East vs. West as football begins - The Beacon News - Aurora (IL)

AURORA -- The first football will be separated from its tee tonight when 12 area high school teams kick off the 2001 season.The 109th game of the storied East Aurora-West Aurora rivalry will begin at 7:30 p.m. at East's Roy E. Davis Field, headlining a slate of 10 games involving area teams.

Besides East and West, Aurora Christian and Mooseheart will play the only other game that includes two teams from the Beacon News coverage area.

Marmion Academy will host Evergreen Park at 1 p.m. Saturday at Fichtel Field.

Through 108 games during a rivalry that began in 1892, the East-West series is, amazingly, deadlocked at 48-48 with 12 ties.

The Tomcats won the 100th game in 1992, before the Blackhawks won seven in a row until last year's contest -- a thriller, which East won 26-23 at West's Ken Zimmerman Field.

'When you go back and look at those rivalries that have lasted so long, they do tend to balance out,' said East's second-year coach, Al Tamberelli.

Last year, Tamberelli guided the Tomcats to their first winning season (5-4) since 1983. Meanwhile, spirits are beginning to heighten on the West Side of town, as well.

In his first year coaching the Blackhawks in 2000, Mike Runge dealt with limited luxuries.

West's varsity roster consisted of just 45 players in 2001, but the number has ballooned to 72 this season.

Runge credits the increase in personnel to this year's large junior class, which includes the first group of eighth-graders at the new Jewel Middle School in 1998.

'This is not a coaching tactic,' said Runge of his team's considerable roster, 'but our retention percentage is higher, and that's extremely important.

We're struggling with being able to coach all the kids.

It's a good problem, and we're learning how to deal with it.'

This season will be the first under the new, eight-class system which the Illinois High School Association adopted, expanding the old six-class system with the intention of allowing more schools a better opportunity to reach the postseason.

In years past, conference champions and teams finishing with 7-2 regular-season records automatically qualified for the playoffs in their respective classes, while most 6-3 teams received at-large berths.

This year, under the new system, it is likely that several 5-4 teams will qualify for postseason play.

With the exception of last year's big Class 6A schools, which will make the jump to 8A in 2001, nearly all of the teams in The Beacon News coverage area jumped at least one class from previous years.

Most coaches are taking the wait-and-see attitude before commenting on the effects the new system will have on their sport.

FALL LEAGUE BENEFITS PREP PLAYERS, WCC - The Beacon News - Aurora (IL)

It's an unusual time of the high school year to hear the call 'Play ball!'But the same October winds that disconnect leaves from trees beyond the outfield fence at Waubonsee Community College are carrying fly balls these unusually balmy fall days.

It's been that way for the last 13 autumns.

It's the Fall Baseball League at WCC, where 140 high school players (17 to 18 on each of eight teams) from 19 area schools compete five days a week -- Monday through Thursday and Saturdays.

Mark Lindo, basketball and baseball coach at Naperville North, came up with the idea 13 years ago when he was coaching the same sports at Aurora Central Catholic.

Lindo wanted to give players not involved in a fall sport an opportunity to hone their skills in baseball.

'I wanted to offer kids an opportunity to play ... to remain involved in baseball,' Lindo said.

'But only if they weren't playing another fall sport.'

Lindo talked to Denny Short (a longtime baseball instructor and coach who is now assistant baseball coach at Waubonsie Valley High School) and the two of them approached Dave Randall, athletic director and baseball coach at WCC, about the possibilities.

They would need a facility for the fall league, and WCC's offers one of the best in the area.

Randall jumped on the idea.

'I liked the idea because it gives a lot of area players a chance to see our facility and our school,' Randall said.

'And I get to see some kids. There have been a lot of times when I've been able to see some players from smaller schools who might be overlooked by recruiters.

'There are some nice college prospects playing out here every fall,' Randall added.

The three men only provide the structure for the eight-team league -- the facility and the scheduling.

The kids are on their own in playing the games.

It's sort of a structured 'sandlot' league.

'The players do all their own umpiring, lineups, everything,' said Short. 'We're just there.

We don't interfere.

The catcher calls the balls and strikes, and the infielders make the base calls.

Sometimes there are little differences of opinion, but they all get along pretty well.'

The league was designed not to interfere with fall sports in high schools, much to the relief of some fall sports coaches in the area.

'This league is for high school players who are not involved in a fall sport at their respective high schools,' Randall said.

'When we started this league we didn't want to infringe on the coaches of fall sports.'

The league began in 1985 with four teams and about 60 kids, Randall recalls.

'Now we've maxed-out,' he said.

'Last year, we had nine teams, but that was too many.

We backed off to eight and will keep it manageable at that number.'

Baseball players from Waubonsie Valley, Geneva, Batavia, St. Charles, Naperville Central, Naperville North, Wheaton-St. Francis, West Aurora, Marmion Academy, Illinois Mathematics and Science Academy, Kaneland, Sycamore, Hinckley-Big Rock, Sandwich, Yorkville, Plano, the Glenbards (North, South and East) and Wheaton North are involved in the program.

And Randall said other high schools have been represented by players in the past.

Players are placed on teams on a regional basis, unless enough players from one school can form a team on its own -- like St. Charles and Waubonsie Valley.

The top two teams in the league standings play a one-game championship Oct. 21.

For Randall, the arrangement has been good for his successful baseball program at WCC.

'Brett Duck (Batavia) played in this fall league three years, so I saw plenty of him,' Randall said.

'He did some mechanical things wrong and needed to learn some things, but he showed a lot of ability.
