2 months 3 weeks ago
EDWARDSVILLE - There are many key contributors to Metro East Lutheran's football success in the 2025 season, but one of those is tight end Ian Skelton. Skelton has helped open up many holes for the Knights' backs through the season with his blocking, MELHS Head Coach Mike Koch said. "Ian does a great job," the coach added. "We would like to get him the ball more, but he is a key to our running game. He starts it off and gets an edge for us and opens things up for our quarterback and running backs." Skelton is a BJ's Printables Male Athlete Of The Month for the Knights. Skelton said earlier in the season that he and the other Knights players are looking to do better than last season in the playoffs and go "way farther." Skelton mentioned a team goal the Knights set before the start of the preseason.

2 months 3 weeks ago
SPRINGFIELD - The Illinois Department of Transportation today announced the release of the new Illinois Official Highway Map. The map includes updates to listings and locations of colleges and universities, Amtrak service, tourist attractions, recreational areas – and more! It also commemorates next year’s 100th anniversary of Route 66, with updates that better represent the alignment of the historic road. “While your first choice for directions these days typically is a phone, paper maps continue to be popular with the public,” said Illinois Transportation Secretary Gia Biagi. “They also are invaluable. You never know when cell service will drop in an unfamiliar area. It’s good practice to keep a paper copy on hand for these situations as well as for travel planning.” The map’s cover features a picturesque sunset along U.S. 34 between Mendota and Princeton, near La Moille. The photograph was the winner of IDOT’s employee map cover
