COLLINSVILLE - Edwardsville boys track sophomore thrower Iose Epenesa is having another stellar season in both the shot put and discus throw events and did exceptionally well at the Collinsville Invitational meet, the final big meet before the postseason, on May 6 at Kahok Stadium. Epenesa finished third in the shot put with a throw of 15.74 meters (51 feet, seven-and-three-quarters inches) and came in second in the discus, getting off a toss of 53.21 meters (174 feet, seven inches) in helping the Tigers nip East St. Louis 93-92 to win the team championship at the meet.

Epenesa is an Edwardsville High School Boys Athlete of the Month for his track and field efforts this season. "I'm feeling pretty good," Epenesa said during an interview before the end of the meet.

One crash called in at 10:42 p.m. on Saturday resulted in a man being taken to the hospital after losing control of his vehicle. The motorist’s vehicle left the roadway and crossed the road over the front ramp of the Alton Fire Station on College Avenue, then ended up clipping a tree and crushed an air conditioner against a house in the 3200 block of College. “The person hit two or three trees in the process of the crash before he hit the air conditioner at the house,” Alton Battalion Chief Tom House said in a Saturday report. Another two-car accident left moderate to heavy damage to two vehicles. “We had two to three different wrecks in Alton yesterday in different places,” House said. “It was a busy day Saturday.”
