Hall Township Food Pantry celebrates 15 years

By Donna [email protected]

MALDEN — The Malden Playground Committee has reached nearly one-half of its $25,000 goal to buy new play-ground equipment for Malden Grade School students.

On Monday, Malden Grade School Superintendent Mike Patterson said about $11,000 has been raised so far to get the needed new playground equipment. That money has come through community donations and also from an on-going Pennies for Play-ground classroom collection.

To add to that amount, the Malden Playground Commit-tee is planning a fundraiser for Saturday at the Princ-eton Moose Lodge. The doors open at 4:30 p.m., with din-ner served from 5 to 7 p.m. There will also be a live auc-tion at 7 p.m., followed by a silent auction. Music will be provided by a DJ.

Tickets are $16 per adult; $12 for children ages 4 to 17; and free for children ages 3 and younger.

The Malden Playground Committee has collected about 40 items for the live auction and 50 items for the silent auction, Patterson said. Among those items are one-half hog, one-quarter beef, classroom quilts, gift bas-kets, seed corn, sports game tickets, Cubs and Cardinals items, a Bureau County Metro Center membership, a Wis-consin Dells overnight stay, a barn quilt, Steelx stainless steel bracelet, and numerous certificates for food places and other items.

The committee, which is comprised of parents of Mal-den students, school staff and community members, is hopeful to raise the remain-ing needed playground money at Saturday’s event, Patterson said.

SPRING VALLEY — Project Success of Eastern Bureau County’s Hall Township Food Pantry celebrated 15 years of sharing food on Saturday.

In celebration, the food pantry provided an open house setting from 10 a.m. to noon and invited individuals on pantry tours through the current location at 500 N. Terry St.

Director Jan Martin said it was a great time, and people who visited were very interested in seeing how the pantry oper-ates on a daily basis.

Martin explained the food pantry oper-ates a little bit differently than most.

The Hall Township Food Pantry uses a client choice operation, where patrons are escorted through the pantry by their own personal shopper and are assisted with choosing from a list of items.

“Each shopper gets about 70 pounds of food each month,” Martin explained.

The Hall Township Food Pantry first opened its doors in 1998 and over the years has been located in numerous loca-tions, but has always continued to serve the needs of the community.

In the last two and a half years Martin has been director, she said the biggest change to the pantry has been the addition of the healthier foods section and baby supplies section.

“We have been really striving to order

and attain healthier foods that address the special dietary needs for people who have to eat gluten-free foods, or have diabetes or for those who are lactose intolerant,” she said.

Martin said 40 percent of the shoppers at the pantry are children, so the need for a babycare section to supply items such as diapers and baby wash were also important.

Over the years, Martin has noticed an increase in shoppers at the pantry. She hopes to see the number decrease in the near future. She said numbers usually decrease during the months students are back to school, because they can rely on the two meals served at the school.

MANLIUS — Har-old Oloffson can still remember his days at the old Manlius one-room schoolhouse. The school consolidated in 1945, but it’s memories have continued to this day.

The old school build-ing actually still stands today. The old structure has been updated and converted into a home on the corner of 1900 North Avenue and 1100 East Street, southeast of Manlius.

Oloffson, along with his twin brother, Harry, lived in the house right next to the schoolhouse. Their mother, Antoi-nette Oloffson, was the teacher at the school the last two years before it consolidated with Man-lius School.

Living less than 50 feet from the schoolhouse certainly had its advan-tages. Today, Oloffson looks back and laughs about his short walks to school.

“People talk about walking to school in those days. I walked to school everyday,” he said. “All I had to do was hop over a fence and walk across the yard.”

While a wooden fence separated the yard of his home and the school prop-erty, Oloffson remembers the days before he was in school. He and his twin brother, Harry, would sit out on the fence, looking into the windows of the school and tantalizing the students inside.

The Old Manlius School was just like any other schoolhouse around the county in those times. Inside, the desks were hooked together and lined in rows. The teach-er’s desk sat in the front and chalkboards hung on the side walls where students would practice their handwriting.

Oloffson can remem-ber small things like the globe that sat on his mother’s desk and the map that hung in the front of the room, which could be pulled down during studies.

Oloffson doesn’t remember much about the lessons taught back then, but he does remember having recess with his fellow class-mates. Outside, on the school grounds, a small playground was available for students. Oloffson can remember a teeter-totter, swing set, chin bar and a pair of rings for students to hang on.

