The Sevastopol defense had no answer for the three-headed rushing attack of Kroix Kempka, Grant Thomson, and Dyllan Flynn as Suring ended the Pioneers' season Friday night 42-22 on U-102.1.

The two teams traded empty possessions to start the game before Thomson scored the game's first points on a six-yard touchdown run to make it 6-0. On the next possession, the Pioneers' Ray Johnson provided an answer to begin the second quarter on a high note when he scored from three yards out to make it 8-6.

Kempka gave the lead right back to the Eagles on a three-yard rush, helping Suring take a 12-8 lead into the locker room.

The Eagles ran away with the game in the second half, scoring on all four possessions. The spark that lit the fuse was an 80-yard interception return for a touchdown by Flynn on a Bo Tanck pass that not only put points on the board for the Eagles, but prematurely ended one of the Pioneers' better drives of the evening. Thomson would later make it 24-8 before Johnson found the end zone on a long touchdown pass from Tanck to make it 24-14 entering the final frame.

Thomson would score once, and Kempka found the end zone two more times to make it 42-14 before Tanck found the end zone one final time in the closing minutes to give the Pioneers one final touchdown before the season came to a close.

The Pioneers ended the season 7-2 and a second-place finish in the Packerland-8. They will lose Trey Albertson, Ray Johnson, Zach Genske, Easton Henry, Jaxon Rankin, Anthony Estevez, Harry Schartner, and Porter Micoliczyk to graduation.

The Sevastopol Pioneers travel around the bay for their Level 2 Playoff matchup against Suring on Friday night.

The Pioneers are coming off a 32-6 win against Niagara last Saturday afternoon. The Pioneers scored on their first two possessions in the first quarter on strikes from quarterback Bo Tanck to receiver Cash Kuehn from 30 and 34 yards to make it 14-0 Sevastopol after one quarter.  After giving up a touchdown, the Pioneers responded with a five-yard run by Ray Johnson with only 28 seconds left in the half to take a 20-6 lead. Both teams exchanged possessions after halftime before the Pioneers took a commanding 26-6 lead on a 10-yard scamper by Tanck with 2:15 left in the third quarter. Tanck connected again with Kuehn on a 21-yard pass with 9:17 left in the fourth quarter to close out the scoring and secure the Pioneers' win.

The Eagles advanced to Level 2 after beating Elkhart Lake-Glenbeulah 46-19 last Saturday. Grant Thomson (140 yards, 1 TD), Dyllan Flynn (122 yards, 2 TD), and Kroix Kempka (102 yards, 3 TD) accounted for all of the touchdowns for the Eagles to improve to 9-2 on the season. Kempka leads the team with 865 yards on 94 carries and 17 touchdowns. 

Last season, the Pioneers won both matchups, including a 40-14 win in Level 1 of the playoffs.

Tim Kowols will have the call on U-102.1 beginning at 6:45 p.m. with the pregame show, followed by the kickoff at 7 p.m.

Two familiar Packerland Conference foes will meet Thursday night in Institute when Sevastopol welcomes Algoma for WIAA Volleyball Regional Semifinal action.

The Pioneers are 21-13 on the season and finished in fourth place in the Packerland Conference. They are trying to snap a five-match losing streak, which includes dropping eight of the 10 sets played at Luxemburg-Casco over the weekend.

The Wolves are coming off a 3-0 sweep of Omro on Tuesday. Winning the match 25-18, 25-20, 26-24, the Wolves were led by Natalie Ray (6 Kills, 2 Aces, 10 Digs, 21 Receptions), Lauren Loucks (14 Kills, 4 Digs, 1 Block), Sadie Rikkola (6 Kills, 3 Aces, 14 Digs), Eva Liu (7 Digs, 19 Receptions), and Aleasha Granius (16 Assists, 2 Aces, 6 Digs).

The Pioneers are 2-0 against the Wolves this season, taking all five sets.

First serve is set for 7 p.m.

The training miles are behind Sevastopol graduate Max Krohn, with only the 50-mile journey between Gills Rock and Sturgeon Bay remaining.

The former Sturgeon Bay resident has been training for this weekend's Fall 50 since announcing his goal of raising $20,000 for the Boys & Girls Club of Door County and its healthy living initiatives.

The organization holds a special place in the heart of his grandfather, Dave Resch, who has served the club for 20 years.

Krohn said in August that his grandfather's stories, along with his interactions with club officials and members, would provide plenty of motivation to get outside and run.

