sample 

the waffle puffs. The first, 

with the classic waffle, 

similar in flavor to vanilla, 

was served with green tea 

ice cream and topped with 

dried rose petals. The second, 

a nod to cookies and 

cream, was the chocolate 

waffle puff served with 

sesame ice cream and 

topped with crushed chocolate 

sandwich cookies. 

Both of these sweet 

treats strike a balance between 

authentic and inauthentic 

flavors, that work 

well together, as was Ha’s 

intent. 

“I really want to keep 

everything acceptable to 

the people that live on the 

North Shore,” he said.

LFC offers free admission 

to youth player 

Youth football players 

will get free admission 

to Lake Forest College’s 

Saturday, Sept. 22 game 

by simply wearing their 

jersey. 

The college will extend 

a special invitation to area 

youth football players 

to celebrate Lake Forest 

Community and Alumni 

Days. 

The football team will 

host Lawrence University 

10 Questions 

with Cameron Stockton 

Cameron Stockton is a senior 

at Lake Forest High 

School and runs crosscountry. 

How did you get 

started running crosscountry? 

I started freshman year. I 

joined the team with a few 

friends. My friends talked 

my parents into signing 

me up. I originally didn’t 

want to join the team, but 

now that I joined I’m very 

happy about it. 

 

and wants to see its stands 

packed with community 

supporters. In order to 

make Community Day special, 

LFC is excited to provide 

opportunities for both 

youth and families to enjoy. 

Youth players can also 

gain free admission by creating 

a sign to support the 

Foresters on the field. Other 

activities include photos 

with Boomer the mascot, 

participation in a halftime 

contest, and as a new addition 

this year all faculty 

and staff in attendance will 

 

have the opportunity to be 

entered into a drawing to 

win some great Forester 

prizes. Additionally, all 

F.A.N. Club members will 

be able to enjoy shaved ice 

for free. 

Kickoff is at 1 p.m. at 

Farwell Field, 255 W. 

Washington Street, Lake 

Forest, Illinois. 

For additional information, 

contact Ashley Wanland, 

Marketing & Special 

Events Director, at (847) 

735-6134 or via email at 

wanland@lakeforest.edu. 

Why do you love the 

sport? 

It’s a great team. The 

dynamic of the team is 

great. Everyone is just super 

close and the races are 

hard and everyone kind 

of struggles through it together. 

What is the most 

challenging part of 

running long distance? 

Honestly, it is probably 

the mental side of things. 

It’s tough to keep going 

for three miles, especially 

in different weather. If it’s 

rainy and all muddy, or if 

it’s super hot it’s hard. 

What are your 

personal goals for this 

season? 

I would love to beat my 

[personal record] this year. 

That’s always a goal with 

most people and for senior 

year that’s a good goal to 

have. 

What is your personal 

record right now? 

19 minutes, 30 seconds 

for 3 miles. 

If you could travel 

anywhere in the 

world, where would 

you go? 

I’m a big car guy, I’ve 

always wanted to go to 

Germany and drive on the 

Autobahn and see the Nürburgring. 

What are your two 

dream cars? 

I’d love to have an 

Subaru STI and definitely 

a Porshce Gt3. One is a 

pretty obtainable dream 

car and one is pretty expensive, 

but hopefully one 

day. 

If you could try 

another sport, what 

photo submitted 

would you want to 

play? 

Golf. Golf is one of 

those good business sports. 

You’ll be on the 

varsity swim team 

this winter, what are 

your favorite races to 

swim? 

Either the 50-yard free 

or the 100 free. 

What is the best part 

about being an athlete 

at Lake Forest? 

Definitely just having 

somewhere to go after 

school and having a team 

that you’re familiar with. 

It’s nice, especially as a 

younger kid, like freshman 

and sophomore year, to 

have that team dynamic of 

people you know.

Football 

Scouts upset Bears in Week 4 win 

David Jaffe 


There is often not just 

one defining game or moment 

in a team’s season. 

And most don’t always 

recognize one when it is 

happening. 

Sometimes it might be 

a team’s play in a given 

game or against a specific 

opponent. 

Other times it’s the 

team’s ability to overcome 

injuries and adversity 

or how it responds to 

a losing streak. 

Last year, Lake Forest 

battled back from a four 

game losing streak to win 

three in a row including a 

crucial win at Zion-Benton 

and made the playoffs. 

One of those losses was at 

home to Lake Zurich 27- 

0. 

If Lake Forest makes 

the playoffs this year for 

the ninth straight season, 

it may point to its win Friday, 

Sept. 14 at Lake Zurich 

as one of those games 

that defined its season. 

