Algoma will be leaving Lacrosse this weekend with a thrower on the podium as Bobbi Blahnik came away with second place in the Division 3 girls shot put on Thursday. Blahnik out-threw her rank, coming in the third seed. She got the second place mark with a throw of 39-8.00. Blahnik was just under four feet shy of the championship mark. 

Blahnik also competed in the discus on Thursday, and placed sixth. She came into that event ranked third as well. With the double-event performance at the state meet including being near the top in shot put, Blahnik’s season comes to an end.

The Blahnik family name is already well known before Bobbi ever picks up a discus or a shotput at the Division 3 State Track Meet on Thursday.

Blahnik is ranked third in both the shot put (38-06.00) and the discus (115-05). She'll be pushed not just by the best throwers in the state during second flight, but also by history. Her big sister Kennedy holds the state record in both events (49-01.50 shot put, 161-00.50 discus)  and her dad Dean has been coaching track for decades.

The field events begin at 11 a.m. Thursday.

The Algoma Wolves took to extra innings to decide a winner in their WIAA playoff game on Wednesday. However, the Wolves fell to Lola-Scandinavia by a final score of 4-3. With the loss, Algoma’s season is now complete. Their season ended with a 10-11 overall record. 

Shot put and discus rings at sectionals have been a home away from home for Algoma track and field athletes in recent years.

Thursday's sectional in Rosholt will be no exception thanks to Bobbi Blahnik. She bested the discus field by 10 feet (108 ft) and the shot put field by more than two feet (40 ft 11 inches) to win a pair of regional titles in Hilbert on Tuesday. 

She will be the lone member of the Wolves competing on Thursday when the first events in Rosholt begin at 3:30 p.m.

The Algoma Wolves softball team looks to keep their season alive at home when they host Crandon in the WIAA Regional opener.

The Wolves come into the matchup 9-10 overall on the season, ending the regular season campaign going 4-1 in their last five matchups. Hannah Wiese led the way offensively this season for the Wolves, compiling a .429 battering average and driving in 16 runs. The Cardinals have won three of its last eight games, including an 8-6 victory over Manawa in its season finale.

The two teams meet in Algoma at 4:30 p.m. 

The Algoma baseball regular season ended with a non-conference home loss to Hilbert/Stockbridge on Monday. Algoma put up seven runs, which was a season-high, but could not slow down Hilbert/Stockbridge’s hitting attack. The final score was 17-7. Algoma went the regular season without being able to get in the win column but has a chance to change that on Thursday. The Wolves play Kewaunee in the WIAA Playoffs on Thursday at 5:00 PM. The teams played on May 8th, and Kewaunee won 14-0. 

Bobbi Blahnik won the shot put and discus titles on Monday's Packerland Conference meet to lead the Algoma Wolves in Peshtigo.

Her throws of 41-01 in the shot put and 109-03 in the discus were both season records.

Algoma fell just short of their first win of the season on Tuesday. They took a 3-0 loss at Green Bay NEW Lutheran.

Algoma gets another shot for their first win on Thursday and Friday when they have a homestand against Oconto and then Sevastopol. 

On Tuesday, Algoma baseball will have a chance to avenge a three run loss from two weeks ago. Algoma, still in the hunt for their first win, face Green Bay NEW Lutheran on Tuesday.

Algoma has an overall record of 6-9, most recently getting downed 10-0 at Kewaunee. NEW Lutheran continues to play for their first win of the season. The Blazers will host the game on Tuesday with first pitch scheduled for 5:00 PM. 

The Algoma  Wolves baseball could not get a hold of the North Fond du Lac Orioles's offense in a pair of losses on Saturday.

In game one, Algoma fell behind 5-0 early on its way to a 9-1 loss. Noah Lukes drove in the lone run for the Wolves. Grant Vandervest and Carson Lischka each had a hit.

In game  2, the Wolves jumped out to a three run lead only to see an 11 run inning by the Orioles put the game well out of reach in a 15-3 loss. Javen Charles gave up four runs in his three innings of work to lead the Wolves pitching staff.

Algoma will attempt to revive their game at the plate when they face Oconto on Thursday. Algoma is coming off a loss to the Packerland’s top team, Kewaunee, in which they lost 10-0. In contrast, Oconto beat Sevastopol 13-3 in their last game on Monday. Oconto and Algoma met up on May 11th and Oconto downed the Wolves, 8-5.

The Algoma softball team will try to take down the conference champion Kewaunee Storm in a Monday evening matchup.

The Wolves were able to hang on against Sevastopol in their 4-3 win on Saturday while the Storm clinched their Packerland crown with its own close win against Peshtigo last Friday 10-9. 

First pitch is slated for 5 p.m.

No one hit the track but Algoma made their presence known in the field events at Tuesday's Packerland Conference Track Relays meet.

In a battle of teams looking for their first victory of 2021, Algoma would score too little too late against Green Bay NEW Lutheran. Algoma would muster just two hits in the game, and score three runs in the bottom of the fifth inning. 

NEW Lutheran scored the games first run in the top of the third inning and would pack in four more in the top of the fifth. For extra comfort they would score another in seventh, securing a 6-3 win. The Blazers would get their first win of the season and Algoma’s next chance will be next Friday against Sevastopol. 

Algoma will look to gain traction in the Packerland conference on Thursday after a 2-4 start in the Packerland Conference and 5-7 overall.
