The Daily Herald, April 8, 2022
The battle for the championship of the 13-team Bob Bohl Invitational couldn't have been any closer Friday night as the final result came down to the last boys gymnast in the last rotation between Glenbrook North and Hoffman Estates. And it was the Spartans who prevailed by a narrow 140.8 to 140.75 margin over the Hawks for the team title as Glenbrook North had just enough points to take home the first-place trophy. Led by all-around champion Ben Valek (55.2 points, 9.20 average), Buffalo Grove placed third with 133 points, followed by Glenbard East (130.2) in fourth, Libertyville (129.8) in fifth, and Glenbrook South (125.4) in sixth.
