The Kewaunee High School boys basketball team has had two nonconference losses this season by a combined six points. Friday night, it was the Storm picking up a win in a close contest outside of the Packerland when they defeated Denmark 63-59. 
The Vikings have played some familiar opponents this year including Marinette and Southern Door, winning both of those games. The result would suggest the January 21st showdown in Brussels between the Storm and Eagles has a legitimate chance at deciding the conference’s regular season champion. 

Kewaunee’s next game is Friday, January 3rd against NEW Lutheran.

Three Kewaunee Storm wrestlers nearly led the way for the team to claim their own tournament's championship on Saturday.

For the second place Storm, Jack Severin (126), Logan Steinhorst (132), and Jason Reinke (195) each went 5-0 on the day to win their weight classes. The team also had four other wrestlers finish in the top three.

It was another easy victory for the Kewaunee High School basketball team as they downed NEW Lutheran, 53-29, on Thursday night. The Storm clamped down on defense again. The most they’ve allowed in their last four games is 36 points. Kewaunee has yet to give up 50 in a game and they have never scored less than that. It doesn’t get more convincing than that for an undefeated team. They open up 2020 on the third of January with a game against Seymour.

The Kewaunee High School boys basketball team lost another tantalizingly close nonconference game Thursday. Kiel bested the Storm, 61-59. The first game of the year saw Kewaunee lose by just four points to Two Rivers. It sets up a glass half full-half empty style test. Kewaunee is 3-2 on the year but undefeated in the Packerland Conference. They have outscored their opponents by 75 points this season but are only a game above .500. Kewaunee plays again next Friday against Denmark.

Kewaunee High School standout Tanor Bortolini officially signed a letter of intent Wednesday afternoon to commit to the University of Wisconsin beginning with the 2020 season. The Bortolini family helped set up a signing celebration inside the school’s little theatre which began at 3:30 PM. In attendance were fellow students and friends to show their support for Bortolini. 

Before Bortolini put pen to paper, members of the Kewaunee athletic department and football staff got a chance to talk about Bortolini’s opportunity in Madison, both athletically and academically. They stressed that this is just the start of Bortolini’s journey, not the end, and his work ethic and character will continue to be as important as his talent. Bortolini stands 6’6”, weighing in at around 290 pounds. He will be an offensive lineman with the Badgers.

The Kewaunee High School girls basketball team continued its dominance of other county schools on Tuesday. Earlier in the season, the Storm handled Algoma. Last night, they cruised past Luxemburg-Casco, 69-36. Mackenzie Tlachac led the Storm with 21 points, supported by Katie Metzler’s 15 and Claire Kohnle’s 11. For Luxemburg-Casco, Lauren Adams was the only player to score in double figures. She had 13.

Luxemburg-Casco’s next game is Thursday against Clintonville. Kewaunee hits the hardwood against NEW Lutheran.

The only points given up by the Kewaunee Storm wrestling were via the forfeit in its 65-12 win over Valders Tuesday night. Jason Reinke, Alex Romero, jack Severin, Mason Jeanquart, and Logan Steinhorst picked up falls in the win, which featured a combined six forfeits between the two teams. 

Kewaunee lineman Tanor Bortolini makes it official Wednesday when he signs his National Letter of Intent to play football for the Wisconsin Badgers. An All-Packerland Conference selection on both sides of the ball, Bortolini earned All-State recognition for his work on the offensive line for the Storm which advanced to the second round of the playoffs in 2019, Bortolini will be a full scholarship player for the Badgers will officially sign his NLI at a ceremony at Kewaunee High School on Wednesday beginning at 3:30 p.m.

Jack Severin's championship at 126 pounds led the way for the Kewaunee Wrestling team's showing at the Rebel Invitational in Wabeno Saturday.

The Kewaunee High School girls basketball team defeated rival Algoma 61-33 on the shores of Lake Michigan Friday night. Kewaunee put in a complete 36-minute effort. The Storm led by 14 points at half and would not have needed another basket to secure the victory. The tenacious Kewaunee defense yielded only eleven points after the break to the Wolves.

The leading scorers for Kewaunee were Mackenzie Tlachac, who tickled the twine for 26, and Katie Metzler with 12 points. Algoma had two players with nine points apiece, Hanna Wiese and Sydney Zimmerman. Kewaunee plays at Gibraltar on Thursday. Algoma also gets a six day break before taking the court at home against NEW Lutheran.

The Kewaunee Storm boys basketball team outscored the Sturgeon Bay Clippers by 12 in the first half and did not look back in its 56-45 win Thursday.

Ryan Carmichael led the Storm with 17 points. while Max Hanrahan chipped in with 11 points and Tanor Bortolini added another 10 points. The Clippers were able to get back in the game thanks to its ability to hit three-point shots, knocking down six in the game. Three of those came off the hands of Jake Schneider, who scored 18 points for the Clippers in the loss. 

The Clippers look to rebound on Tuesday against NEW Lutheran while the Storm will travel to Algoma.

The Kewaunee Storm once again find themselves as the only Packerland Conference team playing for keeps on Monday.

The Storm will play Menasha at home Monday night after defeating Denmark in their season opener 60-46.

Alexa Yost leads the Blue Jays in points (12), rebounds (7), and assists (2) on the young season.

The Kewaunee High School girls basketball team lived up to the Storm moniker Tuesday night, bolting past Sturgeon Bay 66-22. It was both the highest point total of the young season for Kewaunee and their best defensive effort. Working in the Storm's favor was the fact that Sturgeon Bay also had a game Monday against Menominee from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. 

Kewaunee improves to 3-0 heading into Friday's rivalry game against Algoma. Sturgeon Bay is 1-3 and travels to NEW Lutheran Friday.

The road to a third straight Packerland Conference championship and regional championship begins on the lakeshore Tuesday night as the Kewaunee Storm wrestling team hosts Green Bay United for a dual meet.

The Storm welcomes back Jack Severin, who took fourth in last season's WIAA Individual State Tournament and the Trackwrestling Preseason National Championships last month. It was a hard-fought battle between the Storm and United last year with Kewaunee prevailing.

Weigh-ins begin at 5:45 p.m. with varsity wrestling beginning at 7 p.m.
