The first game of the season brought Class 3A No. 13th Dubuque Hempstead (2-0) to Decorah (0-1) to face a revamped Decorah girls’ soccer team who graduated eight starters from a year ago, falling 5-0, Thursday at home.

The Vikings held their own for the majority of the first half allowing only one penalty-kick goal against Hempstead’s high-powered attack. The second half was a different story as the Vikes tired allowing Hempstead to dominate possession. When the dust cleared, Hempstead had scored an additional four goals in the second half for the final margin of victory.

Decorah was unable to get a shot on the goal, while Clara Hjelle stood solid with 25 saves as goalie.

“My only hope is that this loss turned up the fire in our girls. I am hopeful they can recommit themselves to the work necessary to make us more competitive,” said Coach Loran Hendrickson.

The Vikings will be back on their home pitch Thursday, April 4, as Decorah hosts North Fayette Valley at 5 p.m.

Looking for some wins; DHS girls’ soccer has high hopes The Decorah girls’ soccer team is focused this season as the Vikings are looking to transfer hard work and talent into a winning mark for 2024.

Leading the way is head coach Loran Hendrickson who is in his sixth season at the helm of the program.

Coming up short With a strong group of 14 returning letter winners, the Vikes struggled to gel on the pitch, finishing with a 6-9 record.

Decorah opened the postseason strong against West Delaware with a 10-0 victory

in Class 1A Region 8. Kylie O’Hara and Grace Neal scored hat tricks for the Vikes to lead the way. However, 10th-ranked Hudson bounced Decorah out of the running to state in overtime, 1-0, in the quarterfinal.

Graduating from that squad were Mya Redenius, Ellen Rooney, Grace Neal, Ella Grouws, Madison Heim, Thea Schissel, Ada Lovelace, Isabella Bishop, Kylie O’Hara and Amelia Dugger.

Ready for the pitch Having lost eight starters to graduation, the Vikings have

some big shoes to fill, but there are some key returnees ready to lead the youth. Among those Coach Hendrickson is looking to set an example are Gabrielle Dixon, Elayna Hook, Sara Johanningmeier, Addison LukesSmith, Amelia Wadsworth, Clara Hjelle, Nora Lesmeister and Ana Simon.

The veterans will be joined on varsity by seniors Lydia Monreal-Rice, Abbie Volkosky; juniors Ellie Rolfs, Greta Jones, Savannah O’Reilly, Kera Walter; and sophomores Elsa Christman and Lily Swenson.

“There are some midfielders I expect to blossom as they are given more playing time this year,” the coach said. “I also hope to see development from our inside defense and goalkeeping. The success of the season depends on the amount and pace of improvement. There could be significant movement of personnel between varsity and JV, depending on who can grab the opportunity and run with it.”

Competition strong for Viking boys’ varsity line-up

Ready for the courts this season for the Decorah boys’ tennis team are (front, l-r) Keagan Steines, Oskar Swanson, Andrew Kruger, Seth Bolson, Aidan Nalean-Carlson, Lucas Arendt, Caden Branum, Elliot Berland, Tyler Shaw; (middle row) Scott Herrmann, Brett Wilker, Tristan Hunter, Jack Hammel, Joey McFarlane, Noah Potvin, Dom Smith, Steven Munoz, Keaton Nalean-Carlson, Matt Anderson, Caleb Ulring; (back row) William Robinson, Patrick Gallagher, Liam Chamberlain, Gabriel Hiner, Aitor Cuevas, Ansel Kowitz, Beau Newhouse, Alex McGohan, Adam Walter, Caleb Krieg, Doug Bentley. Not pictured is Colin Thompson. (Photo courtesy of Tami Bohr) A year removed from a fourth-place finish at state, the Decorah boys’ tennis team has a few holes to fill and many athletes to choose from this spring.

With the doubles state runner-up duo and members of the fourth-place team graduated, it’s time for a new list of Vikings to continue the storied tradition of success.

Putting the squad together is head coach Matt Anderson who is entering his third season at the helm. He will be assisted by Brett Wilker, Scott Herrmann and Caleb Ulring.

A big finish The Vikes were stacked for success to start the season last year, with nearly the entire lineup still intact with six returning letter winners. The veterans

showcased time and again what they could do, finishing with a 15-2 dual record on the courts.

When the postseason arrived, Decorah began with its fourth-straight NEIC/WaMac conference title. Then it was on to district action, which turned into a two-day competition due to rain showers. The Vikings No. 1 player, Caden Branum punched his second ticket to the state tournament with the doubles team of Daniel Skrade and Landon Baker joining him.

