Friday, April 5, 2013 SPRING SPORTS PREVIEW PAGE 3

KEY NAMES:Abby Collins, senior, P:

Out of 148 innings of softball last season, Collins pitched in all but one. She was the team’s stud pitcher, finishing 13-9 with a 1.66 ERA, 87 strikeouts and 21 complete games (including two shutouts). When she wasn’t keeping Waseca in games from the mound, she hit .254 from the plate.

Alicia Knoll, senior, CF: Knoll hit .232 last season with six RBIs and a team-leading 12 walks. She also had five stolen bases last season.

GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN:

Samantha Barrie, SS: Bar-rie had a monster senior year: She hit .500 with a team-best 38 hits, 27 RBIs and a team-record 11 doubles. She homered three times on the year – tied for a team record – two of which came in the same game (also tied for a team record).

Jacie Hoehn, OF: Hoehn moved out of Waseca last year after putting together a stellar freshman season. She hit .347, the second-best average on the team, and had a team-best 13 stolen bases. She also scored a team-high 23 runs last season.

KEEP YOUR EYE ON:

Katie Tlusty, sophomore, DP: Tlusty was called up mid-way through the season and

gave the Bluejays a spark: In nine games as a freshman, she hit .391, including two dou-bles, a triple and six RBIs. She also scored four runs.

Katie Miller, senior, 1B: The athletic first basemen hit five doubles and a home run and knocked in 9 RBIs, third-most on the team, last season. She also led the team in strikeouts (28).

2013 OUTLOOK:With senior Abby Col-

lins returning to the mound, it’s no secret that pitching will be a strength for Waseca this season. Collins was the team’s workhorse last season, pitching 147 innings and finishing with a 1.66 ERA.

One issue Waseca faces is trying to fill the void of the players it lost last season. Sa-mantha Barrie graduated, Ja-cie Hoehn moved and Bailey Krueger isn’t playing this year. Together, those three were Waseca’s top offensive produc-ers, each hitting .343 or higher (Barrie hit .500) and combining for 45 of Waseca’s 79 RBIs last

season. Team speed will be a weakness, says first-year head coach

Doug Tramp, so Waseca will rely on bunting and timely hitting to produce runs. If the Bluejays can play solid defense, their pitching will help keep them in the game, he said.

Last year, Waseca made a late run through the postsea-son, picking up three Section 2AA South victories before los-ing back-to-back games to end the season. This year, they’ll look to gain experience with a tough non-conference schedule that includes Mankato Loyola, Kasson, Blooming Prairie, New Richland-Hartland-Ellendale-Geneva and Maple River. In the South Central Conference, New Ulm is the Class AA defending champions and St. Peter is com-ing off a 14-6 season.

FROM THE COACH: “If we play defense and can

get any kind of hitting, we should be in the top-three in conference and sections.” – Doug Tramp

FROM A PLAYER: “I’m really excited. I think

we’re going to have a good year.” – Abby Collins, senior

BY THE NUMBERS:1.66 – Senior Abby Collins’

ERA in 147 innings pitched last season

86 – Number of combined hits for Jacie Hoehn, Bailey Krueger and Samantha Barrie, who are gone from the team this season

Editor’s note: Statistics from last year’s Janesville-Waldorf-Pemberton softball team were not avail-able.

KEY NAMES:Kaley and Jacey Anderson, freshmen: �e Anderson twins, freshmen this year, could end up provid-

ing a spark for the Bulldogs this season a�er the team went 0-15 last year. �ey have a connection on the �eld, too: Kaley is a catcher and Jacey is a pitcher.

GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN:Salena Gahler: Gahler was a shortstop for the team last year.Haley Page: Page pitched for the Bulldogs last season.

KEEP YOUR EYE ON:Laura Trahms, sophomore, INF: Trahms has hit the ball well in practice so far this season and has a

strong arm, �rst-year head coach Mike Barten said. She’ll likely end up playing middle in�eld.Aneisah Kahn, freshman, 1B: Kahn is slated to play �rst base for the Bulldogs this season. She’s a

strong player who can hit the ball well, Barten said.

2013 OUTLOOK:So�ball at JWP has endured a rough stretch for awhile. �e Bulldogs, under head coach Jim McCullum,

went winless (0-15) last season, losing their �nal game, a Section 2A playo� matchup against Madelia/Truman, 9-8 in extra innings. �e year before that, JWP won only one game. Two seasons have passed since the Bulldogs were competitive, �nishing the 2010 season with a 9-10 record, and seven seasons have gone by since JWP had a winning record.

�is season, the Bulldogs have a new coach, Mike Barten, who hopes to turn some of those struggles around. On the basepaths, the Bulldogs will look to use their speed as an advantage. And on defense, Barten hopes the team will be fundamentally sound and not give teams many free passes.

�e �rst-year head coach also hopes JWP will be able to �nish in the middle of the Gopher Conference – in which Blooming Prairie, the Class A runner-up, is the team to beat – and is able “to win a couple of playo� games and make it to Caswell Park (in Mankato) for some section games.”

FROM THE COACH: “We are young … so the kids are going to have to learn on the �y and be mentally tough. Hopefully

we get used to the speed of the game right away, then things will come naturally, rather than to have to think about what to do.” – Mike Barten

FROM A PLAYER: “I think that we actually have a good shot at having some wins this year with having a good coach

who’s here coaching us and has a lot of high expectations and has faith in us. I think that we can pull through and have a pretty decent season, and we also have some talent. I think that we have a lot of high potential.” – Jenna Vogelsang, senior JWP’s Salena Gahler �res a throw to �rst base in 2012 during a 14-2 loss for the Bulldogs.

KEY NAMES:Jade Schultz, junior, P: Last

season, Schultz was NRHEG’s best player: The then-sopho-more hit a team-best .456 with 15 RBIs and finished with a 1.98 ERA in 131 innings from the mound. She’ll miss the entire season, though, as she damaged her ACL, MCL and meniscus during the Class AA Girls Bas-ketball Tournament in March.

Hannah Lundberg, junior, C: Lundberg is an All-Gopher Conference returner who earned the “Most Improved” honor as a sophomore last season. She hit .286 and played in 132 innings last season, tied for the most on the team.


Tori Raimann, SS: Raimann batted .377, second-best on the team, and had a .500 on-base percentage for the Panthers last season. The shortstop also earned All-Gopher Conference honors.

Anna Schlaak, 1B: Schlaak was another solid player for the Panthers, hitting .340 with nine RBIs her senior year. She also had five doubles, two triples and 11 runs during the season.

KEEP YOUR EYE ONAnna Stork, sophomore, IF:

As a freshman last season, Stork hit .268 with 10 RBIs to earn an all-conference honorable men-tion nod. Stork played 131 in-nings last season.

Tara Simon, senior, 3B: As a junior, Simon hit a solid .290 and knocked in 11 RBIs, second-most on the team. She was one of two Panthers to homer and was tied for fourth on the team with 18 hits.

