From a pool of more than 724 nominated seniors across 379 Wisconsin high schools, just 32 have earned the distinction of the WIAA’s Scholar Athlete Finalist for 2026.

Sixteen senior girls and 16 senior boys — including two from Bonduel, one from Wittenberg-Birnamwood and one from Gillett — have been selected to receive the award, presented by We Energies Foundation and Wisconsin Public Service Foundation.

Both the boys and girls basketball teams at Shawano Community High School will have new coaches next season.

Kayla Brendemuehl, activities and athletics director, sent letters to players and families in April announcing the changes.

Girls coach Ryan Koenig announced that he is resigning after 14 seasons.