The students used to play softball on the grounds, as well, and in wintertime, Oloffson remembers sledding

down a hill located near the schoolhouse.

In the springtime, the kids used to fly kites. Oloffson said some stu-dents even made their own kites to fly.

With his mother being teacher, Oloffson said he and his brother definite-ly didn’t get any special treatment. In fact, they had to stay in line for the most part.

“We was the examples. We couldn’t do too much. We had to set examples for the rest of the kids,” he said. “Couldn’t act up too much.”

Although no specific memory sticks out when asked about what it was like having his mother be his teacher, Oloff-son does remember his mother working late hours and spending most nights correcting assign-ments.

At PTA meetings, Oloffson remembers students being asked to make a box of goodies, which were auctioned off as a fundraiser.

“If you had a girlfriend or someone you liked, you would bid on her box and get that one,” he said. “Same thing with Valentine’s Day. You would try to get the Val-entine from the girl you like.”

Remembering Old Manlius School

A memorial plaque sits at the former location of the Old Manlius School-house. The schoolhouse structure still stands today, but has been con-verted into a home. The one-room schoolhouse closed in 1945 and con-solidated with the Man-lius school in 1946. The former Antoinette Oloff-son taught at the school from 1943-45. Her son, Harold, can still remem-ber attending class with his twin brother when their mother was teacher

When the group started its work earlier this year, the committee had two goals, Patterson said. First was to raise the needed $25,000 so the Malden kids could have modern, updated playground equipment at the school. The current equipment was last updated in 1991, more than 20 years ago. The second goal was to increase community involvement with the school, he said.

With those goals in mind, Patterson said he’s hopeful for a great turnout at Saturday’s event, not just from people with children in school but

also from community mem-bers who don’t have kids in school. As before, Malden has been a great community to show its support of the chil-dren in the community, he said.

“Malden is a great small town, with a lot of community spirit,” Patterson said. “So, we hope to see that spirit on Saturday.”

Once the needed money is raised, the plans are to buy the new playground equip-ment and install it next sum-mer, Patterson said.

Malden Grade serves about 110 students, from pre-kin-dergarten through eighth grades.


Martin said the need to sup-ply the shelves is an ongoing task. Currently, the pantry is really focusing on being able to supply diary foods.

“I found out milk is a lux-ury item,” Martin said. “Milk is just very expensive and people can’t afford it.”

Martin also works to keep up the supply of butter, eggs and most recently, soy milk.

“I’m just grateful we are located within such a giving community,” Martin said.

“We are also very blessed to be able to work with two food banks.”

The food pantry will be hosting a representative from the Bureau County Health Department this week, who will speak about and answer questions on the Affordable Care Act. The representa-tive will be available during food pantry hours and also on Wednesday from 5 to 7 p.m.

Martin encourages all patrons to come find out more about the new health care law.

Recognizing National Disability Employment Awareness MonthGateway

Services, Inc. brings awareness

to campaign

By Goldie [email protected]

PRINCETON — With October being National Disability Employment Awareness Month, Gate-way Services Inc. of Princeton is stepping out to help bring aware-ness to the campaign.

Michael Brown, who is the Community Employ-ment Service supervisor at Gateway Services, explained it’s important to recognize the valu-able contribution people with disabilities can pro-vide for local employers.

While it benefits the community in several ways, it also allows the population of people to get out and be a part of their community.

“It makes for a more integrated society,” Brown said.

According to a Gate-

way Services press release, the history of National Disability Employment Awareness Month traces back to 1945, when congress enacted a law declaring the first week in Octo-ber each year National Employ the Physically Handicapped Week.

In 1962, the word “physically” was removed to acknowl-edge the employment needs and contributions of individuals with all types of disabilities. In 1988, Congress expand-ed the week to a month and changed the name to National Disability Employment Awareness Month.

Gateway Services provide Community Employment Service programs, which helps give individuals with dis-abilities tools to attain and retain employment in the community.

Individuals are taken step-by-step through the job search process. Once they are employed, a job coach may be provided if needed to guide them to complete daily tasks until the job coach is no longer needed.

Brown explained cli-ents who participate in the programs come from all ends of the spectrum. Some are kids who have just grad-uated high school and

are coming face-to-face with the basics, such as creating resumes and prepping for first inter-views to individuals who have obtained specialty licenses and are just needing assistance with finding their niche.

