Despite a close loss in the semifinals, Sturgeon Bay/Sevastopol's Spencer Madsen's weekend at the WIAA Individual State Wrestling Tournament will continue on Saturday.

Madsen dropped a close decision to Gunnar Johnson (Gale-Ettrick-Tremp./Mel.-Min.) at 157 pounds for only his second loss of the season in the semifinal. He will get to wrestle for third place on Saturday. Tiani LeMieux's weekend ended soon than she would have liked as she suffered a second defeat by pin on Friday morning to eliminate her from the tournament.

The Sturgeon Bay Clippers boys basketball made Thursday night a memorable one for its seven seniors with a 55-52 win over NEW Lutheran.

In their potentially final home game as Clippers, Jackson Starr and Braeden Evers led the way with 16 points apiece while Reid Nelson led the Blazers with a game-high 20 points.

The Clippers will try to extend their season next week when they open the WIAA Tournament against Packerland Conference foe Peshtigo.

On Tuesday night, the Sturgeon Bay Clippers' season ended with a 50-35 loss at Tomahawk. The Clippers battled back after starting out down 10-0, but they just couldn't score enough in key stretches and fell by 15 points, missing 15 free throws in the game.

Tomahawk was led by Alberg with 18 and Long with 16.

The Clippers were led by Dasha Yelysheva with 11 and Regan Kasten with 8.  Yarrow Gottelman had 7, Cady Carlson had 6, and Cora Frangipane had 3.

Sturgeon Bay Coach Dan Tjernagel said "Regardless of how a season goes and the number of games won or lost, it's hard when it comes to an end.  I'm proud of the group for battling, defending, and rebounding, even though scoring points was often a struggle for us.  In the end, all I asked was that they gave it their best--and once again, they did exactly that."

With more than 50 wins under his belt this season, Sturgeon Bay/Sevastopol's Spencer Madsen will have the opportunity to add his total in Madison after winning the Seymour Sectional Saturday.

Madsen did not need the full six minutes in any of his three matches, winning by pin in his first match before earning technical falls in his final two bouts to win the title at 157 pounds. Zak Wrobel, Ethan Denamur, and Harry Schartner were each able to wrestle a second match before bowing out in the consolation rounds.

She was pinned by Ava Armatti (Neenah) before wrestling her way back into second place. Izzy Andreae and Lanie Brauer each only had one match, but they battled into the second period before having their season end via a pin.

Neither team could get their offense off the ground early in the first half as the Vikings were able to hold the Clippers scoreless for nearly seven minutes, only to produce six points during that span on buckets from Kayin Jackson, Jeffrey Mize, and Aaron Brey. After Jackson Starr broke the scoreless stretch, Benjamin Ash took over as he knocked down three threes en route to a 11-point first half. The Clippers returned the favor to the Vikings defensively, holding their hosts to just seven points during the final 10 minutes as they took a 23-15 lead into the locker room.

The Clippers' offense barraged the Vikings with seven three-pointers in the second half, four of which came off the fingertips of Hayden Tracy as he scored 14 of his team-high 16 points in the second half. The Vikings did what they could to keep pace with Brey, Liam Lindenberg, and Luke Rericha hitting shots from behind the arc, but ultimately missed too many shots underneath to keep up with the Clippers.

In addition to Tracy's 16 points, Ash scored 14 points and Starr added 11 points in the Clippers' win ahead of their matchup against Kewaunee. 

The Vikings were led by Jackson's 11 points with Mize dumping in six points while Brey and Lindenberg each added five points. The Vikings will host Algoma for senior night on Monday. Tim Kowols will have the call on 105.1 The GOAT and NEWRadioSportsNetwork.com beginning at 6:45 p.m. with the pregame show followed by the opening tip at 7 p.m.

The regular season is down to one game for the Sturgeon Bay Lady Clippers after they fell to NEW Lutheran 66-41 on Thursday.

The Clippers fell behind in the first half before playing them evenly in the second half, never being able to make up enough ground. The Blazers had four players reach double figures on Thursday, led by Lexie Meerstein with 20 points and Kiley Dhein with 11. The Clippers countered with Dasha Yeltysheva with a game-high 21 points.  Regan Kasten chipped in 10 points, Cady Carlson posted 8 points, and Yarrow Goettelman chipped in two points.

The Clippers return to the court on Friday for a non-conference game against Kohler. The Bombers fly in with a three-game winning streak, including a 54-44 victory over Random Lake on Thursday.  The JV game will be at 5:00 P.M.  Parent's Night recognition will follow the JV game prior to the start of varsity warm ups with the varsity game set to start approximately 6:30 P.M.  

Three Sturgeon Bay/Sevastopol wrestlers extended their season with top four finishes in the Denmark regional on Saturday.

Spencer Madsen cruised to a title at 157 pounds with a tech fall and two pins. Zak Wrobel split his matches to take third at 175 pounds while Ethan Denamur had similar luck at 190 pounds to take fourth.

The Sturgeon Bay Clippers girls basketball team saw a double-digit lead against the Gibraltar Vikings evaporate in the second half, but they were able to ward off the challenge to earn the 58-52 victory Thursday night in Fish Creek.

The Clippers regularly went to the charity stripe in the opening stanza, shooting 23 of 38 free throws in the first half. That, coupled with a five-minute scoring drought for the Vikings, allowed the Clippers to build up their advantage to over 15 points before Mikala Gorham started to whittle away at the lead, setting the stage for the excitement in the second half. Regan Kasten and Dasha Yeltysheva combined to score 21 points for the Clippers, taking a 33-19 advantage into the locker room. 

Gorham ensured the Vikings went down with a fight. She opened the second half with eight straight points to cut the lead to single digits. Celeste Jauregui and Bridget Tepe also came alive for the Vikings, combining to score 15 points in the second half. Jauregui's three-pointer with 4:38 left in the game made it a four-point game with the momentum on the side for the Vikings, but Cady Carlson's answer from downtown ensured the Clippers would stay afloat for the rest of the game. The Vikings would get no closer than two points as Kasten and Yeltysheva were able to secure the game from the line. 

The Clippers were led by Kasten's 21 points, with Yeltysheva adding 18 and Carlson chipping in 10. The Vikings were paced by Gorham's 21 points, while Jauregui contributed 10 and Anna Jarosh chipped in eight. 

The Clippers are back in action on Friday night to play Hilbert on Senior Night. The Hilltoppers are 1-19 on the season and are nursing a five-game losing streak after they beat Little Chute in late January. Tip off is set for 6:30 p.m.

The Sturgeon Bay Lady Clippers made the trip to Peshtigo Tuesday night and came up just a bit short, 57-51.  After trailing 25-22 at halftime, the Clippers rallied in the second half to take a four-point lead at one point.  However, costly turnovers and empty possessions weighed heavily as the Bulldogs stepped up and some hit big shots.

Jaycee Mullins led the Bulldogs with 15 points, and Audra Bauman added 10.  They had seven girls score between 2 and 8 points.

The Clippers were led by Dasha Yeltysheva with 25 points.  Regan Kasten had 18, and Yarrow Goettelman added 8.  

Sturgeon Bay plays at Gibraltar on Thursday and hosts Hilbert for Senior Night on Friday.

Sturgeon Bay/Sevastopol's three wrestlers all finished in the top three at Saturday's Green Bay Preble Tournament.

Izzy Andreae pinned her way to the title match before beating Arianna Niemojuski (Kewaunee) for 1st place at 152 pounds. Tiani LeMieux got her first action of the season, going 4-1 en route to a second-place finish at 145 pounds. Lanie Brauer posted four pins in five matches at 165 pounds.
