Observations:
Reedsburg really impressed and upset Waunakee to win Regionals.
Beaver Dam really impressed finishing 2nd in regionals behind Stoughton
Did Portage run into quarantining issues? Surprised to see only 4 athletes
Fort & Milton got things sorted out at regionals finishing in front of tough Janesville squads and Elkhorn
Notable Returners Missing Royce Nilo (Milton) Beckett (Portage) Who am I missing?

[Sudden Death]

Great stuff thanks for doing this...

[gundyboo]

Reedsburg did not avenge a dual loss to Baraboo, but they did look good and have had remarkable numbers and depth for about the 3rd year in a row.

[Lunatic Fringe]

I should have double checked before I posted that, my memory failed me.  You were right gundyboo.   Reedsburg won 37-35

Sectionals Observations:
Once again the conference flexed its muscle showing why it’s one of the toughest in the state.
Waunakee showed up with a chip on their shoulder after finishing behind Reedsburg last week and qualified for team state. 
The talk around Sinclair & Sarbacker is justified.  Messenbrink & Showalter were taken for a run.

It was definitely interesting having 14/15 Badger conference schools in the same sectional. Conference team order finishes.  (I think the conference tournament would have looked similar.)

Good Luck to Stoughton and Waunakee at Team State!

[Sudden Death]

I think Stoughton will beat Kaukauna in the Team State Finals. Should be a very good battle though...

[Lunatic Fringe]

Well Stoughton couldn't quite pull off the 4peat.

However, I'm not sure what's more impressive.  Kaukauna beating Stoughton or Stoughton making the Team State Finals for 7 straight years.

Also, kudos to Waunakee for making the State Semifinals.
