Books and basketball are important to Jordan Rettig of Sugar Grove. So is Books and Basketball.

When it comes to the lowercase variety, the 2010 Rosary High School graduate figures she couldn’t do much better than Washington University in St. Louis. U.S. News & World Report ranks the school 14th on its list of best colleges and universities – ahead of some Ivy League schools – and the women’s basketball team is a perennial NCAA Division III national championship contender.

Rettig turned down scholarship offers from some Division I schools to attend Washington University.
