In a historic night at Luxemburg-Casco, the Spartans made it extra special by winning in convincing fashion over Marinette. It was the first time L-C had played a home soccer game under the lights and they celebrated by winning 6-0. Brynn Holzwarth scored a hat trick and one assist.  Alexa Geniesse, Lauren Duey and Heather Iverson also scored goals for the Spartans. Natalie Haen picked up another shutout by making three saves.

The Spartans will host Little Chute on Monday with the kickoff at 4:30 PM.

Thursday night's soccer game scheduled between Luxemburg-Casco at Freedom has been postponed to May 24th due to the rain. The Spartans are scheduled to take on Marinette on their home field on Friday night, kickoff at 6:30 PM. L-C is off to a 4-4-2 start  Their record was pretty similar to start off 2016, the year of Luxemburg-Casco's only girls soccer regional championship. In the regional title, the Spartans knocked off Fox Valley Lutheran 4-0. Liz Benson scored two goals to lead the offense while Mikayla Smka had four saves in goal to hold FVL scoreless. Mikayla Smka was the answer in Thursday's trivia question.

Congratulations to Jody Glish who answered the question correctly! Jody will win a $25 certificate to The Rendezvous.

It was a great night to be a Spartan at its own meet Thursday as the boys' track team won and the girls' took second in the Luxemburg-Casco Invitational.

Griffin Geib continued his strong season for the boys' team, winning the 100 and 200 meter dash events and third in the 400 meter run. Marshall Paider and the 4 x 400 meter relay team added two additional event titles for the Spartans.

On the girls' side, there were no individual event wins but consistent showings in the top two to three helped make the final team score close, losing to Two Rivers by .34 points.

Thursday's trivia question is, "Liz Benson was the offensive star for Luxemburg-Casco soccer in the 2016 regional championship game against Fox Valley Lutheran with 2 goals. Who was the goalkeeper that kept FVL off the board in a 4-0 Spartan victory to claim their only regional title?"

You can find this question in the DoorCountyDailyNews.com E-paper. If you answer correctly through the E-paper, you have an opportunity to win a $25 certificate to The Rendezvous.

The answer will be posted at 7 AM on Friday.

Luxemburg-Casco hosted Freedom in conference play under the lights last night at the Luxemburg-Casco Sports Complex. The Spartans looked on as Senior Captain and Ace Ian Doell continued his dominant senior campaign allowing 0 earned runs over his 5 innings of work. Over that span of time Doell retired 8 Freedom hitters via the strikeout while Freedom only scattered 3 hits over 5 frames. This pushes Doell to a 0.55 ERA over 25 innings of work this year. Freshman Owen Deprez came in as relief for the Spartans and allowed 1 unearned run and 1 earned run as Freedom took the lead in the top of the 6th 2-1. Deprez closed out the seventh frame with a 1,2,3 inning to get the bats to the home team for one final chance. Luxemburg-Casco couldn't muster anything in the bottom of the seventh as they also went down 1,2,3. The Spartans had very little to show offensively with only two hits and one run. Those lone hits came off the bats of Senior Captain OF Noah Lindsley and Junior 1B Dylan Dahlke. Dahlke was also responsible for the only RBI in the Spartans offense as he knocked in Senior Captain Lance Tebon home on a fielder's choice in the bottom of the first.

Luxemburg-Casco will travel to Freedom for Game 2 of the series on Thursday, April 25th with opening pitch slated for 4:30 PM.

Luxemburg-Casco battled with Little Chute and Waupaca in a conference track meet that they hosted on Tuesday. The girls finished in second behind Mustangs with 79 points. Despite getting fewer points than the girls, the boys finished tied with Little Chute for first place with 72.5 points.

Kate Hilbert took home first in the 300M Hurdles with a personal-best time (52.04a). Taylor Thiry won the Shot Put (35-04.00) with a personal-best distance and the Discus (85-04). Hannah Derenne won the High Jump ( 4-08.00).

Marshall Paider was the fastest in the 400M (53.78a). Luke Larson took home the 110M Hurdles (16.97a) and the High Jump (5-08.00) with a personal-best height. Jesse Gregorich won the Pole Vault (12-00.00) with a personal-best height and Parker Veeser had a personal-best distance in the Long Jump to win (20-03.00).

