PIASA - Reagan Beilsmith finished a successful girls' track season this past spring and is now ready for fall cross country challenges, her Piasa Birds’ girls cross country coach Gary Bowker says. Now a junior, Reagan will once again be one of Southwestern’s top female runners in cross country. Reagan is a reigning 3,200-meter Macoupin Conference champion and Bowker expects big things from her in cross country. Reagan is an Altonized Community Federal Credit Union Female Athlete of the Month for the Piasa Birds. “I think her success in track and field will carry over into cross country,” the coach said. “Reagan is a steady competitor.” Coach Bowker said Reagan's best attribute is that she “always gives her everything when she is racing and training.” Reagan recorded a time of 3:15.56 in the 800 meters in the 2023 IHSA Class 1A Track Sectional at Carlinville in May. She won the Macoupin County Meet with a time of 15:35.77 in the 3,200

I’ve talked before about the utter stupidity (and danger) of trying to turn the internet into Disneyland: a safe space for little kids, where they’ll never encounter any content that makes them upset, but plenty of states (and many people in Congress) are trying to do it anyway. Wisconsin is the latest, and its Senate […]

SPRINGFIELD - In honor of National Minority Donor Awareness Month, Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias joined community groups, leaders, donor families and recipients to highlight the need for minorities and people of color to join the state's organ donation registry. “My hope is that communities across Illinois of all backgrounds, races and ethnicities can be informed and have a positive outlook on organ donation and its life-saving impacts,” Giannoulias said. “There is an especially great need for organ donation within communities of color, and the more people learn about it, the more likely they are to be donors.” During this month, Giannoulias is working to create a positive culture around organ donation in multicultural communities through outreach and education.
