I cover football, volleyball, cross country, basketball, baseball, softball for Daily Herald. Very fun job, topped only by coaching/watching own 2 sons play
Larkin's Wheeler-Thomas stars on both ends of the court https://t.co/bjibjACEGi via @dailyherald We have our four All-Area boys basketball teams out today including our Fox team, led by Larkin's Damari Wheeler-Thomas. Won't find a harder working player. @LarkinRoyals1
A quick break from high school tweets for this photo of my sons and I on the court celebrating the Illini’s win over iowa and big ten title last night in Champaign. What a great memory this will be.
@bhsfilliesbball looked good taking a 16-6 first q lead, then hit another gear in dominating 2nd 24-4 to lead 40-10 at half. O’Riordan 13, Swanson 12, Mahlum 9. They are 17-30 from field; saints just 3 of 20, with 18 turnovers, 13 in 2nd q. Papez leads w 4 points.
At South Elgin tonight for 4A girls basketball between 28-5 @bhsfilliesbball and 22-6 @stcegirlshoops. Whoever wins advances to state for first time…would never have guessed that considering how successful Barrington and Saints have been in their girls athletic programs.
