The name of the late Central graduate became even more familiar to McArthur when she began playing soccer at Illinois State University, following the same path Heidecke had. Julie died in 1998 at the age of 19 in car accident. "There is a little memorial right outside the gate before you walk in (Adelaide Street...

What do you enjoy most about the sport? Probably the bond that I have with my team and the relationships it creates. Are you better on offense or defense? I preferred playing offense up...
The action was heating up at the Willowbrook Ice Arena Tuesday night, boards rattled by the slam of the puck, followed by the much larger crash with the impacts of players furiously chasing it. The Tuesday night match-up pitting the Hinsdale Central Hockey Club against Naperville North could be seen as one of redemption for the Red Devils after dropping the previous two in the Illinois West league playoff tournament. The team hadn’t lost two consecutive games all year, the r...

"We practiced four times a week (except for winter break) and then we've been working on it ever since." Lucente start...

Name: Michael Benington Year: senior Hometown: Hinsdale When did you start swimming competitively and why? I started club swimming in fourth grade.

You get to be a lot more of a versatile swimmer because you get to swim every stroke. It's just a really fun swim to race. I think during the off-season (with FMC...

Name: Karen Guerra Year: senior Hometown: Willowbrook What do you enjoy about the sport of bowling? It's fun. It's a relaxed game, and I'm not a naturally competitive person.
