Southern Door baseball gets opening day victory

Opening day for the Southern Door baseball team started off slowly but by the end of the ballgame, the Eagles had come out victorious. In a game that was originally scheduled to be played in Brussels, the game was moved to Green Bay. Southern Door won 9-4 over Green Bay NEW Lutheran as all the runs scored by both teams came in the last four innings.

 

The Eagles were no-hit through the first three innings by NEW pitcher Samuel Meerstein. Once he left the game, Southern Door was able to capitalize. Derik LeCaptain picked up three hits and two RBI as Southern Door scored nine runs the last four innings including three in the 6th and four in the 7th.

 

Tyler Kroll started on the mound for Southern Door and put up a solid outing allowing only one run over four innings. He also went 2-5 with 4 RBI at the plate. LeCaptain came out of relief to pick up the win.

 

The Eagles are now 1-0 on the season. Their next game is scheduled for Tuesday at Sevastopol, first pitch at 5 PM. 

Eagle softball wins by slaughter-rule in Green Bay

In a game that was moved from Brussels to Green Bay, the location didn't matter for the Eagle softball team as they dominated Green Bay NEW Lutheran 21-2 in five innings on Saturday. Southern Door started scoring runs immediately by putting an eight on the board in the first. The Eagles would go on to score in all five innings. Kendra Dantoin and Nicole Norton each had two hits.

 

Grace LeGrave had a good day on the mound for the Eagles as she only allowed two hits and struck out seven in the win. Josie Nelson took the loss for the Blazers.

 

It was a good sight to see the team score so many runs after being shut out in their first game 1-0 against Oconto on Thursday. Their next game is scheduled for Tuesday at Sevastopol, first pitch at 5 PM.

Athletic trainer Tia Jackson returning the favor

DoorKewauneeHighSchoolSports.com is starting a series dedicated to the continued safety of our student-athletes on the field, at practice and in preparation for competition. Door County Medical Center provides athletic trainers to the four local schools, a service that ensures the student-athletes receive top tier care during all sports seasons.

 

Licensed Athletic Trainer Tia Jackson had the opportunity to work with Sturgeon Bay’s fall sports athletes. She is also Clinical Athletic Trainer. While Jackson loves the clinical training and rehab, Jackson also enjoys covering all four local high schools. She says the most rewarding part of her job is seeing an injured student-athlete make a full recovery.

 

 

Tia Jackson, formerly Tia Jandrin knows all about the long road to recovery after an injury. As a freshman at Southern Door, Tia started experiencing patellar dislocations. Then sophomore year, she tore her ACL and MCL in basketball. Her high school athletic trainer Holly Ray made the world of difference for her and she wants to do the same for the next generation of student-athletes in Door County.

 

Tia Jackson earned has a bachelor of science in athletic training and a master of science in clinical and translational rehabilitation science with an emphasis on biomechanics and a teaching certificate from Marquette University.

Eagles edged by Blue Devils

A great day at the place for Jacqlun Atkins and Kyle Neinas went for naught Thursday afternoon in a 1-0 loss to the Oconto Blue Devils in Packerland Conference softball action. Atkins had three hits and Neinas tacked on another two of her own, but none were able to push across a run. The only score in the game came on Blue Devil double off the bat of Morgan Durand to drive Maggie Sohrwelde. The Eagles potentially could get back on the diamond on Saturday for a slated game against NEW Lutheran.

Derik Hawkey steps down as Southern Door boys basketball coach

Southern Door varsity boys basketball coach Derik Hawkey will not be back on the sidelines for the Eagles next season. The announcement comes after a 2018-2019 campaign that included the end of a 40 consecutive win streak within Packerland Conference. Hawkey led the Eagles to four of their five straight conference championships. Hawkey confirmed the news Wednesday but wanted to let the dust settle before conducting an on-air interview. 

 

As a player, Derik Hawkey is one of the top three all-time scorers. His pupil Kyle Daoust passed him on the all-time list in the postseason last month. Hawkey and Daoust each sit behind Nathan Vogel as the all-time leading scorer.

 

Parents and players have said what makes Derik such a great coach for Southern Door is that many of his players watched Hawkey star in Eagle Gymnasium when they were in elementary school. He related to the players in so many ways and all-time great Eagles like Daoust, Derik LeCaptain, Nick LeCaptain and Mitchell Gerend have all praised coach Hawkey in past interviews on DoorCountyDailyNews.com. Former Eagles coaches like Ben Rikkola and Josh Rankin have also said tremendous things about Hawkey as well.

