ALTON - Sophomore Kiyoko Proctor is starting right where she left off. After a successful 21-7 campaign as a freshman, a season that saw her play in all but one game, she's back at it again. Having led her team in scoring last season with 409 points (15.1 PPG average), she's already making a difference this year. Through the first two games of the 2022-23 season, she's scored 25 points, helping her team to back-to-back wins over Springfield Southeast (73-32) and Mater Dei (49-36).

WASHINGTON – U.S. Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D-IL), a member of the Senate Electrification Caucus, introduced the Responsive Energy Demand Unlocks Clean Energy (REDUCE) Act to eliminate states’ ability to “opt out” of aggregated demand response.

On top of that, it puts money back in the pockets of Americans who are doing their part to reduce their energy usage,” said Durbin. “When it comes to taking climate action, we’re all in this together.
