Candle ordersĪre due to your block captains or to me at 32 Cambridge Drive by November 9th! Of displaying luminary candles throughout the entire Wellington You who are new to the neighborhood, please join our 30 year tradition Please read the attached luminary flyer here. We’ve got to mix and match a few things, but we’re excited with what we have for the next few years.I hope everyone is doing well! I can't believe the holiday season is fast approaching.

Our bench was good, our JV team had a good season and so did our 9th-grade. We’re not going to have the size, so we’re probably going to have to play differently, but we like what we have. “We have athleticism, shooters and we’ve got ball handlers. “We got a lot of guys coming back that have a lot of playing experience,” Hoelscher said. Hoelscher said the key to building off of this season is confidence. We’re definitely going to miss a lot of that leadership that goes with it.”Įven in defeat, coming back from down 20 to make it a two-point game at the end can create a lot of positive momentum heading into next season. They’re a fun group because they have intelligence, they love to compete and they brought that into practice. They can give each other crap every once in a while and they know how to take it. “They’re guys that like to joke around and have fun and play pretty loose. Seniors Carter Watnaas, Chayce Meyer, Tyler Hagen, Klimek and Mages are all set to graduate this spring. It was an absolutely fantastic season and even though it ended in a loss, it’s still a win in the books for the program.” We just hope, as coaches, you learn some basketball along the way. We learn from that, grow from it and we become better people. It’s the memories we make along the way with our teammates and in games. To win the Prairie Conference, to win 20-plus games, only have four losses and to play in the section final, it’s the journey, not the destination. “I know for these guys, it doesn’t feel like that, but eight seconds doesn’t determine what we’ve done for this longevity of time. He did a great job of playing his role and doing what we asked him to do.”ģ/ 3: Osakis' Stewart Jones puts up a jumper in a playoff game on March 15, 2022, against Annandale. For Kai to make those threes, it’s one of those momentum things and it gets the crowd and the bench going. “They were hounding Bauer (Klimek) the entire game, not making it easy for him. “In a game like this, you got to have those role players and those fringe guys make plays,” Matt Hoelscher said. The Silverstreaks made a comeback in large part to Mekai Hoelscher knocking down some big shots in the second half. “It carried us into the second half and also maybe deflated them a little bit.” “That momentum was huge,” Hoelscher said.

The Osakis comeback started with an 8-0 run to end the first half. The Cardinals have knocked the Silverstreaks out of the playoffs in back-to-back seasons, as they won last seasons’ playoff game 67-63. Our job is to put guys into a position to be successful and we as a coaching staff just didn’t do that in the last eight seconds.” It’s a play that we have but we didn’t get the first initial thing. We kind of talked about (during a timeout) option one, option two, but also maybe option 3. “We knew that if we got fouled, we were going to be shooting free throws. “If it wasn’t there, we were going to look to come off a ball screen real quick or just attack the rim,” Hoelscher said.
