In a league that also includes perennial playoff teams Stratford, Amherst, Colby and Wittenberg-Birnamwood, the Weyauwega-Fremont football team was looking to make some noise in its Central Wisconsin-Large Conference opener.
The Warhawks made plenty of noise at the expense of Wittenberg-Birnamwood on Sept. 4 by scoring on four of its first five possessions in a 35-6 win over the Chargers in Weyauwega.
If the Packerland Conference is going to be like the opener, fans of the Bonduel and Oconto Falls football teams can count on a successful season.
Bonduel handed Kewaunee a 28-22 loss Sept. 4 in the conference opener for both teams, while the Panthers opened Packerland play with a 26-7 home win over Oconto in the Battle of Highway 22 game.
Badger Amateur Baseball Association Grand Championships and the Little Falls Loggers seem to go hand-in-hand in recent years.
The Loggers handed Gresham an 8-6 defeat Sept. 6 in the BABA’s 80th Grand Championship game at Veterans Memorial Ballpark in Gresham to win their third straight title.
Shawano’s Troy Springborn and Steve Kastning each ended up with 220 points in the dire late models division, but Springborn was crowned champion in the standings after the Sept. 5 races at the Shawano Speedway. Shawano’s Brett Swedberg was in third place with 218 points.
The saddest thing I can imagine is a kid without a pocketknife.
Next in line on my Sad List would be a young hunter in the woods without a decent hunting knife (or two or three).
Growing up in the non-PC world of the 1960s and 1970s, I carried a pocketknife everywhere, including school. What self-respecting Cub Scout or Webelo would be caught without his multiblade Scout knife?
