Battery tested: Dolphins face one of the state's best in Battery Creek ...
Hilton Head rebounded to down Berkeley High School 60-16. For Battery Creek, the match against Dutch Fork got off to a good start. John Perry rallied to win the 103-pound match, scoring a reversal and back points in the final 30 seconds of the match. Bobby Whitman (125 pounds), Tieler Schabbing (145), David Miller (160) and Tyler Ellis (189) all got wins for the Dolphins, but it wasn't enough to defeat a Silver Foxes squad that beat top-ranked Summerville earlier this week. "That was fun," Cox said. "It was a hard-fought match from beginning to end. Out of 14 weights, there were half of them that could have gone the other way. It was a good dual meet." Creek trailed by a point 23-22 to West-Oak at one point, but shut out the Warriors the rest of the match.
Rock lodgesters
Jones' company works with bands including Arms & Sleepers, Black Diamond Heavies, The Eames Era and Radio Moscow. Jones said some of the Chicago hotels at which artists have stayed include the W Hotels, Hotel Sax (formerly the House of Blues Hotel) in River North and the Crowne Plaza Metro in the West Loop. Though they are from the Chicago area, Fall Out Boy crashes at the Drake Hotel in the Gold Coast and the Hard Rock Hotel in the Loop when the band is in town, band frontman Pete Wentz told RedEye in a statement through his spokesman. "The Hard Rock gives us whatever we ask for pretty much, but I have a feeling it has less to do with what band we're in and more with our penchant for demolition," Wentz said. "Besides, we always clam up and forget what to ask for and end up drinking tap water and eating the sponges in the bathroom." Kanye West and Common are regular guests of the W Hotel on North Lake Shore Drive, said W Hotels spokeswoman Daphne Ortiz.