Luxemburg-Casco put up 5 runs in the fifth inning to clinch a victory over Wrightstown on Tuesday. The final score was 9-2 on the Spartans home field. Ali Routhieaux went 3-3 with a double and 3 RBI's. McKenzie Hanson contributed two hits as well.

Ally Dart struck out seven Tigers to get the victory in the circle.

L-C will travel to Marinette on Thursday, first pitch at 4:30 PM.

Heather Iverson scored the only goals of the game in Luxemburg-Casco's 2-0 win over Clintonville on Tuesday. The Spartans also got help in their road victory from Allison Prevost who tallied an assist. Natalie Haen picked up another shutout.

L-C is now back at the .500 mark at 4-4-2. They'll travel to Freedom on Thursday for a 4:30 PM kickoff.

The weather has postponed another game for Luxemburg-Casco softball. It was snow this time but all the rain has made the softball fields not safe to play at Luxemburg-Casco. The Spartans were scheduled to play Little Chute and it will be played at a later date. Luxemburg-Casco has been rolling so far this season with a 5-1 start.

That's a much better start than L-C had in 2009 when the Spartans were only 3-3 after their first six games but ended up winning the first softball state championship in the school's history. Luxemburg-Casco defeated Monroe 4-0 in the state title game to win it all.

Thursday's trivia question asked who L-C defeated in the 2009 softball state championship game and the answer was Monroe. Congratulations to Anita Kinnard for answering the question correctly! She will win a $25 certificate to The Rendezvous.

Thursday's question is, "In just his first season on the job, Don Schoen led Luxemburg-Casco softball to a state championship. Who did the Spartans beat in the title game?"

The answer will be posted at 7 AM on Friday.

Luxemburg-Casco hosted Fox Valley Lutheran and Denmark in a track and field meet on Tuesday. Both the boys and girls teams finished in second behind Fox Valley Lutheran. The boys scored 58 points and the girls got 67.5.

Griffin Geib was the star of the day for the Spartans winning the 100M, 200M and 400M runs. Marshall Paider won in the 800M. 

On the girls side, Morgan Tillmann finished first in the 400M. Brenna Cisler took home first in the 3200M. L-C won the 4x400 and 4x800 Relay Races. Taylor Thiry took first in the Shot Put. Cassie Flynn won the Triple Jump.

Heather Dart was 3-3 at the plate and Ali Routhieaux had two hits, including a home run and four RBIs. Lauren Adams added in two doubles.

Brynn Holzwarth and Heather Iverson scored all the goals for Luxemburg-Casco in their 3-1 over Waupaca at home. The Spartans earned the conference win behind five saves from Natalie Haen. Holzwarth scored 2 goals and Iverson picked up one.

Heather Dart's triple set up the Spartans' only won in the 6-1 loss to Seymour Monday. She was driven home on a McKenzie Hanson hit. The Thunder's Dinah King was a thorn in the side for the Spartans, knocking in four runs on two hits including a triple. Ally Dart took the hard loss, giving up three runs while scattering six hits.  The Spartans are back at it in Luxemburg Tuesday when they face Fox Valley Lutheran.

All of Door and Kewaunee County high school sports scheduled for Saturday was postponed or canceled except for Luxemburg-Casco soccer. The Spartans went to Ripon and picked up a 1-0 victory. Heather Iverson scored on a penalty kick to supply the only goal of the game. Natalie Haen notched another shutout.

The game was originally supposed to be played on Friday but was postponed by a day because of the poor field conditions at Ripon.

The Spartans next game will be their first one in the conference when they take on Waupaca at home on Tuesday at 4:30 PM. 

The softball game scheduled for Thursday between Luxemburg-Casco at Denmark has been postponed to April 22nd due to the snowstorm. The Spartans are off to a hot start this season with a 4-0 record. L-C has only allowed 2 runs so far all year. The hitting hasn't been bad either. The Spartans put up 12 runs in their last game against Freedom and 9 in the game before against Waupaca. 

