DOWNERS GROVE - It was the same hop, skip and jump, but Parrker Westphal just did it better. Coming into Friday’s Class 3A Downers Grove North sectional meet, the Bolingbrook junior had gone 43 feet, 5.5 inches in the triple jump during the season. He added nearly a foot to that mark and won the sectional title by posting a 44-2.5.

SCHAUMBURG – At this point in the season, Glenbard North will take a win any way it can get it. But that doesn’t mean Panthers softball coach Josh Sanew has to be happy with how his team played in its playoff opener.

CHARLESTON – A broken toe sabotaged Simone Carr’s opportunity at an all-state performance in the 400-meter dash last year. This time around, nothing was going to stop the Glenbard North junior from standing atop the podium.

LISLE - In the end, the refrain was much the same as it was all season for Lisle’s softball team. The Lions came close but couldn’t seal the deal in a season-ending, eight-inning 5-4 loss May 14 to Aurora Central Catholic in a semifinal game of the Class 2A ACC regional.

BOLINGBROOK — At the end of the day, it was a common refrain for Bolingbrook’s baseball team. Mental mistakes and inconsistent hitting cost the Raiders in a 5-3 loss to Plainfield East in Monday’s Class 4A regional playoff game, just as they did during an up-and-down regular season.

BENSENVILLE – That’s more like it. Three days after Lisle’s baseball team survived some sloppy play to top IC Catholic Prep in a regional semifinal, the Lions played a much cleaner game as they topped Timothy Christian 7-0 Saturday.

LISLE - Ryan Kilroy pulled off quite a double at Friday’s Class 1A Lisle boys track and field sectional. The senior earned one state berth by placing second in the pole vault with a height of 10 feet, 6 inches, then earned another on the 4x800-meter relay team that finished second in 8:35.39.

BENSENVILLE – Westmont’s baseball team did something it hadn’t done most of the season. Only seven times this spring had the Sentinels failed to score four or more runs in a game. Conversely, there were 14 times they scored 10 or more runs in a game, but they couldn’t get the bats going in a 5-1 loss to Timothy Christian.

LISLE – Westmont’s boys track and field team crowned five champions and earned seven state berths at Friday’s Class 1A Lisle sectional meet at Benedictine University. In doing that, the Sentinels gave defending state champ Leo something to think about at this weekend’s state meet.
HINSDALE – Penalty kick shootouts are certainly good at one thing: stirring up emotions. Lyons Township and Wheaton Warrenville South resumed a sectional semifinal on Wednesday already in overtime from a lightning delay on Tuesday and needed penalty kicks to determine the winner.

DOWNERS GROVE - Nick Timreck just did what he's done all season long. When Downers Grove South's boys volleyball team needed a big point or a defensive stop, the senior was there as he helped the Mustangs top Glenbard West 23-25, 25-20, 25-13 in a regional championship match.
