Happy Whatever You Celebrate

I think that is going to be my new greeting for this time of the year. Enough of that talk. For the love of whatever person or thing you look to for guidance. Let's talk sports.

Girls Basketball - In probably one of the most complete games I have seen out of the RHS Girls this season, they took it to CVille 55-33. Big game Erin Lind and Taylor Wurtz. Wurtz as many of you know is being looked at by a couple of schools including Green Bay, Minnesota, and Michigan. Well Kevin Borseth Michigan coach showed up to watch the Ripon Girls manhandle Cville. Taylor "no pressure" Wurtz delivered one steal shy of a 3-dub (Triple Double - Points/Rebounds/Steals 10 or more per category) More importantly she played what I thought the most team basketball of the season. We all know she can shoot but it was nice to see her dish and look the floor. Also Erin Lind has anchored this team so far this season she is averaging a Dub Dub with points and rebounds, but more importantly has not gotten into foul trouble which plagued her a bit the last few years. Our thoughts go out to Kaycee Kolberg who went down with a nasty knee injury in Omro last Tuesday. Poor girl I feel horrible for her.

Boys Hoops - Well the win over Waupaca was nice but the lost to Xavier not so nice. I have yet to see a team as quick and physical as Xavier. Crisp passes, quick cuts, open shots. TEXTBOOK! Sean Dugenske is getting hot again in the point department, and the solid play from Mitch and Casey is great to see. Let's hope for good things.

Wrestling - Some day our schedules will align and head coach Mark Bradley will join me at halftime to talk wrestling. His grapplers are doing awesome with a solid core of some upper classmen walking the new guys through the life of high school wrestling.
