Sportsmanship Plus – Football

Kenosha Indian Trail @ Racine Case
Sept. 27, 2024

During a hard fought and emotional game, the left tackle for Indian Trail (#77), was consistently helping up players after the play, making sure they were good, regardless of what team they played for.   He played his heart out during the game, but pretty much every down, he was there helping up players from the pile and giving them pats or just a helping hand. Even near the end of the game with his team trailing, he was still helping people up after plays. It is players like this that need to be recognized for their special efforts in sportsmanship. I don't know if he played defense, but he was definitely a shining star where high school athletics sportsmanship is involved. Huge kudos to #77 for his efforts. It didn't go unnoticed.

Appleton West @ Green Bay Preble
Sept. 27, 2024

Player #78 from Appleton West was a voice of reason within his huddle, encouraging his teammates and getting them to settle down when things weren't going their way. He was obviously a vocal leader of the team and helped us keep things under control

Fort Atkinson @ Kenosha Tremper
Sept. 21, 2024

The Fort Atkinson boys volleyball team showed great sportsmanship. Before semifinal match, Coach Lindsey Hallett, Captain Ben Evans and the entire team came over and gave the officials handshakes. At the end of match, even after their  loss, again they came over and gave us a handshake and thanked us for giving our time to volleyball. Then they also went over to the table and thanked the JV boy and girl doing the table.

Black River Falls @ Gale-Etttick-Trempealeau
Sept. 20, 2024

My crew wants to compliment the coaching staffs of both G-E-T and Black River Falls. Both Head Coach Paul Anderson of G-E-T and Head Coach Adam Yirkovsky of Black River Falls and their coaching staff members maintained a very professional composure and approach when discussing rules applications, scenarios, and game administration needs throughout the game. The game was close, players played hard, and at any time emotions could have taken over. The head coaches of both teams worked with us and displayed a true approach to sportsmanship, being leaders of their respective districts leading their young men on the field as an extension of the classroom. It was a commendable effort for a job well done by both staffs.

Sportsmanship Plus - Boys Soccer

St. Croix Central @ Superior
Sept. 21, 2024

Nearing the end of a closely contested game, I made two decisions on the field which could easily have caused angst for the St. Croix Central bench. The St. Croix Central head coach, Jacob Langer, supported sportsmanship in the game by strongly keeping his bench settled in a way that also settled the fans. This went a long way to getting both teams to complete the game in a sporting manner. After the game Coach Langer and I also discussed my decisions in a respectful way. He expressed how the restart was confusing from his point of view. This polite interchange led me to consider how I might better have communicated what was happening.
