There will be no four-peat for the Luxemburg-Casco volleyball team as they lost in straight sets to Xavier in Appleton Thursday night 25-20, 25-23, 25-15.

Head coach Jeff Frey credited Xavier's coaches and players in the team's first best-of-five match defeat  since October 19th, 2019. "All the credit goes to Luke and his team, they played well and put a lot of pressure on us.  They were just better than us tonight."

Standing out for the Spartans were Alayna Deprez (28 assists and 9 digs), Kylie Hanson (12 kills and 9 digs), Autumn Flynn (10 kills), and Brooke VandeHei (10 digs). 

"I am so incredibly proud of our ladies, night in and night out, we got everyone’s best shot, and they rose to the occasion so many times," Frey added. "What our team has been able to accomplish together over the past few seasons is incredible. The legacy our seniors leave behind is amazing, so much love and respect for our girls."

The senior class was a part of three straight state championships, including a COVID-impacted 2020 season where they did not drop a single set. 

Mariah Potter led the Hawks to the sectional final with an admirable performance as a setter, collecting 36 assists on the night.

The Luxemburg Casco Spartans will head on the road to Xavier as they take on the Hawks in a tough match in the WIAA sectional semifinals. 

The Spartans went through their regional rather easily, as they defeated Green Bay West in three sets, Plymouth in three sets, and most recently a NEC foe in Fox Valley Lutheran in four sets. L-C, the reigning champions in Division 2, will face a Xavier Hawks team in which the competition seems almost like a state championship type game to some. 

The Hawks of Xavier have swept both of their matches so far in the postseason on their way to a regional title. They swept the likes of Seymour and Freedom, and have the Spartans in their sights. An overall record of 35-7 for the Hawks this season is what gave them the first seed, and will be up for the fight that the Spartans bring. 

The match is set for 7:00 from Xavier. 

Winning regional titles at home is becoming a fall tradition for the Luxemburg-Casco volleyball team.

The Spartans toppled Fox Valley Lutheran 25-23, 25-20, 20-25, 26-24 to win the title and to improve to 38-8 on the season.

Standout performances include Alayna Deprez (45 assists and 19 digs), Cami Onell (19 kills), Autumn Flynn (17 kills and 6 blocks), and Brooke VandeHei (32 digs and 3 aces). 

Head coach Jeff Frey was thrilled with the grit and resiliency his team showed Saturday night. "What an amazing match tonight, we played so well for the first 2 1/2 sets, credit Wendy and her team.  They made us work for every last point."

The Luxemburg-Casco Spartans could not overcome a 21-0 deficit in the first half, falling 21-12 to the Fox Valley Lutheran Foxes Friday night in WIAA Division 3 Level 1 playoff action in Luxemburg.

The Foxes started out the scoring with an opening drive of 68 yards that was culminated by a one-yard run by Jack Egan.  Fox Valley Lutheran then took control of the game with a three-yard run by Egan and an 18-yard pass from quarterback Liam Heiges to Benett Reader to make the score 21-0 in the second quarter.

The Spartans came up with a big play late in the first half to stay in the game with a 40-yard strike from Braydon Loritz to Braden Schley with only :04 seconds left in the half to make it 21-6 after the extra point attempt was unsuccessful.

The game stayed scoreless through the third quarter, but the Spartans had a first and goal-to-go from the two with seven minutes left in the fourth quarter and could not score as a fourth down pass was intercepted.

The Spartans didn’t quit as they were able to rally with a 19-yard pass from Loritz to Sawyer Dorn with 1:23 left in the game to close the score to 21-12.  The two-point play failed and the Foxes recovered the ensuing onside kick to seal the victory.

#4 Luxemburg-Casco finishes the season at 5-5, while #5 Fox Valley Lutheran (6-4) will now travel to West Salem next Friday to play the #1 seeded Titans who defeated Waupaca 49-0.

The Luxemburg-Casco soccer team saw their season come to a close with 2-0 loss to host Kewaskum on Thursday.

They end their season with a 6-10-3 mark, rebounding from a 1-7 mark to start the year.

The Luxemburg-Casco Spartans volleyball team will play in the regional final on Saturday after they made quick work of Plymouth in three straight sets 25-10, 25-13, 25-17.