“This population of people who find employ-ment are always very dedicated to their jobs. They take the job very seriously and tend to be in the position a long, long time,” Brown said. “It’s a win-win situa-tion for the employer and employee as long as it’s the right fit. The employer will gain just as much satisfaction as the employee.”

Employers and employees in all indus-tries can learn more about how to participate in National Disability Employment Awareness Month and ways they can promote its message by visiting the ODEP website at www.dol.gov/odep/.

Saturday’s event is free, open to all area res-idents, and anonymous, with no questions asked, Conerton said.

Among the items which will be accepted are all prescription medications and over-the-counter medications, vitamins and supplements, medi-cated ointments, creams and oils, homeopathic remedies, supposito-ries, and inhalers. Pet medications will also be accepted, Conerton said.

However, there are some items which will not be accepted, includ-ing needles/sharps, syringes with needles, thermometers, blood or infectious waste, person-al care products, empty containers, hydrogen peroxide, aerosol cans, and IV bags, the CPASA coordinator said.

Looking at the impor-tance of the Take-Back program, Conerton said the national program addresses a vital public safety and public health issue. Medicines that languish in home cabi-

nets are highly suscepti-ble to diversion, misuse, and abuse, she said.

Studies show the rates of prescription drug abuse in the United States are alarmingly high, as are the num-ber of accidental poison-ings and overdoses due to these drugs, Conerton said.

“Studies also show that a majority of abused prescription drugs are obtained from family and friends, including from the home medicine cabi-net,” Conerton said.

In addition, people need to know that medi-cations need to be dis-posed of properly, not by flushing them down the toilet or throwing them in the trash which both

pose potential safety and health hazards, Coner-ton said.

As reported earlier in the Bureau County Republican, the last local Take Back event was held in April 2013, with more than 250 pounds of prescription and over-the-counter drugs col-lected in Princeton, Buda and Wyanet. April’s Take Back Day collection was added to the local, on-going Prescription Drug Disposal Program (P2D2) drop-box accumulations, which resulted in a total

of 1,543 pounds of col-lected medications.

The P2D2 drop-off boxes are located at the Princeton Police Depart-ment, Bureau County Sheriff’s Department and Jail, Spring Valley Police Department, Put-nam County Sheriff’s Department, Ladd Police Department and Walnut Police Department. Since beginning the P2D2 pro-gram in July 2010, the program has collected 4,343 pounds of drugs.

Career Expo set for Wednesday

RICL meeting is Monday in Mendota

PRINCETON — The North Central Illinois Discover Manufactur-ing Career Expo is set for Wednesday with tours of five area businesses.

Plant tours are sched-uled for 9 to 10:45 a.m. at LCN in Princeton; Black Bros. in Mendota; Vac-tor in Streator; MBL in Ottawa; Carus Chemical in LaSalle; and Eakas in Peru.

Also, students, digni-taries and invited guests will be at Celebrations 150, east of Utica, from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. with the general public invited from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. The keynote speaker for this portion of the day will be

Daniel Janka, president of MAG-IAS.

Looking at the origin of Wednesday’s event, Jerry Corcoran, president at Illinois Valley Commu-nity College, said he had visited the Peoria Manu-facturing Expo last year with a number of college colleagues and came away convinced that replicating the expo in IVCC’s eight-county district would be a great idea.

Since that time, North Central Regional Better-ment Coalition (NCRBC) and its partners, Carus Corporation, IVCC, Starved Rock Association for Vocational & Technical Education (SRAVTE) and

NCI-Works. have worked together to plan Wednes-day’s event.

According to Expo Com-mittee chairman Patricia Walters, Wednesday’s program is “very forward-looking”, beginning in the classroom with students conducting research on local manufacturers and learning business eti-quette in preparation for the Expo.

As reported earlier in the Bureau County Repub-lican, the Manufacturing Expo provides a forum for 300 high school students to explore a variety of career options, meet face-to-face with local employers and understand the education-

al and work-ready require-ments needed to obtain employment and possible promotion in their field of interest.

LaSalle-Peru Township High School Superin-tendent Steve Wrobleski and SRAVTE Director Mary Stouffer have been in charge of gaining par-ticipation from area high schools and student coor-dination of the event.