Entering the final week, Krohn is about halfway to his fundraising goal. Resch hopes people will be inspired by Krohn's story, which includes a spinal injury that temporarily paralyzed him from the neck down, and his determination to improve the lives of local youth through his fundraising efforts.

Donations can be made to Krohn's fundraising campaign online.

The Fall 50 begins at 6:30 a.m. Saturday for solo runners like Krohn. Teams will depart from The Shoreline Restaurant in Gills Rock in waves at 7:30 a.m., 8:20 a.m., 9:10 a.m., and 10 a.m.

The course takes runners through Ellison Bay, Sister Bay, Ephraim, Peninsula State Park, Fish Creek, Juddville and Egg Harbor before finishing at Sunset Park in Sturgeon Bay.

The course remains open to traffic, so motorists and runners are encouraged to use extra caution throughout the event.

The Sevastopol Pioneers were well represented at the All-Packerland Conference, with 8 teams, including one of the conference's top awards.

Along with Valley Christian's Sam Gloudemans, Sevastopol quarterback Bo Tanck was named the conference's offensive player of the year. Including Saturday's playoff win over Niagara, Tanck has thrown for 1,703 yards and 25 touchdowns while rushing for 496 yards and eight scores for the Pioneers. Tanck was one of 10 selections for the Pioneers, including unanimous selections Cash Kuehn (Wide Receiver), Ray Johnson (Linebacker), and Harry Schartner (Defensive Lineman).

The Sevastopol Pioneers will begin their second straight playoff stint with a home game when they welcome Niagara to Institute for a Saturday matinee on 105.1 The GOAT. 

The Pioneers, ranked 8th in the Bound Wisconsin Poll and boasting a 7-1 mark, are a #3 seed after they topped their rival Gibraltar Vikings 48-14 in the regular season finale for both teams on 105.1 The GOAT. The Pioneers scored on every possession except one in the game, which included four scores in the first quarter. The first three touchdowns came courtesy of Bo Tanck's arm as he found Cash Kuehn for 33-yard and 16-yard scores and Reid LeClair from four yards out. LeClair added an eight-yard touchdown run to make it 32-0. A third Tanck-to-Kuehn connection from 13 yards out started the running clock early at 38-0. The Vikings offense struggled to get going as they punted twice after two botched onside kick recoveries gave the Pioneers excellent field position. LeClair capped off the scoring for the Pioneers with a short touchdown run between a pair of Vikings scores.

The Badgers are the #6 seed and enter the playoffs 5-5, including two forfeits. They had a two-game winning streak snapped last Thursday with a 46-22 loss to Lena/St. Thomas Aquinas. 

The two teams met each other in Institute on September 18th, with the Pioneers emerging victorious 43-0. In that game, the scoring came from both sides of the ball as Cash Kuehn scored on a 20-yard pass from Bo Tanck, who registered his own touchdown on a 50-yard run. The Pioneers scored three times on defense as well, with Tanck, Jayden McCormick, and Ray Johnson all taking interceptions the other way for touchdowns.

Paul Schmitt will have the call on 105.1 The GOAT and NEWRadioSportsNetwork.com beginning at 12:45 p.m., followed by the kickoff at 1 p.m. The winner will either travel to #2 Suring or host #7 Elkhart Lake-Glenbeulah next Friday.

The Sevastopol Pioneers will head to Luxemburg-Casco on Saturday for the Spartan Invite, with an opportunity to sharpen their game ahead of the WIAA tournament.

Sevastopol enters the tournament with a strong 21-8 record and will look to bounce back after a five-set loss to Sturgeon Bay earlier this week. The Pioneers won the first two sets in that match before Sturgeon Bay rallied to win the final three.

Luxemburg-Casco will provide another challenge, entering the matchup with a winning conference record. The Spartans have shown they can compete against a variety of opponents throughout the season.

The match is scheduled for 10 a.m. Saturday at Luxemburg-Casco.

The Door County United (DCU) girls swim team fell to Seymour High School 98-70 on Thursday, Oct. 15.

The Pioneers, ranked 8th in the Bound Wisconsin Poll and boasting a 7-1 mark, are a #3 seed and will host #6 Niagara on Saturday at 1 p.m. It sets up a potential #7 Elkhart Lake-Glenbeulah as a reprise of its Week 4 win or a trip to #2 Suring, whom they played in last year's tournament opener.

