Owen-Withee Holds Off Valley Christian 32-23 in WIAA 8-Player Sectional Final
NEENAH — Talon Mueller and Clay Mueller combined for more than 350 rushing yards as Owen-Withee defeated Valley Christian 32-23 in a WIAA 8-player football sectional final Saturday at Neenah Middle School. The Blackhawks improve to 10-2 and advance to the state semifinals. Valley Christian finishes 10-1. Talon Mueller, a senior, was Owen-Withee’s workhorse on the ground, carrying 22 times for 183 yards at 8.3 yards per carry. Sophomore Clay Mueller matched his older counterpart step for step, adding 177 rushing yards at 8.8 per carry. The two Muellers combined for 360 of the Blackhawks’ 355 team rushing yards — a testament to Owen-Withee’s ground-first identity in the 8-player game. Clay Mueller also hauled in a 26-yard reception and converted a two-point attempt.