The season ended as one for the record books as Branum became the first Decorah player to ever win a title. Additionally, Skrade and Baker was the first doubles team since 1999 to reach the finals, eventually taking second in Class 1A. Decorah went on to win

three substate matches over Hampton-Dumont-CAL, Osage and Aplington-Parkersburg to punch a ticket to the team state tournament. Seeded third, the Vikes participated in the Class 1A state tournament defeating Boone in the first round. In round two Decorah dropped the match to the eventual champions Cedar Rapids Xavier Saints.

In the match for third, Decorah faced a familiar foe in Dubuque Wahlert and came up short.

The team was led by its strong senior class of Landon Baker, Carter Kowitz, Michael Njus and Daniel Skrade.

Ready for 2024 Coach Anderson is far from starting from scratch with eight letter winners. At the top of the list is returning state champion Caden Branum. Joining the senior will be those who were members of the fourth-place team of Seth Bolson, Gabriel Hiner, Aidan Nalean-Carlson, Liam Chamberlain and Keaton Nalean-Carlson.

Also vying for a varsity spot are seniors Lucas Arendt, Alex McGohan, Adam Walter, Doug Bentley; juniors Beau Newhouse, Aitor Cuevas, Ansel Kowitz, Andrew Kruger, Dom Smith, Caleb Krieg, Stephen Munoz; sophomores William Robinson, Patrick Gallagher; and freshmen Tristan Hunter, Eliot Berland, Joseph McFarlane, Tyler Shaw, Colin Thomp-

son, Noah Potvin, Oskar Swanson, John Hammel and Keagen Steines.

Looking around Coach Anderson sees Waverly-Shell Rock and Aplington-Parkersburg to be the early favorites in the conference as both return experienced, strong teams.

“They will provide a good gauge for us in April heading into state-level competition,” he added. “We should be in the mix with lots of experience back and a few newcomers with the inside track to the varsity line-up, but competition has been strong the first few weeks of practice.”

Warrior girls aiming for big things on the course There is a goal in place for the South Winn girls’ golf team – make it to state.

With all of its varsity members returning from last year’s regional champion squad, the Warriors are ready for another successful year.

Coaching the girls is Glenna Munuswamy for her sixth sea-

son.

Just short With no seniors on its roster, the Warriors were set to make a run in 2023. At the top of the short list was junior Katrina Hageman, a two-time letter winner who had been the UIC runner-up in 2022. Joining her

were Brooke Steffans, Elizabeth Bohr and Annie Ondrashek.

Utilizing the solid team base, South Winn had the UIC individual champion, two other allUIC honorees and finished third as a team. Carding a 93, Hageman won the title while Ondrashek finished in a three-way tie for 15th with a 113. Others on

the course were Steffans (117), Paige Jaster (123), Julia Carnesi (127) and Avery Luzum (144).

A week later, the Warriors closed out the 2023 campaign with a fourth-place finish at the first regional in Nashua. South Winn put up a total of 464, one stroke shy of advancing to second regional action. Jas-

ter paced SW with a 108 with Steffans firing a 113. Carnesi came through with a 120 with Ondrashek rounding out the Warrior scorecard with a 123.

Also on the course were Luzum (136) and Hageman (137).

Teeing off as members of the South Winn girls’ golf team in 2024 will be (front, l-r) Ella Thies, Addison Timp, Rachel Meyer, Kendra Elsbernd, Julia Carnesi, Grace Zweibohmer; (middle row) Katrina Hageman, Brooke Steffans, Loleta Ryan, Annie Ondrashek, Paige Jaster, Hannah Pahl; (back row) Aubrey Hageman, Bailee Frana, Chloe Wiltgen, Delaney Steffans, Hailey Hageman, Ellie Knutson and Avery Luzum.

Stacked Right behind the senior contingent of Ondrashek, Steffans, Hageman and Jaster is a solid group of juniors who will be competing to be in the varsity rotation this year. Among those juniors are Bohr, Carnesi and Luzum.

“The competition will push everyone on the team to focus on constant improvement,” said Coach Munuswamy. “We have some pretty big goals for ourselves this year. There’s a ton of experience on this year’s roster. In a mental game, such as golf, this can be the determining

factor in meets and postseason play.”

