McFadden ‘took care of ordinary people’<br />

Former school board<br />

member valued<br />

public service, family<br />

Megann Horstead<br />

Freelance Reporter<br />

The man went to work everyday.<br />

So said Susan McFadden<br />

about her son, Christopher<br />

McFadden. The Frankfort<br />

resident and school board<br />

member was found dead<br />

June 29 in his home.<br />

By trade, he was an attorney<br />

employed by Mahoney,<br />

Silverman & Cross law<br />

firm. Christopher also was<br />

a graduate of Harvard University<br />

and Northwestern<br />

University School of Law, a<br />

former assistant U.S. State’s<br />

Attorney and a former Lincoln-Way<br />

Community High<br />

School District 210 Board of<br />

Education member. He most<br />

recently served as a Frankfort<br />

School District 157-C<br />

Board of Education member.<br />

“Public service was important<br />

to him,” Susan said,<br />

noting Christopher’s affinity<br />

for treating each of his clients<br />

with respect. “He was<br />

the purest of heart, and he<br />

never did anything for the<br />

wrong reason.”<br />

The world is full of people<br />

with stories to tell and Christopher<br />

was the type of person<br />

who always tried to help<br />

them, Susan said.<br />

“If there were ever a person<br />

who lived by the Golden<br />

Rule, I want to meet him,”<br />

Susan said. “That was him.”<br />

Susan added, “He was the<br />

type of person who took care<br />

of ordinary people.”<br />

“We were really close,<br />

and I’m heartbroken,” said<br />

Renato Mariotti, of Chicago,<br />

Christopher’s friend. “I met<br />

Chris when he started at the<br />

U.S. Attorney’s Office. We<br />

went up the ranks together.<br />

He was a good friend. When<br />

I needed help getting trial<br />

Christopher McFadden poses with his wife, Sarah, and three children, (left to right) Erin, Brooke and Matt. McFadden, a<br />

member of the Frankfort School District 157-C Board of Education, was found dead June 29 in his home. Photo submitted<br />

experience, he gave me opportunities<br />

to sit on cases<br />

with him. We became close.”<br />

Mariotti said Christopher<br />

was a man of values and<br />

there are not too many funny,<br />

good-natured prosecutors<br />

like him.<br />

“He left his job in the city<br />

to be closer to his kids,” he<br />

said. “That made an impression<br />

upon me. He left a really<br />

good job. He made a choice<br />

not many lawyers would<br />

make. They can’t find a way<br />

to create that balance.”<br />

The impression Christopher<br />

left was strong, said<br />

Erin Haldorson, of Joliet,<br />

Christopher’s friend and<br />

a classmate at Joliet West<br />

High School. The two were<br />

a part of the Class of 1993.<br />

“As a kid, a classmate<br />

with that mix of qualities is<br />

unforgettable,” Haldorson<br />

said. “We had about 500<br />

kids in our graduating class,<br />

and I bet you would be hard<br />

pressed to find one person<br />

who didn’t know Chris. Chris<br />

made school interesting. As<br />

an adult, Chris kept his edgy<br />

and outrageous sense of humor,<br />

but his kind and caring<br />

side was more at the surface.<br />

His wife, Sarah, and their<br />

three children were the loves<br />

of his life, and they brought<br />

out a softer side to him.”<br />

Long before Christopher<br />

came of age, he demonstrated<br />

an interest in politics and<br />

public service and later followed<br />

through with that. But<br />

it was not all work and no<br />

play for the Frankfort man.<br />

Christopher’s brother, Jim<br />

McFadden, of Gainesville,<br />

Florida, said he was grateful<br />

for the wonderful times they<br />

shared together.<br />

“We did a lot of trips together,<br />

jobs,” he said. “Actually,<br />

we worked together umpiring<br />

and refereeing games.”<br />

Jim remembers the last<br />

time the family came together<br />

in January.<br />

“It was at our parents’ 45th<br />

anniversary,” he said. “We<br />

were able to talk. Most everybody<br />

was there. We had a<br />

good meal, nice laughs.”<br />

Christopher’s younger<br />

brother, Dan McFadden, of<br />

Minneapolis, said Christopher<br />

will be missed.<br />

“He was 12 years older<br />

than me,” he said. “Christopher<br />

was close with Jim,<br />

and we grew closer later in<br />

life. He took care of me. He<br />

took me to orchards and apple<br />

picking when mom was<br />

busy. Being 12 years older,<br />

he provided good advice, and<br />

he helped me find my path in<br />

life. He was very much like<br />

a captain. He was good at<br />

giving advice and opinions. I<br />

think we bonded well.”<br />

The story of Christopher’s<br />

life is one that boasts of<br />

many great highlights, Dan<br />

said.<br />

“I think what I admire<br />

most is he knew all the right<br />

things to say — whether it<br />

was really funny or good<br />

advice,” he said. “He could<br />

tailor it to any situation.<br />

Another thing is he had this<br />

sense of optimism even in<br />

the darkest of times that never<br />

wavered.”<br />

Dan wants his brother to<br />

know how appreciative he is<br />

to have known him.<br />

“I hope he knows I tried to<br />

act like him as much as I can<br />

— super kind, generous,” he<br />

said, noting that Christopher<br />

often taught him lessons and<br />

knew how to cheer him up.<br />

“I want to make sure I keep<br />

that alive.”<br />

Whenever the two were in<br />

the same town, Christopher<br />

and Dan met up for dinner<br />

in and around the area and<br />

for basketball games at their<br />

alma mater, Northwestern<br />

University.<br />

“That was one thing we<br />

shared,” Dan said. “We both<br />

shared that in common.”<br />

Haldorson recalled the last<br />

time she, her fiancé, Christopher<br />

and his wife met up for<br />

lunch.<br />

“It had been a couple<br />

months since we had done<br />

lunch,” she said. “It was a typical<br />

thing we would do … It<br />

was typical Chris. He always<br />

had a smile on his face.”<br />

Haldorson said the important<br />

thing to note is how<br />

much Christopher loved his<br />

family.<br />

“I would like Chris to be<br />

remembered by the community<br />

for his devotion to<br />

Sarah, Brooke, Matthew and<br />

Erin, as well as to his parents<br />

and brothers, Jim and Dan,”<br />

she said.<br />

Haldorson went on to express<br />

how much she valued<br />

Christopher’s friendship,<br />

and cited his humor, intelligence<br />

and uniqueness as his<br />

best qualities.<br />

“I’ve not known anyone<br />

like him, and I never will,”<br />

she said. “The the sad part of<br />

losing someone like him is<br />

you know you’ll never meet<br />

another one like him.”<br />

Christopher McFadden, 41,<br />

was found dead in his home<br />

June 29. An autopsy and<br />

cause of death are pending.<br />

Christopher is survived<br />

by his parents, Susan and<br />

Terry McFadden; his wife,<br />

Sarah Bay McFadden; and<br />

his three children, Brooke,<br />

Matthew and Erin. Christopher<br />

is also survived by two<br />

brothers, James (Ginger) and<br />

Daniel (Ashley); two nieces<br />

and one nephew.