“It will be an enjoy-able day for the students, as well as educational,” Stouffer said. “There will also be a grand prize draw-ing for one lucky student to receive a free iPad and drawings for several other kid-friendly prizes.”

MENDOTA — The Illi-nois Commerce Commis-sion has scheduled a sec-ond public forum to gather comments on the proposal from Rock Island Clean Line (RICL) to construct, operate and maintain a transmission line. The forum will begin at 7 p.m. Monday in the Mendota

High School Gym, 152 N. 4453rd Rd. or 152 East U.S. Highway 52, Mendota.

People who signed up to provide comments at the initial public forum, but did not have a chance to speak will be given the opportunity to make com-ments first. Additional speakers will be given an

opportunity to provide public comments if time allows.

Rock Island Clean Line LLC submitted a petition with the ICC Oct. 10, 2012 to act as a transmission public utility and to con-struct, operate and main-tain a 500 mile overhead High Voltage Direct Cur-

rent transmission line.Oral and written com-

ments will be accepted at the meeting. Comments may also be submitted through the ICC website, www.icc.illinois.gov/dock-et/comment, or by calling 1-800-524-0795.

The docket for the case is 12-0560.

Illinois Valley Community CollegeOGLESBY — The Illinois Valley

Community College board Oct. 15 approved naming rights for two prominent areas within the new Peter Miller Community Technology Center.

Trustees approved naming the lab at the northeast end of the cen-ter the Fives Cincinnati/Giddings & Lewis Manufacturing Center in rec-ognition of the company’s gift of a $300,000 vertical machining center.

The donation was made possible by 1982 IVCC alumnus Dan Janka, formerly of LaSalle. Janka is presi-dent of Fives Machining Systems of Erlanger, Ky., and former president of MAG IAS, third largest machine tool manufacturer in the world.

“Because of the role Dan has played in orchestrating the dona-tion from Fives, training and equip-ment support from Caterpillar, and a bridge to employment for IVCC interns, we would like to name the center for the manufacturers he has worked with over his extraordinary career,” said IVCC President Jerry Corcoran.

The board also approved nam-ing the MIMIC (Making Industry Meaningful in College) meeting room for 1951 LPO Junior College alum-nus Ralph Scriba of Palos Verdes Peninsula, Calif. Scriba, a self-made international success story, phi-lanthropist and aviation parts pio-neer, made a $50,000 gift to the Peter Miller Community Technology Center capital campaign in April.

MIMIC is a nationally recognized program uniting students from engi-

neering design, electronics and busi-ness into company teams to design, manufacture, market and sell prod-ucts.

In other CTC-related news, Corcoran said with the Nov. 1 grand opening less than three weeks away, most of the furniture is in, and much of the technol-ogy has been installed. The Fives vertical machining center is being installed; contractors are complet-ing punch list reviews; and the new Cultural Centre stage floor has been installed.

The board also approved:• The $11,914 bid of Grasser’s

Plumbing & Heating of McNabb for HVAC lab/classroom equipment.

• The $51,110 bid of JBH Technologies Inc. of Glenview for a 3D printer to be used in the Computer Aided Engineering and Design program and by MIMIC stu-dents.

• The purchase of two integrated hydraulic training systems for the industrial maintenance program in the CTC for $43,715 from Parker Hannifin Corporation.

• Purchase of a digital signage system from Springfield Electric for the CTC that includes three 55-inch Samsung digital signage displays and software for $12,575. The board also approved the purchase of lat-eral filing cabinets for the CTC from Henricksen & Co. for $11,577.

• The purchase of 280 tons of rock salt from Cargill Incorporated Salt Division for $14,714 or $52.55 per ton.

• Authorized Corcoran to begin preparing the 2013 tax levy to be

presented in November and finalized in December.

• After a second reading, board policies on medical/occupational examinations, drug-free campus, and bicycles and skateboards on campus.

The board also learned:• Jennifer Scheri, training special-

ist for the Business Training Center, was recently honored by peers across Illinois as the winner of the 2013 We Train Lifetime Achievement Award. Corcoran, who used to work with Scheri in the Dislocated Workers Center, said, “Jennifer has been with IVCC for 20 years, and there is no one more deserving of this recognition.”

• Head librarian Frances Whaley has been invited by the board of directors of the Consortium of Academic and Research Libraries in Illinois to join an elite group of professionals to put together a new library director’s development pro-gram.

