Orr not for Barrington, Schaumburg

Posted by coachbu on Tue, 11/25/2008 - 15:00

One of the dangers of scheduling Chicago Public League teams - particularly for boys basketball tournaments - is they often seem to lose their way once they get outside the Chicago city limits and arrive late.
But better late than never - the latter the case with Orr as it pulled out of the Rockford Boylan boys tourney. That pushed Barrington's season opener from Tuesday to Friday and could cost Schaumburg one of its two scheduled Saturday games.
Tourney officials are trying to find a replacement team or schedule an additional Friday game for Barrington.

He first started covering the high schools as a sophomore at York High School in Elmhurst in 1982 and received an excellent prep education - especially in boys basketball - for two years in Peoria in the late 1980s while attending Bradley University.

Marty has covered and enjoyed talking with coaches and athletes in just about every sport sponsored by the IHSA. He also is a die-hard White Sox fan who was fortunate enough to attend Game 2 of the World Series he never thought he would see in his lifetime.