In a program that is attracting new golfers, the Warriors boast 19 on its roster that is filled out with seniors Kendra Elsbernd, Rachel Meyer, Hannah Pahl, Loleta Ryan; juniors Bailee Frana, Aubrey Hageman, Ellie Knutson, Grace Zweibohmer; sophomores Ella Theis, Addison Timp; and freshmen Hailey Hageman, Delaney Steffans and Chloe Wiltgen.

“We have golfers who are committed to learning the game and have already shown exceptional progress,” said Coach Munuswamy. “We can’t wait to see what this season brings for them. We know that we have a large group of senior girls and it is going to be important to develop players for next season.”

The Warriors feature five returning letter winners who started for the varsity last season.

Putting the team together for his seventh season is Mike Wenthold.

Flashback to 2023 Three letter winners set the stage for a 7-6 season record for the Warriors with a host of promising freshman.

It all came together at the Upper Iowa Conference meet with South Winn finishing the day with 346 strokes in second place, putting four linksters on the all-conference list. In fifth, junior Jordan Baumler carded an 83, with senior Carson Wenthold the next-best in 11th with an 86. Freshmen Carson Streeter (88) and Carver Wenthold (89) also earned AllUIC honors, finishing 14th and 15th. Also on the course were Braiden Todd (96) and Jackson Goltz (106).

The Warriors punched a ticket to the district meet with a third-place finish at sectionals.

As a team, they fired a 332.

Shooting a career-low, Carson Wenthold finished fifth overall.

South Winn got some strong

performances from Todd (81) and Baumler (83). Streeter rounded out the scorecard with an 89. Carver Wenthold came through with a 97, with Goltz touring the course for a 98.

The season ended at the district meet with the Warriors finishing with 333 strokes in eighth place in a district the was separated by 37 strokes from top to bottom. Baumler had an incredible day on the links with a 77 to lead South Winn with Streeter firing an 83.

Others on the greens were Carson Wenthold (86), Todd (87), Carver Wenthold (96) and Goltz (100).

A solid foundation The Warriors will have lots of veteran experience stepping on the greens this spring. At the top of the list Baumler, who is a senior, along with Goltz, now a junior. Joining the ranks are sophomores Braiden Todd, Carson Streeter and Carver Wenthold.

Others on the roster include seniors Brady Lensing and Aiden Rothmeyer; juniors Nolan Sabelka and Carson Straube; sophomores Eli Higgins, Cale Kleppe, Brandon Kriener, Toa Ryan, Matson Winings and Jamison Zweibohmer; and freshmen Damian Botello-Lara,

Kaden Cook, Landon Hemesath, Landon Humpal, Vili Ryan, Gavin Thuente and Ray Zweibohmer.

“We have a lot of kids who have the potential to go low,” said Coach Wenthold.

“Our guys worked hard in the off-season and improved a lot.

I expect that we will have as many as 10 players competing for our six varsity spots. The sky is the limit for this squad.

Getting consistent play will be a big deal, making sure that we are playing our best at the

end of the season. I am looking forward to working with this squad.

Last season the Warriors started the season a little slow and Coach Wenthold hopes for a different one this year as South Winn battles with MFL MarMac and Clayton Ridge for the Upper Iowa Conference title come May. “I think it’s really important we get off to a good start,” added the coach. “If we can start well, then improve we can be very successful.”

(Photos courtesy of Tammy Vrzak) Four seniors will propel the Turkey Valley boys’ golf team this season. The Trojans return six athletes back with a strokes average under 60 from 2023.

Helping the squad lower its score is head coach John Reicks who has been with the program for 13 years.

Big talent The Trojans of 2023 were full of experience and talent, led by four returning letter winners — Calvin Bodensteiner, Caleb Kurtenbach, Oliver Schmitt and Braylen Byrne. Throughout the season, Turkey Valley put together a 3-8 dual meet record.

At the conference meet in May, the Trojans finished fifth with a 367-stroke total. Schmitt and Bodensteiner led way for TV. With an 18-hole round total of 85, Schmitt earned his second all-UIC honor of his career with a tie for eighth-place, while Bodensteiner carded an 89 to finish 15th. Also counting for the

Trojans were Kurtenbach (96) and Carson Busta (97). Others on the course for the red and white were Garrett Dietzenbach (113) and Byrne (119).

Finishing third with 365 strokes at the sectional meet, Turkey Valley grabbed a district bid for the first time in five years.

Kurtenbach played his best golf of the season, winning a onehole playoff to be crowned the sectional title with an 86. Other scores were Schmitt (91), Bodensteiner (92), Busta (96), Dietzenbach (104) and Byrne (115).

