The Door County United swim team opens its 2026 campaign on the road Saturday morning when they travel to Marinette.

DCU had some notable departures from last year's team, but Shaeffer Rass and Hazel Monfils from last year's state qualifying 400m relay team could be among the returners. Quinn Sperber also threatened for a spot at the state meet for a DCU squad that placed fifth out of 14 teams with 175 points in the WIAA sectional meet at Ashwaubenon.

Clintonville, New London, Seymour, Shawano/Bonduel, and Wittenberg-Birnamwood are also making the trip to Marinette for the meet that begins at 9 a.m.

Sturgeon Bay's season started with a boom but the Clippers were unable to keep pace with Brillion, losing 41-6 in the season opener, as heard on U102.1. 

Rayshaune Johnson took the game's opening kickoff 85 yards for a touchdown, giving the Clippers an early 6-0 lead over the Lions.  Sturgeon Bay was unable to convert on the ensuing two point conversion attempt. From there though it was all Brillion. Weston Schmidt scored on the Lions first possession, and made the PAT kick.  Jaxon Lisowe scored on the Brillion's next time down, his first of 3 touchdowns in the game.  The play saw Rayshaune Johnson ejected from the game due to a high hit at the goal line, a controversial decision on a bang-bang play. Kyen Meyer scored on a quarterback keeper the next time the Lions had the ball, giving Brillion a 21-6 lead. The teams exchanged interceptions to end the first half.  

On the opening kickoff of the 2nd half, Jensen Kupsky returned the kick for a score, taking the return 85 yards to keep the gas pedal to the floor for Brillion.  Lisowe scored his 2nd and 3rd touchdowns of the evening to conclude the scoring.  Schmidt remained perfect on PAT kicks until the final attempt, missing the kick low.   The last half of the 4th quarter was played with running clock, but gave the Clippers plenty to build on.  

Sturgeon Bay will be back in action next Thursday, hosting Clintonville, which will be broadcasted on U-102.1 with Jacob Nate on the call.  

A new season kicks off on Thursday night for Sturgeon Bay, as the Clippers travel to Brillion, and it'll be heard on U102.1. 

2025 was tough for Sturgeon Bay, as the Clippers went 0-9 last fall. The team was young, with just 4 seniors on last year's squad.  Returning to the squad though, quarterback Trygg Stuth, their top two rushers in Shaun Estrada and Drew Propsom, and leading receiver Alex Estrada. Propsom also was the team's leading tackler. 

Brillion went 8-3 last year, including a 46-0 win over Sturgeon Bay in last year's opener.  Unlike the Clippers though, the Lions lost their statistical leader in each category, returning only 3 offensive starters and 2 on defense.  

Eric Fischer and Ramsay Thompson will have the call from Brillion, and it can be heard on U102.1 and NEWRadioSportsNetwork.com, with the pregame show at 6:45, and kickoff at 7:00pm.