Although the Scouts (2- 

2, 2-0) had their struggles 

on both sides of the ball, 

they came up huge offensively 

and defensively 

when they needed to. 

Lake Forest went into a 

difficult road test and upset 

the Bears, a preseason 

top 10 team, 24-7. 

“We had some hardships 

and injuries in this 

game,” Lake Forest coach 

Chuck Spagnoli said. 

“Will Freeman was out. 

Will Wisniewski got hurt 

first play of the game. 

(Quarterback) James 

(Swartout) got hurt. But 

the kids played well and 

with great emotion. I’m 

very happy for them. The 

seniors should enjoy this

Top Performers 

1. Rylie Mills, DE — seven tackles, fumble recovery 

Mills had seven tackles and his fumble recovery set up 

the Scouts’ final touchdown sealing the game. 

2. Ryan Cekay, WR — 1 touchdown reception, 1 touchdown 

throw 

Cekay had a 23-yard touchdown catch to put the 

Scouts in front for the first time in the game, and a 

72-yard touchdown pass to Breck Nowik after receiving 

a handoff. 

3. Tommy Hanson, QB — 5-for-7, 56 yards passing, six 

tackles 

Hanson filled in as quarterback in the second half 

going 5 for 7 for 56 yards, including a 23-yard touchdown 

pass to Cekay that gave the Scouts its first lead. 

because this is the only 

time they’ll be seniors. 

We showed what we were 

capable of.” 

Lake Forest junior defensive 

end Rylie Mills 

was ecstatic about the 

win. 

“This is a huge win for 

us,” Mills (7 tackles) said. 

“I still can’t believe it. My 

head is all over the place 

right now knowing what 

we just accomplished.” 

Lake Zurich had its 

only score early on with 

Jack Dwyer’s (136 yards) 

2-yard touchdown run 

with 2 minutes, 15 seconds 

left in the first quarter. 

The Scouts gave up almost 

400 yards of offense. 

But, they forced five turnovers 

and had four stops 

on fourth down, stepping 

up and making big plays 

when it counted. 

“We had a rough start 

to the season, but I think 

things are clicking right 

now on defense,” Mills 

said. “We have a lot of 

depth and guys are stepping 

up and making big 

plays. The pieces are starting 

to come together.” 

“In the end, yardage 

doesn’t matter as much,” 

Spagnoli said. “The scoreboard 

is what counts. And 

we were able to force a lot 

of turnovers in the process 

and made things tough on 

their offense when we 

needed to.” 

In the second quarter, 

Luke Nolan intercepted 

quarterback Matt Mc- 

Graw setting up a 27-yard 

field goal by Carter Hiam 

with 6:45 left in the half. 

Then things changed 

as Tommy Hanson had 

to come in for Swartout 

on the final series of the 

first half. But, in the second 

half under Hanson, 

the Scouts started to get 

in a rhythm. They took the 

lead on Hanson’s 2-yard 

touchdown pass to Ryan 

Cekay with just under 

seven minutes left in the 

third quarter going up 10- 

7. 

“We just asked Tommy 

to be Tommy,” Spagnoli 

said. “We know what 

he can do well, and we 

didn’t ask him to do anything 

that he wasn’t already 

capable of. He was 

able to take advantage 

and filled in that role nicely.” 

But it wasn’t all Hanson 

as Cekay received a handoff, 

then threw a 72-yard 

bomb to Breck Nowik for 

the touchdown and a 17-7 

lead with just over two 

minutes left in the third. 

“We’ve worked on that 

play with Cekay in practice,” 

Spagnoli said. “It’s 

not actually a trick play. 

Ryan made a great read 

and had a very good throw. 

That helped us continue to 

keep momentum.” 

The Bears moved the 

ball, but couldn’t score. 

And the Scouts forced two 

more turnovers in the final 

four minutes of the game 

with Eddie Scheidler’s 

interception stopping a 

drive at the Scouts’ 19. 

Then the ball was stripped 

from McGraw and recovered 

by Mills at the Bears 

five. Three plays later, 

Mac Uihlein ran it in from 

two yards out increasing 

the lead to 24-7 with just 

over a minute left in the 

game. 

“I was going to the 

quarterback trying to get 

a safety,” Mills said. “We 

hit the quarterback and 

the ball came out and I 

dove in there for it. The 

play worked out perfectly, 

kind of like in a movie.” 

Connor Morrison also 

had an interception earlier 

in the game while Clayton 

Burton tipped what turned 

out to be a backward pass 

allowing Ben Marwede to 

recover.