The season came to an end at the district meet in Mason City with the Trojans finishing seventh with a 368. Schmitt finished the highest for Turkey Valley in 10th with an 82, four strokes from a state berth. Kurtenbach carded an 88, tying for 20th place. Also, on the course for the Trojans were Bodensteiner (94), Busta (104), Dietzenbach (110) and Byrne (113).

“The guys need to work on chipping and putting with consistency from tee to green,” noted Coach Reicks about his concerns for the team.

Step up It will be a battle in the league for the top spot in the Upper Iowa Conference. Coach Reicks sees MFL MarMac, North Fayette Valley, South Winn and Clayton Ridge as having the best chances to win the crown.

With the courses drying out and the season’s first meet just around the corner, Coach Reicks is anxious to get the squad on the greens and see the progress they can make.

“We are looking to be improved from a year ago with a good group of veterans blended with newcomers with the need for No. 4-6 golfers allowing us to be competitive across our tough schedule,” concluded the veteran coach.

Veteran golfers to lead Trojan girls squad in 2024

The Trojans feature a squad made up of nine returning letter winners looking to make a mark on the Upper Iowa Conference.

Putting the team together is head coach John Reicks, who has been the leader of the team for 13 seasons.

In 2023 The Trojans of 2023 had five experienced golfers, including one senior from the season before. Mariah Throndson who had been the No. 2 golfer in 2022 returned with No. 3 Morgan Vsetecka and senior Abby Schmitt, Sofia Rivera and Kaitlyn Schroeder.

It was tough going for the Trojans as the girls went 2-7

in the Upper Iowa Conference and finished sixth at the league tournament with a 483. Freshman Annika Bodensteiner was named to the all-UIC list for shooting a 113, good for 15th.

Throndson also earned all-conference honors in 16th with a 114. Other results included Halle Weber (126), Vsetecka (130), Rivera (135) and Schmitt (142).

The Trojans ended the season a week later at the Class 1A regional, shooting a 500 to finish fifth. Weber led the way with her season-low score of 122. Rivera and Throndson each carded 125s, while Vsetecka came through with a 128.

Bodensteiner fired a 130 while Schmitt rounded out the scorecard with a 148.

Close to the same One major bonus for the Tro-

jans this year is just Schmitt graduated off last year’s team.

In fact, the Trojans feature just two seniors among their nine letter winners.

At the top of the list is A. Bodensteiner who averaged 59.6 strokes per nine holes as a freshman in 2023. Throndson is second with an average of 62.5, while Rivera is third with a 64.6 average. Rounding out the squad are Weber (65.3), Karstyn Lukes (66.3), Vsetecka (67.3), Brooklyn Kuennen (72.8), Emma Brincks (75.7) and Kaitlyn Schroeder (67.6).

Joining the ranks are junior newcomer Delaney Busta and freshmen Kendall Kuennan and Ellaney Bodensteiner.

“This is a cohesive group that want to do well,” said Coach Reicks. “We will need two girls to settle in as our No. 1 and 2

golfers on a meet-to-meet basis to succeed. We are excited to begin our season and the weather looks like it may cooperate to get out on the course earlier than usual.”

It will yet again be a tough year in the conference with several teams fighting for the crown. Coach Reicks believes North Fayette Valley, South Winn, MFL MarMac and Clayton Ridge are the teams with best shot to be at the top. However, anything can happen between then and now as the Trojans aim to be in the top half of the UIC. “We need to improve our putting and short game on and around the greens to be competitive,” noted Coach Reicks.

“This is a good group of girls that enjoy the game and want to do well.”

Coming back While four seniors graduated, the core group from last year’s district squad are back for 2024 including Schmitt who averaged 42.9 strokes per nine holes as a junior. Along his side will be Kurtenbach with a 46.1 average. Byrne wrapped up his junior season with a 57.5 average, while Calen Franzen is back having averaged 58.0 a year ago with Bode Balk returning with a 61.3 average.

Combine the senior leadership of the returning letter winners with a nucleus of sophomores who played a lot of golf over the summer and four promising freshman and the 2024 season looks bright for the Trojans.

Filling out the roster are JD Kruse, Logan Busta, Wyatt Maklenburg, Colton Kurtenbach, Lucas Jackson, Tucker Reicks, Nicholas Bernhard, Brady Blong, Treyton Franzen, Cale Langreck and Graham Schmitt.