Annual 5K puts Tinley’s Fourth of July in motion<br />

Laurie Fanelli<br />

Freelance Reporter<br />

Freedom, fun, family, fitness<br />

and – of course – fireworks<br />

combined to once<br />

again make the Tinley Park-<br />

Park District’s Fourth of<br />

July celebration a memorable<br />

one.<br />

The activity-filled Independence<br />

Day commenced<br />

with the 27th annual Stars<br />

and Stripes 5K, during which<br />

everyone from elite runners<br />

to casual walkers converged<br />

on McCarthy Park at 8 a.m.<br />

on July 4 to complete the 3.1<br />

mile course. Superintendent<br />

of Recreation Sandra Wolff-<br />

Chevalier enjoyed that the<br />

event brings families out to<br />

have some fun first thing in<br />

the morning.<br />

“It’s a great way to start<br />

the day,” she said. “We pay<br />

tribute to our military who<br />

are fighting now and have<br />

fought in the past. That’s<br />

what today is all about.”<br />

More than 400 runners<br />

pre-registered for the event<br />

and hundreds more took advantage<br />

of the race-day registration<br />

option as blue skies<br />

and sunshine assured perfect<br />

weather for an enjoyable 5K.<br />

Virgen Perez-Dormann, a<br />

Woodridge resident, and her<br />

best friend, Lynn Hoppenrath,<br />

a Tinley Park resident,<br />

signed up for the Stars and<br />

Stripes event for the very<br />

first time this year.<br />

“It’s good to get out there<br />

and get some exercise, and<br />

it’s a nice day to do it, too,”<br />

Perez-Dormann said.<br />

Hoppenrath said that her<br />

friend had to do a bit of persuading<br />

to talk her into starting<br />

off the Fourth of July<br />

with a run, but she was eager<br />

to tackle the course before<br />

returning to McCarthy Park<br />

for the evening festivities.<br />

“I live only a few blocks<br />

away and I know its always<br />

really awesome for families,<br />

so we’ll be back later for the<br />

fireworks,” she said.<br />

Carolyn Gomez, of Tinley<br />

Park, registered herself<br />

and her daughters, Julia and<br />

Katherine, for the 5K as a<br />

way to be more active as a<br />

family.<br />

“We didn’t have a choice,<br />

technically, she just kind of<br />

signed us up,” said Katherine<br />

Gomez with a big smile<br />

on her face.<br />

Although the original decision<br />

may not have been<br />

their own, both girls were<br />

excited to participate.<br />

“I am looking forward to<br />

the run,” Julie Gomez said.<br />

“I’ve done races in the past –<br />

but not for a couple of years<br />

– so it’s good to start getting<br />

active again especially<br />

to prepare for the marching<br />

band that I’m in.”<br />

Aimee Schatz, another<br />

Tinley Park resident, loved<br />

the opportunity to run with<br />

her three sons, Declan, 11,<br />

Brendan, 10, and Gavin, 8.<br />

“We actually like to run<br />

right here around the lake<br />

at McCarthy Park,” Aimee<br />

said. “We also run the Orland<br />

Grassland and we like<br />

the loop around the rec center.<br />

If you’re just looking for<br />

some speed work training,<br />

it’s a good consistent place<br />

to run.”<br />

Although everyone who<br />

took advantage of the beautiful<br />

weather and participated<br />

in the event can consider<br />

themselves a winner,<br />

a few runners completed<br />

the course with impressive<br />

times.<br />

Matthew Gagen, of Lemont,<br />

came in first place overall<br />

in the men’s division with<br />

a time of 17 minutes and 1<br />

second. Tinley Park’s Samantha<br />

Maciaga took home<br />

the women’s top honor, finishing<br />

in 19:29 and 10th<br />

overall.<br />

The day-long celebration<br />

was only just getting started<br />

as runners crossed the finish<br />

line. Beginning at 4 p.m., activities<br />

included a horseshoe<br />

tournament, penny carnival,<br />

inflatables, crafts, bingo<br />

and the ever-popular sandy<br />

candy station which offered<br />

fun for the entire family.<br />

Entertainment was provided<br />

by Peter Oprisko, Bruce Korosa’s<br />

Polka Band, Loopy<br />

& Cazoo the Clowns, Dave<br />

Fleming and the main stage<br />

headliners, Shout Out. All<br />

furthered the good vibes before<br />

the Grand Finale Fireworks<br />

Extravaganza closed<br />

out the night.<br />

To cap off the perfect patriotic<br />

day, the Tinley Park-<br />

Park District gave away a<br />

trip to one lucky family in<br />

honor of the 50th anniversary<br />

of the organization.<br />

“The winner can pick any<br />

National Park they wish –<br />

they’ll receive a voucher –<br />

so that’s something a little<br />

extra special for this year,”<br />

Wolff-Chevalier said.<br />

The Seniors Club’s Helen Baldwin lists her faith as key to living fully<br />

Megann Horstead<br />

Freelance Reporter<br />

For Chicago resident Helen<br />

Baldwin, turning 100 was<br />

a time of merriment.<br />

“I thank the Lord for all<br />

the good things he gives<br />

us,” she said. “We thank<br />

Him. We’ll go around there,<br />

and we’ll help other people.<br />

Thank you, Lord, for all the<br />

wonderful things you give<br />

us.”<br />

The morning of July 5<br />

marked a milestone for<br />

Baldwin as she sought to<br />

celebrate her birthday with a<br />

number of friends and staff<br />

at The Seniors Club, an adult<br />

day care center in Tinley<br />

Park.<br />

For one day only, the facility<br />

was decorated for the<br />

occasion with red, white and<br />

blue streamers and balloons.<br />

Guests were seated at tables<br />

topped with ornate centerpieces<br />

and were met by party<br />

favors and games to enjoy.<br />

Helen said seeing the way<br />

her friends come together to<br />

celebrate her birthday meant<br />

everything to her.<br />

“That [is] wonderful,” she<br />

said.<br />

To kickoff the festivities,<br />

those in attendance took<br />

part in chair exercises to the<br />

sounds of music.<br />

The Rev. Jerry Gunderson<br />

went on to lead guests in<br />

prayer and followed with a<br />

sermon.<br />

Baldwin echoed the sentiments<br />

Gunderson shared<br />

about the Lord and praised<br />

Him for all He has done to<br />

help her live a long, happy<br />

life.<br />

“He loves us,” she said.<br />

“He loves me.”<br />

After turning 100, Baldwin<br />

remains largely able<br />

aside from use of a walker<br />

and some difficulty hearing.<br />

“I’m doing OK,” Baldwin<br />

said.<br />

Helen’s daughter-in-law,<br />

Linda, went on to agree,<br />

and said apart from mood<br />

swings, her mother-in-law<br />

continues to do well with the<br />

help of vitamins and a remarkably<br />

healthy diet.<br />

Linda and her husband,<br />

Jonathon, take care of Helen<br />

when she is not spending<br />

time at The Seniors Club.<br />

They had a big celebration<br />

for Helen at their church the<br />

Sunday prior to her birthday.<br />

Helen said she likes the<br />

effort put in by The Seniors<br />

Club to make her birthday<br />

special.<br />

The Seniors Club staff<br />

brought out all of Helen’s favorites<br />

to celebrate her birthday,<br />

including some of her<br />

artwork and poetry.<br />

“Is that me at 100?” Helen<br />

asked, motioning toward a<br />

self portrait she had completed.<br />

“That’s me when I was so<br />

beautiful,” Helen continued.<br />

The Seniors Club manager<br />

Andrea Kirkton said she has<br />

known Helen for the last six<br />

years.<br />

“She’s still just as vibrant<br />

as when I met her,” Kirkton<br />

said. “She enjoys herself<br />

everyday — funny, loving<br />

[woman].”<br />

Kirkton credits Helen’s<br />

son, Jonathon, for helping<br />

her to live a long, happy life.<br />

“He’s taken care of her for<br />

many, many years,” she said.<br />

“Her husband died – I want<br />

to say – in 2010. Jonathon<br />

has been taking care of her<br />

for a while, and God. She<br />

loves her God. He’s been<br />

very good.”<br />

Helen stays active at The<br />

Seniors Club by playing<br />

bingo, singing and having<br />

fun on a daily basis with her<br />

friends at the club.<br />

“Like I said, she’s doing<br />

well and she’s upright,”<br />

Linda said. “She’s doing<br />

well because she goes to<br />

The Seniors Club, and she is<br />

around people. She always<br />

has something to do. I never<br />

would’ve thought she’d turn<br />

100.”