Scouts fall in shootout to New Trier 

Michael Wojtychiw 


Lake Forest’s Allison Quackenbush battles a New Trier player for possession during the game that ended in a shootout loss to the Trevians 

Sept. 12 in Northfield. Michael Wojtychiw/22nd Century Media 

When two of the best 

teams in the state face 

off, the play on the field 

gets elevated and makes 

it seem like a postseason 

game that’s going to decide 

a state championship. 

That was the feeling 

Sept. 12 when Lake Forest 

visited Northfield to 

take on New Trier in the 

teams’ first matchup of the 

season. 

“That was exciting for 

you, but my heart was 

skipping a beat,” New 

Trier coach Stephanie 

Nykaza said. 

The reason for that was 

her Trevians had to hold 

off the visiting Scouts for 

a 5-4 shootout win. 

With New Trier up 2-1 

with over a minute left, 

Lake Forest was looking 

to tie the game and give 

it an opportunity to win 

the game in regulation or 

overtime. 

That’s when Scouts’ 

Maggie Mick put in a shot 

from in front of the goal to 

tie the game with 1 minute, 

1 second remaining in 

regulation. 

“Addie (Sidles) in the 

middle, she had a wide 

open space, so she just 

hit it and I was like ‘I’m 

just going to go for the 

tip,’” Mick said. “So I just 

put my stick there to get 

something, went to the 

goalie. I honestly thought 

I was going to hit the post 

but luckily it went right in 

the corner.” 

The Scouts looked as if 

they had actually tied the 

game 30 seconds earlier, 

but had a goal waved off. 

Instead, it helped lead to 

Mick’s heroics. 

After a scoreless overtime 

session and a brief 

delay after the stadium 

lights shut off, the game 

headed to a shootout, 

where Nykaza made a 

bold move: she inserted 

goalie Emmaliese Lauber 

into the cage. Lauber 

hadn’t played all season, 

as she was recovering 

from a torn labrum, and 

had just started practicing 

a couple days ago. Her 

younger sister, Isabella, 

had played goalie during 

regulation. 

“Our senior (Emmaliese) 

just came back to 

practice yesterday, she had 

a torn hip labrum, but she 

came back yesterday and 

she’s done a lot of 1v1’s 

and said she could do it,” 

the New Trier coach said. 

“Her younger sister (Bella) 

has done a great job in 

goal but she doesn’t have 

the experience her sister 

does. Emma ended up taking 

it and she did a great 

job. She just came back 

and that was really impressive.” 

You wouldn’t be able 

to tell that the elder Lauber 

hadn’t played until 

that night, as the senior 

saved the first two shots 

she faced from Mick and 

Logan Hanekamp. 

“Going into the shootout, 

a lot of us are nervous, 

but we know it’s 

not the end of the world,” 

Mick said. “We haven’t 

practiced shootouts a lot, 

so that might have been in 

our minds, but at the end 

of the day, it’s just a game 

in the season, not playoffs 

or anything. Just try 

to get it in the goal and if 

not, it’s not the end of the 

world.” 

While she was keeping 

the Scouts off of the scoreboard, 

Kathryn McLaughlin 

and Paige Baldwin 

were getting the Trevians 

on the board with goals in 

the team’s first two shootout 

attempts. McLaughlin 

had scored the game’s first 

goal of the night when she 

put the ball past the Lake 

Forest goalie just minutes 

into the contest. 

After not converting on 

their first two shots, the 

next two Scouts to shoot, 

Julia Hender and Gracie 

McGowan, scored, giving 

the visitors life in the 

shootout. A New Trier 

miss, followed by a Hillary 

Cox conversion meant 

that the Scouts’ hopes 

were down to Sarah Considine. 

If she made the 

shot, the Trevians would 

need to convert their next 

shot to win. If not, the 

game would be over. 

Lauber made the save, 

sending the Trevians off 

to celebrate the big win. 

The win marked the second 

over some of the best 

teams in the state, as the 

Trevians defeated North 

Shore Country Day last 

week as well. 

“This was a tough 

game, a good game on 

both sides,” Nykaza said. 

“To come back like that, 

that’s really hard what 

they did. But for us to rebound, 

because we were 

looking like balloons that 

were deflating when they 

scored that goal, was great 

to see.” 

Both of the Trevians’ 

regulation goals were 

scored in the first half, 

with Baldwin scoring 

New Trier’s second goal 

with 5:27 remaining in the 

first half. In addition to 

Mick’s game-tying goal, 

Hender scored in the first 

half at the 19:50 mark. 

