Sugar River Euchre

Our first skunk of the season happened at S’wisco Taphaus when Loretta Herfel and Randy Skogen shuffled a block of cheese full of holes to Cheese-Eaters Keith Wenger and Giff Hoesly in the seventh frame to propel 5th Quarter into a 20-point lead over S’wisco Taphaus. The Cheese-Eaters gnawed fast and furious in the eighth frame, but found themselves 5 points short in the end. Even with the skunk, Keith and Giff were able to finish stronger than Steve Sponem and Don Williams (Kleeman’s), who finished the night with a 69, for this week’s low score.

That Was Then, This is Now

We've thought about this race for a month. It's 9:59 on Saturday morning. It might rain, it might hold off, we don't care. In five seconds the gun fires and planning turns into action.
We face three difficult teams in Capitol Conference South: Deerfield/Cambridge, defending Conference Champions; Wisconsin Heights/Barneveld, State qualifier in 2016; and Marshall. Marshall beat us in every outing this season. We focus on Marshall. We wish redemption.
