Streaking Edgar football faces tough Level 3 test against unbeaten Lomira

EDGAR – Edgar knows what it takes to make a deep playoff run. But advancing to Level 4 will require the Wildcats to overcome a physical Lomira team at home on Friday, Nov. 6. Week in and week out, the Wildcats coaching staff adjusts their game plan to fit the opponent they’ll face, but other than that not much changes in the way the Wildcats approach a contest. Last week in Level 2, Edgar knew they would need an extra boost in offense and responded with one of its most explosive offensive performances in long-tenured Edgar coach Jerry Sinz’s career. The Wildcats opened their Level 2 contest against Pardeeville, ripping off 50 points. SPASH XC dynasty snags 5th straight: SPASH dynasty snags historic 5th straight title | WIAA XC championships Sinz acknowledges that Lomira is considerably bigger than his group of Wildcats at the line of scrimmage, and it's one of the elements of the game the Wildcats intend to address in a plethora of manners. “We have bigger guys, and some of them are younger guys, freshmen and stuff. We may play a few of those guys a play or two on the defensive line just to rest the

Unbeaten Amherst embracing home field advantage for Level 3 playoff showdown

STEVENS POINT – Whether it's the first week of the season or a Level 3 playoff matchup, Amherst football isn't changing its approach. With the Falcons first opportunity to clinch into the state-qualifying game since 2019 when they battled Stratford at Stiehm Stadium. “I think the biggest thing is we've never — I've never in my 17 years — prepared for any opponent differently,” Amherst coach Mark Lusic said. “I don't care if it's the number one team in the state or if it's Little Sisters of the Poor. We prepare week in and week out the same way. “The kids understand that that's the same message every week, so I think it helps us tremendously. The kids know who they're playing. You don't need to say anything. It's playoff time. It's Level 3. They know the situation, but we're still going to prepare and talk the same way we always talk.” Dons joy pushes team back to state: Columbus Catholic volleyball's joy leads program to second state run Lusic is not shying away from their excitement to compete in front of their home crowd this time around.

Tom Dombeck predicts all 3 Manitowoc-Sheboygan WIAA football Level 3 games

Just three high school football teams from Manitowoc and Sheboygan counties remain alive entering Level 3 of the WIAA playoffs . As I did for Levels 1 and 2, I’ll predict all three games involving area teams. I went 4-0 in my predictions last week and am 10-1 in the postseason. The games will be broken down by division in descending order, beginning with Division 3. Division 3 No. 3 Plymouth Panthers (9-2) at No. 1 Port Washington Pirates (11-0) The No. 10-ranked Panthers and top-ranked Pirates have already met this season. On Oct. 9, Port Washington prevailed 42-34 as Pirates junior quarterback Jack Bunyan had a monster game. Bunyan went 24-for-44 with 348 yards and five touchdowns, although he did throw a pick-6 in the first quarter. If the Panthers hope to advance to Level 4, they’ll need to contain Bunyan better than last month. As for Plymouth, senior Cole Kuhn will need to once again have a stellar game. He had more than 170 yards total offense in the first meeting, with 105 yards rushing, 72 yards receiving and a touchdown. He also threw a 3-yard touchdown. The Panthers have reached Level 3 four times previously since 2012,

After school referendum fails, Pulaski says it's looking to the future

The Pulaski School District residents voted down a nearly $60 million capital referendum on Nov. 3, upsetting the district's plans for additions and renovations that included two new pools. Now, the district says, it'll use that community decision to guide its plans moving forward. "This decision by the PCSD community gives the district greater direction in its always-ongoing facilities planning process," district communications director Eric Schreiber said in a statement. "Creating and maintaining functional facilities that meet the needs of our students and community remains a top priority. At the proper time, projects may be reevaluated or reconfigured to better fall in line with our community’s priorities and serve our students." The statement thanked those who voted and took time to consider the referendum. At this point, the district has not responded to follow-up questions about whether it will pursue a referendum in April or whether it plans to close the pool. Why did Pulaski's referendum fail? The referendum vote came after the village of Pulaski completed a $15 million water infrastructure project that more than doubled an average resident's water bill, from $151 to nealry $352 per quarter. Several residents who opposed the water bill increase linked the higher