2013 OUTLOOK:�e Panthers lost a big chunk

of their offensive and defensive production in graduating seniors

Tori Raimann, an all-conference player, Mandy Deml and Anna Sch-laak. With those three, last year’s NRHEG team went 16-4 and 7-3 in the Gopher Conference, behind conference champions Mankato

Loyola (21-2, 10-0 Gopher) and Blooming Prairie, the Class A runners-up.

NRHEG found out in mid-March that it’ll face another loss this season: Jade Schultz (.456 bat-

ting average, 16-4 pitching record) will be out for the season a�er she su�ered a knee injury in March in the Class AA Girls Basketball Tour-nament.

The Panthers do, however, return a solid core in Hannah Lundberg (.286 batting average), Tara Simon (.290) and Anna Stork (.268). Along with Schultz, Lund-berg was all-conference and Stork was an honorable mention last sea-son. A couple of younger pitchers will be called on to �ll the void on the mound, NRHEG coach Wendy Schultz said.

FROM THE COACH: “(�e expectations) have shi�-

ed, but I think it might be a little di�erent style of so�ball. We haven’t had to play too much defense really, a lot of times Jade would strike a lot of the batters out. ... It’s hard to say what’s going to happen with the situation but our defense is going to have tighten up and o�ensively we’re going to have to be aggressive, and on the bases, too.” – Wendy Schultz

FROM A PLAYER: “I expect us to do really well and

play well, but without Jade it might be a little di�cult and more chal-lenging. But I still have high hopes for our team.” – Hannah Lundberg, junior

BY THE NUMBERS:1.98 – Jade Schultz’s ERA last

year.307 – NRHEG’s team batting

average last season

KEY NAMESBrittany Buesgens, senior, P – �e team leader in

at-bats, times on base, steals and runs (her 21 were second in the Faribault-area), Buesgens, a senior, was also one of the area’s top pitchers, �nishing 8-11 with a 2.67 ERA and 100 strikeouts in 120 2/3 innings. She was voted the team MVP.

Briana Adank, senior, C – Adank, a senior, was fourth on the team in on-base percentage last year at .424 thanks to a team-high 14 walks. She hit just .176 but when she got on she was dangerous, �nishing with nine steals (tied for ��h in the area) and 11 walks.

GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTENLindsay Ayers, OF – Ayers led the Buccaneers last

year with a .382 average while patrolling center �eld and hitting eight doubles and knocking in 15 runs. She added 10 steals.

Emily Meskan, C – Meskan was WEM’s second leading hitter with a .367 average and was second on the team with 13 RBIs. Her .516 on-base percentage was a team-high and she committed just three errors all season and won the team’s Gold Glove award.

UP AND COMINGMackenzie Taylor, senior, 3B – Taylor, a senior,

missed last season due to an ankle injury su�ered dur-ing her junior basketball season, but she’ll be back and taking over the hot corner for Adank, who is moving to catcher. A strong arm and aggressiveness in the batter’s box should be her strong suits.

Leta Spore, senior, CF – Spore, a senior, will take over for Ayers in center �eld and brings a strong arm and a bat that’s been looking good thus far this spring. While she went 0-for-9 in limited action last year, her quickness and leadership will be vital for the Bucs this spring.

OUTLOOKWith eight seniors in the starting lineup and a four-

year starter on the rubber, this is the season Waterville-Elysian-Morristown so�ball has been planning for. Now if only the o�ense will comply.

�e Buccaneers, coming o� an 8-12 record and 4-6 mark in conference in 2012, enter the 2013 season with a strong defensive squad and Brittany Buesgens – she of the 2.67 ERA last spring – as their starter. �e only question is the o�ense, which lost its top three hitters in Lindsay Ayers, Emily Meskan and Ashley Sanderson.

Moving into the lineup will be seniors Leta Spore, Mackenzie Taylor, junior right �elder Olivia Nusbaum and sophomore pitcher/catcher/in�elder Taylor Larson, who is the Bucs’ second pitcher, a position with more

importance this season due to the weather forcing teams into a condensed season.

While Blooming Prairie is the team to beat in the Gopher Conference, NRHEG’s loss of star pitcher Jade Schultz opens up the runner-up spot, which could come down to a battle between the Bucs and Randolph. In Sec-tion 1A West, the Bucs will have to contend with the Blos-soms and Rockets again, as well as Kenyon-Wanamingo (with its own star pitcher Kailee Berquam) and Hay�eld.

FROM THE COACH: “I’m pretty excited about our defense and it’s all about

our o�ense. �at’s what was down last year so we’ll see if we can pick that up.” – Dan Lemcke

FROM A PLAYER: “We are working very hard right now during the

weeks before our �rst game, and I believe it will show throughout our season.” – Mackenzie Taylor, senior

KEY NAMES:Erik Balfe, senior, C/P: Balfe was Waseca’s best hitter last season,

�nishing with a solid .333 average, smacking six doubles and knocking in six runs. He was tied for a team-high 20 hits. �is year, he’ll be a senior leader converting to catcher and pitching more o�en.

Nick Paczkowski, senior, P/1B: Paczkowski is another returner who will look to make an impact this season. He �nished with a 6.37 ERA in 18 2/3 innings pitched and will look to improve on his .156 batting average from last season.

GONE BUT NOT FORGETTON:Zach Hiller: Hiller was one of the team’s workhorse pitchers and

senior leaders last year. He �nished with a 3.97 ERA in 37 innings from the mound and struck out 39 hitters, the second-best total on the team.

Kevin Glynn: Glynn �nished with the second-best batting aver-age on the team (.278), behind Balfe’s .330 average, and was tied with Balfe for a team-high 20 hits. Glynn also scored a team-best nine runs last season.

KEEP YOUR EYE ON:Colby Sylvester, sophomore, 3B/P: Sylvester will have chances

to contribute from the plate, mound and �eld in his �rst season on varsity. Coach Ryan Krautkremer said Sylvester is a strong player who can hit the ball well. �e Bluejays will need his contributions this season, he said.

Austin Stroda, senior, CF: Stroda is one of three seniors on the young Bluejays team who’s looking to make an impact another year. Last season he hit .186 and smacked two doubles. He also had four stolen bases, putting him in a four-way tie for the team lead.

2013 OUTLOOK:Don’t expect to see many familiar faces when the Waseca Blue-

jays run out onto Tink Larson Field in their home opener this year. �e Bluejays lost nine seniors to graduation – including top pitchers

Zach Hiller, Brandon Sutlief and Jordan Ste�ens, and shortstop Kevin Glynn, who hit .278 – from last year’s 4-17 team.

Waseca only has three returners this year in seniors Erik Balfe (.333 batting average last season), Nick Paczkowski (6.37 ERA) and Austin Stroda (.186 average), who each played in at least 20 games last season. Waseca’s new faces will include a crop of sophomores led by Colby Sylvester and Cody Ulfers, who each will start in the in�eld at the beginning of the season, Waseca coach Ryan Krautkremer said,

as well as new shortstop Brett Wickersheim.Fairmont and New Ulm, which each �nished 9-1 in the South

Central Conference last season, are the favorites to win the confer-ence in 2013. �e Bluejays, who haven’t had a winning season since 2008, hope to �nish in the middle of the conference standings this year. �ey had a 3-7 conference record last season and lost to New Richland-Hartland-Ellendale-Geneva 8-0 in the opening round of the Section 2AA South playo�s.

