The Luxemburg-Casco soccer team makes it way to Clintonville in search of its first victory in a week.

The Spartans blew past Kewaunee, but have since dropped matches to Waupaca and Green Bay Southwest. Johan Amador has been a bright spot offensively, scoring seven goals in the three matches including five of them on opening night.

The Truckers are a perfect 3-0, including a pair of clean sheets in the Gresham Tournament. They have outscored their opponents 9-1 in their three matches.

The first touch is scheduled for 4:30 p.m.

The Luxemburg-Casco golf team is kicking off their week on the links in De Pere.

Freedom and Wrightstown will also make the trip for the triangular meet. Tee time is set for 9:30 a.m.

The Luxemburg-Casco volleyball's two losses were the only blemishes on an otherwise successful weekend at the Sun Prairie Invitational.

The team went 6-2 on the weekend, dropping its only sets of the weekend to Manitowoc. The championship game went three sets before the Spartans dropped the final frame 8-15. Head coach Jeff Frey said, " It was a good start to our season.  I like what I saw from our team, we played a lot of matches in two days and showed a lot of growth."

It was a great day for local runners at the Chief Kahquados Invitational on the campus of Gibraltar on Thursday.

The course was a little different this year than in the past, with runners doing three laps into neighboring Peninsula State Park rather than taking them through the baseball field.

The top team was Luxemburg-Casco, which saw its boys' team win its race while the girls' squad missed it by a single point. 

Individually, Southern Door's Brooke Strege finished the 5K distance at just over 21 minutes. The Spartans' Madilyn Bevins finished closely behind for second place. For the boys' the Spartans' Gabe Havel found himself chasing Mauston's Eli Joppart, who won his second straight Chief K title with a time of 16 minutes. Havel came in after at 17:24.

Official result have not been posted as of 6:30 a.m. Friday.

Junior quarterback Max Ronsman was the "player of the game", amassing over 200 yards on the ground with three rushing touchdowns and one through the air.  Seymour was dismantled by Fox Valley Lutheran 58-0 in Appleton last Friday and looks to bounce back against their old Bay Conference rival.

L-C Coach Neil Seering says he expects a tough game from Seymour and hopes for a fast start with no letdowns in the game.

You can tune into the pregame show on 104.1 WRLU starting at 6:45 pm with Paul Schmitt and Reece Robillard on the call.  The game will also be streamed on NewRadioSportsNetwork.com.

After a win against the Storm of Kewaunee, Luxemburg-Casco faces off against the Waupaca Comets. 

Waupaca was the top dog of the North Eastern Conference last season, going 12-3-2. They also faced off against Mosinee on Tuesday, with no score being reported from Waupaca. Luxemburg Casco, after facing off against Kewaunee, will begin conference play where they went 1-5-1 last season. 

The game will begin at 6:30 P.M. 

The Luxemburg-Casco golf team hits the road for a Thursday invitational in De Pere.

Ashwaubenon, Bay Port, Bonduel, De Pere, Freedom, Green Bay Preble, Marinette, Notre Dame De La Baie Academy, Oconto, Oconto Falls, Pulaski, Seymour, Shawano Community, Sheboygan North, Waupaca, West De Pere, Wrightstown, and Xavier are also scheduled to appear at the invitational being held at Mid-Vallee Golf Course in De Pere.

The Spartans have had a busy start to the season, but no results have been shared.

Tee time is set for 9 a.m. 

The Luxemburg-Casco soccer team will see a familiar opponent on the other side of the pitch Tuesday when Kewaunee visits for their season opener.

Both teams are coming off challenging 2021 campaigns with the Spartans managing a 3-12-2 record while the Storm failed to win a game. The Spartans lost to Plymouth 7-0 in their regional opener last year, ending the season on a three-game losing streak. Their last win was a 5-1 decision against the Storm, who went winless last season after a season-opening win against Green Bay West (1-15-0).

The two teams play at 6:30 p.m. 

The Luxemburg-Casco girls golf teams will not waste any time this week competing against other teams this week with a Monday meet.

The Spartans will host North Eastern Conference foes Denmark and Oconto Falls for a triangular meet at Northbrook Country Club for a 10 a.m. tee time.

The Luxemburg-Casco Spartans used a 34-0 run to cruise past the Waupaca Comets 47-21 on the road Friday night.

The Comets took an early lead when Parker Krcmar rushed in from 10 yards out to make it a 7-0 lead. Max Ronsman took over from there as he scampered in from 17 yards out and threw a 50 yard touchdown pass to Ryan Routhieaux to make it 14-7 after the first quarter. Ronsman would score twice in the second quarter, one from three yards and another from 82 yards as the Spartans were in control heading into halftime with a 27-7 advantage.

