EUGENE - You never know when you're going to fall in love.
Illinois Valley's Jacob Hinds certainly wasn't expecting it when he started his senior football season last fall, but nine months later, he's the Class 2A state champion in the discus and has a new love for track and field.
Hinds was the Cougars' quarterback and admits to being obsessed with football.

At authorized but unmanaged homeless camps by City Hall on Friday, two men were arrested on methamphetamine possession charges and cited on charges of drug paraphernalia possession and scattering rubbish. A woman was cited for scattering rubbish and staying long than allowed. A man was arrested on a warrant, and another man was arrested on a probation violation detainer.
