By JIM LUTGENS Editor/Publisher With longtime starting pitcher Jade Schultz sidelined for the season with knee injuries, the NRHEG softball team knew it would have to pick it up at least one notch to compete this spring. The Panthers did it in the season opener against Janesville-Waldorf-Pemberton Monday, April 8, defeating the Bulldogs 9-4 in a Gopher Conference game. “The girls played well for the first day out,” said coach Wendy Schultz. “We still have plenty of things we’ll be trying to improve upon throughout the season.” Ninth-grader Anna Lundberg pitched a strong game for NRHEG, allowing three earned runs on six hits, with eight strikeouts and three walks.

Panthers fall to JWP in five inningsBy JIM LUTGENS Editor/Publisher The NRHEG baseball team is coming off a conference championship season in which they graduated many players. The inexperience of the new squad showed in the season opener last Monday, April 8 as the Panthers lost 12-2 in five innings to JWP at New Richland’s Legion Field. The Panthers collected just two hits, one apiece by Brad Claycomb and Nic Mangskau. Claycomb had one RBI and a stolen base. Johnny White drove in the other run while walking once. Spencer Tollefson drew a pair of walks. Mangskau, a senior righthander, started on the mound for the Panthers and went four innings, giving up five runs (two earned), on six hits, striking out three and walking two.

By JIM LUTGENS Editor/Publisher The accolades keep piling up for the state champion NRHEG girls’ basketball team. A week after Carlie Wagner was featured on the pages of Sports Illustrated, Panthers head coach John Schultz learned he was voted Minnesota Class AA Coach of the Year. In humble fashion, Schultz defelected much of the credit for the award. “It's a great honor being voted in by my peers,” he said. “Of course most of the credit goes to my assistant coaches and players. If they don't buy into my crazy ideas, nothing works!”