Leading the way for the Spartans were Alayna Deprez (37 assists and 10 digs), Kylie Hanson (15 kills), Autumn Flynn (10 kills), Cami Onell (10 kills), and Brooke VandeHei (16 digs). 

Head coach Jeff Frey is excited for another match against conference rival Fox Valley Lutheran for the regional title on Saturday at 7 p.m. after a strong semi-final performance. "I thought we were crisp tonight offensively, we ran some a lot of good stuff. Defensively we were really scrappy."

The Luxemburg-Casco Spartans hope to have history repeat itself Friday night as they host the Fox Valley Lutheran Foxes in a WIAA Level One Division 3 playoff game. 

The Spartans (3-4, 5-4 overall) are coming off a loss in their finale against Wrightstown last Friday but defeated the Foxes 16-14 two weeks ago in an NEC game.

Both teams come in with identical records, and Coach Neil Seering expects a close matchup and another tough game.

Fox Valley Lutheran is led by running back Jack Egan, who has 533 yards rushing, and the wide-out tandem of Owen Gerhardt and Benett Reader, who have 846 yards receiving yards collectively. 

Ryan Routhieaux leads the Spartans with 586 yards receiving as Luxemburg-Casco looks to make it two wins in the past three weeks against the Foxes.

The game's broadcast on 96.7 WBDK will start at 6:45 with the pregame and kick off at 7 pm from Luxemburg.  The game will also be steamed on NewRadioSportsNetwork.com with Paul Schmitt and Reece Robillard on the call.

You can listen to the interview with Coach Seering on the podcast page here. 

The Luxemburg Casco Spartans cross country team will travel to Brillion for a division 2 sectionals meet on Saturday. 

The Spartans overall have had a successful season, but have been lead by the boys team. Spencer Thiry and Gabe Havel have shined for the Spartans, who have 10 runners who are running at 20 minutes or under. A 21 person boys team looks destined to at least be a state trip contender. 

The girls team has been solid as well, with that team being lead by Madilyn Bevins and McKenna Rank. The numbers are there for them as well, as they have 24 girls who have been clocked in so far this season. 

The meet will be one step closer to a state trip for the Spartans. 

The #2 Spartans (36-8) will host #10 Plymouth in regional semi-final play on Thursday.  

The Spartans started the road to repeating as the state champions with a convincing three-set sweep of Green Bay West (25-5, 25-13, 25-4).  Alayna Deprez led the Spartans with 14 assists, with Autumn Flynn dominating at the net with eight kills.  Josie Dorner and Brook Vandehei each added ten aces and six aces, respectively, to provide a boost from the service line.  

Plymouth ended its regular season 7-22, including a 1-4 mark in the conference tournament and losing seven of its final ten matches. That didn't stop them from beating Little Chute in its opening round match against Little Chute 3-1, claiming the sets 26-24, 25-21, 21-25, 25-21.

Match time is set for 7 p.m.
 

The Luxemburg-Casco soccer team hits the Kewaskum pitch for its first WIAA Tournament action of 2022.

The Spartans finished their season with a 2-2-2 stretch to cap off the year 6-9-3. That includes a 3-1 loss to Kaukauna in their season finale last week.

Kewaskum went 9-8-3, ending their regular campaign with a 4-2 loss to Kettle Moraine Lutheran.

The winner of the match takes on the victor between Denmark and Plymouth on Saturday.

Luxemburg-Casco volleyball knows you cannot win three state titles in a row without winning your first playoff match.

The quest to win a three-peat at the Resch Center begins with an opening-round match on Tuesday against Green Bay West.

The Spartans swept their own tournament with wins over Green Bay Preble, Wisconsin Lutheran twice, Bay Port, Valders, and Appleton East. Boasting a 35-8 record, the Spartans have not lost since they lost to Divine Savior Holy Angels, Kimberly, and Kettle Moraine during the Charger Invite over a month ago.

The Wildcats are winless in 21 matches, winning only two sets this season. They went 0-2 at the Bay Conference Tournament, losing to Xavier and Menasha.

The first serve is scheduled for 7 p.m.

The Luxemburg Casco Spartans girl volleyball team was able to come away from their home meet with a first place victory, going 6-0 on the day. 

