BETHALTO - In their last race together, senior Jackson Collman alongside junior teammates and best friends DJ Dutton, Justice Eldridge, and Lucas Naugle finished third place in the 4x800 meter race at the IHSA state track meet in Class 2A. For the surreal accomplishment, all four are Tom Lane State Farm Athletes of the Month for Civic Memorial High School. The meet last weekend held annually at Eastern Illinois University's blue track, saw the four Eagles run a time of 7:57.54 in the 4x800m, the first time the group has ever run under eight minutes. This achievement just goes to show how far these four have come. In the 2021 outdoor season, when Collman was a sophomore and Eldridge, Naugle, and Dutton were freshmen, the group ran a time of 8:45.42. Collman also qualified for the state meet in the two-mile, taking 14th with a time of 9:45.52. While Collman graduates and continues his running career into college at the University of Southern Indiana, the other three will return

TROY - Junior Tashon Crockarell has been in the Triad High School track and field system but had a breakout season in 2022-23. He was able to qualify for the state track meet at Eastern Illinois University in three separate events. For his efforts, Tashon Crockarell is an Axes Physical Therapy Athlete of the Month for Triad High School. First, he took 10th at state in Class 2A in the high jump with a mark of 6' 0.75". His outdoor PR was 6' 2.75" which he recorded back on April 14th in the Mascoutah Military Classic. Crockarell was also a key part of both the 4x100 and 4x200 meter relays, running the second leg of each race. Both of those relays qualified for state. Alongside Tristan Darby, Cory Warren, and Louis Yohannes, the group finished fourth in the 4x100m (42.28) and second in the 4x200m (1:28.09). After this season's success, Crockarell is poised to have another stellar year as a senior.

Summer is generally a time when people loosen up a little and look for fun, and Cherokee Street Theater Company gleefully leans into that mood with a campy, laugh-packed take on The Clash of the Titans. Most specifically, the parody-driven company turns its focus on an interpretation of the 1980s movie version of the story, complete with its own ‘mechanical’ owl.