New Tinley yoga studio offers good vibes for all<br />

Brittany Kapa, Assistant Editor<br />

Patricia Paloumpis said<br />

that in the four years leading<br />

up to opening Vibe Yoga<br />

Room the path was never<br />

straight.<br />

Having worn many different<br />

hats throughout her life,<br />

the 51-year-old had a vision<br />

of what the open space next<br />

to her husband’s chiropractic<br />

business, Beyer Natural<br />

Health Solutions, would<br />

look like.<br />

That vision sprung to<br />

life June 25 as Paloumpis<br />

opened Vibe Yoga Room.<br />

Having noticed a lack of a<br />

yoga studios in Tinley Park,<br />

Paloumpis “super charged”<br />

her desire to get Vibe Yoga<br />

Room up and running.<br />

“I just had a really strong<br />

urge to make yoga more<br />

accessible,” Paloumpis<br />

said. “I wanted to kind of<br />

cut through everything and<br />

make it a little more basic<br />

and accessible.”<br />

She added that she wanted<br />

Vibe to be a place where<br />

someone who is experienced<br />

in yoga could come and get<br />

a really good practice. At the<br />

same time, she wanted the<br />

space to be friendly enough,<br />

so those new to yoga would<br />

feel comfortable starting<br />

their journey at Vibe.<br />

“I’m really enjoying meeting<br />

all of the Tinley Park yogis,”<br />

Paloumpis said about<br />

the studio’s first week of<br />

business. “They are coming<br />

out of the woodwork.<br />

They are finding us and they<br />

are coming in and saying,<br />

‘Thank you for opening up.’<br />

“What I would love this to<br />

bring is a sense of renewal,<br />

health and just that whole<br />

happy, good vibe.”<br />

That is where the name has<br />

come from. When Paloumpis<br />

was struggling to find a<br />

name for her studio, she had<br />

been talking about the different<br />

aspects of the business<br />

with her husband. Each time<br />

she described a section of the<br />

Vibe Yoga Room<br />

17021 S. Harlem Ave. in<br />

Tinley Park<br />

For more information...<br />

Phone: (708) 844-8504<br />

Web: vibeyogaroom.com<br />

business – whether it was the<br />

space’s décor or the teachers<br />

– she would describe it as a<br />

“vibe.”<br />

‘We offer ourselves’<br />

Throughout the planning<br />

process for the studio, there<br />

was one aspect of the business<br />

that just seemed to fall<br />

in place for Paloumpis: her<br />

staff.<br />

Having started her relationship<br />

with yoga in 2004,<br />

and after gaining her teaching<br />

certificate in 2014,<br />

Paloumpis has developed<br />

lasting relationships with<br />

other instructors.<br />

Sherie Sloane, of Mokena,<br />

found yoga after a taekwondo<br />

injury. The two met<br />

at another studio and now<br />

Sloane teaches a few classes<br />

at Vibe.<br />

“We practiced at another<br />

studio together and then we<br />

developed this community<br />

and became friends,” Sloane<br />

said about her relationship<br />

with not only Paloumpis but<br />

also Jenn Christiansen, another<br />

instructor at the studio.<br />

“That’s why I think what’s<br />

good with Vibe is the foundation<br />

of the people working<br />

together. There is a bond,<br />

and I think that will make<br />

this studio stand out.”<br />

Christiansen adds that they<br />

are also a humble bunch of<br />

individuals because they all<br />

realize they have not learned<br />

everything there is to know<br />

about the practice of yoga.<br />

“We offer ourselves – a<br />

very authentic self,” Christiansen<br />

said. “We share<br />

our own practice and what<br />

we’ve learned from our own<br />

experience.<br />

“Yoga is more than just<br />

The Evolution of a POse<br />

Vasisthasana: Side Plank<br />

Strengthens: core, upper-body and balance<br />

Health benefits: By strengthening the intercostal muscles (several muscles that run along the body’s ribs) in<br />

conjunction with breathing, the pose can help to strengthen the internal muscles around vital organs, such as the<br />

lungs.<br />

Vibe instructor Jenn Christiansen models the progression of one yoga move starting from a beginner pose to an<br />

