The Clippers' winning streak includes three Packerland wins against Oconto (3-1), NEW Lutheran (3-0), and Kewaunee (3-1).

The Vikings saw Chloe Alexander hit a major milestone earlier this week with 1000 assists, but they saw their season-long conference losing streak continue with a 3-1 loss to Algoma in their last match.   

The opening serve is scheduled for 7 p.m.

The success of the DCU girls' high school swim team continues with their conference win against Marinette on Thursday, September 21st, and their second-place finish at the Plymouth Panther Invite on Saturday, September 23rd.

The team continues to remain undefeated in the Bay Conference for the season. They have yet to score below 5th place at invitationals as well.

Senior Cassie Rankin (SEV)  finished 1st overall at the Panther Invite in the 200-yard freestyle and 3rd overall in the 500-yard freestyle. She was the top scorer for DCU as well, awarding the team 36 overall points. The next top scorer was senior Dancia Neville (SDHS) with her 1st-place finish in the 100-yard breaststroke and 4th-place finish in the 200-yard individual medley, scoring 35 points for the team. The remaining seniors on the team also had success including Natalia Michalski’s (SBHS) finishes in the 50-yard freestyle and 100-yard freestyle scoring 26 overall points. Aurora Breci (SEV) scored 19 points and Paula Wienke (SBHS) scored 7 points. The team will take a short break but it will be back in competition at Shawano High School on Thursday, October 5th.

Each of the three scores for the Clippers came through the air. After a leaping 3rd down catch by Patrick Haese extended the drive, Danny Lodl would find Kordel Anderson in the first quarter from 24 yards out to open up the scoring.  Eli Schuster would add the extra point giving the Clippers the 7-0 lead.  In the second quarter, Lodl would find Bryce Plzak for a 45-yard touchdown. The extra point was blocked leading to a 13-0 halftime score.

Oconto would shift players around in the second half, moving Cooper Campshure to receiver instead of Quarterback, and moving Kyle Bowman up into the QB, from running back.  The opening drive of the half saw success when Oconto's Dominic Taylor would score on an 11-yard carry, cutting the lead to 13-6.  Oconto would recover an onside kick catching the Clippers off guard, but the Clippers' defense would prevent any more Oconto scores.  

Bryce Plzak would add a second touchdown to cap the scoring with a 75-yard touchdown reception in the fourth quarter which would send the Clippers happily into what is left of their Homecoming festivities with a 20-13 victory, and a 3-1 conference, 4-2 overall record.  

The Clippers will be on the road the rest of their regular season, starting with a trip to Kewaunee on September 29th in a game that will be broadcast on 104.1 WRLU.

Ethan DeNamur registered the game's first tally 12 minutes and Carter Schultz was able to enter the conversation just before halftime with a goal in the 39th minute. Zach Olson would deliver an insurance goal in the second half, finding the back of the net during the match's 60th minute.

The Sturgeon Bay Clippers hope to rebound from their heartbreaking 20-15 loss to Antigo last Friday night when they welcome the Bonduel Bears to Memorial Field Friday night.

The Clippers had the ball deep in Red Robins territory in the final minutes before they were eventually turned away. Danny Lodl threw for 276 yards and two scores in the loss that saw Bryce Plzak bring 15 balls for 215 yards and both touchdowns. 

The Bears have opened their season 0-2, failing to score more than 12 points in both the Two Rivers and Coleman matchups. Noah Weier has 190 yards and two touchdowns across two games this season.

Jacob Nate and Reece Robillard will have the call on U-102.1 beginning at 6:45 p.m. for the pregame show and kickoff at 7 p.m.

The Sturgeon Bay Clippers looked strong from the opening tap and never took their foot off the gas until the final whistle in an 8-0 win over the Algoma Wolves Thursday night. The scoring started early for the Clippers with Kayden Klotz finding the back of the net in the second minute of play off a cross from Olson (1-0). Then Klotz scored again in the 15th minute (2-0). FInn Stephenson, assisted by Will Estes, made the score 3-0 in the 18th minute and Klotz notched the hat trick in the 32nd minute. The score was 4-0 at the half. The Clippers started the second half fast, as they did in the first half, with a goal two minutes into play (5-0). That was Klotz's 4th on the night. In the 49th minute, Ethan DeNamur made the score 6-0, Finn Stephenson added his second, and the senior, who was returning to the line-up for the first time this season and was helping control the midfield, Aldo Rangel ended the game 8 minutes early with his first goal of the season. The Wolves Defense played strong as they were tested all night, led by Zeitler and Kirchman.

The Clippers are back in action this weekend when they take on The Prairie School and Kenosha Tremper in The Prairie School Quad. They open up the series of fixtures on Friday with a 7 p.m. first kick against The Prairie School. A consistent rival of the Clippers in the state tournament, The Prairies School opened their season on August 28th with a 2-0 win against Burlington.

The next broadcast of Clippers soccer will be Tuesday when Sturgeon Bay travels to De Pere. Game time is 6:30 p.m. and the broadcast will start at 6:15 p.m. on U-102.1.
