Luke Peterson ends Green Bay Southwest drought at WIAA state cross-country
WISCONSIN RAPIDS – Luke Peterson didn’t run the best cross-country race of his career, and the Green Bay Southwest senior certainly wasn’t close to shocking the world and winning the WIAA Division 1 state championship on Oct. 31 at Ridges Golf Course. It didn’t matter that he finished 133rd with a time of 17 minutes, 29.5 seconds, or that he took an elbow near his left rib that made breathing a bigger chore than the challenging course for the last half of the race. No, that Peterson was competing at all was the story. It hasn’t happened much at Southwest in recent years. When he qualified for the big stage at sectionals, he became the first Trojans runner to make state cross-country since Alec Basten and Adam Meyer in 2015. That was the year Basten finished runner-up in D1 in his only season as a runner. It has been a long time coming for this moment. Peterson not only earned an opportunity to compete at state in his final chance, but he got quite the send-off from his classmates after they lined up in the hallway at school to cheer for him at the end of the school day on

Serial killer expert has a 'Chilling Evening' in store for Green Bay
Spend the night before Halloween with Dr. Katherine Ramsland and you’re likely to leave the Ashwaubenon Performing Arts Center feeling both enlightened and a little freaked out. As a forensic psychologist who has studied and corresponded with serial killers for three decades, she’s an expert on the kind of scary that only true crime can deliver. Her “Cracking the Serial Killer Code: A Chilling Evening with Dr. Katherine Ramsland” at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 30 offers a look into the minds of such notorious figures as Dennis Radar, better known as “BTK,” and Elmer Wayne Henley Jr., the teen accomplice to the “Candy Man" (Dean Arnold Corll). When Ramsland goes on the road with her live talks, it’s also a chance to bring up killers that might be relevant to audiences in whatever market she’s in. So in Wisconsin, Jeffrey Dahmer or Ed Gein may pop up, and because her appearance is so close to Halloween, she says “serial killer ghosts” could also get some time. “I don’t want to downplay the fact that this is all very disturbing. I want people to be disturbed so that they take measures to keep themselves protected, but at the same time I don’t