• The women’s volleyball team that includes student trustee Taylor Gunia is 19-10 this fall and “has improved each season under Coach Julie Sherbeyn,” Corcoran said. Oct. 22 is the last home match before regional play begins Nov. 3.

• The women’s tennis squad quali-fied for the national tournament in Tyler, Texas, next spring.

• The Oct. 9 College Night attract-ed 50 colleges and universities from around the state and Midwest. Corcoran credited assistant director of admissions Connie Skerston and her coworkers in student services for the success of the event.

Ladd Village BoardLADD — The Ladd Village Board

conducted the following business at its Oct. 8 meeting:

• Heard the plan commis-sion would meet at 6 p.m. today, Tuesday, to consider changes to the B-2 zoning district.

• Approved a building permit for Streator Farm Mart to construct a 54 X 90 building on their property at Main and Walnut streets.

• Heard Matt Pinter question whether he would be allowed to pur-chase the rear portion of his neigh-bor’s property. He plans to demolish the existing garage and build a new one. He was advised to meet with the building inspector with his plan.

• Granted permission to the village clerk to seek proposals for redesign-ing the village’s current website.

The board will meet in regular ses-sion at 6:30 p.m. on today, Tuesday, in the village hall.

Considerations by NeddaWe hear a lot about entitlement.

The word was used for govern-ment grants that allowed schools and others to improve lives.

But I am talking about the present use of the word. I am entitled to this; she is entitled to that ... and on and on. When did we become a nation of folks who believe we deserve to be happy, free from worry, rich, and have every little thing we want — now?

It is implied our children should never be disappointed, sad or have to wait for something, whether it is a reward or a goal.

We are the most generous nation in the world, and we lead the world in volunteerism. Some-where we started to be afraid we wouldn’t get everything we deserve right now. Of course, we all don’t feel this way all the time. Our kids have good parents, and we are good folks.

I just want to remind myself and anyone who will listen that the very freedom we enjoy, includ-ing all that implies, that someone really risked everything to estab-lish this nation and try to keep it going as a democracy. I know we realize others sacrificed every-thing to get us where we are, but we need to get over the idea that this makes us special. We have some work to do — always and ever.

I see nations struggling across the world trying to establish some

form of government that allows their people a voice. The scenes are awful to watch, yet we have something in common with them. We looked that way in the early years.

Medical research and treatment comes to mind. Remember the great old days when we struggled with surgery and illnesses that are now outpatient procedures or nonexistent? It helps to remind ourselves that it is OK not to have instant gratification all the time or instant relief.

I guess I want us to remind our-selves that goals can be very, very hard to reach. It can take years of setbacks, disappointments and roadblocks. I’m not telling older people anything new. I don’t know any of us who had a swell life every inch of the way.

We see this when little kids try so hard to win even one game in some sport, and they finally do it. Those kids know something about earning, and they didn’t really think of being entitled.

Driving a car comes to mind, and in spite of what we want to believe, driving is a privilege; we are not entitled to drive. As we

age, this can really make us stub-born and hard to live with. We probably are not the great drivers we think we are! Traffic is thicker and faster, and our reflexes may not be up to the pace.

We all need to think about this and talk to somebody about what we can do to get around without scaring the daylights out of our children and the neighbors. This is a tough decision for everybody. I realize driving means going places whenever we please. Not driving means we have lost the freedom to choose when we go.

The problem comes when we are not perceptive enough to real-ize it is time to make different arrangements. Ask your family. I know ... it is really hard, but you may find your loved ones are relieved you brought it up, and they may just suggest town and errand driving. (I suggested to my 85-year-old sister she should not drive 200 miles to see a friend in Texas heat.) She agreed, and I slept better.

We have a great network of friends and helpers. It is time to utilize them. We are not entitled to jeopardize lives and property. My very best wishes to you all and myself as well, as we struggle with this and other issues of aging.

All we need to remember is to be kind.

From the editor’s deskPassion. It is a word with a definition that is

as fleeting and elusive as the feelings it evokes. I’m not talking about the passion between two souls, who yearn for one another. Instead, I’m speaking of the emotional, psychological, physi-cal and spiritual feelings one has for the things they do — their calling in life, so to speak. Passion is a difficult word to describe, but last Thursday, I saw 10 women who own plenty of passion. They are women who have made an incredible difference in the Illinois Valley. They are the inaugural group of our Women of Dis-tinction.