Krautkremer expects the team’s style of play to be centered on solid defense and small ball. Hitting is still a question mark, he said.

FROM THE COACH: “We’re going to be real young, so anything can happen. I think we’ll

be much better defensively than we’ve been in years past.” – Ryan Kraut-kremer

FROM A PLAYER: “Well we have a really young team, only a couple returning starters but

a lot of us have put in a lot of work this o�season so I’m really looking for-ward to what we can get accomplished. As long as we stay healthy and keep our heads in it I think we’ll have a really good year.” – Erik Balfe, senior.

WASECA BASEBALL


KEY NAMES:Sawyer Gahler, junior,

P/SS: Gahler was the Bull-dogs’ go-to player last year, spurring the team to a five-win season, the most wins in recent history. The then-sophomore finished with a team-best .356 average and .442 on-base percentage in 17 games, striking out only four times. He was also the team’s best pitcher, throwing 57 innings and holding op-posing hitters to a .216 bat-ting average while collecting 48 strikeouts.

Kyle Fisel, junior, SS/P: Fisel was one of the Bulldogs’ top starters last season, hit-ting .320 in 50 at-bats. He smacked 16 hits last season, including three doubles, and finished with five RBIs. Fisel also pitched the second-most innings on the team (15 2/3 innings), striking out 12 and collecting a 7.15 ERA.


Brandon Janike, 1B/P: The loss of Janike, the team’s lone senior last season, will be a void that needs to be filled for the Bulldogs. He hit .333 in 16 games and knocked in six RBIs. Janike also pitched in four games (9 1/3 innings), not allowing an earned run while fanning 10 batters.

KEEP YOUR EYE ON:Tyler Cowdin, senior, 3B: Cowdin returns to the Bulldogs after a solid season at the plate: He

hit .283 last season in 15 games and knocked in five RBIs. He also had three stolen bases for the Bulldogs, which stole 21 times last season, and struck out only six times.

Zach Janike, sophomore, OF: Janike hit .265 with four doubles and a couple of RBIs in 13 games as a freshman last season. His batting average was fifth best on the team.

2013 OUTLOOK:Entering the 2012 season, the Bulldogs had won eight games

combined in the previous five seasons. So, last year’s 5-12 (2-9 Gopher Conference) record was a major improvement from the team’s rough stretch in the previous half-decade, despite a season-ending loss to Waterville-Elysian-Morristown in the Section 2A opener.

Now, with a crop of familiar faces returning, the Bulldogs look to build on last year’s season. The team lost Brandon Janike – the lone senior on last year’s team – and will need to fill his void,

but the Bulldogs return the team’s statistical leader, Saw-yer Gahler, and are buttressed by junior Kyle Fisel entering the season.

The focus this season will be on improved defense, JWP coach Howard Van Otterloo said – an aspect of the game that escaped the Bulldogs at times and cost them unearned runs last season. With the majority of JWP’s returners back, Van Otterloo is hoping the players will show more maturity at the plate. One thing that bodes well for the Bulldogs: They’re returning all of their starting pitchers from last year’s team.

FROM THE COACH:

“I think we will be much stronger defensively. I also believe our pitching will be much improved. Going into the season our hitting is a concern. Again we are hoping that the extra year of matu-rity will help improve that as well.” – Howard Van Otterloo

FROM A PLAYER:“Well we have two-a-days

(now) so we’re taking it more serious ... than we have in the past years. I’m hoping we get double digit wins this year.” –

Sawyer Gahler, junior

KEY NAMES:Nic Mangskau, senior, OF/P:

Mangskau played in all 22 games last season. He threw 40 innings and had a 3.50 ERA from the mound as a junior. He’ll be one of the more experienced seniors returning to the lineup.

Brad Claycomb, senior, OF: Claycomb returns for his senior season after hitting .333 in 16 games last season. As a junior, he stole seven bases and didn’t commit an error.

Casey Rosacker, senior, 3B/P: �e senior batted .353 in the 15 games he played in last season. He, too, will be one of the more experienced players returning to the lineup.


Sam Lundberg, P/OF: Lun-dberg, a senior last season, was the team stud: He hit .432 in 21 games while leading the Pan-thers in runs scored (25) and hits (32) and had a �elding average of .988. In the eight games he pitched, he went 6-0 with a 3.53 ERA. Those numbers earned him all-conference honors and a spot in the Lions All-Star Game.

Mitch Akemann, P/OF: Ake-mann hit .386 and knocked in 20 RBIs in 22 games as a senior last season. In nine games on the mound, he went 5-2 with a 2.76 ERA. He also was named all-conference.

KEEP YOUR EYE ON:

Sam Jewett, senior, C: Jew-ett played in only six games last season, but he made the most of his time: He hit .667 at the plate and didn’t commit a single error during the season.

Johnny White, senior, OF: White was injured last season, but NRHEG coach Jeff Re-ese said White put together a good season when he played American Legion baseball last summer.

2013 OUTLOOK:

The list of players NRHEG lost to graduation last year is pretty daunting. Of the nine se-niors, five were all-conference players – Mitch Akemann, Matt Dahle, Dave Lassahn, Sam Lun-dberg and Jake Staloch – and two earned all-conference honorable mentions – Lucas Meyer and Ty-ler Sorenson. �ose players pro-vided the bulk of the team’s suc-cess last season, which included a Gopher Conference champion-ship and an 18-4 record.

With this year’s less experi-enced roster, longtime NRHEG coach Jeff Reese expects some growing pains, he said. �e Pan-thers plan to emphasize pitching and defense in the beginning of the season while searching for the right players at each posi-tion. Reese also expects several sophomores will get good looks at varsity time.

The Panthers may not have the same type of experience as

last season, but they will have a few experienced returners, such as seniors Nic Mangskau and Casey Rosacker.

A Faribault Daily News Go-pher Conference preseason poll slates Faribault Academies as a conference favorite, with NRHEG in the middle of the pack. Last year, the Panthers

lost in the second round of the Section 2AA playoffs to St. Peter after beating Waseca 8-0 in the opening round.

FROM THE COACH: “The cupboard isn’t bare as

we have some talent coming back and coming up through the

younger ranks. We won’t have that important experience and mental toughness that makes a good team great but will im-prove on that as the season pro-gresses.” – Jeff Reese

but the Bulldogs return the team’s statistical leader, Saw-yer Gahler, and are buttressed by junior Kyle Fisel entering the season.

The focus this season will be on improved defense, JWP coach Howard Van Otterloo said – an aspect of the game that escaped the Bulldogs at times and cost them unearned runs last season. With the majority of JWP’s returners back, Van Otterloo is hoping the players will show more maturity at the plate. One thing that bodes well for the Bulldogs: They’re returning all of their starting pitchers from last year’s team.

