TOP 1% IN THE NATION!!! CONGRATS TO SADIE GROSKRUETZ ON HER AMERICAN VISIONS AWARD NOMINATION! Not only did Sadie earn a Gold Key in the Scholastic Art & Writing Awards, but her piece, Mr. Fluff Butt, has also been nominated for the National Scholastic American Visions Award—placing her in the top 1% of submissions nationwide! From Sadie’s artist statement: "I made this giant textured monster because I was in an art museum and was a little irritated that I couldn't physically touch and interact with any of the art. I wanted this to be a piece that promoted audience interaction with art. I want people to feel all the textures and fabrics and hopefully appreciate it with more than one sense. There is a 'Please Touch Me!' sign that goes with this piece, which ironically, the Museum chose not to include with the displayed piece." Each year, Wisconsin Regional judges select just five Gold Key winners for the prestigious American Visions Award. Out of approximately 2,500 submissions, Sadie’s work is one of them. Only 250 nominees nationwide—an incredible honor! Way to go, Sadie!

KMMO - YOUR 2025 GROUNDHOG TOURNAMENT CHAMPIONS! Neither Sun Prairie, nor KMMO scored in the first period, but the second and third saw a flurry of pucks hit the back of the net. KMMO was on the power play for almost the entire second period as Sun Prairie accrued consecutive penalties. Ultimately, this penalty problem was Sun Prairie's undoing. KMMO senior goalie Lukas Sears was unshakeable as he saved all 18 of the shots fired his way to lead KMMO to a 3-0 win and the Groundhog Tournament title! Great win KMMO!!! Shoutout to Roger Olson for the photos and Sun Prairie for hosting the Groundhog Tournament for the past 24 years!
