Bay Conference Championships

Shawano’s boys placed second with 47 points at Shorewood Cross Country Course.

Finishing in the top 10 were Josiah Kuehl, fifth, 17:47.2; Teagan Harkey, sixth, 17:49; and Aloysius Frechette, ninth, 17:59.

Also scoring for the Hawks were Quinten Harley, 13th, 18:04.7, and Beckett Hendricks, 19th, 18:34.

As good as the Pulaski High School football team’s offense looked in its final game of the regular season, its defense and special teams were just as impressive.

The Red Raiders wrapped up the regular season and tuned up for the WIAA playoffs Oct. 16 with a 49-0 Fox River Classic Conference-North win over Appleton West.

Apparently, a 2-7 overall record and a 1-6 mark in conference play is good enough to qualify for the WIAA state football playoffs.

That’s the case with Wittenberg-Birnamwood, a team that wrapped up its regular season Oct. 16 with a 49-15 Central Wisconsin Conference-Large loss to Amherst.

Thirty-five years.

That’s how long it’s been since the Marion volleyball team has shared or won a Central Wisconsin Conference championship.

Although the Mustangs had already wrapped up the CWC-North title, they put an exclamation point on an undefeated conference season Oct. 13 with a three-game sweep of Tigerton.

At the same time the Milwaukee Brewers were on their way to sweeping the Los Angeles Dodgers, the Shawano volleyball team was working on a sweep of its own.

The Hawks headed to New London for a Bay Conference match with the Bulldogs on Oct. 15 and returned home with a win that included 25-15, 25-13 and 25-23 victories.