If the early results are any indication, Luxemburg-Casco has the makings of a championship-caliber team like the Spartan teams from 2009 and 2010 that won state championships. Thursday's trivia question was about the 2010 state title game when the Spartans defeated Rice Lake 4-0. Who starred on the mound for the Spartans in the championship game going all seven innings and not allowing any runs. The correct answer was Kalli Schmelzer. Congratulations to Dave Klu who answered the question correctly. Dave is the winner of a $25 certificate to The Rendezvous in Luxemburg.

Thursday's trivia question is, "In the 2010 softball state championship game, Luxemburg-Casco's Mariah Mleziva was the hitting star of the game going 2-4 with a triple. Who was the pitching star of the game for the Spartans going all seven innings and allowing only 2 runs and striking out 5 in L-C's 5-2 win?"

The answer will be posted at 7 AM on Friday.

Luxemburg-Casco baseball was only scheduled to play one game on Tuesday against Clintonville but Thursday's game was moved up due to the forecasted snowstorm. The Spartans took two from the Truckers in a very long day for both teams. L-C won game 1 6-0 behind a dominating performance on the mound from Ian Doell who went the distance striking out 13. Anthony Otradovec had three of the 10 hits for the Spartans including two doubles.

Game 2 was the long one. Luxemburg-Casco prevailed by a final score of 18-12 in a game that lasted over three hours. The Spartans were trailing 12-11 going to the 7th inning but put up 7 in the final frame. Blake Yagodinski pitched a scoreless 7th to get the victory. 

Those two wins pushed L-C to 3-1 in the North Eastern Conference early on. The Spartans will wait a week to play again when they'll take on Fox Valley Lutheran at home with the first pitch coming at 4PM.

Both the Luxemburg-Casco track & field teams won their meets in Clintonville on Tuesday. The boys grabbed 86 points and the girls got 83.

Griffin Geib won the 100M and 200M races. Bryce Ronsman won in the 400M. 

John Larson picked up first in the 110M Hurdles.

The team of Derek Chervenka, Griffin Geib, Ethan Whitmire and Jesse Gregorich won the 4x100M Relay. Whitmire, Jake Guth, Parker Veeser and Isaac Vandenbush won the 4x200M. Gregorich, Larson, Ronsman and Luke Shefchik took first in the 4x400M Relay.

Colton Koss won the High Jump, Jesse Gregorich won in the Pole Vault, and Parker Veeser won the Long Jump and Triple Jump.

As for the girls Micaela Boucher won the 400M and Brenna Cisler took home the 3200M.

Kate Hilbert won the 300M Hurdles.

Taylor Thiry had the longest Shot Put throw.

Arabella Adams took home first in the High Jump and Cassie Flynn won the Triple Jump.

It was more of a home run derby instead of a softball game for Luxemburg-Casco on Tuesday. The Spartans hit four dingers including two from McKenzie Hanson. Those long balls helped L-C defeat Freedom 12-2. Kendal Prevost hit a three-run homer in the first inning. Ali Routhieax would also go yard. Ally Dart threw a great game on the mound allowing only two runs in five innings while striking out three. The Spartans will play another conference matchup on Thursday when they travel to Denmark for a 4:30 PM first pitch.

Spartans goalkeeper Natalie Haen had a busy and productive day in goal. She made 10 saves in Luxemburg-Casco's 4-0 loss in Ashwaubenon. It was a non-conference matchup so this won't hurt the Spartans too much in the standings. L-C will play their first North Eastern Conference game on Thursday when they host Marinette.

The Luxemburg-Casco Spartans softball hoped they were going to play two games, but settled for six innings in a 9-0 win over Waupaca. McKenzie Hanson, Ally Dart, Jenna Jorgensen, and Ali Routhieaux all collected two hits in the victory. In addition to driving two runs, it was Dart picking up the decision, allowing just three hits and a walk in four innings while striking out a pair. The first game was called short of seven innings due to lightning, which also canceled the second half of their doubleheader.

The Luxemburg-Casco softball team will practice what baseball great Ernie Banks preached Monday when they play two against Waupaca.

The Spartans have won their first two games of the season including a 5-0 win over conference rival Marinette. The offense has not needed to do much in the early outgoing with Spartans pitching staff going scoreless in 14 innings of work.