advanced version of the same pose.<br />

1. Beginners<br />

2. Full expression<br />

3. Variation<br />

downward facing dog. It’s<br />

not just about the practice.<br />

For me, I come from a traumatic<br />

background, so it’s<br />

been a very healing practice<br />

for me.”<br />

Christiansen and Sloane<br />

both stressed that everyone<br />

starts somewhere and beginners<br />

should not expect to be<br />

able to do each pose perfectly<br />

upon their first try.<br />

“When you fail at something,<br />

you don’t pack up<br />

your bags and leave,” she<br />

added. “The seed is planted,<br />

hopefully, and you can laugh<br />

at yourself. We’re not perfect.<br />

We’re all human.”<br />

Sloane said that even<br />

something as simple as<br />

breathing can be considered<br />

a practice of yoga.<br />

“I really feel like yoga is<br />

a life practice,” Sloane said.<br />

“If you can breathe, you<br />

can do yoga. The first tenet<br />

of yoga is breathing practice.<br />

So, if you’re just being<br />

mindful in your car, I would<br />

call that yoga.”<br />

‘A happy mother is a happy<br />

family’<br />

Yogis of all levels can find<br />

a class that suits their skills.<br />

Vibe also offers a service<br />

called “Kids in Queue.” Certain<br />

classes will have a corresponding<br />

“Kids in Queue”<br />

4. Advanced<br />

time where parents can drop<br />

off their little ones to be<br />

watched by the studio’s CPR<br />

certified attendant.<br />

“A happy mother is a happy<br />

family,” Paloumpis jokes<br />

of why she wanted to offer<br />

photos by Brittany Kapa/22nd Century Media<br />

that service.<br />

She wanted to give moms<br />

and dads an hour that would<br />

not only be good for their<br />

bodies but the minds, as<br />

well, by creating a stressfree<br />

environment for all.<br />

The tinley Junction’s<br />

Standout Student<br />

Sponsored by Marquette Bank<br />

Tyler Milhouse,<br />

Lincoln-Way East<br />

High School<br />

incoming junior<br />

Tyler Milhouse was chosen<br />

as this week’s Standout<br />

Student for her academic<br />

excellence<br />

What is one essential you<br />

must have when studying<br />

and why?<br />

I often find I am most<br />

successful when studying if<br />

I have a game plan. Being<br />

aware of my intentions with<br />

a study session, such as how<br />

long I will study, what subjects<br />

I will study, and the order<br />

in which I will study are<br />

all essential to my success.<br />

What do you like to do when<br />

not in school or studying?<br />

I like to participate in athletics,<br />

particularly running.<br />

I run on my school’s track<br />

and cross country team. I<br />

enjoy becoming strong mentally<br />

and faster physically<br />

throughout both seasons and<br />

pushing myself to achieve a<br />

personal record.<br />

What is your dream job and<br />

why?<br />

My dream job would be<br />

to work for myself and to<br />

help others. I like the idea<br />

of being the boss lady and<br />

I strongly believe in world<br />

improvement. I would like<br />

to manage and own several<br />

free clinic locations throughout<br />

the world.<br />

Photo submitted<br />

Whom do you look up to and<br />

why?<br />

My parents (Tina and Wilber<br />

Milhouse), whom I both<br />

respect and admire. Along<br />

with motivating and challenging<br />

me, they have imparted<br />

values and countless<br />

important life lessons that I<br />

am thankful for. They both<br />

embody a strong sense of responsibility<br />

and accountability<br />

with resilience that they<br />

have developed in me.<br />

Who is your favorite teacher<br />

and why?<br />

I have been fortunate to<br />

have many great teachers<br />

who have all been special to<br />

me in their own way. Nonetheless,<br />

my favorite is my<br />

eighth-grade English teacher<br />

and seventh-grade basketball<br />

coach, Ms. Canter (Summit<br />

Hill Junior High). She pushed<br />

me when she saw that I was<br />

not being challenged to my<br />

full capacity. She empowered<br />

me to see the beauty in my<br />

writing and writing itself.<br />

She taught beyond the grammatical<br />

facts and memorization<br />

of vocab words. Plus, we<br />

think along the same lines.<br />

What is your favorite class<br />

and why?<br />

English is my favorite<br />

class, and kind of always<br />

has been. It has encouraged<br />

me to become analytically<br />

minded, and offered me<br />

new, varying perspectives.<br />

English has actively contributed<br />

to who I am. It has<br />

helped develop my ideas and<br />

beliefs, enabling me to grow<br />

each year both intellectually<br />

as well as theoretically.<br />

What is one thing that<br />

stands out about your<br />

school?<br />

We are Lincoln-Way<br />

united. I think that the<br />

sense of community within<br />

my school is one thing that<br />

stands out about it. I love the<br />

friendliness among both the<br />

students and faculty. I recognize<br />

Lincoln-Way East as<br />

my home away from home.<br />

If you could change one thing<br />

about school, what would<br />

it be?<br />

If I could change one thing<br />

about my school, I would<br />

offer the option of having<br />

lunch, study hall or even<br />

class outside on a nice day to<br />

have a break from the normal<br />

routine of the school day.<br />

What is your best memory<br />

from school?<br />

Although this is not my<br />

fondest memory, during my<br />

freshman year in honors biology<br />

— I think it was our<br />

last project of the year — my<br />

teacher announced that we<br />

would be doing dissection<br />

on an actual rat. The day the<br />

rats arrived in the classroom,<br />

my fear of rodents was confirmed.<br />

A few tears rolled<br />

down my cheek because I<br />

feared having to touch it, not<br />

to mention being surrounded<br />

by them in class. I ended up<br />

doing an online simulation<br />

in the comfort of the hallway<br />

that week.<br />

FROM THE NEW LENOX PATRIOT<br />

New Lenox native earns big<br />

role with FSU softball as<br />

freshman<br />

Dani Morgan made a<br />

splash right away as an athlete,<br />

when she entered Lincoln-Way<br />

West as a freshman<br />

in 2013.<br />

Unfortunately for the Warriors,<br />

Morgan’s father got a<br />

job transfer in 2015. So, she<br />

did not get to attend her senior<br />

year at the school.<br />

But that certainly did not<br />

slow her athletic endeavors.<br />

JOIN US AT OUR<br />

TOO BUSY<br />

FOR BRACES<br />

NIGHT<br />

Morgan recently completed<br />

her freshman softball season<br />

at Florida State University,<br />

where she stepped in right<br />

away, becoming a starter and<br />

key contributor on one of the<br />

best softball programs in the<br />

nation.<br />

Morgan, who is majoring<br />

in psychology, played in 62<br />

games, starting 58 of them in<br />

left field. She finished with a<br />

.318 batting average, while<br />

scoring 42 runs and knocking<br />

in 36. Morgan was 9-for-9 in<br />

stolen bases and had 20 extra<br />

base hits — including 11<br />

doubles and five home runs.<br />

“When I moved to Georgia,<br />

I had to start over to prove<br />

myself again,” Morgan said.<br />

“Then, I went to FSU and had<br />

to prove myself again. But my<br />

coaches at FSU are amazing.<br />

They make you want to play<br />

softball. I worked hard and<br />

did what I could do.”<br />

FROM THE HOMER HORIZON<br />

LTHS grad makes most of<br />

current job in Malibu<br />

As Sarah Otteman rounds<br />

the final turn of Malibu Canyon<br />

on her way to work, and<br />

the Pacific Ocean stretches<br />

warmly in front of her, she<br />

realizes she is a long way<br />

from home. And a smile<br />

creeps across her face.<br />

“There’s moments where<br />

I’m driving through the canyon,<br />

it’s 8:30 in the morning,”<br />

she said. “The sun<br />

is shining and glistening<br />

through the clouds in the<br />

mountains and the haze, and<br />

then you pull around that<br />

corner and it’s the ocean.<br />

It’s one of moments where<br />

it’s like, ‘I’m happy right<br />

now.’”<br />

The Lockport Township<br />

High School graduate is the<br />

assistant director of athletic<br />

communications at Pepperdine<br />

University, and she is<br />

soaking up the sights and<br />

experiences every step of<br />

the way.<br />

In her role with the Waves,<br />

she covers men’s and women’s<br />