FROM THE COACH:

“I think we will be much stronger defensively. I also believe our pitching will be much improved. Going into the season our hitting is a concern. Again we are hoping that the extra year of matu-rity will help improve that as well.” – Howard Van Otterloo

FROM A PLAYER:“Well we have two-a-days

(now) so we’re taking it more serious ... than we have in the past years. I’m hoping we get double digit wins this year.” –

KEY NAMESNolan Grose, senior, 1B – �e Buc-

caneers’ star �rst baseman was the team leader in RBIs with 23 (fourth in the area) and added 15 runs and eight steals while playing solid defense. �e coach’s son, he’s one of three returning All-Conference players.

Brady Ayers, senior, OF – A Farib-ault Daily News All-Area team honorable mention selection last year, Ayers was the second-leading hitter in the area and the team leader at .414. He added 10 RBIs, four doubles and 15 runs scored.

GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN

Brady Hruska, 2B – Certainly the saddest circumstances in these pages, Hruska led the area in steals (16) and hit .296 with 20 runs while walking 15 times as the Buccaneers’ leado� hitter last year. He drowned tragically in a boating ac-cident in the fall.

Tate Harmon and Cody Reinke, P – �e senior duo pitched 81 of the Bucs’ 148 innings last year and went a combined 11-2 with a cumulative ERA of 1.30. Har-mon alone went 7-1 with a 1.28 ERA and 54 strikeouts and was the only senior to make the Faribault Daily News’ All-Area team rotation.

KEEP YOUR EYE ONDerek Masberg, senior, SP – Masberg,

a senior, has logged the most innings of any returning Bucs pitcher, with 30 1/3. His 3.00 ERA trailed only graduated se-niors Tate Harmon and Cody Reinke and he added 29 strikeouts against only seven walks.

Ben Boran, sophomore, SS – �e only freshman to be named to the Gopher Con-ference All-Conference honorable men-tion list last year, Boran shared the Bucs’ Gold Glove award with Hruska last year. He hit .369 with 10 RBIs and shared the team lead with four doubles and �ve extra-base hits.

2013 OUTLOOK�e Waterville-Elysian-Morristown

baseball team’s hopes this season swing on one vital position: Pitching.

The Bucs bring back seven of their nine position starters but lost more than 61 percent of their innings from a 2012 squad that went 15-7 overall and 9-3 in the Gopher Conference, good enough to

tie for third. Most of those innings were pitched by graduated seniors Tate Harmon and Cody Reinke, and the Bucs and coach Joe Grose are still looking for a source of those innings.

Derek Masberg will be the defacto ace, while the rest of the rotation will be �lled out by some combination of Nolan Grose, Landon Harmon, Luke Nu-etzman, Tre Mesagna and Tyson Ranslow . “That’s going to be decided on which can throw strikes,” Joe Grose said.

�e two positions that will have new players will be second base, which will be a battle between Rans-low and Brady Watzek, and one out�eld spot (the other two will be �lled with Brady Ayers in center and Landon Harmon in a cor-ner spot), which will go to

either Mesagna or Colin Ayers.�e Bucs should be in a battle with

Faribault Academies and United South Central atop the Gopher Conference, while Section 2A is predicted to come down to BOLD, Mankato Loyola (which was second in the Gopher last year before leaving for the Valley Conference), USC

and WEM.

FROM THE COACH: “(Pitching) will be our main thing

and especially with a condensed sched-ule. I suspect everybody is going to be in the same boat. If we play to the top that

we can, we’ll be a very good team.” – Joe Grose

FROM A CAPTAIN: “Pitching will be our weakness but I

feel we have a veteran team who can hit and play small ball.” – Nolan Grose, senior

KEY NAMES:Sally O’Brien, sophomore,

distance runner: O’Brien, an all-state and all-conference selection from last season, re-turns to a stronger girls team as one of the top point-getters from last year. O’Brien also was one of Waseca’s top cross country runners, which took fourth place in state last fall and at one point was ranked �rst in Class A.

Sadie Klug, junior, dis-tance runner: Klug, who also earned all-state and all-con-ference honors last season, is another one of Waseca’s top returning scorers. Along with O’Brien, Andee Erickson and Aubrey Highum, Klug was part of Waseca’s 4-by-800-meter relay team that took fourth in Class A last year.


Sarah Trickey: Trickey, who graduated last year, was an all-conference hurdler and Waseca’s top point-getter last season.

Paige Bartelt: Bartelt , along with graduated se-niors Keari Harris and Kari Simmons, earned All-South Central Conference honors last year, too, as a sprinter.

KEEP YOUR EYE ON:Aubrey Highum, freshman, distance runner: Along with Klug and O’Brien, Highum returns for

her freshman year as one of Waseca’s three top scorers. She also was named all-state and All-South Central Conference as an eighth-grader.

Andee Erickson, junior, distance runner: Erickson is the fourth runner on the 4-by-800-meter relay team, and she, too, earned all-state and all-conference honors last season. With all four girls returning, the future is promising for Waseca’s 4-by-800-meter relay team.

2013 OUTLOOK:�e loss of four All-South Central Conference athletes – Sarah

Trickey (hurdles), Paige Bartelt (sprints), Keari Harris (sprints) and Kari Simmons (throws) – won’t be easy to make up, but Wase-ca is excited about the prospect of the future. Waseca returns some of last year’s top runners in Sadie Klug, Sally O’Brien and Aubrey Highum. Furthermore, the Bluejays have a boatload of returning letterwinners (16), including Mackenzie Burke (all-conference distance runner) and Carlee Diedrich (2010 state participant).

Waseca coach Dave Abel expects the team to be better than last year’s squad, which finished fourth in the South Central

Conference, second in the sub-section and 10th at the Sec-tion 2A Meet. This year, the Bluejays set a goal of “pushing the teams in our conference for the title” as well as winning the sub-section and �nishing top-five at the section meet, Abel said.

The team sent its 4-by-800-meter relay team of Klug, O’Brien, Highum and Erick-son to the Class A Meet last season, where it took fourth. �is year, Waseca’s expected to be strong in the distance events and improved in the sprints, jumps and throwing events, Abel said.

FROM THE COACH:

“The girls should be bet-ter than last year, and we are excited about this group. We believe they can push the teams in the conference.” – Dave Abel

FROM A PLAYER: “I’m hoping that our 4-by-

800 team will be back and hopefully make a state ap-pearance again, that would be pretty cool. I also hope that

everyone in track will have a great season and just enjoy it.” – Sadie Klug, junior

BY THE NUMBERS:4 – All-state athletes returning from last year16 – Letterwinners returning to the team

SEASON UPDATE: Waseca took second at an indoor triangular April 1.

GOOD LUCK AREA ATHLETES!


KEY NAMES:Brock Kolander, senior,

sprinter: Kolander was a big part of last year’s state champion Wase-ca boys team – the then-junior was part of a 4-by-100-meter relay team that won a state champion-ship and was on a 4-by-200-meter relay team that �nished second in Class A. Last year, he earned all-state and all-conference honors.