Packerland 8 Champion Valley Christian is a #1 seed on the other side of the bracket, opening their tournament run against #8 seed and fellow conference member Green Bay NEW Lutheran/Providence Academy.

The Sevastopol and Kewaunee teams hit the road for a tournament hosted by Oconto Falls on Saturday.

Sevastopol needed all five sets to put away Gibraltar, earning a 3-2 victory in a back-and-forth Packerland Conference matchup on Tuesday. A huge help in the Pioneer win was Savanna Kiehnau, who served out the last two games with three aces. Brynn Schartner had 15 kills and 14 digs, and Aleah Volkmann had 16 kills.

Matches begin at 9 a.m. with the host Panthers, Bonduel, Chilton, NEW Lutheran, Peshtigo, and Two Rivers also participating. 

A quick lead led to a fast game as the Sevastopol Pioneers topped their rival Gibraltar Vikings 48-14 in the regular season finale for both teams on 105.1 The GOAT.

The Pioneers scored on every possession except one in the game, which included four scores in the first quarter. The first three touchdowns came courtesy of Bo Tanck's arm as he found Cash Kuehn for 33-yard and 16-yard scores and Reid LeClair from four yards out. LeClair added an eight-yard touchdown run to make it 32-0.

A third Tanck-to-Kuehn connection from 13 yards out started the running clock early at 38-0. The Vikings offense struggled to get going as they punted twice after two botched onside kick recoveries gave the Pioneers excellent field position.

The Vikings finally got on the scoreboard at the end of the third quarter after occupying much of the period. Brady White followed up a long run with a one-yard run to narrow the deficit. After LeClair extended the lead back out thanks to a short touchdown run by LeClair, Bultman scored for the Vikings one last time to cap the night's scoring.

The Pioneers will now wait for their opponent in the WIAA Playoffs, which will be announced on Saturday after going 7-1 on the season.

The Vikings saw their season come to a close with a 1-7 mark.

Sevastopol needed all five sets to put away Gibraltar, earning a 3-2 victory in a back-and-forth Packerland Conference matchup.

Gibraltar grabbed the early advantage with a 25-18 win in the opening set before Sevastopol answered with a 25-17 victory in the second. The Vikings responded by taking the third 25-17, putting the Pioneers one set away from a loss.

Sevastopol answered again, taking the fourth set 25-16 to force a decisive fifth. With the match on the line, the Pioneers edged Gibraltar 15-12 to complete the comeback.

A huge help in the Pioneer win was Savanna Kiehnau who served out the last two games with three aces. Brynn Schartner had 15 kills and 14 digs, with Aleah Volkmann had 16 kills. The Vikings were led by Azucena Jauregui (10 kills, 13 digs, 3 blocks), Ella Clarke (9 kills, 4 blocks), Ema Collak (9 kills, 11 digs), Aileen Torres (7 kills, 3 aces, 12 digs), and Isla Fagundes (33 assists, 12 digs).

For the first time since 2010, the Sevastopol football team left its matchup against Algoma with a victory, beating the Wolves last Friday 28-12. 

The Pioneers fell behind 12-0 in the first quarter before taking a 14-12 lead at the break and adding 14 more points in the second half.

The Pioneers were led by Bo Tanck, who threw for 192 yards and two touchdowns while adding 98 yards and a score on the ground. Ray Johnson scored the other touchdown on a 63-yard run. Cash Kuehn was Tanck's main target, catching nine passes for 155 yards and both touchdowns.

The Pioneers, now ranked ninth in the Bound Wisconsin poll, will look to pad its resume for the playoffs with a Thursday night matchup against Gibraltar. Tim Kowols will have the call of the matchup on 105.1 The GOAT and NEWRadioSportsNetwork.com beginning at 6:45 p.m., with the pregame show followed by the kickoff at 7 p.m. The Wolves will wrap up their 2026 campaign on Thursday when they travel to Oneida Nation to face the Thunderhawks.

They return to action on Tuesday when they battle Gibraltar.

The Sevastopol Pioneers pull hosting duties for Thursday's cross-country meet when Algoma, Gibraltar, Luxemburg-Casco, and Sturgeon Bay also come to run the hills of Cherry Hills Golf Course in Sturgeon Bay.

The first races begin at 3:45 p.m.

LAST ACTION

A small but mighty Algoma cross country team traveled to Mishicot on Thursday for the Jim Bremser Invitational. Brayden Brumm was the lone Wolf on the boys' side, finishing in 22:52 to take 171st. For the girls, Ellie Reif ran a time of 22:43 to lead the girls.