beach volleyball, men’s<br />

and women’s tennis, and assists<br />

with men’s and women’s<br />

basketball, managing the<br />

university’s athletic website<br />

and social media platforms<br />

for all the aforementioned<br />

sports. She also updates all<br />

the athletes’ and coaches’ biographies,<br />

and takes stats and<br />

photos at games.<br />

celebration started for Orland<br />

Ave Giblin does not usually<br />

finish ahead of her twin<br />

brother when it comes to running<br />

races.<br />

The 11-year-old not only<br />

beat him out at the Liberty<br />

Family Run/Walk but also<br />

crossed the finish line before<br />

every other female runner in<br />

the field.<br />

“I’m happy to win against<br />

everyone,” Ave said. “And I<br />

felt accomplished, because he<br />

usually wins. He usually does<br />

a lot better than me. I felt really<br />

good after winning.”<br />

Ave was one of 172 runners<br />

who competed in Orland<br />

Park’s annual Liberty Family<br />

Run/Walk June 30 at Centennial<br />

Park.<br />

The 2-mile run is the start<br />

Letters to the editor<br />

‘Where are all the flags?’<br />

My parents moved to<br />

Tinley Park in 1944, I<br />

have always loved Tinley<br />

Park, I went to Arbor Park<br />

Elementary School while<br />

it was on 159th street near<br />

Cicero. When I got married,<br />

I moved into Chicago to be<br />

closer to work but when I<br />

started my family I moved<br />

back to Tinley Park because<br />

I truly believe “It’s a great<br />

place to raise a family.”<br />

I go down 159th a lot and<br />

when I see all the flags they<br />

have in Oak Forest, it gives<br />

me chill bumps. Then when I<br />

get into Tinley Park, “Where<br />

were all the flags?” My husband<br />

was in World War II and<br />

so were a lot of my friends. I<br />

have nieces, nephews, uncles<br />

and my two brothers that<br />

were in the service.<br />

“Where are all the<br />

flags???”<br />

All I counted were six<br />

flags going down Oak Park<br />

Ave. I was so disappointed,<br />

I called utilities (because<br />

that’s where I was told to<br />

call) they told me the flags<br />

block the view of the street<br />

signs, “they never stopped<br />

those flags from flying before,<br />

and they were too<br />

high.”<br />

I was also told there are<br />

a lot of pretty flower baskets<br />

hanging along the way.<br />

Well, our service men and<br />

women didn’t fight for the<br />

flower baskets. They fought<br />

for the freedom of our country<br />

and the flag represents<br />

our country. We should be<br />

proud to fly our flag and<br />

the only time I see where<br />

the whole U.S.A. proudly<br />

flies our flag to show our<br />

independence is on Independence<br />

day. After my call<br />

they put up some more flags,<br />

I think I counted 21 and that<br />

was counting the flags we<br />

always see by the banks or<br />

train station and VFW. Nothing<br />

from 171st Street to the<br />

train station. Nothing.<br />

It’s very disheartening<br />

when our town can’t show<br />

our service people how<br />

much we appreciate the men<br />

& women that took time out<br />

of their lives, and the families<br />

that lost loved ones so<br />

we could have our freedom.<br />

You would think that being<br />

a life long resident of Tinley<br />

Park, the Mayor would show<br />

his pride, not just in Tinley<br />

Park, but in our country and<br />

our service men an women.<br />

‘125 Amplified’ reflects on Village of Tinley Park’s rich history<br />

Brittany Kapa, Assistant Editor<br />

The Village of Tinley Park<br />

has developed a long and<br />

rich history over the last 125<br />

years.<br />

From humble German<br />

roots, the original village<br />

of New Bremen eventually<br />

changed its name to Tinley<br />

Park in honor of Samuel<br />

Tinley, the first train station<br />

attendant. In June of 1892,<br />

those in the town voted to<br />

incorporate and since that<br />

point, the village has been<br />

known as Tinley Park.<br />

Lifelong residents, such<br />

as Brad Bettenhausen, have<br />

seen firsthand the growth<br />

Tinley Park has made<br />

throughout the last few decades.<br />

“In my youth, the population<br />

of the town was about<br />

6,000 people,” Bettenhausen<br />

wrote in an email to The<br />

Junction. “Harlem Avenue<br />

was not a through street until<br />

the late 1960s. It existed<br />

for short stretches between<br />

183rd Street and 143rd<br />

Street.”<br />

That same train station<br />

Samuel Tinley worked at<br />

has helped to develop Tinley<br />

Park from a small village<br />

of less than 1,000 people at<br />

the time of its incorporation<br />

in 1892 to one that has over<br />

60,000 residents.<br />

“We now have a lot more<br />

choices in styles and sizes of<br />

homes,” Bettenhausen said<br />

about the town’s growth.<br />

“We also have a lot of shopping<br />

opportunities as well as<br />

a lot more opportunities for<br />

employment within the community<br />

than [what] existed<br />

when I was younger.”<br />

They say it’s your birthday<br />

To honor those vast<br />

changes, the Village of Tinley<br />

Park is changing up this<br />

year’s annual block party.<br />

Originally known as the<br />

Caribbean Block Party, the<br />

World War II soldiers gathered at Saenger Hall in 1946 for a<br />

night of music and dancing in honor of their service.<br />

summer bash held along Oak<br />

Park Avenue has provided<br />

entertainment for the young<br />

and old.<br />

However, this particular<br />

theme did not seem to fitting<br />

of Tinley’s milestone.<br />

Thus, the idea for “125<br />

Amplified” was born.<br />

“125 Amplified” is open<br />

to the public, and festivities<br />

are to take place from noon<br />

to 7 p.m. Sunday, July 16.<br />

“Combining a birthday<br />

and a Caribbean theme<br />

doesn’t really make a whole<br />

lot of sense,” said Vicki Sanchez,<br />

special events coordinator.<br />

“We wanted to do<br />

something special to mark<br />

the 125th birthday [of the<br />

Village].”<br />

The name is indicative of<br />

two things near and dear to<br />

Tinley’s heart – the first being<br />

the village’s history. The<br />

the second is a nod to the village’s<br />

involvement in music<br />

and entertainment.<br />

“125 Amplified” also joins<br />

in on the village’s recent effort<br />

to re-brand Tinley Park<br />

into a music center. Sanchez<br />

said that the timing of the<br />

two events just fit together<br />

well.<br />

“We’ll have some new<br />

brand-awareness banners<br />

and things like that, so to be<br />

able to push that out at the<br />

same time as [the celebration]<br />

is great,” Sanchez said.<br />

Many local businesses<br />

around Tinley Park are lending<br />

their services to providing<br />

interesting and musicthemed<br />

activities throughout<br />

the day.<br />

“All of our Tinley Park<br />

dance studios are involved,”<br />

Sanchez said, adding every<br />

studio has a special activity<br />

for children to partake in.<br />

Inflatables, crafts and a<br />

zip line – which costs $8 to<br />

participate – are just some of<br />

the fun activities planned for<br />

the younger residents.<br />

Interactive activities will<br />

also be available at the party.<br />

Sanchez added one fun<br />

activity, which is new this<br />

year, will get a little help<br />

from local boutique salon,<br />

The Station. Residents can<br />

get a rockstar hairstyle and<br />

pose for photos in front of a<br />

green screen that will reflect<br />

a superimposed concert.<br />

And that’s just the beginning.<br />

“We have House of Music<br />

that will be doing a drum circles<br />

from noon until 4 p.m.,”<br />

Sanchez said. “That is something<br />

else that is totally different<br />

that we’ve never done<br />

before.<br />

“What’s kind of cool about<br />

that, too, is you don’t have<br />

to have any musical experience<br />

at all. So, you can just<br />

jump in and [House of Music<br />

staff] will instruct you on<br />

what to do with the different<br />

percussion instruments that<br />

they’re bringing.”<br />

Plenty of live music will<br />

round out the day’s activities.<br />

The Illinois Battle of<br />

This 1943 photo depicts a mound of metal that was collected from a metal drive as part of<br />

the ongoing efforts of Tinley Park residents to help during World War II. Photos Submitted<br />

