Drivers heading through St. Clair County should plan for delays this week as road crews roll out multiple projects. Officials say several roads in Casco, Emmett, and Riley townships will see full, one-day closures for culvert work, while others like County Line and Gratiot roads will have intermittent lane restrictions. Additional slowdowns are expected from ditching, bridge washing, and ongoing bridge replacement on Frith Road. All work depends on weather, so drivers are urged to allow extra time and follow posted detours.

Cardinal Mooney senior Stella Behnan overcame a serious sacral fracture at the base of her spine last summer. The injury forced her to miss the entire cross country season and raised doubts about her future in track. With steady support from coach Matt Zammit, she pushed through three months of recovery and tough winter training. On May 6, Behnan broke the school record in the girls 1,600 meters, running 5 minutes 39.76 seconds. She heads to the Division 4 state finals on May 30th.