The Gibraltar cross country team had a strong showing at Thursday's Jim Bremser Invitational in Mishicot. For the girls, Olivia Pelkey ran a personal best time of 25:55 to lead the Vikings with a 77th-place finish. On the boys' side, Graham De Voe ran a time of 19:26 to take 21st overall while two of his teammates ran a season-best time.

It was another race and another win for Luxemburg-Casco's Ezra Treml and Claire DuChateau on Thursday, this time at the Jim Bremser Invitational in Mishicot. Treml covered the 5K course in 16:40 to win the race by 16 seconds, beating out Kiel's Austin Helms, West De Pere's Zachary Natzke, and Appleton West's Kegan Phalin. Marcus Doell and Brayden Raydart cracked the Top 25 to help lead the Spartans to a team win. DuChateau had a 30-second margin of victory to win the girls' race with a time of 19:03, with Peshtigo's Berkeley Chaltry, Notre Dame's Anna Miller, and Bay Port's Eloise Holman trailing her. Gretta Annoye ran a time of 21:50 to help the Spartans to a 3rd-place finish behind Bay Port and Notre Dame.

Breiah Newton took on bigger schools as Sevastopol's lone varsity runner in Saturday's Len Nikolai Invite. Newton ran a time of 21:22 to come in the Top 50 overall for the Pioneers.

Sevastopol volleyball player Leah Schopf reached a big milestone on Monday night as the Pioneers beat Bonduel in a three-match sweep 26-24, 25-17, 25-13.

Head coach Rox Schopf was especially proud of her junior libero, who reached 1,000 digs in her high school career, a mark she says takes most players four years to reach. 

Brynn Schartner had 11 kills and 10 digs, while Aleah Volkmann had 14 kills and three aces to complement Schopf in the win.

The Pioneers improve to 16-6 on the season and play Kewaunee Thursday night for Senior Night.

The Sevastopol volleyball returns home on Monday with a non-conference matchup against Bonduel.

The two teams just played over the weekend in Algoma, with the Pioneers taking the match 2-1 (25-11, 17-25, 15-5).

Sevastopol continued its offensive surge Friday night, rolling past Oneida Nation 60-12 as multiple Pioneers found the end zone.

Bo Tanck accounted for four touchdowns, scoring twice on the ground and adding two touchdown passes. Cash Kuehn hauled in one of those scoring passes, while Roman LeClair added two rushing touchdowns.

Kolt Pfister also found the end zone on the ground, while Ray Johnson gave the Pioneers another spark with a kickoff return touchdown.

The win marks Sevastopol's fourth straight victory and moves the Pioneers to 5-1 on the season. The offense has been especially productive during the current winning streak, with Sevastopol scoring more than 100 points across its last two games.

The Pioneers will look to keep the momentum going next Friday, Oct. 2, when they travel to take on Algoma.

The Pioneers boasted one Top 20 finish and several season-best times at Thursday's Jim Bremser Invitational in Mishicot. For the girls, Breiah Newton covered the 5K course in 20:42 to take 15th overall. Four of her teammates broke their season's best time, three of which were personal records. On the boys' side, Landon Sitte paced the Pioneers with a time of 21:42 to finish in 68th place, while Axel Tlatempa was close behind in 70th place with a time of 21:27.3.

More than two dozen other teams will take on the Meadow Links Golf Course path on Saturday when the first races begin at 10 a.m.

The DCU Girls High School Swim team was unfortunately defeated by Marinette High School on September 24th, 2025. The overall score of the evening was Marinette 82 and DCU 66.

Despite the loss, DCU placed first in six events of the evening. The 200-yard Medley Relay, consisting of Quinn Sperber (SDHS), Shaeffer Rass (SEV), Hazel Monfils (SDHS), and Brennan Rass (SEV), was one of those first-place finishes. Individual events with a first-place finish included S. Rass in the 200-yard Freestyle, Monfils in the 200-yard Individual Medley, and Sperber in the 100-yard Butterfly and the 100-yard Backstroke. Additionally, the 400-yard Freestyle Relay finished first. Sperber, B. Rass, S. Rass, and Monfils were the participants for that relay.

Overall, the team competed to the best of their abilities, and we look forward to our next conference matchup on Thursday, October 1st, versus New London High School at the Door County YMCA. Swimming starts at 6:00 p.m.; come support DCU!