the Bands will be hosting<br />

its Tinley Park leg of the<br />

competition for local youth<br />

bands. Other performers<br />

include Midnight, Blooze<br />

Brother and Bella Cain. Former<br />

“American Idol” contestant<br />

Gina Glocksen is to<br />

perform her act as the Gina<br />

Glocksen Band.<br />

Every detail has been<br />

thought of – even down to<br />

the decorations. With the<br />

help of the historical society,<br />

Sanchez was able to feature<br />

photos that showcase the<br />

great musical talent that has<br />

set foot in Tinley Park over<br />

the years.<br />

“The historical society<br />

was awesome sending us<br />

pictures,” she said. “I specifically<br />

asked for music related<br />

pictures to use throughout<br />

our branding process and for<br />

various projects.”<br />

And those images can be<br />

seen printed on balloons<br />

near the stage.<br />

“What I’m excited about<br />

is trying to get other people<br />

excited about the fact that<br />

Tinley Park is 125 years<br />

old,” Sanchez said. “It’s really<br />

something to celebrate.”<br />

OPPORTUNITY<br />

Pride of Workmanship - Pride of Ownership at Brookside Meadows<br />

For over 45 years Crana Homes commitment to quality<br />

and customer satisfaction has been summed up as “Pride<br />

of Workmanship - Pride of Ownership.” These words are<br />

the foundation of every one of the hundreds and hundreds<br />

of new homes that Crana Homes has developed into<br />

amazing communities. Now the luxury townhomes of<br />

Brookside Meadows in Tinley Park is where home buyers<br />

once again find unrivaled quality in a Crana home.<br />

But pride in workmanship is only the first part of the<br />

promise. The second part is pride of ownership - the<br />

key to customer satisfaction. Crana Homes meets with<br />

buyers to discuss what they need and want in a new<br />

home. Working closely with customers gives the insight<br />

and understanding needed for the kind of customer<br />

satisfaction that lasts long after a home is finished. This<br />

makes a Crana home not only attractive and comfortable<br />

but also a great investment.<br />

Today, Crana Homes’ legacy culminates in Brookside<br />

Meadows’ newly opened Phase II, a community of awardwinning,<br />

energy-efficient homes that sets the standard for<br />

luxury townhomes. Whether you’re a first time buyer, an<br />

upsizer, downsizer or just looking for a great place to raise<br />

a family early buyers still have plenty of choices available<br />

in the latest and final phase of this quiet, secluded section<br />

in Tinley Park.<br />

The split level Fahan II is a beautiful 3,303 total square<br />

Contact the Sales Center for details at 708.479.5111<br />

and visit online any time at www.cranahomes.com<br />

foot home (including a 1,216’ basement). It has three<br />

bedrooms and two-and-half baths with a two-car garage<br />

and a cement driveway. A fourth bedroom is optional. The<br />

large open kitchen has custom maple cabinets and elegant<br />

granite countertops. Maple cabinets are also found in the<br />

batherooms and laundry room. Overlooking the great<br />

room is regal loft. Gorgeous oak is used on floors, doors,<br />

railings and trim throughout. Ceramic floor tile covers<br />

the foyer and the bathrooms - which also feature cultured<br />

marble vanity tops. A full walkout or lookout basement<br />

and a deck is included.<br />

Another award-winning design is the Lennan II, a<br />

comfortable two/three bedroom split level home that<br />

includes most of the features of the Fahan II except the<br />

spacious master suite is located on the upper level and<br />

a cathedral ceiling is available as an option. The Lennan<br />

II totals 3,167 square feet of space (including a 1,049’<br />

basement) and a two-car garage with cement driveway.<br />

With Phase II prices holding in the upper-$200s (including<br />

site), buyers are finding some extra room for options like<br />

a fireplace, coffered ceilings, skylights and a soaker tub<br />

in the master bath.<br />

All homes at Brookside Meadows include cost-efficient,<br />

energy-saving features like a high-efficiency furnace and<br />

Lo-E glass installed throughout. Other ‘green’ features<br />

include an Energy Miser hot water heater, vented soffits,<br />

1.75” insulated entrance doors, energy efficient appliances<br />

and Tuff-R insulated wall sheathing. Underground utilities<br />

and sprinklers are standard and Lake Michigan water is<br />

on tap.<br />

What’s more, Brookside Meadows’ location is a winner!<br />

Tinley Park has been rated as “The Best Place in America<br />

to Raise a Family,” by Bloomberg BusinessWeek. Tinley<br />

lives up to that title with: highly rated schools, dozens<br />

of parks and playgrounds, proximity to stores and malls<br />

plus all the recreation, cultural events and dining of a<br />

neighboring world class city. Major highways and the<br />

Metra commuter line are just minutes away.<br />

See for yourself why ‘Pride of Workmanship, Pride of<br />

Ownership’ are words to live by in every Crana Home.<br />

Choice sites are still available for early buyers. The<br />

Sales Center and fully decorated model homes are open<br />

Monday through Thursday from 10:00am to 4:00pm;<br />

Saturday and Sunday from noon to 4:00pm; and Friday<br />

Build and Move into Your New Home from the low $200s<br />

With Lincoln-Way Schools at Prairie Trails in Manhattan<br />

Distinctive Home Builders provides homeowners the<br />

highest quality home on the market<br />

Distinctive Home Builders<br />

continues to add high quality<br />

homes to the Manhattan<br />

landscape at Prairie Trails; its<br />

latest new home community,<br />

located within the highly-regarded<br />

Lincoln-Way School<br />

District. Many families are<br />

happy to call Prairie Trails<br />

home and are pleased that<br />

Distinctive is able to deliver a<br />

new home with zero punch list<br />

items in 90 days. Before closing,<br />

each home undergoes an<br />

industry-leading checklist that<br />

ensures each home measures<br />

up to the firm’s high quality<br />

standards.<br />

“Actually our last average<br />

was 81 working days from excavation<br />

to receiving a home<br />

occupancy permit - without<br />

sacrificing quality,” said Bryan<br />

Nooner, president of Distinctive<br />

Home Builders. “Everyone<br />

at the company works<br />

extremely hard to continually<br />

achieve this delivery goal for<br />

our homeowners. Our three<br />

decades building homes provides<br />

this efficient construction<br />

system. Many of our<br />

skilled craftsmen have been<br />

working with our company for<br />

Recently closed Prairie Trails Arbor Model<br />

over 20 years. We also take<br />

pride on having excellent communicators<br />

throughout our<br />

organization. This translates<br />

into a positive buying and<br />

building experience for our<br />

homeowners and one of the<br />

highest referral rates in the industry<br />

for Distinctive.”<br />

In all, buyers can select<br />

from 13 ranch, split-level and<br />

six two-story single-family<br />

home styles; each offering<br />

three to eight different exterior<br />

elevations. The three- to<br />

four-bedroom homes feature<br />

two to two-and-one-half<br />

baths, two- to three-car garages<br />

and a family room, all in<br />

approximately 1,600 to over<br />

3,000 square feet of living<br />

space. Basements are included<br />

in most models as well. Distinctive<br />

also encourages customization<br />

to make your new<br />

home truly personalized to<br />

suit your lifestyle.<br />

Oversize home sites; brick<br />

exteriors on all four sides of<br />

the first floor; custom maple<br />

cabinets; ceramic tile or hardwood<br />

floors in the kitchen,<br />

baths and foyer; genuine wood<br />

trim and doors; granite countertops<br />

and concrete driveways<br />

can all be yours at Prairie<br />

Trails. All home sites at Prairie<br />

Trails can accommodate a<br />

three-car garage; a very important<br />

amenity to the Manhattan<br />

homebuyer, according<br />

to Nooner.<br />

“When we opened Prairie<br />

Trails we wanted to provide<br />

the best new home value for<br />

the dollar and we feel with<br />

offering Premium Standard<br />

Features that we do just that.<br />

So why wait? This is truly the<br />

best time to build your dream<br />

home!”<br />

Distinctive offers custom<br />

maple kitchen cabinets featuring<br />

solid wood construction<br />

(no particle board), have solid<br />

wood drawers with dove tail<br />

joints, which is very rare in the<br />

marketplace. “When you buy<br />

a new home from Distinctive,<br />

you truly are receiving custom<br />

made cabinets in every home<br />

we sell no matter what the<br />

price range,” noted Nooner.<br />

Nooner added that all<br />

homes are highly energy efficient.<br />