On Thursday at Deer Park Coun-try Club in Oglesby, a packed room was on hand to honor these 10 most-deserving women: Kim Abel of Men-dota; Kathy Casstevens of Utica, Mary Ann Cernovich of Sheffield; Lisa Clin-ton of Cherry; Dawn Conerton of Mag-nolia; Pat Schou of Princeton; Nedda Simon of Princeton; Loretta Volker of Princeton; Judith Wilkins Wright of rural Tiskilwa; and Teresa Zearing of Princeton.

The passion these 10 women exhibit on a daily basis in their respective communities and beyond is amazing. They have humbled me, and I feel honored to have been a part of this fun-filled event.

Add to that fun the antics, comical and insightful keynote address by Princeton resi-dent and WGN co-host of the “Kathy and Judy Show,” Kathy O’Malley, and we had the mak-ings for a day that will long be remembered by many.

We had great sponsors too — Heartland Bank and Trust Co., Flowers by Julia, St. Margaret’s Health, Illinois Valley Community College, Illi-nois Valley Community Hospital, Liberty Village and Perry Memorial Hospital — organizations who believe in the power of women and the pas-sion they bring to their roles in their communi-ties, their careers and their families and friends.

Needless to say, it was a fantastic event, and I’m already looking forward to next year. Con-gratulations to our Women of Distinction 2013! May your passion continue to amaze us!

•••Have you made plans to take your fall drive

around Bureau County? If not, better do so soon. You know how these fall leaves are ... One day they’re here — vibrant, beautiful and pic-turesque. And the next day — gone.

Thought for tomorrow: “The saddest people I’ve ever met in life are the ones who don’t care deeply about anything at all. Passion and satis-faction go hand in hand, and without them, any happiness is only temporary because there’s nothing to make it last.” Nicholas Sparks.

The Legacy Girls was formed in 2006. When the three women, who had originally simply been friends singing together in a church

choir, were told their singing had a big band feel to it and they sound-ed like the Andrew Sis-ters, they decided to bring that music to life as a performance group.

In their concert the Legacy Girls present an entertaining tribute to the music that uplifted and unified a nation dur-ing World War II.

Tickets for the Legacy

Girls concert are $18. To purchase tickets, call 815-879-5656, ext. 11, visit www.festival56.com or go to the Festival 56 Box Office at the Grace Theatre.

Plants make food in a process called photosynthesis. During summer, plants take water up from their roots to their leaves. They absorb carbon dioxide from the air. These combine to make chlorophyll which makes plant leaves green.

Photosynthesis slows in fall as winter approaches. Trees and plants live off their stored food. The green chlorophyll disappears leaving red, orange and yellow leaves. The dry, brittle leaves soon drop from trees with the help of crisp autumn breezes.

Looking ahead — Princeton may be the team to beat at the Mendota 1A soccer sectional. See page 12.

BCR photo/Kevin HieronymusPrinceton’s senior captains Zach Andersen (left) and Jacob Estrada hold up the Tigers’ latest piece of hardware after defeating Wilmington 5-0 to capture the Princeton Regional championship at the Tiskilwa soccer pitch. Next on the postseason trail for the Tigers will be a trip to Mendota to face the host Trojans at 4:30 p.m. Wednesday.

Tigers blank Wilmington 5-0

Regional Repeat!By Kevin Hieronymus

[email protected]

TISKILWA — The horn sound-ed at the end of Princeton’s 5-0 regional championship win over Wilmington and the players on the PHS bench stood and lightly applauded. They quickly lined up to shake hands with the Wildcats and turned their attention to the next business at hands.

PHS coach Jason Bird told assis-tant David Gray he was happy to see his team was not satisfied just to win regional and relayed the same message to his team.

“We want to keep playing. Obvi-ously wining regional is the first step you got to take to get where you want to go,” Bird said. “We got to get ourselves ready for Wednes-day. That’s all they need to worry

about now playing a game Wednes-day. The coaching staff will worry about the opponent.”

“We’re not done. Last year, once we won regionals, we went crazy. Man, we won. Second time we done it. But this time, we’re going to keep going,” senior captain Jacob Estrada said. “We got Mendota

first, we can handle them. Nothing much. Our main thing is we’re just not going to roll over like we did last year.”