“For us, what this game 

showed us is that we’re 

in control of our own 

destiny,” said Lake Forest 

coach Cat Catanzaro. 

“When we needed to 

score, we found a way to 

do that and in games like 

this, we got to practice 

every aspect of a game. 

Even if we don’t go to 

overtime the rest of the 

season, come state playoffs, 

we’ve done it. We’ve 

been there and against a 

good team, so we’ve practiced 

it.”

The game went 

into overtime 

and ended in a 

shootout, facing 

tough competition 

on both sides. 

Brittany Kapa, Sports Editor 

Woodlands Academy 

knew that it had an uphill 

battle ahead of them during 

its matchup against 

North Shore Country Day 

School. 

Knowing they were facing 

the defending IHSA 

Class 1A state championships, 

coach Jim Franke 

wanted his players to just 

have fun during the home 

matchup Sept. 11. 

“[I want them] to just 

enjoy being out on the 

court with one of the best 

tennis players in the state,” 

he said. “That may be the 

best tennis player you’ll 

ever be on the court.” 

The Wildcats heeded 

their coach’s advice during 

the match. 

“It was nice because it 

pushed me to be better and 

for me to work harder,” 

said Genevieve Hesse, a 

junior from Chicago. 

The Raiders’s Claudia 

Miller, the No. 1 singles 

player, may have defeated 

Hesse 6-1, 6-0 but she was 

OK with how the match 

turned out. Later, Hesse 

laughed about her single 

point against Miller. 

“It was mostly because 

of serving faults, but we 

had a couple good rallies, 

so I had some good consistency, 

which was good and 

that helped me get that one 

point,” she said. 

Franke was proud of 

Hesse’s performance, and 

Woodlands Academy girls tennis team faced North Shore Country Day School on 

Sept. 11 in Lake Forest. Photo Submitted 

that even gaining one point 

against a player like Miller 

meant she was winning 

against a state champion, 

at one point during the 

match. 

“The No. 1 singles spot 

is the hot seat on every 

team, because the girl 

she’s playing is a superstar,” 

Franke said. “A lot 

of teams have at least one. 

Last year, she was playing 

JV.” 

The competitive experience 

against Miller only 

benefitted Hesse in the 

end, she said. 

“I wasn’t really intimidated 

because I knew it 

was going to be a hard 

match anyway,” Hesse 

said. “I just tried to have 

fun with it.” 

The challenging play 

continued on all courts 

during the matchup. 

Woodlands Academy’s 

No. 1 doubles pair Elise 

Albertson and Abigail 

Hurtgen faced the Raiders’s 

No. 1 doubles pair of 

Vivian Miller and Caroline 

Lommer who took the 6-2, 

6-0 road win. 

“Basically we just got 

in the mindset that it’s just 

going to be a fun game 

where we can improve,” 

Hurtgen said. “We don’t 

really see these kinds of 

players in practice so we 

both said to each other, 

‘Whatever happens we’re 

going to get better.’” 

Vivian Miller’s serve 

was a bit of a problem in the 

beginning of the first set, 

but by the end the Wildcats 

pair adjusted and were able 

to control the return. 

“She had a really wide 

serve but I think by the 

end we adjusted and got 

in a little better positioning 

for it,” Albertson 

said. “When you start out 

with those kinds of serves 

you have to adjust a little 

bit.” 

The Woodlands duo 

did have a few takeaway 

points that they hope will 

help them in future meets. 

“A lot of the points, 

where we actually came 

through and won, was 

where we didn’t do as 

much top spin and just 

your traditional shot,” 

Hurtgen said. “We did 

more moving them around 

and hitting the ball a little 

bit deeper, and different 

types of spin, and I think 

that helped more in the end 

than just hitting it back and 

forth.” 

Woodlands kept it interesting 

at No. 2 doubles 

when Hailey Denton and 

Daphne Ricketts held their 

own against Edith Edwards-Mizel 

and Gabbie 

Kaplinsky when after tying 

7-5, 4-6 the pairs were 

forced to play a super-tie 

breaker where NSCDS ultimately 

won out 10-7. 

Alex Arenson controlled 

the play at No. 

2 singles when she won 

6-0, 6-0 over Mary Clare 

Scalise. Number 3 doubles 

played a competitive 

match as well, but 

NSCDS won out as Emily 

Weil and Emily Yoo 

topped Aine Heanney and 

Ingrid Hu 6-4, 6-3. 

“We were prepared for 

a challenge, definitely, as 

we usually are when we 

play North Shore Country 

Day,” Hurtgen said. “We 

just try and get the most 

out of the game.”

work harder.”