Every home built will<br />

have upgraded wall and ceiling<br />

insulation values with<br />

Recently closed Prairie Trails Arbor Model<br />

energy efficient windows and<br />

high efficiency furnaces. Before<br />

homeowners move into<br />

their new home, Distinctive<br />

Home Builders conducts a<br />

blower door test that pressurizes<br />

the home to ensure that<br />

each home passes a set of very<br />

stringent Energy Efficiency<br />

guidelines.<br />

Typically a wide variety of<br />

homes are available to tour<br />

that include ranch and twostory<br />

homes.<br />

Distinctive is also offering<br />

a brand new home, the<br />

Stonegrove, a 3,000 square<br />

foot open concept home with a<br />

split foyer entry, formal living<br />

and dining rooms, a two-story<br />

great room, four bedrooms<br />

and an upstairs laundry room.<br />

Distinctive also offers Appbased<br />

technology allowing its<br />

homeowners to be updated<br />

on the progress of their new<br />

home 24 hours a day, seven<br />

days a week at the touch of a<br />

button.<br />

Prairie Trails is also a beautiful<br />

place to live featuring a<br />

20-acre lake on site, as well<br />

as direct access to the 22-mile<br />

Wauponsee Glacial Prairie<br />

Path that borders the community<br />

and meanders through<br />

many neighboring communities<br />

and links to many other<br />

popular trails. The Manhattan<br />

Metra station is also nearby.<br />

Besides Prairie Trails, Distinctive<br />

Home Builders has<br />

built hundreds of homes<br />

throughout Manhattan in the<br />

Butternut Ridge and Leighlinbridge<br />

developments, as well<br />

as thousands in the Will and<br />

south Cook county areas over<br />

the past 30 years.<br />

How did you get started<br />

playing baseball?<br />

I just watched it a lot and<br />

I started liking it and then I<br />

started playing it.<br />

What do you like about<br />

the game?<br />

What I like about it is that<br />

I get to play with friends<br />

and that I’m good at it. I just<br />

stuck with it.<br />

You play three<br />

positions, which is your<br />

favorite to play?<br />

Pitcher. It’s fun and it’s<br />

fun to learn new pitches. It’s<br />

fun to have competition; it’s<br />

fun to strike people out.<br />

What is your favorite<br />

pitch to throw out?<br />

Probably a curve ball. My<br />

coach that taught me was a<br />

college pitcher.<br />

What is the most<br />

challenging part about<br />

playing baseball?<br />

The tournaments we’ve<br />

gone through. Our coach<br />

good teams.<br />

Math, because it’s the easiest<br />

for me.<br />

Where is the most<br />

interesting place you<br />

lives out there.<br />

What is your favorite<br />

TV show?<br />

I don’t really watch TV<br />

that much, but if [I had to<br />

choose] it would be “Family<br />

Guy”.<br />

the Blaze had played outnumbered<br />

on the field, as<br />

they struggled to field a full<br />

hard work from all the boys<br />

and the leadership of captain<br />

Nick Lindgren, they were<br />

able to become state champions<br />

in just its third year of<br />

forming the team.<br />

although only one run was<br />

earned. Thunderbolts pitchers<br />

Max Smyth and Ryan<br />

McGuire allowed only two<br />

of Providence’s first 10 batters<br />

to reach base, one on a hit<br />

batsman and one on a walk<br />

that was immediately erased<br />

with a pickoff.<br />

Providence sent 12 batters<br />

to the plate in the fourth, starting<br />

with Anderson’s leadoff<br />

single. Walsh drove in two<br />

runs on a double, Ben Vitas<br />

doubled home a run, Mucha<br />

had a two-run single, and Tyler<br />

Struck had an RBI single.<br />

Anderson drove in two runs<br />

with an opposite-field double<br />

in his second at-bat of<br />

the inning, and he scored on<br />

Landy’s RBI single.<br />

Andrew drew a basesloaded<br />

walk in the fourth and<br />

another in the fifth to pull<br />

within 9-5.<br />

Providence went up 12-5<br />

in the sixth inning when Jake<br />

Hesselmann had a pinch-hit<br />

RBI single, Landy had an<br />

RBI sacrifice fly, and Brennan<br />

Geers scored on an error.<br />

In the seventh inning, Andrew<br />

loaded the bases for<br />

the third time in four innings<br />

but managed only three runs.<br />

Weert had an RBI double and<br />

scored on a fielder’s choice,<br />

and Nolan Fazel drove in<br />

one run on a single to end the<br />

scoring at 12-8.<br />

“You take away those two<br />

bad innings, and we’re right<br />

there,” DeHaan said. “Our<br />

kids battled again and again.<br />

I’m proud of the kids who<br />

came out to play and competed.”<br />

Allegretti<br />

From Page 39<br />

ly at strong side guard.<br />

“Last year taught me that<br />

the more I know about the offense,<br />

the better I’d be,” Allegretti<br />

said. “I felt like last<br />

year was a huge opportunity<br />

for me. It was a blast.”<br />

He also got a taste of playing<br />

center again, starting at<br />

the spot in a game against<br />

Murray State when starter<br />

Joe Spencer was out with an<br />

injury.<br />

Allegretti credits Spencer<br />

and others for learning not<br />

only the physical aspects of<br />

college football but also the<br />

mental, more leadership-involved<br />

traits.<br />

“The first three years, I got<br />

to play under guys like Mike<br />

Heitz and Alex Hill, and<br />

Teddy Karras for two years<br />

and Joe Spencer,” he said. “I<br />

got to learn from all of those<br />

dudes. I think I’ve learned<br />

a lot about leadership from<br />

them.”<br />

And those leadership lessons<br />

were invaluable, especially<br />

considering the turnover<br />

the Illini have had on<br />

the coaching staff during Allegretti’s<br />

time at the school.<br />

“I got here, and the first<br />

three years we had three<br />

[different] head coaches,” he<br />

said. “It was tough, and not<br />

what I expected obviously.<br />

But after the last coaching<br />

change and Coach [Lovie]<br />

Smith came in, I feel like<br />

the whole team [thought] the<br />

athletic department found us<br />

a coach we can win with.”<br />

Allegretti said the biggest<br />

difference since Smith took<br />

over the program is the way<br />

the program is run.<br />

“It’s run like an NFL program,”<br />

he said. “We come in,<br />

go to film, get treatment and<br />

go to practice. It’s a very efficient<br />

program, and we don’t<br />

waste any time. If we are at<br />

the stadium, we are doing<br />

something productive.”<br />

Going into this season, Allegretti<br />

is slated for a bigger<br />

role on the offensive line —<br />

something he’s ready for.<br />

“The Big Ten is a tough<br />

conference, a physical conference,”<br />

he said. “No matter<br />

what team you are or where<br />

your program is at, if you<br />

want to win a single game in<br />

the Big Ten, it is going to be<br />

hard.<br />

“But I think we have the<br />

ability to go out there and<br />

win a lot of games this year.<br />

We have a lot of young kids,<br />

and a lot of kids who are<br />

stepping up.”<br />

He pointed to running<br />

back Kendrick Foster and<br />

quarterback Chayce Crouch,<br />

who he said has stepped up<br />

to be a leader on the team.<br />

“He’s a playmaker,” Allegretti<br />

said of the young quarterback.<br />

He said he also realizes<br />

with his age and experience,<br />

he needs to be a good example<br />

for his younger teammates.<br />

But he also has high<br />

expectations for the year.<br />

“The No. 1 most important<br />

thing we have to do is play<br />

hard and physical, no matter<br />

what,” he said. “If you<br />

go out there and have a brain<br />

freeze, come off the ball and<br />

still play hard. When we go<br />

back and watch film on Sunday,<br />

you can’t say, ‘I took<br />

that play off.’ We have the<br />

players we need and we have<br />

the talent. But if we take<br />

plays off, we’re not going to<br />

win the games we need to.<br />

We need every single player,<br />

11 at a time, and everyone on<br />

the sidelines to be engaged<br />

and give 100 percent effort.”<br />

A bright future<br />

Allegretti recognizes his<br />

playing career at Illinois is<br />

winding down, but his goal<br />

still remains to play the<br />

game as long as he possibly<br />

can.<br />

“Whether it is another<br />

two, five or 10 years …<br />

whatever it is, I want to play<br />

as long as I can,” Allegretti<br />

said. “I absolutely love the<br />

sport. There’s nothing like<br />

competing at this level.”<br />

But that doesn’t mean it is<br />

his only option. He said he<br />

will graduate in December<br />

with an accounting degree,<br />

and he has his sights set on<br />

perhaps pursuing a master’s<br />

degree.<br />

“Whenever football ends,<br />

I’m really excited to get into<br />

the business world,” he said.

