Maine West pulls off a stunning 41-40 win over Taft in the regional semifinals. Jaclyn Riedl makes 1-of-2 free throws to cut the deficit to 40-39 with 2.5 seconds left. Misses 2nd FT & Taft rebounds, but travels with 0.6 left. Becker inbounds to Riedl, who scores at buzzer to win

The volleyball match between @Maine_West and @Maine_East was more than a game last night. It was Fight for Feyerer Night! @Maine_West coach Nora Feyerer was diagnosed with breast cancer last fall; after treatments, she is now cancer free! #207now #207lead #breastcancerawareness

Huge congrats to @dmihalopoulos, a @Maine_West alum, for winning the Edward R. Murrow award for regional hard news reporting. His investigation into abuse faced by Chicago parks lifeguards shows his commitment to giving a voice to the voiceless. Proud of a @mwwesterner legend!
I’m a bit of a fish out of water outside the Midwest - and a small fish in the big NYC pond. But here we are, repping @WBEZ and Chicago

A Westerner triple-play of sports editor (@amcg234 ) and two columnists (@DeRushaJ and @EricPalm27). Keeping Spec Gym professional with the ties.
My radio roots go back to high school - we had an FM station, that's where I spent most of my time. Here's me and my best friend from school @EricPalm27 interviewing one of our girls basketball stars Alicia Malin @mwwesterner
