Oak Park-River Forest

Can Downers Grove North build off a 2023 season that ended in the state championship game? Can York keep rolling with a new head coach? Can Downers Grove South three-peat in the Gold? Team breakdowns, five players to watch, five can't miss games and Steve Soucie's predictions.

York looks to build off a historic season. Lyons Township and Downers Grove North are poised to challenge York and Glenbard West for Silver supremacy. Can Willowbrook return to the top of the Gold? That, plus players to watch and Steve Soucie's picks in the West Suburban preview.

The Oak Park Police Department on Thursday cited a teenager for allegedly punching a Sandwich opponent in the face following their match earlier this month at Oak Park-River Forest High School, police said.

“Man and Moon,” a co-production of 16th Street Theater in Berwyn and Dragonfly Theatre Company, is on stage in Oak Park.

Willowbrook has won five straight West Suburban Gold Division titles, while Hinsdale Central, Glenbard West and York look to be the top contenders in the Silver Division.

Glenbard West and Hinsdale Central appear to be the favorites in the West Suburban Silver. Can anyone stop Willowbrook's dominance in the West Suburban Gold?

Memorial Day events for 2021 throughout the Sauk Valley, all on Monday unless otherwise noted, include:

Junior quarterback Joey Antonietti threw for two touchdowns and ran for 101 yards, giving Lyons plenty to build on after its 18-15 season-opening loss at Oak Park-River Forest Saturday.

Glenbard West, Hinsdale Central and Willowbrook lead the way in the West Suburban Conference. Will another team emerge to challenge the heavyweights?