Shane Streich, sophomore, distance runner: Streich was an-other reason the boys team won a state title. As a freshman, Streich �nished second at state in both the boys 800-meter and 1600-me-ter runs and then anchored Wase-ca’s 4-by-400-meter relay team. A top cross country runner, the all-state, all-conference sophomore is one of Waseca’s top talents.


Yves Spies: Spies capped a stel-lar senior season in the high jump by leaping 6-7 and winning a Class A title in the event – another big reason why the boys team won its �rst state championship.

Wolfgang Dvorak: Dvorak, also an all-state and all-conference runner last season, was part of the state title winning 4-by-100-meter relay team and the second-place 4-by-200-meter team.

KEEP YOUR EYE ON:Dylan Hermanstorfer, sopho-

more, sprinter: Hermanstorfer, a freshman last season, anchored Waseca’s state champion 4-by-100-meter relay team and edged Concordia Academy-Roseville’s Ryan Donahue at the �nish line to cap the team’s victory. He’s back for another year after he, too, earned all-state and all-con-ference honors last season.

Jesse Delgado, freshm, dis-tance runner: Delgado, who was one of Waseca’s top cross country runners in the fall, was All-South Central Conference as a freshman last season and will look to make an impact again this year.

2013 OUTLOOK:

After winning its first state title in school history and its �rst conference championship in 41 years, Waseca’s boys track and �eld team lost a group of seniors that included two state cham-pions (Wolfgang Dvorak and Yves Spies), two all-state athletes (Dvorak and Spies), �ve all-con-ference athletes (Dvorak, Spies, Jacob Sass, Jared Krassin and Sha-quille Harvey) and the team’s top point scorer (Harvey).

Filling those voids won’t be an easy task. Fortunately for Waseca, several pieces to the puzzle are returning for another season. Shane Streich, Brock Ko-lander and Dylan Hermanstorfer, all-state athletes who played key roles in Waseca’s boys team title last season, are back for another year. Coupled with all-conference selections Jesse Delgado, Cole Streich and Tyler Kolander, and

several other returners, Waseca is looking to repeat last year’s suc-cess.

�e goals: Win the South Cen-tral Conference crown (again), win the sub-section (again), �nish top-three at the Section 2A Meet (again) and advance the same in-dividuals and relays to the Class A

Meet at Hamline University.

FROM THE COACH: “We lost a ton to graduation

so we will need to �ll those holes. I see us improving in those areas over the season but we are not there yet.” – Dave Abel.

FROM A PLAYER: “I would also like to see our

team go for another state title and see as many Waseca track athletes be able to make it to state as possi-ble.” – Shane Streich, sophomore.

BY THE NUMBERS:3 – Returners from last year’s

state champion boys team1 – Boys team title in Waseca

history, which was won last year

SEASON UPDATE: Waseca won an indoor triangular April 1.

BOYS KEY NAMES:Ian Jewison, junior: Jewison

has gotten o� to a hot start for the Bulldogs, which opened the season on March 23. �e junior sprinter won the 400-meter dash in the team’s season opening indoor meet and has been in on a few second- and third-place �nishes as one of JWP’s top sprinters.

Billy Steinhauer, senior: Stein-hauer, one of two seniors on the team, is another sprinter whom JWP coach Merle Sveen expects to lead the Bulldogs this season. Stein-hauer has taken part in a couple re-lay teams that have �nished near the top of the leaderboard in JWP’s �rst two indoor meets, and he took fourth place in the triple jump on March 26.


Jordan Vogelsang: Vogelsang competed in the shot put and dis-cus for the Bulldogs last season.

James Volkmann: Volkmann was a distance runner for last year’s JWP squad.

KEEP YOUR EYE ON:Trevor West, freshman: West

has made an impact in JWP’s �rst two meets this season – he recently took second place in the 55-meter low hurdles and the 55-meter high hurdles at an indoor meet at Min-nesota State University, Mankato.

Kelton Lynch, sophomore: Sveen called Lynch “one of our real bright spots.” �e sophomore sprinter has been on a couple relay

teams that have found success in the early going this season.

2013 OUTLOOK:Entering this season with a

young boys squad that boasts only two seniors, Janesville-Waldorf-Pemberton coach Merle Sveen thinks the Bulldogs will likely �n-ish in the bottom half of the Go-pher Conference. He also knows there are some individuals on the team who can compete with the conference competition.

A�er losing four athletes from last year’s squad, JWP returns Ian Jewison, who competed at the Section 2A Meet last season in the 400-meter dash, and Trevor West, who ran the 300-meter hurdles at sections last season as an eighth grader. Billy Steinhauer, a sprinter and triple-jumper, also returns to make an impact his senior season.

�e Bulldogs will be strong in

the triple jump and hurdles this season, Sveen said, and will be “OK” in the distance events. He expects the hard-working team to make signi�cant strides through-out the year.

FROM THE COACH: “We’re young. We have two se-

niors, two juniors, but we do have some quality there.” – Merle Sveen

FROM A PLAYER: “We’re real young, so just get

better. Try to get them in the mood to want to run, so that when they’re older, they’re better. – Billy Stein-hauer, senior

SEASON UPDATE: JWP’s boys team has taken fifth out of seven and fourth out of six in its �rst two indoor meets in Mankato. �e girls team took sixth in both of its �rst two indoor meets.

BY THE NUMBERS:3 – Returners from last year’s

state champion boys team1 – Boys team title in Waseca

history, which was won last year

SEASON UPDATE: Waseca won an indoor triangular April 1.

JWP TRACK AND FIELD

GIRLS KEY NAMES:Callie Morton, junior, jumps,

sprints: Morton has quickly estab-lished herself as one of JWP’s top returners this season. In JWP’s two early season indoor meets, Morton has taken third in the triple jump twice, finished third in the long jump once and has been a part of a 4-by-200-meter relay team that took second place.


Sara Schumacher: Schumacher is the school’s record holder in the discus and earned “Most Valuable Field Event” winner on last year’s team. She also competed in the shot

put.Kayla Sveen: Sveen’s void

will be hard to replace – she led the team in scoring, was named All-Gopher Conference and was a section quali�er as a short dis-tance runner. She’s running track at Dakota State University this year.

KEEP YOUR EYE ON:Hannah Olson, freshman,

sprinter: Olson is one of seven returning starters looking to make an impact this season. �e fresh-

man took third place in the 200-me-ter dash in JWP’s most recent indoor meet at Minnesota State University, Mankato.

2013 OUTLOOK:This year’s Bulldogs squad is

small and young – the team has 14 athletes, including one senior and four juniors, on the roster. Also working against the Bulldogs are the absences of Sara Schumacher, the school’s record holder in the discus, and Kayla Sveen, an all-conference sprinter who led the team in scoring last season.

However, in JWP’s first two meets, which have been indoor at Minnesota State University, Manka-to, the Bulldogs have found glimpses of success in junior Callie Morton, who’s been a part of three third-place �nishes (two in triple jump, one in long jump) and a second-place �nish on JWP’s 4-by-200-meter relay team.