Monday's doubleheader begins at 4 p.m.

A day after both schools lost in the opening game of the Notre Dame Quad, Luxemburg-Casco and Sturgeon Bay tied each other at two on Saturday. Starr and Fischer Beckham scored the two goals for the Clippers.

On Friday, Sturgeon Bay lost to the host school 7-1, while L-C lost a tough hard-fought game to Lakeland 1-0.

The Spartans next match will be on Tuesday at Ashwaubenon at 6:30 PM. Sturgeon Bay will play at Freedom on Tuesday at 4:30 PM. 

Luxemburg-Casco got a little revenge on Marinette on Friday. The Marines defeated the Spartans on Tuesday but L-C took Friday's game 7-3. The Spartans were very patient at the dish taking nine walks. Noah Lindsley pitched five solid innings to pick up the win. L-C's next game is on Tuesday when they host Clintonville, first pitch at 4:30 PM.

The Luxemburg-Casco girls soccer team will take on Lakeland Union at Notre Dame High School Friday night. The Spartans next opponent will depend on the outcome of their own game and the game between Sturgeon Bay and Notre Dame. That game will happen on Saturday morning. L-C comes into their game Friday night with a record of 1-1-1. Their first win came in their last game against Green Bay NEW Lutheran by a final score of 3-0.

If the Spartans are able to keep improving throughout the year, they may be in line for some playoff success. The farthest L-C has ever gone was in 2016 won they won a regional championship.

Thursday's trivia question asked, "When was the only time the girls soccer team at Luxemburg-Casco won a regional championship?" The answer was 2016. Congratulations to Jenny Fameree for correctly answering the question! 

Five was a magic number in Luxemburg-Casco's 5-0 victory over Marinette Thursday in Northeastern Conference softball action. Pitcher Aly Dart pitched five innings of shutout ball while striking out five Marine batters in the process. The Spartans scored all five of their runs in the fifth inning, thanks to Dart and McKenzie Hanson both hit two-run singles in the decisive frame. 

Thursday's trivia question is, "In what year did the Luxemburg-Casco girls soccer team win their only regional championship?"

You can find this question in the DoorCountyDailyNews.com E-paper. If you answer correctly through the E-paper, you have an opportunity to win a prize.

The answer will be posted at 7 AM on Friday.

The Luxemburg-Casco baseball team fell to Marinette on Tuesday by a final score of 7-1. The Spartans were not able to follow up their opening day victory over Notre Dame with another win. L-C will try to get back over .500 when they take on Clintonville next Tuesday at home with the first pitch at 4:30 PM.

Ally Dart starred on the mound and at the plate for Luxemburg-Casco softball on Tuesday. The Spartans beat Valders 4-0 in Luxemburg behind a complete game shutout from Dart on opening day. Dart also drove in two with a double in the sixth inning. Mackie Junio added an RBI double of her own in the sixth that gave the Spartans a more comfortable lead.

L-C will host Marinette on Thursday with the first pitch at 4:30 PM.

The Luxemburg-Casco girls soccer team scored their first goals of the season on Tuesday against Green Bay NEW Lutheran.

Natalie Haen picked up her second shutout this season. L-C will play at Lakeland on Friday at 6:30 PM.

New Luxemburg-Casco baseball manager Ryan Brown got one milestone off his list last week when the Spartans topped Notre Dame in its opening game. The Pennsylvania native moved to the area after getting a promotion with Green Bay-based Schneider National and officially got the job last fall. Brown says the weather made it a challenge to get going this season.

The Spartans hope to get their second win of the season when they travel to Marinette for a 4:30 p.m. game.

The Luxemburg-Casco girls’ soccer team hopes a trip to Green Bay Tuesday will help open up their offense when they face NEW Lutheran. The Spartans have not scored a goal in their first two matches of the season, going 0-1-1 in the process. Monday marked the beginning the second week the Spartans were even able to get outside for workouts. Senior defender Hannah Jenkins told DoorCountyDailyNews.com at last week’s Spring Sports Preview says the cold does not make things any easier.

The Spartan’s match against the Blazers begins at 4:30 p.m.