Christopher VanWielen open the third quarter with a five-yard score to make it 34-7, but the Comets would storm back to make it interesting. Krcmar threw a pair of touchdowns to Aaron Wolff and Andre Hendrix to tighten the score to 34-21. The Spartans turned back the tide in the fourth quarter as they forced two turnovers. VanWielen caught the ball off a tipped pass for the first interception that he would later turn into a three-yard rushing score. Sawyer Dorn picked off the second pass on an overthrown pass by Krcmar. The Spartans would drive the ball down the field, capping it off with a Jacob DeGrave 18-yard touchdown run.

Ronsman was the player of the game with four touchdowns on offense and a number of tackles on defense.

The Spartans are back in action on Friday night when they host the Seymour Thunder. The game will be carried live on 104.1 WRLU and NEWRadioSportsNetwork.com.

The Luxemburg-Casco Fishing Team reeled in some big bass during their recent Ephraim Derby.

Riley won the day with 10.40 pounds of fish caught, and he did so without catching the biggest bass of the day. Those honors went to Charlie (6.5 pounds) and John Jr. (5.3 pounds). You can see more from the derby and read more from the team's coaches below.

The Luxemburg-Casco Spartans will travel to Waupaca to take on the Comets in a non-conference football game Friday night in the season opener.

The Spartans are coming off an impressive 11-1 campaign last year that saw them win the North Eastern Conference going undefeated.  Making it to Level 3 in Division 2 playoffs, Luxemburg-Casco defeated Waupaca in Level 2 play 49-7 at home. 

Versatile Junior Max Ronsman will take over for Owen Deprez, who graduated, at quarterback and will have weapons like returning senior, Ryan Routhieaux, who led the Spartans in receptions last season.

The pregame is set for 6:45 pm on 104.1 WRLU and kickoff at 7 pm from Waupaca High School.  Paul Schmitt and Tim Kowols will have the play-by-play of the game that will also be streamed on New Radio Sports Network.

Spartan Coach Neil Seering revisits last season and Friday’s matchup on the Podcast Page at NewRadioSportsNetwork. 

Luxemburg-Casco’s senior wide receiver Ryan Routhieaux is getting pre-season recognition off the football field as the Spartans prepare for the 2022 campaign this fall.  Ranked 13th of the top 50 players to watch in the state this year, Routhieaux was the main wideout target for the Spartans last year snagging 35 receptions with 559 yards and six touchdowns.   He was also named First-Team All-Conference in the NEC.

The Al Toon Award is presented annually to the state’s top senior wide receiver or tight end as part of the WSN Senior Football Awards.

Routhieaux and the Spartans will travel to Waupaca Friday night to open the season against the Comets.  The game will be broadcast on 104.1 WRLU and New Radio Sports Network. 

After starting play last week, the Luxemburg-Casco girls' golf team begin their home slate with a meet at Northbrook Golf Course Monday.

The Spartans are scheduled to host Fox Valley Lutheran and Marinette beginning at 10 a.m.  The team is coming off a pair of scheduled meets in Oconto Falls and Oconto last week. No results were shared with the media. 

The JV will get their swings in on Friday when they compete against Ashwaubenon, Bay Port, De Pere, Green Bay Preble, Marinette, Notre Dame De La Baie Academy, Pulaski, Seymour, Shawano Community, Sheboygan North, and West De Pere. Th meet will take place at Highland Ridge Golf Course in De Pere.

The first local high school athletic event of the upcoming school year will take place on the golf course this morning in Oconto.

Luxemburg-Casco and Sturgeon Bay are slated to join Bonduel, NEW Lutheran, Oconto, and Oconto Falls at River Island Golf Course in Oconto Falls for their first competition of the season. 

The Spartans took sixth in their own regional last year, shooting a 440. The top returner for the Spartans could be senior Jane Olson and junior Bowie Bredael, who both finished in the top 25 in the WIAA Regional hosted on their home course of Northbrook Country Club. The Clippers had no participants in the meet.

Tee time is set for 9 a.m. on Thursday. Bonduel, Oconto, Sturgeon Bay, Oconto Falls, and Luxemburg-Casco will compete against each other again Friday when they travel to Irish Greens Golf Course in Oconto beginning at 9 a.m.

The Luxemburg-Casco Spartans are looking to repeat success from last season where they went 11-1 on the year with their only loss coming in Level 2 of the postseason against Menasha 27-13. LC outscored opponents 274-79 behind their senior workhorse running back Isaac VandenBush.

Every year the Spartans are a lock for contending in the NEC and usually a top 10 team in Division 3 in the Wissports rankings every week. Luxemburg Casco will look to replace their Quarterback and Running back duo that amounted over 52 total combined touchdowns on the season. They do return Wide Receiver and Cornerback Ryan Routhieaux back to the team this season. Routhieaux was top 6 in the NEC in forced fumbles on defense and second in the conference in receiving yards and touchdowns.

The Spartans every year will run out a contender onto the field every week of the season, and they could see themselves making another deep run into the playoffs again this year. The Spartans will travel to Waupaca for a week 1 showdown to showcase the talent they have on another team that will look to build upon what they did last season.
