If it's October, Central golf, tennis teams headed for state
Brookfield Central's girls golf coach Brian Scrobel and girls tennis coach Dave Steinbach pretty much block off the first two weeks of the month of October. Why? Because the Lady Lancers are heading to state once again this year.
You see, this is the 13th straight season the girls have gone to state for tennis and 7th in a row for the golfers.
Tosa QB's Lancers veer and conference tourneys
Despite the fact the Wauwatosa East (3-4) and West (0-7) football teams have a combined record of 3-11 with two games left to play, it's not the fault of the squad's respective junior quarterbacks that the locals are struggling.
On the contrary.
GMC grid title within Lancers' reach
Brookfield Central couldn't have drawn a nicer script for the final game of the football season.
Many people figured the Lancers chances of winning the title were slim and none when they dominated Marquette, but made five turnovers and lost, 10-6, a few weeks back. That left The Hilltoppers and West Allis Hale on top of the pack.
Brookfield lost two good people recently
It was a sad week for me because two people who were a part of my life because of youth and recreational baseball in Brookfield passed away — Wally O’Malley and Bonnie Martin.
If I had to pick one word to describe Wally O’Malley it would be a hard decision to choose between persistent and passionate. Wally, a man who was known largely for his ties to the Brookfield Bulldogs of the Land O’ Lakes baseball league, passed away Oct. 13.