The Tigers will take a 17-3-5 record up against Mendota (9-11-2) in sectional play at Mendota at 4:30 p.m. Wednesday. The former NCIC rivals did not play this year having their early-season match canceled by the heat.

There was plenty to cheer about Saturday from the PHS side of the field. Five different players scored goals with three Tigers notching assists in an overall team effort.

Senior Tyler Marvin, who rejoined the Tiger squad after tak-ing a year off, got the Tigers on the board just over three minutes into the game with an assist from Bren-ton Schmidt.

O’Neil advanced to State for the second year in a row, fin-

ishing second in singles. She was the top seed, but lost to Ottawa’s Molly Angell 6-0, 6-1 in the regional championship match. O’Neil defeated Dose 6-0, 6-1 in the semifinals in a battle of Bureau County top singles players, both seniors.

Dose punched her ticket with a fourth-place finish.

She lost to Morris freshman Megan Davey in the third-place match.

Ottawa won its fourth straight sectional champi-onship and seventh in eight years.

Estrada and Bird said it helped to calm some nerves.

“I know I was person-ally nervous, but once we got that first one under our belts, everybody cools down, starts playing our game, play the short balls, make runs. We do a lot better when we send balls over the top,” Estrada said.

“It’s always important to score the first goal. The guys relax more once we go out and score early in games,” Bird said.

They didn’t stop there, though it took a while. With 2:50 left, Brenton Schmidt cashed in to give the Tigers a 2-0 lead at halftime.

Dylan Schaefer played a part in all three goals in the second half. He assist-ed a goal on a chip shot by Estrada at the 34:47 mark, scored his own goal with a header off a pass from Zach Andersen at 18:05 and passed off to sopho-more Kai Tomaszewski to

cap the scoring at 12:55.Princeton outshot the

Wildcats 21-2 with keeper Lucas Bauer making both stops on goal. Estrada said sweeper Drew Pranka is one of the best defenders he’s ever seen.

Bird said the Tigers worked hard on defense in practice and commu-nicating, and it paid off Saturday.

“If you don’t let them score, you’re going to win,” he said.

Tiger tales: Estrada said last year’s 7-1 loss to Hinckley-Big Rock in the sectional semifinals at Mendota has been a big motivating factor for the Tigers. “Once we lost, everybody cried. I’m not going to lie. We’re men, but we cried. When we came back to start sum-mer, none of us could forget that,” he said. ... Macomb and Somonauk will meet in the second semifinal Wednesday with the sectional finals set for 6 p.m. Saturday.

Team to beat: Princeton (17-3-5).Pairings: Wednesday — Match 1: Mendota (9-11-2)

vs. Princeton, 4:30 p.m. Match 2: Macomb (12-5-1) vs. Somonauk (20-2), 6 p.m. Saturday — Title: Winners 1-2, 6 p.m.

BCR Insider: Princeton won its second straight regional title, blasting Wilmington 5-0. The Tigers don’t want a repeat of its sectional appearance at Mendota, however, when it lost to Hinckley-Big Rock. PHS has never won a soccer sectional in school history. ... To be better prepared for the faster balls on the artificial turf at Mendota, coach Jason Bird will have his team work indoors this week to speed up their reaction time. ... Senior Tyler Marvin leads the Tigers with 31 goals with classmate Dylan Schaefer contributing 25 goals and 23 assists… The host Trojans punched their ticket home with a 2-0 win over Earlville/Leland at the Shabbona Regional. It was the Trojans’ first

regional championship since 2003. … Macomb derailed Peoria Christian for the third postseason in a row, defeating the Chargers 2-1 by penalty kicks in their own regional. The Bombers, the defend-ing sectional champion, are leading a charmed life in the postseason, scoring their second straight penalty kick shootout. PC outshot the Bombers 18-8. … Somonauk finally got past Little Ten rival Hinckley-Big Rock, defeating the host Royals 2-0. The Bobcats had been shut out by HBR in each of the past two regional finals despite defeating the Royals in the regular season. Somonauk rides a 15-match win streak, 10 of which came via a shut-out, and now has tied a school record for 14 shut-outs this season.

BCR pick: Princeton over Somonauk.Next: Go to the Peoria Super-Sectional at 6 p.m.
