Three minutes. That's all the time Andi Potkonjak spent on the hardwood last season before suffering the dreaded ACL injury that ended what should have been a breakout season for the then-sophomore at Antioch High. Despite losing a key piece of the hoops puzzle, the Sequoits still were respectable, finishing 14-14. And now, with Potkonjak almost fully recovered and back at point guard, this season's outlook couldn't be brighter.
Markell Brown and the Mount Carmel defense heard the talk all week that they needed to step up and deliver. With Stevenson facing a fourth-and-3 with just over a minute to go, a big rush by Brown forced an incompletion and gave the Caravan a 23-16 victory in the second round of the IHSA Class 8A playoffs Friday night at Gately Stadium.
Sweet labor prepares Greek Food Fest
Diples. Kourambethes. Melos. Baklava. All Greek sweets and all delicious, according to the church ladies baking for charity. About a dozen women gathered at St. Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church on Friday to start baking for Greek Food Fest, a two-day event that begins Nov. 19.

Think outside 'The Box'
I know, I know, "The Box" triumphantly qualifies for one of my favorite adjectives, "preposterous." But if you make a preposterous movie that isn't boring, I count that as some kind of a triumph. This one begins as traditional science fiction and branches out into radio signals from Mars, nosebleeds, Sartre's theories about free will, amputated toes, NASA, the National Security Agency, wind tunnels, murders, black Town Cars, obnoxious waiters, and a mysterious stranger.