Pool Play:

Beat GB Preble 25-6, 25-18

Alayna Deprez (24 assists), Autumn Flynn  (16 kills), Kylie Hanson (7 kills and 7 digs), and Brooke VandeHei (11 digs).

Head coach Jeff Frey called it a good road win on Thursday, adding that he "thought we put a lot of pressure on them from the service line." 

The Luxemburg-Casco Spartans hope some home cooking will help them get back on the winning track as they host the Fox Valley Lutheran Foxes on Friday night.  The Spartans, losers of three straight, are coming off a hard-fought 35-30 loss to Denmark last week, while the Foxes dropped their second game in a row to the Wrightstown Tigers 22-14.  Luxemburg-Casco (2-3, 4-3 overall) need to win their last two North Eastern Conference games to automatically secure a playoff bid.  Fox Valley Lutheran (3-2, 5-2) possesses a balanced attack, with running back Jack Egan leading the way with 450 rushing yards with nine touchdowns.  The game will be broadcast on 96.7 WBDK and streamed on New Radio Sports Network with kickoff at 7 pm.  Paul Schmitt and Reece Robillard will have the call starting at 6:45 pm with the pregame show.  You can listen to L-C Coach Neil Seering’s interview on the podcast page here. 

The Luxemburg Casco Spartans girls volleyball team will take the court in Clintonville for a NEC conference match. 

The Spartans (7-0 NEC, 22-8 Overall), have been defending that state championship well, as they are still undefeated in the North Eastern Conference. Luxemburg Casco is coming off of an impressive 3-0 sweep of the Waupaca Comets on Tuesday, and visit the Truckers who are on the opposite side of the standings from them. 

Clintonville (0-6 NEC, 6-11 Overall), has had their fair share of struggles so far this season in NEC play, as they have not performed better than a loss in 4 sets or worse all year. The Truckers will look to pull off the upset Thursday night. 

The match is set to get underway at 7:00 P.M. from Clintonville. 

The Luxemburg-Casco Spartans picked up a convincing win at home Tuesday night, taking all three sets against the Waupaca Comets.  The Spartans won easily in the first two sets, winning 25-17 and 25-16.  The third set was closer, with L-C narrowly winning 25-21.  The Spartans were led by Alayna Deprez with 22 kills and 7 digs, Kylie Hanson had nine kills and 11 digs, and Autumn Flynn contributed seven kills and two blocks in the victory. Brooke VandeHei added 13 digs and four aces for Luxemburg-Casco (22-8, 7-0), who remains undefeated in the North Eastern Conference.   L-C Coach Jeff Frey said after the game, "it was a nice win, Waupaca is a much-improved team, and they were on a roll coming in.  I was happy with a lot of things we did tonight, we just need to continue to focus on the little things".

The Luxemburg Casco Spartans soccer team has turned their season around, and will take on a non-conference opponent in the Winneconne Wolves. 

The Spartans (3-3-1 NEC, 5-7-2 Overall), have been very impressive in the second half of the season so far, as in their last 5 games they are 3-0-2 and have not lost since September 16th against Port Washington. Luxemburg Casco will have a chance to add to that impressive streak as they head on the road to Winneconne. 

Winneconne (1-3 ECC, 6-7-2 Overall), has fallen off in the East Central Conference after a strong start to the year. Unlike the Spartans, and nearly the opposite, the Wolves are 1-5-1 in their last seven matches, and will be looking to finally get back towards their winning ways as they were in the beginning of the season. 

The match is set to begin at 4:30 in Winneconne.

The Luxemburg Casco Spartans are undefeated in their NEC schedule so far, and will look to keep the winning streak alive against the Waupaca Comets. 

The Spartans (6-0 NEC, 21-8 Overall), are once again proving that they will be tough to beat when it comes playoff time, as they are currently leading the NEC, and will be facing their hardest competition yet. The Comets of Waupaca currently sit tied for second in the NEC, and if they could pull the upset, would be sitting tied with the Spartans. Luxemburg Casco has played teams from all over the state however, once again strengthening their resume and their ability for a long run in the playoffs. 

Waupaca (5-1 NEC, 13-6 Overall), has had a very impressive season to date, with only losing one match so far in NEC play. Their one loss has come to the Fox Valley Lutheran Foxes, in a surprising 3-0 sweep. 

The match is set for 7:00 P.M. in Luxemburg Casco.
