Skip to main content WINNER AND A MOVIE: Birds run table in SCC, produce video tribute to coach (w/ 28 photos) Greg Shashack, gshashack@thetelegraph.com FacebookTwitterEmail PIASA – The Southwestern Piasa Birds girls basketball team had a nice viewing party planned for the school’s cafeteria Saturday night. Movie night’s pre-party went according to plan – perhaps even better than planned – with the Birds’ 45-22 victory over the Hillsboro Hiltoppers to clinch the South Central Conference championship. Southwestern, which had not won the SCC since completing the third of three successive 9-0 seasons in the league in 2016, handed the Toppers their first conference defeat. Hillsboro is 12-3 and 7-1 in the SCC. The Birds improved to 11-1 and close 9-0 in the SCC.

'I was totally shocked': Special guests fly in to honor Southwestern's Wooley

'I was totally shocked': Special guests fly in to honor Southwestern's Wooley Greg Shashack, gshashack@thetelegraph.com FacebookTwitterEmail 3of5 5of5 PIASA – Steve Wooley was surprised when Southwestern principal Mark Bearley took the microphone to address the crowd for a pregame presentation Friday night. But the featured surprise for Wooley came when the presenters of the plaque walked into the gym. The longtime Piasa Birds athletics director and girls basketball coach was already wearing his game face for a key South Central Conference game with Pana. He should have been wearing his glasses. “When they were coming through the door, I didn’t have my glasses on,” Wooley said. “I was kind of like, who in the hell is this? They said it was going to be a big surprise. And it was a huge shock. I still can’t believe they are here. This is great.”