JWP also has six other returning starters in freshmen Hannah Olson and Gabbie Hagen, sophomore Courtney Losee, juniors Brittany Anderson and Lynsey Guse, and lone senior Allison Roberts. The strengths of the team are yet to be determined, JWP coach Brad Willett said, and the team’s apparent weak-nesses are its youth and low num-bers. Willett expects the team to �n-

ish lower in the conference rankings this season because the team tallies only 14 athletes.

�e Bulldogs �nished in seventh place – last place – at the Section 2A Sub-section 5 Track and Field Championships last season.

FROM A COACH: “�ere may be some other sur-

prises to watch for (in athletes this season). We will have to see what develops.” – Brad Willett

FROM A PLAYER: “All of (my teammates) are re-

ally young, but they’re all getting the hang of it, too.” – Callie Morton, junior.

NRHEG GIRLS TRACK AND FIELDKEY NAMES:

Carlie Wagner, junior, sprints, high jump: Wagner, known mainly for her talent on the basketball court, has some skills in track and �eld, too. �e junior is Class A’s returning high jump champion after jumping 5-06 to beat Caledonia/Spring Grove’s Emma Lange last June at Hamline University. She’ll look to defend her title this season.

Mikayla Lindell, senior, throws: Lindell enters her se-nior season looking to bolster a strong group of throwers. She also knows her track and �eld ca-reer will continue: She accepted a scholarship to throw for Winona State University’s track and �eld program a�er she graduates this year.


Danielle Krueger: Krueger competed on the girls 4-by-200-meter relay team at the Sec-tion 2A Track and Field Champi-onships last season, which took fifth out of eight teams with a 1:49.74. She also ran the 4-by-100-meter relay and the 400-me-ter dash for the Panthers.

KEEP YOUR EYE ON:

Katharine Lewer, freshman, distance: Lewer is a returning starter from last season, and she has the talent to make an impact in the distance events: As a cross country runner last fall, Lewer earned All-Gopher Conference honors.

2013 OUTLOOK:Last year, Carlie Wagner head-

lined the NRHEG girls track and field season by winning a state title in the high jump, something that NRHEG coach Duey Ferber said, in an interview with the Owatonna People’s Press, was the school’s �rst girls state title in his more than two decades as a head coach. Wagner was the Panthers’ lone state participant last season.

A�er losing only one senior,

Danielle Krueger, the Panthers have several experienced return-ers from last year’s team, which finished second in the Gopher Conference and fourth in Sec-tion 2A Sub-section 5. United South Central/Alden-Conger is expected to be one of the stron-gest teams in the conference and the sub-section, but the Panthers would like to compete with the Rebels in both of those categories this season.

Along with high jump, the Panthers are expected to be strong in sprints, relays and throws this season, Ferber said. With a mix-ture of youth and experience, NRHEG also will look for some younger athletes to step up this season.

FROM THE COACH:

“We look to have a good sea-son. We have a lot of girls who like to work hard and try to im-prove every day. We want to do our best every time we step on the track. We would like to qualify a bus load to the section meet, and

hopefully get a few to the state meet.” – Duey Ferber

FROM A PLAYER: “I really hope we can try to

win conference. It’s going to be

tough against USC. … I just hope we all succeed individually and as a team.” – Mikayla Lindell, senior

BY THE NUMBERS:1 – Senior lost from last year’s

team1 – State champion returning

from last year’s team

SEASON UPDATE: NRHEG’s girls team took fourth at a �ve-team indoor meet March 23 in Mankato.

KEY NAMES:TJ Schiltz, junior: Schiltz is back as NRHEG’s best long distance runner

a�er being the lone athlete on the Panthers boys team to earn a state berth last season (He also went to state in cross country last fall). Schiltz placed 14th in the 3200-meter run at state and will look to get back to Hamline University another year.

Ross Chester, junior: Chester, one of seven returning starters from last season, is looking to push the limits of NRHEG’s long jump record: Panthers coach Duey Ferber said Chester’s on a mission to set a new school record

in the event. At the section meet last season, Chester took eighth with a jump of 19-0.25.

GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN:Geo� Ramaker: Ramaker, a senior sprinter last season, competed in

the 100-meter dash and the 4-by-200-meter relay at the Section 2A Track and Field Championships last year.

Tyler Holtz: Holtz was another section participant for the Panthers, �nishing in a �ve-way tie for 10th place in the pole vault at the Section 2A meet last year.

KEEP YOUR EYES ON:Keith Maxon, Todd Erickson, Kevin Kalis and Nick Goette: �is

quartet of throwers has a lot of potential in the shot put and discus this

season, Ferber said. Maxon, Erickson and Kalis, all sophomores, are return-ing starters from last season. Goette is a junior.

2013 OUTLOOK:NRHEG �nished sixth in the Gopher Conference and ��h in Sub-

section 5A last season. With a young, small team this season, NRHEG coach Duey Ferber says the Panthers hope to �nish somewhere in the middle of the conference and the sub-section.

The Panthers will have some upside, though, starting with their seven returning starters.

First o�, TJ Schiltz, the team’s lone state participant last season and top distance runner, is back for another year and is expected to have a good season in the 1600- and 3200-meter runs. Distance running will be one of the team’s strengths this year, Ferber said. �e Panthers also expect to be strong in shot put and discus this season, with return-ing starters Keith Maxon, Todd Erickson and Kevin Kalis, as well as with Nick Goette. Junior Ross Chester also is looking to boost his results in the long jump.

FROM THE COACH: “We hope some underclassmen

step up and �nd events that they want to push themselves in. We will be focusing more on the individual side of track this year, knowing that team scores will have us �nishing in the middle of the pack.” – Duey Ferber

FROM A PLAYER: “We do have a lot of good tal-

ent coming back. We have Ross (Chester), who’s going for the the school record in the long jump and everything. I’d say a good goal for us would be top third in the confer-

ence, top half in the subsection.” – TJ Schiltz, junior

WEM TRACK AND FIELDKEY NAMES

Tierney Winter, freshman, distance runner – Winter, a freshman, went to state the last two years and was fifth in Class A in the 1600-meter run in 2012 after a ninth-place fin-ish in 2011. Winter was about 18 seconds behind state cham-pion Clare Flanagan of Blake School. Winter also won a sub-section championship in the triple jump.

Lily Anderson, freshman, sprinter – Anderson, also a freshman, won the 100- and 200-meter sprints in the Sec-tion 2A Sub-section 5 meet last spring. Anderson went on to finish third in Section 2A in both the 100 and 200, missing a trip to state by one spot in each.


Lindsay Ayers, jumper – Ayers graduated after taking third in the sub-section in the long jump and third in the tri-ple jump as one of just three WEM tracksters to advance to the section meet in multiple individual events. She finished 10th in the long jump and 13th in the triple jump at sections.

Zach Erdmann, sprinter – Erdmann ran the opening leg for the WEM boys 4-by-100-meter relay team, which finished third in the Gopher Conference.

