The race is on for college basketball’s top brother combination.  According to Marquette men’s basketball coach Steve Wojciechowski, Sam and Joey Hauser will transfer from the program and look to play elsewhere.

In three seasons with Marquette, Sam Hauser has started 97 of 101 games and averaged 12.7 points and 6.0 rebounds a game.

Joey Hauser started 31 of 34 games in his first season with the team and averaged 9.8 points and 5.3 rebounds a game.

As a junior last season, Sam Hauser was a second-team all-Big East selection and averaged 15.1 points.

The two brothers played together for two seasons at Stevens Point Area Senior High School, leading the Panthers to a pair of WIAA state titles.

Wisconsin missed on both players the first time around.  Can they find a way to land both players this time?

WIAA Board approves Spring Baseball extension

By

The WIAA‘s Board of Control ratified an agreement with the Appleton Baseball Club, Inc., that extends the use of Neuroscience Group Field at Fox Cities Stadium for the State Spring Baseball Tournament through 2028.

The State Spring Baseball Tournament has called Fox Cities Stadium its home since 1998.  The tournament has attracted an average attendance of 12,500 the past 11 years.  In addition, the 20 years the tournament has been held at Fox Cities Stadium represent the 20 largest attendance marks in the history of the event.

The extension will give Fox Cities Stadium the distinction of hosting State spring baseball for the greatest length of time since the tournament’s inception in 1948.  Wausau hosted the tournament for 25 years from 1973-1997.

Fox Cities Stadium was built-in 1995 and seats 5,900.