“It was an awesome trip,”<br />

Koepke, a defensive back,<br />

said. “It was an experience<br />

I’ll cherish.”<br />

Winning the game was<br />

one of Koepke’s top memorable<br />

moments from the trip,<br />

he said. He had his first interception<br />

at the college<br />

level and played on special<br />

teams in the 33-6 win that<br />

saw IWU jump out to a 33-0<br />

lead.<br />

Despite the relatively easy<br />

win, Waseda University is<br />

not a no-name team in Japan.<br />

It was last season’s runner-up<br />

in Japan’s Division I,<br />

the top group, and has been<br />

playing American football<br />

since 1934.<br />

IWU coach Norm Eash<br />

compared Waseda to an<br />

NCAA Division II or top<br />

Division III team based on<br />

film, according to a news<br />

release. IWU plays in Division<br />

III.<br />

“They were at a college<br />

level, just not as good as I<br />

thought they would be,” Koepke<br />

said.<br />

He described the game<br />

atmosphere as “pretty rowdy”<br />

with fans cheering and<br />

conductors leading chants<br />

during the game. After the<br />

game, the teams got to meet<br />

each other and socialize during<br />

a barbecue.<br />

The trip helped in building<br />

team chemistry, and Koepke<br />

said he’ll remember spending<br />

time on and off the field<br />

An off-field highlight of<br />

the trip for Koepke was going<br />

to the top of the Tokyo<br />

Sky Tree, the tallest tower<br />

in the world (2,080 feet), to<br />

view Tokyo at night. There<br />

was a team boat cruise<br />

around Tokyo, as well as<br />

time to roam around the city<br />

to experience its night life.<br />

“I knew I was going to<br />

have a good time,” Koepke<br />

said. “Being there was so<br />

surreal. It was just a fun<br />

time. It blew past my expectations.<br />

Just experiencing<br />

somebody else’s culture and<br />

seeing what Japan has.”<br />

Koepke said the trip has<br />

made him more interested<br />

in visiting a foreign country<br />

again, although he’d choose<br />

somewhere other than Japan<br />

just to experience something<br />

new. He had only been out<br />

of the country once before,<br />

when he went to Mexico for<br />

an aunt’s wedding, he said.<br />

Koepke and some fellow<br />

football players took a Business<br />

of Asia class at IWU before<br />

going on the trip. Since<br />

they were on campus for football<br />

practice, the three-week<br />

class in May provided them<br />

with an introduction to Japan,<br />

the country’s history and basic<br />

things to know for travel<br />

there, among other topics.<br />

Preparation for the game<br />

required two days of practice<br />

while adjusting their<br />

bodies after a flight that took<br />

approximately 14 hours and<br />

covered 6,338 miles, according<br />

to an IWU news release.<br />

The team left on May 31 and<br />

returned on June 8.<br />

This was IWU’s sixth<br />

overseas trip since 1996, and<br />

the first to Asia. The previous<br />

five trips were to Europe.<br />

Koepke is preparing for<br />

a potentially larger role<br />

in 2017. He played in one<br />

game as a freshman in 2016<br />

and recorded three tackles.<br />

Practice begins Aug. 10,<br />

he said, and IWU’s first<br />

game is Sept. 2 against University<br />

of Wisconsin-Whitewater,<br />

which has won six<br />

Division III championships<br />

from 2007 to 2014.<br />

Andrew hones pitching skills in loss against Providence<br />

Frank Gogola<br />

Freelance Reporter<br />

Runs looked like they<br />

would be at a premium – until<br />

they were not.<br />

Providence Catholic beat<br />

Andrew in a high-scoring,<br />

12-8 affair, as a pitching duel<br />

turned into a series of offensive<br />

outbursts on Thursday,<br />

July 6, in Tinley Park. The<br />

Celtics’ nine-run fourth inning<br />

proved to be the difference.<br />

Frankfort Square resident<br />

Logan Anderson, a rising senior,<br />

was one of four Celtics<br />

who drove in two runs. Zack<br />

Landy, Jake Walsh and Jake<br />

Mucha also drove in two runs<br />

apiece.<br />

“I’m always working on<br />

my offense,” Anderson said.<br />

“Before two strikes, I try to<br />

hit a ball as far as I can. Then,<br />

really, just take the ball where<br />

it’s pitched, try not to pull a<br />

ball that I should be hitting to<br />

the right side.”<br />

Anderson’s focus has also<br />

been on improving his defense,<br />

although he was the<br />

designated hitter against Andrew.<br />

He is expecting to start<br />

full-time at third base next<br />

spring, after he played third<br />

base and rotated between first<br />

base and catcher last year because<br />

of injuries.<br />

“It’s just a calmness,” Anderson<br />

said. “Last year, I was<br />

iffy at third base to start the<br />

year. Then, I got in a groove<br />

as I started listening to my<br />

coaches. Now, there’s no<br />

nerves, because I’ve been in<br />

the footsteps. I’m just focusing<br />

on my fielding to make<br />

sure I get my feet in the right<br />

position to make the play.”<br />

Andrew’s Zach Weert and<br />

Kevin Bushnell led the Thunderbolts<br />

with two hits each.<br />

Weert went 2-for-4 with a<br />

double, two runs and one<br />

RBI. Bushnell went 2-for-4<br />

with one run scored.<br />

Bushnell, a rising senior, is<br />

expected to be a big part of<br />

Andrew’s plan for success in<br />

the coming spring. He is expected<br />

to replace power hitter<br />

Joe Oswald at first base after<br />

spending time as the designated<br />

hitter last year.<br />

“Joe taught me a lot<br />

throughout last year,” Bushnell<br />

said. “He’s a great leader.<br />

That’s going to be hard to replace<br />

that. I know I have to be<br />

a leader, and my team needs<br />

me out there. He’s taught me<br />

a lot with my swing. We went<br />

out and hit a lot. He’s been a<br />

great teacher.”<br />

Bushnell said he tries to<br />

take 100 swings every day.<br />

He also has been working on<br />

his defense by taking ground<br />

balls and fly balls. Andrew<br />

coach Dave DeHaan said<br />

likes the development he has<br />

seen from Bushnell during<br />

the summer.<br />

“He’s been a solid hitter,”<br />

DeHaan said. “He’s worked<br />

on his defense. He had some<br />

big hits in the spring, and<br />

we’re excited to have him<br />

back. We need him to be consistent<br />

at the plate and drive<br />

the ball. We want power.<br />

That’s what we got from Joe<br />

[Oswald] last year. We’re<br />

looking for someone to drive<br />

guys in.”<br />

While the offense stole the<br />

show, pitching owned the<br />

early innings. Andrew scored<br />

three runs, building a 3-0<br />

lead through three innings,<br />

competitive level. But it was fun, and<br />

I got to experience something new.”<br />

For Allegretti, the willingness to<br />

switch sides of the ball was innate.<br />

“It’s just the way I was raised,” he<br />

said. “My mom and pops taught me<br />

to do whatever I could do to get onto<br />

the field and do whatever I could for<br />

the team.”<br />

Last year, however, Allegretti was<br />

able to get back to what he does best<br />

— protecting the quarterback. In<br />

2016, his sophomore season, Allegretti<br />

started in all 12 games — most-<br />

In the early 2010s, fans of the Lincoln-Way<br />

East football team could<br />

hardly miss Nick Allegretti on the<br />

field. The standout offensive lineman<br />

was a key player on some offensive<br />

juggernauts.<br />

But now, the nation may be catching<br />

up to what those in Frankfort already<br />

knew.<br />

Allegretti, a 2014 graduate of Lincoln-Way<br />

East and current offensive<br />

lineman on the University of Illinois<br />

at Urbana-Champaign football team,<br />

has been named to the Rimington<br />

Trophy watch list. The award recognizes<br />

the nation’s top center.<br />

“I don’t even have a lot of words<br />

for it,” Allegretti said of being named<br />

to the watch list. “It’s an awesome<br />

honor to even be on that list.”<br />

Though it is an award he’s kept<br />

track of since he was a teenager, Allegretti<br />

was unaware he was on the<br />

watch list until a former teammate<br />

reached out to him.<br />

“I don’t really have social media,<br />

so I didn’t even know about it,” Allegretti<br />

said. “I actually got a text from<br />

Joe Spencer, our old center, congratulating<br />

me. I had no clue what he was<br />

talking about.”<br />

From experience to leadership<br />

Allegretti is no stranger to success.<br />

He played a crucial role on the 2012<br />

Lincoln-Way East football team that<br />

got to the Class 7A state title game.<br />

In 2013, he was selected for the U.S.<br />

Army All-American Bowl after a season<br />

in which he had 56 pancake blocks<br />

2014 Lincoln-Way East graduate and University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign running back Nick Allegretti was<br />

recently named to the Rimington Trophy watch list. University of Illinois Athletics<br />

in 2013.<br />

After being redshirted his freshman<br />

year, he played in 11 games in 2015.<br />

He mostly played at center and guard,<br />

but also on special teams. But Allegretti<br />

also showed his willingness to<br />

do whatever the team needed when<br />

an injury led to him playing defensive<br />

tackle.<br />

“I had not played defense since<br />

eighth grade,” Allegretti said. “It was<br />

a Tuesday or Wednesday of the week<br />

[leading up to the] Western Illinois<br />

game. One of my teammates went<br />

down, and we looked at our D-line,<br />

and we didn’t have many people left.<br />

We had no depth. Coach came up to<br />

me after practice and said, ‘What do<br />

you think about playing D-line?’ I<br />

said, ‘All right, let’s go!’”<br />

Allegretti moved over and, on two<br />

days of practice, he played as a rotational<br />

guy on the defensive line in<br />

the second half. The following week,<br />

against North Carolina, he got thrown<br />

in on the defensive line during the<br />

first quarter.<br />

“It was a quick turnaround,” he<br />

said, laughing. “I hadn’t played it in<br />

about six years, and never really at a<br />
