For the third week in a row, Richards and Oak Lawn hooked up in a boys bowling dual. No, they didn't walk across the street to carry on their neighborhood rivalry.

Spartans coach Chris Repa to lead Cross Countries unit on 166-mile marathon in an effort to raise funds for a service trip to Bolivia in 2012.
They’re going to run 166 miles in a 24-hour period. But when they reach their destination, after pounding the pavement from Clinton, Iowa, back to Oak Lawn Community High School, the finish line still will be a long, long ways off in the distance. For the 11 Oak Lawn “Cross Countries” team members participating in the “Running Down a Dream” event June 3-4, the end to the means is the primary purpose of their upcoming marathon effort, according to Oak Lawn cross country coach Chris Repa. He is of the belief the boys want to leave the world a better place than they found it. And they’re determined to run as many miles as it takes to do their part. “The title of the event says it all … ‘Running Down a Dream,’ ” Repa said. “These young men …

Richards 14, Oak Lawn 2 (5 innings). A seven-run first-inning uprising was all Bulldog starting pitcher Jon Danielson needed Friday afternoon.
Touching all the Bases: In a crosstown battle, one inning is all Richards would need to impose its will on Oak Lawn as the Bulldogs rolled to a 14-2 five-inning baseball victory on Friday. The game was played at Richards but had Oak Lawn as the designated home team. In the top of the first, Oak Lawn starting pitcher Bob Kametas seemed to have the game under control as he retired two of the first three hitters. Richards’ bats, however, got hot. The Bulldogs scored seven straight runs with two outs to jump out to the early lead. Second baseman Jake Beiriger highlighted the inning with a two-run single that gave the Bulldogs a 5-0 lead. In the top of the second, Bulldog shortstop Joe Lyons hit a home run to left field to give Richards an 8-0 …