KEEP YOUR EYE ONErik Keller, senior, sprinter – Keller, a senior, scored 20 of

WEM’s 46 points at last year’s sub-section meet by finishing sec-ond in the 100 (12.16 seconds) and the 200 (24.93). Keller was fourth in the section in the 200 and seventh in the 100. Keller was also a part of the 4-by-100-meter relay team that finished third in the conference.

Samantha Petry, eigth-grader, pole vaulter – Petry, an eighth grader, was third in the pole vault in last year’s sub-section meet and was the youngest of eight Buccaneers to advance to the sec-tion meet. She finished 11th at sections after clearing 7 feet, 8 inches. Six of the 10 vaulters ahead of her were seniors.

OUTLOOKWhen you start looking at the Waterville-Elysian-Morristown

girls track and field team’s roster, there’s quite a few who can’t even drive themselves to school.

The Bucs girls are coming off a strong season where they finished third in the Gopher Conference, third in Section 2A Sub-section 5 and 12th out of 24 teams in Section 2A. Then you

realize that Lindsay Ayers was the only senior among the six girls to advance to the section meet and the remainder were seventh-graders (Samantha Petry), eighth-graders (Tierney Winter and Lily Anderson) and freshmen (Brooke Galler and Jacqueline Kaplan) and you get an idea what WEM can do this season.

The Bucs lost just three seniors from last year (Haley Lhotka, Sofia Witt and Ayers) and have Winter coming off two straight trips to the Class A State Meet. United South Central and NRHEG are the front-runners in the confer-ence now that defending cham-pion Mankato Loyola/Cleve-land has moved to the Valley Conference.

On the boys side, the Bucs have nowhere to go but up af-ter finishing last in the Gopher Conference in 2011 and last in Section 2A Sub-section 5. They were 19th out of 23 teams at sections, but only two boys made it out of sub-sections (Erik Keller and Tucker Kin-niry). Other key returners are Nick Kaplan, Jake Wolf, Parker Parsons, Patrick Ely and Aaron Zimmer.

As is the case with the girls, USC/Alden Conger (last year’s champ) and NRHEG are the teams to beat.

FROM A COACH: “The coaches’ goals are to help each athlete improve their

speed, strength and endurance and get better at their events.” – Craig Hauer, girls track and �eld coach

NRHEG GIRLS AND BOYS GOLF

NRHEG’s Sam Grothem was one of last year’s key seniors. The Panthers now have a crop of returners looking to �ll the void of Grothem and other graduates this season. (People’s Press �le photo)

BOYS KEY NAMES:Jake Langlie, sophomore:

Langlie is expected to be one of NRHEG’s top returning golfers this season. He shot a 94 at the sub-section meet last year.

Macoy Schwier johann, sophomore: As a freshman, Schwierjohann shot a 101 at the Gopher Conference meet and also is expected to be one of the Panthers’ top golfers this season.


Spencer Hanna: Hanna shot a 94 at the sub-section meet last season and was an all-confer-ence honorable mention after shooting a 44-47 91 at the Go-pher Conference tournament.

Sam Nafe: Nafe was another Panthers golfer who contributed last season.

KEEP YOUR EYE ON:Cole Lenort, sophomore:

Lenort is another returning golf-er from last year’s 15-10 team who has the potential to make an impact this year.

2013 OUTLOOK:After finishing 15-10 last

year, the Panthers are back with a lineup that boasts three sopho-mores among their top golfers. NRHEG didn’t have a single player compete past the sub-sec-tion meet last season. �is year, the team hopes to change that.

�e Panthers would like the team to advance to the Section 2AA Meet at New Prague Golf Course this season and “get an All Conference selection or two this year,” NRHEG coach Brad Root said. The Panthers have �ve returning letterwinners in Langlie, Lenort, Schwierjohann, Kelson Titus and Colton Ryg.

While the players have the golf skills, they need to develop the mental aspects of the game, Root said, which includes con-sistency and course manage-ment. Last year, NRHEG fin-ished ��h in the conference and sixth in the sub-section.

FROM THE COACH: “We need to move from

being practice players to tour-nament players. Making sure they are prepared for whatever weather conditions exist, as well as dealing with situations on the course will be a priority.” – Brad Root

FROM A PLAYER: “We’re kind of a young team,

so I want us to do our best and hopefully we get pretty far. We’ll try our hardest.” – Jake Langlie, sophomore

GIRLS KEY NAMES:Maddy Reed, senior: Reed

was the lone Panthers golfer competing at last year’s Sec-tion 2AA meet, a�er advancing with a 112 at sub-sections, but the then-junior just missed the cut to advance to state in Jordan last season. She earned all-con-ference honorable mention last season.

Brina Bergland, senior: One of eight returning starters from last season, Bergland shot a 52-57 109 at the Gopher Confer-ence tournament, �nishing in ninth place and just missing a spot as an all-conference honor-able mention.


Lexi Wayne: Wayne, a senior last year, shot a 125 at the sub-section meet in Mankato last sea-son for the Panthers, who did not advance.

Michaela Hansen: Hansen, also a senior, was another Pan-thers golfer who contributed last season.

KEEP YOUR EYE ON:Brenna Hagen, senior: Hagen,

among �ve other seniors this sea-son, is expected to make an im-pact again this year. She shot a 129 at last year’s sub-section meet.

2013 OUTLOOK:With several returning golfers,

four of them seniors, the Panthers

will look to improve on last sea-son’s 14-6 record and third-place �nish in the Gopher Conference. Back again is Maddy Reed, one of the team’s top golfers, who just missed a shot at an individual state berth last season. Reed earned an all-conference honorable mention nod a�er shooting a 106 and tak-ing eighth overall at the Gopher Conference meet.

This season, the girls team is expected to take aggressive shots and big risks, Root said. �e favorite in the conference is United South Central; in the sub-section, it’s Waseca. How-ever, Root thinks NRHEG can �nish second in both the Gopher Conference and the sub-section.

Also, making sure the Pan-thers are prepared to deal with weather conditions and situa-

tions that arise on the course this season will be a priority, Root said.

Outside of Reed, returning starters include Brenna Hagen, Brina Bergland, Liz Eder, Jessica Nafe and Riley Koziolek. Reed, Hagen, Bergland and Eder are the teams four seniors.

FROM THE COACH: “We hope we have some

all-conference honors as well as advancement to the section tournament.” – Brad Root

FROM A PLAYER: “I think that maybe we’ll do

better, but just kind of going out there and having fun.” – Maddy Reed, senior

BOYS KEY NAMES:Josh Kummerfeldt , ju-

nior: Kummerfeldt returns to the course as one of Waseca’s top golfers this season. Kum-merfeldt made All-South Cen-tral Conference last season by shooting a 79 at the conference meet in St. James. At state last season, he finished with a two-day score of 168 (71st place).


Austin Snow: Austin Snow’s stellar play last season helped spur Waseca to championships in the conference, sub-section and section, as well as the team’s first state berth since the 2009 season. Snow stepped up his game at state, too, shooting a 149 and finishing in a tie for seventh place overall.

