Wisconsin Rapids Area Sports

@TravisBOUND Had many great convos over the years the years there.... I remember getting involved my senior year in 2005, and its sad that its gone. WR_88.

It appears that the corporate overlords allowed the WSN Message Board to expire and it has been disabled. When WSN first started more than 20 years ago (pre-social media), it was THE place to discuss, debate, and even talk a little trash about high school sports. The message board was a huge driver of the early growth of WSN. While activity dropped off over the years, first with the introduction of newspaper comments sections and later with social media, it was still home to a dedicated group of people who shared information & discussed not only high school sports, but the Brewers, Badgers, & Packers as well. So many incredible connections were made over the years. I've gotten to know many of them of the message board posters, and consider several friends. It is certainly another sad chapter in the dismantling of what was built at WSN.

@WisBBYearbook Proud, small-town history there.

Coloma High School's final boys basketball game took place on Feb. 21, 1946 when it dropped a 24-23 decision to Hancock in a district consolation contest. Coloma is now part of the Westfield district.

@MarquesEversoll Darn... well, Thanks! Hope they're Green Package games.... wish the 49ers were not on opening weekend of deer season.

@AreaRapids I asked & haven’t heard. It’s different every year. Sometimes I get the full home schedule with times, other years it’s one-by-one. All I’ve heard were these few dates so far.

Just heard a few dates on the #Packers schedule, per source: vs. #Colts 9/15 at #Jaguars 10/27 vs. #Texans 11/3 vs. #49ers 11/24

@WisBBYearbook Is he taking the job at Haddonfield, Illinois, now?

Michael Myers has stepped down as the varsity boys' basketball coach at Northwood High School. #wisbb

@WisBBYearbook Just seems like yesterday he won No. 300 at the Cranberry Classic.

Half: Assumption 26 Lourdes 26. Knights with fast 3's to end half. #wisgb

Ten three-point baskets by Wisconsin Rapids Lincoln helps the Red Raiders open a 36-26 lead over Ellsworth at half. Senior Traiden Clary with 11 points and senior Keaton Broeren with nine for Lincoln. #wisbb

Wisconsin Rapids Lincoln with seven three-point baskets in under 11 minutes. Red Raiders lead Ellsworth 23-15. #wisbb

@Bill_Michaels @packers I'd say average to slightly above average. You can't hit on every pick, but he has had some pretty darn good ones, especially on defense.

Looking at the talent that's been acquired over the last 6 years, how would you grade @Packers GM Brian Gutekunst?