 

The Eagles will certainly miss having Derik Hawkey on the sidelines next year.

Southern Door baseball looking for a bounce back season

Southern Door baseball is looking to bounce back from a rough 2018 campaign. The Eagles finished 2-13 overall after going 16-10 in 2017. The Southern door hitters would like to have the same success as Chris Wery, who played for Southern Door from 2002-2005 and racked up 106 hits in those four years. That broke the record for most hits in Southern Door baseball history.
 
Chris Wery was the correct answer to Monday’s trivia question which was, “Who owns the record for most career hits in Southern Door baseball history?"

Southern Door Athletic Boosters play crucial role with technology

From exchanging game film to help student-athletes make highlight reels for colleges, it may not have been possible without the support of the Southern Door Athletic Boosters. The booster club, which has nine board members attend its monthly meetings, helps sponsor the football team’s H

Hudl membership, which helps record the games and makes it easier for the film to get in the hands of the people who need it. Southern Door Athletic Booster president Heidi Gutschow says the organization is raising funds to help expand its use in the future.

The Southern Door Craft Show and concession stand sales are two ways the Southern Door Athletic Boosters raise money for a variety of different projects in recent years including new balls and bats for the baseball and softball teams and a new scoreboard in the Eagle Gymnasium.

Southern Door's LeCloux places at women's state tournament

Freshman Katelyn LeCloux became Southern Door’s first women’s wrestling medalist Sunday after taking sixth place at the Wisconsin Wrestling Federation State Tournament in Marshfield. A pin in her first match against Nayeli Garay guaranteed her a podium finish. LeCloux was unable to pick up another win, but according to the Southern Door Wrestling Club Facebook page, she was within a move or two to finish even higher. LeCloux was a varsity reserve at Southern Door this past season, placing at the Cutler Classic, Bay Port JV, and Preble JV tournaments.

Southern Door shocked by Valders AGAIN on 102.1 FM

Southern Door boys basketball was eliminated from the postseason tournament for the sixth time in seven years by the Valders Vikings in a 58-52 devastating defeat Saturday night. The Vikings celebrated on the hardwood at Eagle Gymnasium in front of a shocked Southern Door crowd live on 102.1 FM WRKU.

 

The Vikings took their first lead in the game with 8:44 remaining in the second half.

 

 

Kyle Daoust led all scorers with 23 points. He finished just four points shy of tying Nathan Vogel for the all-time scoring lead in Southern Door school history. Vogel keeps the record with 1,566 points while Daoust finished his Eagles career with 1,562.

 

The difference in the game was Southern Door's 6/17 free throw shooting. 

 

Derik LeCaptain and Max Pierre each scored ten points and Ryan Claflin tallied seven points in the loss.

 

Valders was led by Trevor Leist's 23 points. Reese Brown scored 13 points and Fletcher Dallas scored 10 points in the win.

 

After an (11-10) regular season Valders is back to the sectional semi-final Thursday night in Chilton. The Vikings were just (7-7) in the Eastern Wisconsin Conference but their drive and dish offense again did in the Eagles.

 

Southern Door loses one of the all-time great senior classes and will leave a gaping void for the program to try and replace next season. The lone representatives left in the tournament from Door and Kewaunee COunties is now Gibraltar playing in Division 5 Thursday against N.E.W. Lutheran.

 

Southern Door pushes past Kiel 52-42 on 102.1

Southern Door was tested in their WIAA Division 3 regional semi-final matchup with Kiel broadcast live on 102.1 FM WRKU Friday night. The Eagles trailed until the 14:52 mark of the second half. The #1 seed trailed by as many as ten points in the first half but recovered nicely in the second half. 

 

Kyle Daoust passed his coach Derik Hawkey with 3:48 left to play in the first half as the second leading scorer all-time at SDHS. His 24 points were a game-high. Daoust now trails Nathan Vogel by just 27 points and could become the school's all-time leading scorer in a round two matchup Saturday night against Valders.

 

Derik LeCaptain tallied 14 points and Ryan Claflin added ten including two rim-rocking dunks in the contest.