M itc h D e Kr u i f : Whe n Snow wasn’t leading the Blue-jays, DeKruif was. His solid season culminated with a med-aling 74 at the Section 2AA meet in New Prague. He shot a 167 in the state tournament and finished in 70th place.

KEEP YOUR EYE ON:

Jordan Altman, junior : Altman was part of last year’s South Central Conference and Section 2AA champion team. He finished 86th, tied for last place, at the Class AA meet.

2013 OUTLOOKLast season will be hard to

top. Led by stellar seniors Aus-tin Snow and Mitch DeKruif, Waseca won the South Central Conference, cruised through the sub-section and then won the Section 2AA meet to earn its first state berth since the 2009 season (Waseca finished in eighth place, last place, at state).

This season, Josh Kum-merfeldt and Jordan Altman will return to the course for the Bluejays with state tour-nament experience. Kummer-

feldt earned All-South Central Conference honors last season, while Altman is an up-and-coming player that Waseca coach Ted Hammond expects to contribute this season. Sev-eral sophomores also will vie for varsity positions this sea-son, Hammond said.

With the entire South Cen-tral Conference except for St. James sharing a spot in the sub-section with Waseca, whichever team emerges as the conference champion will likely be the sub-section fa-vorite, too, Hammond said. Early on, that’s shaping up to be New Ulm and Fairmont, he said. Waseca also hopes to be in the mix.

FROM THE COACH: “We’d like to do well at

sub-sections, and we do play North Links (near Mankato) before the sub-section, so we get a chance to get a taste of the course before the tournament.” – Ted Hammond

FROM A PLAYER: “Right now I’m going into

the season with almost no ex-pectation, because with losing so many players from last year, you can’t go in with really high expectations like we did last year, expecting to get to state. This year, we want to contend like we did, but get better each day.” – Josh Kummerfeldt, ju-nior

WASECA BOYS AND GIRLS GOLFGIRLS KEY NAMES:

Melissa Bartz, senior: Bartz was one of Waseca’s top golfers last season, earning All-South Central Conference honors and making a trip to the state tournament. She shot a 188 at state and �nished in 55th place overall.

McKenzie Filzen, senior: Fil-zen �nished her season by shoot-ing a solid 95, the second-best score on the team behind Bartz’s state-qualifying 90, at the Section 2AA meet last year. She’ll return looking to make an impact this season.


Rachel Hoverstad: Hoverstad, along with Bartz, was among the top golfers on the team last sea-son. Hoverstad shot a 91 and was the medalist at the South Central Conference meet to earn all-con-ference honors last season.

KEEP YOUR EYE ON:Corinne Dennis, junior: Den-

nis shot a 104 at the Section 2AA South meet last season. She’s one of four returning starters for the girls team.

Loral I Barrie, senior: Barrie is another returning starter on the team who will look to contribute again this season.

2013 OUTLOOK:Fairmont is the defending

South Central Conference cham-pions, and, after finishing third last year, Waseca is hoping to

make a run for the title this sea-son.

Gone is Rachel Hoverstad, one of Waseca’s top golfers and the medalist (91) at the South Central Conference meet in St. James last season, who graduated last year. �e Bluejays have their all-around best golfer, Melissa Bartz, return-ing after she, too, earned All-South Central Conference honors (she shot a 92) and competed at the Class AA State Tournament (she �nished in 55th place).

Bartz is one of four returning starters – McKenzie Filzen, Cor-rine Dennis and Loral I Barrie are the others – this season. Aside from making a run at the confer-ence title, the Bluejays hope to be in the mix come section time. With the entire South Central Conference except for St. James in the Section 2AA South sub-section, the team that emerges as the conference champion is

likely to be sub-section favorite, too, Waseca coach Ted Hammond said. Waseca �nished fourth at the section meet last season.

FROM THE COACH: “If the girls improve like I

think they’re going to improve, they’re going to challenge. I think they’ll challenge for the confer-ence and they’ll challenge for the sub-section.” – Ted Hammond

FROM A PLAYER: “If we work as hard as we did

last year and if the girls practiced over the summer, I think we’ll be OK.” – Melissa Bartz

WASECA BOYS TENNISKEY NAMES:

John Lewer, junior: Lewer returns as one of the top players from last season’s team, which finished runner-up in the South Central Conference and in Section 1A. Lewer went 15-8 at No. 2 singles and ended his sophomore season with a 4-1 conference record.

Josh Kimball, junior: Kimball, along with team-mate Josh Metzdorff, played No. 1 doubles last sea-son and went 13-11 overall and 4-1 in South Central Conference play. Kimball and Lewer are captains this season for the Bluejays, which boasts a roster full of juniors and other underclassmen.

GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN:Jacob Denn: Denn, a senior last season, held down

the No. 1 singles spot for Waseca by finishing 12-8 and 4-1 in South Central Conference matchups. He was last year’s Team MVP.

Matt Metzdorff: Metzdorff was the only other se-nior on last year’s squad. He went 17-7 at No. 3 singles and held an unblemished 5-0 South Central Conference record last season.

KEEP YOUR EYE ON:Josh Metzdorff, junior: Metzdorff, playing along-

side doubles partner Kimball last season, went 13-11 and 4-1 in the South Central Conference at No. 2 doubles.

Ben Johnson, junior: Johnson finished above .500 (12-10, 3-2 South Central Conference) as a sophomore last season.

2013 OUTLOOK:For another year, Waseca hopes to vie for the South

Central Conference and Section 1A titles. Last season, the Bluejays got used to being the runners-up: They finished with a 4-1 record in the South Central Con-ference behind champion St. Peter; six of the seven individuals and doubles teams competing at the South Central Conference Tournament finished in second place; and Waseca lost to Rochester Lourdes in the finals of the Section 1A Team Tournament.

Gone are seniors Jacob Denn (12-8 at No. 1 singles) and Matt Metzdorff (17-7 at No. 3 singles), but the Bluejays are back this year with five returning starters, including captains John Lewer (15-8 at No. 2 singles) and Josh Kimball (13-11 at No. 1 doubles), who played last season with doubles partner Josh Metzdorff. In total, Waseca returns nine letterwinners.

With St. Peter graduating five of its 10 players from last year’s team, the conference title is up for grabs. Rochester Lourdes, which lost to Breck 4-3 in the Class A Championship match, is again the Section 1A favorite (despite losing three of its top four players), but the Bluejays hope to battle the Eagles again for the section title. The Bluejays will see Lourdes twice in tournament action before playing the Eagles in a dual match late in the season.

FROM THE COACH: “I’m looking for guys that can keep the ball in play

consistently in singles and doubles teams that can win.” – Kyle Collins

FROM A PLAYER: “I think we have a really good shot at winning SCC

this year, and then we also want to make it to sec-tion finals again this year, like we did last year. We’ll see what we can do against Lourdes because they’re always good.” – Josh Kimball, junior

BY THE NUMBERS:64 – Combined number of wins last year for re-

turning starters this season2 – Seniors lost from last season
